Document Summary

The traffic only occur through the membrane/ transport proteins. Glucose, for example, requires a transport protein to move into the cell. Simple diffusion- non polar and lipid- soluble substances. O2, co2, fa and some steroid hormones. Transport of glucose, amino acids, and ions. By carrier proteins or pass through protein channels. Certain polar molecules or very large molecules that can t pass through channel (sugars and amino acids) so they use carrier proteins. Channel protein ions/ water leakage channels gated channels. Occurs when the concentration of a solvent is different in opposite sides of the membrane. Osmolarity- total concentration of solute particles in a solution (10% glucose) When referring to the solution the cells in use: Isotonic- solutions with the same volume concentration as that of the cytosol. Hypotonic- solutions having lesser solute concentration than that of the cytosol. Hypertonic- solutions having greater solute concentration than that of the cytosol.
