Active Transport is movement against a concentration gradient
Examples:
Nutrients: higher on the outside to lower on the inside
•
Waste: higher on the inside and lower on the outside
•
Passive transport works only when the concentration gradient is in the right direction.
Primary Active Transport
1.
Secondary Active Transport
2.
Two kinds of active transport:
Primary active transport uses ATP
Ex: sodium-potassium pump (NA+/K+ATPase) (3 Na: 2 K)
Helps maintain homeostasis
Take protons and pump them outside the cell, using active transport (using ATP)
1.
The proton pump generates an electrochemical gradient with high concentration of protons
outside the cell
2.
Antiporter uses the proton electrochemical gradient to move the other molecule. Brings the
proton back in and exchanges it for a different molecule
3.
Secondary Active Transport- indirectly uses ATP and is a 2 step process
Hypertonic- shrunk
•
Isotonic- Normal
•
Hypotonic- Swollen
•
Very hypotonic- Lysed
•
Cells use active transport to maintain homeostasis
All cells have some kind of plasma membrane
•
Eukaryotic will have organelles inside of them
•
Only difference is that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus
•
Prokaryotic cells have a nucleur region where DNA is located, but no actual nucleus
•
Review 5.3 Animal and Plant cells
•
Prokaryotic vs Eukaryotic
Each organelle has a membrane
•
Transport contents through vesicles
•
Sometimes organelles are physically connected, and some are interconnected through vesicles
•
Eukaryotic cells have an endomembrane system
Double membrane envelope that surrounds the nucleus, keeping everything together
•
Ex: MRNA exits the nucleus via nucleur pores
○
Has nuclear pores- protein complexes, allowing a passage of molecules form inside to outside
and vice versa.
•
Nucleur Envelope
2 components, smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum
•
Many proteins, including those that are destined for secreation, are synthesized by
ribosomes associated with the smooth endoplasmic reticulum
○
Rough contains rough endoplasmic reticulum
•
Smooth ER
•
Endoplasmic Reticulum

Document Summary
Active transport is movement against a concentration gradient. Passive transport works only when the concentration gradient is in the right direction. Nutrients: higher on the outside to lower on the inside. Waste: higher on the inside and lower on the outside. Ex: sodium-potassium pump (na+/k+atpase) (3 na: 2 k) Secondary active transport- indirectly uses atp and is a 2 step process. Take protons and pump them outside the cell, using active transport (using atp) The proton pump generates an electrochemical gradient with high concentration of protons outside the cell. Antiporter uses the proton electrochemical gradient to move the other molecule. Brings the proton back in and exchanges it for a different molecule. All cells have some kind of plasma membrane. Only difference is that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells have a nucleur region where dna is located, but no actual nucleus. Sometimes organelles are physically connected, and some are interconnected through vesicles.
