Document Summary
Module 1 slide notes: 200 cell types in the human body, based on specific variation in structure and function, despite variation, cells still share a common feature: plasma membrane, cytosol, nucleus, plasma membrane: A nad+ picks up a h+ and becomes nadh+ so two pyruvate creates two more. Lipid solubility of the substance: the surface area of the membrane, molecular weight (bigger the molecule, the slower it is, the distance through which diffusion takes place, passive diffusion on ions. Isotonic solution: constant cell volume: equal of non penetrating solution, hypotonic solutions: tend to swell the cell, water is coming inside, 200 mosm, hypertonic: ten to shrink the cell. Involves the total amount of solutes present: the difference between molarity vs osmolarity, molarity involves the concentration of the compound as a whole, nacl dissolves in water is separated into ions as na and cl.
