Document Summary

Ion channels- allow flow of ions in and out of cell. Many are specific to which ions will transport. Carriers- selectively move polar substances across membrane (transport) Uniport - carries one type of solute. Symport - carries two or more simultaneously in same direction. Antiport carries two or more solutes in opposite direction. Cell adhesion molecules help anchor cells together by bonding proteins or filaments together. Cell-identity markers mainly glycoproteins and glycolipids. Recognize other similar cells in tissue formation. Selectively permeable- only some substances can pass across membrane. Passive transport does not require energy. Moves from high concentration to low concentration. Active transport uses energy to get substances across membrane. Endo/exocytosis use of vesicles to transport substances in or out of cell. Transmembrane gradient- concentrations of a solute from one side of a membrane to another. Electrochemical gradient- electrical and chemical gradient (ions) Simple diffusion substances move freely across cell membrane (important for wastes and gas exchange)
