Tonicity

how solute concentration affects shape of the cell - isotonic: equal inside to outside - hypotonic: outside solution has lower concentration than inside cell, water moves into cell, can cause osmotic lysis. - hypertonic: outside solution has higher concentration than inside cell, water moves out of cell

Microtubules, tubule proteins Functions: - support and shape - transporting substances inside cell - cell motility cytoplasmic streaming = movement of cytoplasm inside the cell along the cytoskeleton to mix cellular contents or change position of organelles

Facilitated diffusion

Diffusion that requires a transport protein: channel, transporter or permease - large, charged, polar molecules that can't pass through membrane

Movement of Flagella (Prokaryotes)

Flagella rotation causes taxis of bacteria: Run: rotate counterclockwise - move bacterium in straight line Tumble: rotate clockwise - change direction Bacteria display taxis in response to stimuli: Positive chemotaxis = move toward certain chemical Negative chemotaxis = move away from chemical Phototaxis = light Magnetotaxis = north pole

Cell reproduction (Prokaryotes)

binary fission = cell division 1. DNA is replicated and cell elongates 2. cell wall and plasma membrane begin to divide 3. cross walls form between the divided DNA 4. Daughter cells separate

Active transport processes

Uses ATP to move substances with low concentration to high concentration (against gradient) - active transport - group translocation

Active transport

Uses transport proteins that require ATP energy to "pump" substances against the concentration gradient

Group translocation

active transport where substance is chemically altered during transport to make it membrane impermeable so it cannot diffuse back

Meiosis

one diploid/2n parent cell divides to produce four haploid/1n daughter cells - all 4 cells are different from one another and haploid 1.
