Cell Transport Concept Map
Cell Membrane
Made of
Phospholipid Bilayer
Hydrophillic Head on edges
Hydrophobic Tail facing inside the membrane
cholesterol sticks tails together between phospholipids, making the liquid less fluid which is essential for the cell membrane.
Integral proteins
permanently attached on the Bilayer
Cross the cell membrane
Peripheral proteins
temporarily attached on the Bilayer
Reside on surface
Carbohydrates
Either on lipid or on protein: glycolipid or glycoprotein
cell to cell communication
Cell transport
passive
simple diffusion
Eg. Osmosis (water)
water moves from hypotonic (less solute) to hypertonic (more solute) solution through a semi-permeable membrane.
facilitated diffusion
with protein channels
active
Endocytosis
Pinocytosis
Cell drinking
Phagocytosis
Cell eating
Exocytosis
