  76. Crenation
    • crinkling-up process is due to the fact that the 5% sodium chloride solutions is hypertonic to the cytosol of the red blood cell
    • water tends to leave the cells by osmosis
  77. Hemolysis
    • in a hypotonic solution the red blood cells "plump up" then they suddenly start to disappear
    • the red blood cells burst as the water floods into them, leaving "ghosts" in their wake."
  78. Mitotic Spindle
    acts as a scaffolding for the attachment and movement of the chromosomes during later mitotic stages
  79. Concentration gradient
    • difference in concentration
    • exits the net effect of this random molecular movement is that the molecules eventually become evenly distributed throughout the environment

    • organize the cytoskeleton and direct formation of the spindle formed by the centrioles during cell division
  83. Cytoskeletal Elements
    ramify throughout the cytoplasm, forming an internal scaffolding called the cytoskeleton that supports and moves substances within the cell
  84. Exocytosis

  85. Endocytosis
    movement into the cell
  86. Vesicular transport
    large particles and molecules are transported across the membrane
  87. Phagocytosis
    (cell eating) parts of the plasma membrane and cytoplasm expand and flow around a relatively large or solid material and engulf it
  88. Pinocytosis (fluid-phase endocytosis)
    the cell membrane sinks beneath the material to form a small vesicle which then pinches off into the cell interior.
  89. Receptor mediated Endocytosis
    is exquisitely selective and is used primarily for cellular uptake or specific molecules such as cholesterol, iron, and some hormones, and for transfer of substances from one side of the cell to the other
