    CHAPTER 1, INTRODUCTION: HOMEOSTASIS AND CELLULAR PHYSIOLOGY

    Homeostasis Enables the Body to Survive in Diverse Environments

    The Body Is an Ensemble of Functionally and Spatially Distinct Compartments

    Transport Processes Are Essential to Physiological Function

    Cellular Physiology Focuses on Membrane-Mediated Processes and on Muscle Function

    Summary

    Key Words and Concepts

    CHAPTER 2, DIFFUSION AND PERMEABILITY

    Diffusion Is the Migration of Molecules down a Concentration Gradient

    Fick’s First Law of Diffusion Summarizes our Intuitive Understanding of Diffusion

    Essential Aspects of Diffusion Are Revealed by Quantitative Examination of Random, Microscopic Movements of Molecules

    Fick’s First Law Can Be Used to Describe Diffusion across a Membrane Barrier

    Summary

    Key Words and Concepts

    Study Problems

    CHAPTER 3, OSMOTIC PRESSURE AND WATER MOVEMENT

    Osmosis Is the Transport of Solvent Driven by a Difference in Solute Concentration Across a Membrane That Is Impermeable to Solute

    Water Transport during Osmosis Leads to Changes in Volume

    Osmotic Pressure Drives the Net Transport of Water during Osmosis

    Osmotic Pressure and Hydrostatic Pressure Are Functionally Equivalent in Their Ability to Drive Water Movement Through a Membrane

    Only Impermeant Solutes Can Have Permanent Osmotic Effects

    Channel, Carrier, and Pump Proteins Mediate Transport across Biological Membranes

    Carriers Are Integral Membrane Proteins That Open to Only One Side of the Membrane at a Time

    Coupling the Transport of One Solute to the "Downhill" Transport of Another Solute Enables Carriers to Move the Cotransported or Countertransported Solute "Uphill" against an Electrochemical Gradient
