The Plasma Membrane Section 7.2

Purpose: To act as a barrier between a cell and its environment To maintain homeostasis in a cell (a balance of conditions suitable for life)

How? The plasma membrane is selectively permeable, so it allows certain substances (like oxygen and nutrients) in, while getting rid of others (like waste.)

Summary Section 2 – pages 175-178 Plasma Membrane Oxygen Amino acids Water Glucose Wastes Wastes Carbon dioxide SELECTIVE PERMEABILITY Summary Section 2 – pages 175-178

What does it look like? It’s composed of a phospholipid bilayer Polar heads (phosphate) on the outside hydrophilic Nonpolar tails (fatty acids) on the inside hydrophobic Two layers of phospholipids back-to-back

Polar heads: with phosphate group face outward and stay in contact with water inside and outside of cell Nonpolar tails: fatty acid chains point inward toward one another.

The Model The model of the p.m. is called the fluid mosaic model because the phospholipids move within the membrane and proteins in the membrane move among the phospholipids. It’s flexible

What does that mean? “Fluid” means it can move (flow) “Mosaic” Animation http://www.susanahalpine.com/anim/Life/memb.htm

What are the other parts of the p.m.? Cholesterol keeps the fatty acid tails from sticking together, keeps the membrane stable. Carbohydrates stick out from the cell surface to help cells identify chemical signals.

Summary Section 2 – pages 175-178 Other components of the plasma membrane: Transport proteins allow things to move through the plasma membrane.(2 types) Channel protein – always open Carrier protein – only open to certain substances Summary Section 2 – pages 175-178

Question 1 A. protein synthesis B. selective permeability Which of the following best describes the plasma membrane's mechanism in maintaining homeostasis? A. protein synthesis B. selective permeability C. fluid composition D. structural protein attachment Section 2 Check

The answer is B. Selective permeability is the process in which the membrane allows some molecules to pass through, while keeping others out. Section 2 Check

Question 2 Describe the structure of the plasma membrane. Section 2 Check

The plasma membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer, which has two layers of phospholipids back-to-back. The polar heads of phospholipid molecules contain phosphate groups and face outward. Section 2 Check

Question 3 Phospholipid molecule Why is the phosphate group of a phospholipid important to the plasma membrane? Polar head (includes phosphate group) Nonpolar tails (fatty acids) Section 2 Check

When phospholipid molecules form a bilayer, the phosphate groups lie to the outside. Because phosphate groups are polar, they allow the cell membrane to interact with its watery (polar) environments inside and outside the cell. Phospholipid molecule Polar head (includes phosphate group) Nonpolar tails (fatty acids) Section 2 Check

Question 4 Explain why the model of the plasma membrane is called the fluid mosaic model. Section 2 Check

It is fluid because the phospholipid molecules move within the membrane. Proteins in the membrane that move among the phospholipids create the mosaic pattern. Section 2 Check
