1
Getting Into and Out of Cells Cell Transport
2
Types of Cell Transport Passive Transport - no cellular energy required to occur - goes with the concentration gradient - diffusion - facilitated diffusion - osmosis Active Transport - requires cellular energy to occur - goes against the concentration gradient - Endocytosis/Exocytosis - Sodium Potassium Pump
3
Concentration Gradient The concentration gradient is the distribution of particles across space from high to low concentration
4
Passive Transport Energy for passive transport comes from the molecules themselves In passive transport, molecules move with the concentration gradient - move from high concentration to low concentration
5
Diffusion Primary means of cell transport - molecules move from high to low concentration - movement continues with the gradient until the molecules are evenly distributed - equilibrium is achieved
6
Facilitated Diffusion Particles move with the concentration gradient across a transport protein in the membrane - ions, sugar and amino acids all move into and out of cells by facilitated diffusion
7
Osmosis The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane - water moves from where there is more water to where there is less water - water moves toward higher conc. of dissolved material - solute
8
Three osmotic environments Hypotonic environment Little(below) solute/lots of water What happens when you place cells in an environment that is hypotonic to it? Hmm Animal Cell Plant Cell
9
Hypotonic Environment Animal Cell Plant Cell Before Water Moves In After burst turgid
10
2 nd type of Environment Hypertonic Lots of solute/little water What happens when you place a cell in an environment that is hypertonic to it? hmm
11
Hypertonic environment Animal Cell Plant Cell Before Water Moves Out shrinks plasmolyze
12
3 rd Environment Isotonic Environment Equal amounts of solute and water What happens to a cell in an isotonic environment? hmm
13
Isotonic Environment Animal Before Plant Water Moves In and Out at an equal rate No Change After No Change
