1
Cell Membranes & Walls
2
Types of Cells Prokaryotes Archaebacteria Eubacteria * Eukaryotes Plants * Animals * Fungi Protists
3
Why do cells have a membranes/walls?
4
Functions of Cell Membrane 4 Separates & protects cell from its surrounding environment Protein molecules inside the cell membrane act as channels & pumps that move different molecules into & out of the cell. Receptor proteins in cell membrane allow cells to detect external signaling molecules such as hormones
5
Evolution of Cell Membrane 4 Current Theory: 1st prokaryotic cell membrane was a single layer of lipids
6
Phospholipid Hydrophilic Head (Polar) : Polar Group + Phosphate + Glyerol Hydrophobic Tail (Non Polar) : 2 Fatty Acid Chains
7
To Try... 1.Use a disposable pipet to place a drop of water on the 2 different kinds of spoons 2.Sketch & Describe what you see
8
Phospholipid Bilayer When phospholipids are placed in water they usually form a sphere.
9
To Try... 1.Fill a petri dish halfway with water 2.Use a disposable pipet to drop oil onto the water 3.Sketch and describe your observations
10
Modern Bacteria Cell Membrane Phospoholipid Bilayer
11
Cell Membrane Proteins Protein functions: Transport nutrients, waste, gases, etc. Chemical Receptors for the cell
12
Cell Membrane Characteristics Semi-permeable: the membrane allows the movement of some, but not all particles
13
Cell Membrane Characteristics Fluid Mosaic Model: it is a lot of small components that together make the cell membrane http://home.earthlink.net/~shalpine/anim/Life/memb.htm
14
Bacteria Cells 7 Gram Positive & Gram Negative Cell Wall & Membrane
15
Bacteria Cells Gram Positive: Phospholipid Bilayer + Thick Cell Wall (Peptidoglycan) Gram Negative: Phospholipid Bilayer + Thin Cell Wall + Phospholipid Bilayer
16
Gram-positive Cell Wall 8 & 9 Cell Wall: made of peptidoglycan (murein) = polymer of sugars & amino acids Cell Membrane: Phospholipid Bilayer is made of phoshates and lipid molecules
17
Gram-Negative Cell Wall What is different?
18
Gram Staining Protocol: 1) Apply a primary stain (crystal violet or methylene blue) to bacteria 2) Add Mordant (Gram's iodine) & let stand for 10-60 seconds, then pour off excess 3) Rapid decolorization w/ alcohol or acetone, rinse after 5 seconds (TIME CRUCIAL) 4) Counterstain w/ safranin or basic fuchsin for 40- 60 seconds, wash excess
19
Gram Staining
20
Gram Positive: Purple Gram Negative: Pink
21
Endosymbiotic Theory 5 Organelles orginated as seperate prokaryotic organisms which were taken inside the cell as endosymbionts Mitochondria developed from proteobacteria Chloroplasts evolved from cyanobacteria
22
Endosymbiotic Theory 6
23
Eukaryotic Cell Membrane 1
24
Eukaryotic Cell Membrane 2 What is similar between this cell membrane and the bacterial cell membrane?
25
Plant Cell Wall 10 Cell Wall thick & rigid prevents enlargement of the plant cell helps the plant absorb, transport, & secrete substances Cell Membrane
26
Plant Cell Wall Pectin: Hemicellulose: Cellulose Microfibril:

28
Cell Membranes are like Bubbles... Challenge: 1.Get a paper clip through the bubble without popping the bubble 2.Get a pencil through the bubble without getting it wet
29
Soap Membrane How does the soap membrane compare to the cell membrane?
30
Soap in Action Captures the lipid
