1
Bellwork for today… Write down “Glued Lipids”
2
Standard B4.B : investigate and explain cellular processes, including homeostasis, energy conversions, transport of molecules, and synthesis of new molecules. Essential Question: How are facilitated diffusion and active transport unique?
3
What is happening in the picture?.
4
In the bellwork… We discussed that molecules will NATURALLY want to move/spread out from an area of HIGH concentration to an area of LOW concentration. concentration gradient: The range of concentrations over which molecules move during diffusion.
5
Concentration Gradient

Cell Membrane Recap https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKN5sq5dtW 4&feature=youtu.be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKN5sq5dtW 4&feature=youtu.be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STLAJH7_zkY &feature=youtu.be
7
EQUILIBRIUM: the concentration of a solute is the same throughout a system particles continue to move the goal of diffusion!
8
Diffusion does NOT require energy!!
9
The rate (speed) at which molecules pass through a membrane depends on its permeability.
10
PERMEABLE = all substances can pass through IMPERMEABLE= no substances can pass through
11
Cell membranes are SELECTIVELY permeable Some substances can pass through, while others cannot
12
The lipid bilayer will allow most small molecules to diffuse in and out but not large or charged molecules.
13
So, if the cell needs these larger or charged molecules to function, how are they able to get through?
14
The Cell Membrane: It’s not just Lipids, Ya’ll. It surrounds the entire cell and also contains special protein and carbohydrate compounds.
15
The Cell Membrane: These proteins perform some very special functions for the cell.
16
The proteins form special pathways or channels for larger particles
17
Facilitated Diffusion : transport of molecules across a membrane using specific transport proteins.
18
Facilitate: to make easier or to assist Diffuse: when molecules move from high to low concentration or with the concentration gradient High Low
19
Facilitated Diffusion
20
D iffusion and F acilitated D iffusion both go with the concentration gradient. (high to low)
21
Moving WITH the concentration gradient (high to low) requires no energy. *Go with the flow
22
However...sometimes molecules need to move AGAINST the concentration gradient (Low to High)
23
Moving from Low to High concentration DOES require energy… *Going against the flow
24
Active Transport: movement of larger molecules through a protein channel into a region of higher concentration which requires energy.
25
ATP: Adenosine Triphosphate Molecule that provides energy for Active Transport
26
Answer the following questions: 1.What is happening to the Hydrogen in the picture? 2.What process is happening in the top part of the picture? How do you know? 3.What process is happening in the bottom part of the picture? How do you know?
