3. Movement Substances move in and out of cells in 2 ways Diffusion movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. Active Transport Active Transport Movement of molecules from a less crowded to a more crowded area WITH the use of energy. Molecules are “carried" into or out of the cell using some of the cell's energy. Molecules are “carried" into or out of the cell using some of the cell's energy.

4. Movement in cells takes place through membranes All the membranes in a cell act in the same way Mitochondrial membranes Cell Membranes Chloroplast membranes Nuclear membranes

6. Permeability Membranes can be Permeable – let everything in and out Semi Permeable - let some things in and out Impermeable – let nothing in and out

9. Osmosis Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration

10. Osmosis is a special type of diffusion that does not require energy Osmosis is a special type of diffusion that does not require energy Osmosis is passive Osmosis is passive

12. If pure water is separated from salt water the following ocurrs If pure water is separated from salt water the following ocurrs The water molecules move randomly on both directions The water molecules move randomly on both directions The salt molecules cannot move out so more water moves in to the salt solution The salt molecules cannot move out so more water moves in to the salt solution What you have is water moving from where there is a high concentration of water to where there is a lower concentration of water this is osmosis What you have is water moving from where there is a high concentration of water to where there is a lower concentration of water this is osmosis

13. Learning Check What is osmosis? What is osmosis? Does osmosis require energy? Does osmosis require energy?

14. Osmosis and Animal Cells Animal cells are only enclosed by a membrane Animal cells are only enclosed by a membrane If an animal cell is surrounded by a solution that is the same concentration as the cytoplasm in the cell water will move in and out at the same rate and the cell will remain intact If an animal cell is surrounded by a solution that is the same concentration as the cytoplasm in the cell water will move in and out at the same rate and the cell will remain intact

15. Many animals that live in the sea have cytoplasm with a similar concentration to sea water Many animals that live in the sea have cytoplasm with a similar concentration to sea water It is the function of our kidneys to make sure the fluid in our bodies that surrounds our cells (plasma) has a stable concentration It is the function of our kidneys to make sure the fluid in our bodies that surrounds our cells (plasma) has a stable concentration

16. Animal cells in a less concentrated solution If an animal cell is in a solution that is less concentrated than its cytoplasm (ie if there is more water outside than inside the cell) the water from outside will move into the cell and may cause it to burst or die If an animal cell is in a solution that is less concentrated than its cytoplasm (ie if there is more water outside than inside the cell) the water from outside will move into the cell and may cause it to burst or die

17. Amoebas

18. Animal Cells in a more concentrated solution If animal cells are in a solution that is more concentrated than their cytoplasm (ie if there is more water in their cytoplasm than in the solution outside) then the water may leave the animal cell and the cells shrivel up and may die If animal cells are in a solution that is more concentrated than their cytoplasm (ie if there is more water in their cytoplasm than in the solution outside) then the water may leave the animal cell and the cells shrivel up and may die

19. Shrivelled Animal Cells

20. Learning check What surrounds an animal cell? What surrounds an animal cell? How does water move in and out of an animal cell? How does water move in and out of an animal cell? What will happen to animal cells in a very dilute (watery) solution? What will happen to animal cells in a very dilute (watery) solution? What will happen to animal cells in a very concentrated solution? What will happen to animal cells in a very concentrated solution?

21. Osmosis and Plant Cells Plant cells have a membrane which is surrounded by a cell wall Plant cells have a membrane which is surrounded by a cell wall Cell walls are fully permeable and will allow all substances in and out of the cell Cell walls are fully permeable and will allow all substances in and out of the cell If a plant cell is surrounded by a less concentrated solution then water from outside will move into the cytoplasm and vacuole of plant cells If a plant cell is surrounded by a less concentrated solution then water from outside will move into the cytoplasm and vacuole of plant cells This is how roots absorb water by osmosis This is how roots absorb water by osmosis

22. Water entering roots by osmosis The water outside is less concentrated than the water in the cytoplasm The water outside is less concentrated than the water in the cytoplasm

23. Turgor When the outside water enters the plant cell the vacuole becomes bigger and the cytoplasm swells When the outside water enters the plant cell the vacuole becomes bigger and the cytoplasm swells This causes the membrane to be pushed out towards the cell wall This causes the membrane to be pushed out towards the cell wall When cells are fully “swelled” like this with the membranes pushing against the cell wall they are described as Turgid When cells are fully “swelled” like this with the membranes pushing against the cell wall they are described as Turgid

24. Turgid Cells

25. Turgor pressure This turgor pressure gives plants their strength This turgor pressure gives plants their strength If plants did not have this they would be wilted If plants did not have this they would be wilted Plants that don’t have wood such as lettuce and house plants rely on turgor pressure for strength Plants that don’t have wood such as lettuce and house plants rely on turgor pressure for strength

26. Plant cells in a more concentrated solution If plant cells are surrounded by a more concentrated solution (for example if plant cells were surrounded by salt water) the water inside the cell would move out to the more concentrated solution outside If plant cells are surrounded by a more concentrated solution (for example if plant cells were surrounded by salt water) the water inside the cell would move out to the more concentrated solution outside

29. Plasmolysis When this happens the cell wall stays intact but the membrane shrivels up away from it When this happens the cell wall stays intact but the membrane shrivels up away from it This is called Plasmolysis This is called Plasmolysis Cells in this condition are called plasmolysed cells we can look at this easily by placing a layer of red onion cells in salt water Cells in this condition are called plasmolysed cells we can look at this easily by placing a layer of red onion cells in salt water

31. Osmosis and Food Preservation Bacteria and Fungi are the most common causes of food spoilage Bacteria and Fungi are the most common causes of food spoilage Both these cells are enclosed by a membrane Both these cells are enclosed by a membrane If a food is placed in a sugary or salty solution then any bacteria or fungi present will lose the water in their cells to the more concentrated solution outside If a food is placed in a sugary or salty solution then any bacteria or fungi present will lose the water in their cells to the more concentrated solution outside

32. When this happens the cells will shrivel and die and the food will not become contaminated with loads of bacteria nad fungi When this happens the cells will shrivel and die and the food will not become contaminated with loads of bacteria nad fungi
