Do Now Welcome back! I hope you had a wonderful, relaxing holiday break! What is the role of the cell membrane? How do you think it is able to perform this function?
2
Membrane Structure and Function
Chapter 5
3
Objectives To identify the components of the cell membrane
To explain what role each macromolecule has in creating the membrane structure
4
What does the membrane do?
Maintains an internal environment that is different from the external environment. Regulates what molecules enter and exit the cell Membranes are composed of a phospholipid bilayer
5
Phospholipid Bilayer Lets break down the word! Phospho-phosphate group
Lipid-Fat Bilayer- 2 layers **Unsaturated fatty acid tails have kinks in their tails to prevent them from being packed tightly together.
6
Phospholipid Bilayer The phospholipid bilayer is said to be a “Fluid Mosaic Model” Mosaic= composed of diverse pieces embedded in the framework. Can also refer to the variety of functions provided by these pieces Fluid= these pieces can drift about in the membrane
7
Selective Permeability
Controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell Controls AMOUNT of substances entering and leaving the cell Fish net analogy
8
POGIL This activity is an introduction of this chapter and will cover a LOT of material. We will spend more time on each section so don’t worry if you are confused, however please call me over if you have any questions!
9
Do Now Please take out your POGIL activity!
What are the types of transport that the POGIL revealed to you? How were they similar? How were they different?
10
Proteins Purpose: Types: Provide structure/framework
Provide channels for transport Enzyme Activity Receptors Types: Peripheral (surface) Integral (Transmembrane)
11
Carbohydrates Attached to proteins (glycoproteins) or attached to phospholipids (glycolipids) Help cell identify chemical signals (cell to cell recognition) Ex. Help disease-fighting cells recognize harmful cells
12
Cholesterol Stabilizes membrane
Prevents fatty acid tails from sticking together to keep the fluidity
14
Types of transport 1. Passive Transport 2. Active Transport
Requires NO energy Molecules move down a concentration gradient 2. Active Transport Requires energy Molecules go against the concentration gradient
15
What is diffusion? Diffusion-Movement of molecules from High concentration to Low Concentration by random motion (Moves down its concentration gradient) Requires no energy High Concentration Low Concentration
16
Things that Affect the speed of Passive Transport
1. Heat- Hotter faster 2. Size – Bigger slower 3. State of Matter Solid- Slow Liquid – Fast Gas- Fastest
17
Balanced Concentration
Diffusion continued… Mixing continues until concentrations are the same in all areas Dynamic Equilibrium-continues movement but NO NET overall change. Balanced Concentration
18
Diffusion Video
19
Diffusion across the plasma membrane
*Cells also need ions and small molecules to perform cellular functions (Ex. Ions and Sugars) (Ex.H2O, O2, CO2) T.P Large and/or Charged- Transport Protein Small and/or non-polar molecules
20
Facilitated Diffusion
Most substance cannot readily pass through the membrane. Facilitated diffusion: Movement of materials across the plasma membrane using proteins (down concentration gradient) Channel Proteins Carrier Proteins
21
Types of Transport Proteins
Channel Proteins- Pores that allow charged ions to pass through the membrane Carrier (Gated) Proteins- Change shape to help molecules pass through the membrane
22
Do Now Looking at the beakers below, identify the picture that would match the descriptions. A. Dissolved solute B. Only Solute C. An Uniform Mixture, Solution D. Moving Solute Molecules E. Shows 2 areas that show a difference in solute amount
23
Passive Transport Lab Problem: Which solute molecules can pass through the membrane using passive transport? 3 Solutions: Glucose Starch Iodine
24
Passive Transport Cell Model Set up
Post Lab Passive Transport Cell Model Set up This is after the dialysis bag that was filled with a glucose and starch solution looked like after 60 minutes.
25
Passive Transport Cell Model Setup
This is what the setup looked like after 24 hours.
26
The Benedict’s Solution Result
This is a tube of beaker solution and Benedict’s solution. Note the orange color that looks like carrot juice. Yum, yum!
27
Diffusion of Water- OSMOSIS
Water always flows via osmosis from HIGH water concentration to LOW water concentration through a semi permeable membrane. Can move right through the phospholipids from high to low concentration (slow process) Aquaporins- Integral membrane proteins that allow rapid diffusion of water into and out of cells
28
Osmosis Which container has more water in it?
29
Tonicity A term that describes the ability of a solution to cause a cell to gain or lose water Many organisms are able to maintain water balance within their cells by osmoregulation This process prevents excessive uptake or excessive loss of water. Plant, prokaryotic, and fungal cells have different issues with osmoregulation because of their cell walls.
30
Cellular Structure and Function
Isotonic Solution Water and dissolved substances diffuse into and out of the cell at the same rate. Plant Cell Blood Cell 11,397x
31
HypOtonic Solution Solute concentration is higher inside the cell.
Water diffuses into the cell, cell swells/bursts Plant Cell Blood Cell 13,000x
32
Osmosis- diffusion of water across a membrane
Water always flows vis osmosis from HIGH water concentration to LOW water concentration This cell Bursts! 22% Salt 45% Salt H2O
33
Hypertonic Solution Solute concentration is higher outside the cell.
Water diffuses out of the cell, cell shrivels Plant Cell Blood Cell 13,000x
34
Osmosis- diffusion of water across a membrane
Remember: Water always flows via osmosis from HIGH water concentration to LOW water concentration This cell would shrink! H2O 22% Salt 5% Salt
36
3 Types of Solutions Cell in ________ Solution
H2O H2O H2O For each solution, determine if the solute concentration of the solution is high, the same, or low as compared the cell.
37
Real life osmosis examples
Your garden is infested with slugs so you go around pouring salt on them What type of solution is this salt? What is going to happen to the cells of the slug? (Don’t do this to the poor slugs )
38
Real life osmosis examples
A salt water fish is put into a freshwater aquarium. What type of solution is the freshwater? What is going to happen to the cells of the fish?
39
Important Vocab… Plasmolysis: State where plant cells shrink in hypertonic environment (animal cells= “crenation”) Plant Animal
40
Important Vocab… Flaccid: State where a plant cell is placed in isotonic solution Plant Animal
41
Important Vocab… Cytolysis: State where cells Burst in hypotonic environment Turgid: State where plant cells swell in hypotonic solutions Creates Turger Pressure in plants (animal cells= Lyse) Plant Animal
42
Active Transport Specific protein can pump molecules across the membrane Usually in opposite direction of diffusion (Low concentration to high concentration) Against the concentration gradient Requires ENERGY (ATP)
43
Sodium Potassium Pump Type of Active Transport
Moves three Na+ ions out of the cell and two K+ ions into the cell
44
Sodium Potassium Pump: Video
45
Transport of Large Molecules
Usually Transported by Vesicles Endocytosis-Into the cell Phagocytosis- Engulfment of particles into vesicles. Pinocytosis- Engulfment of fluids into small vesicles Receptor-mediated- interact with specific protein to initiate vesicle formation. Exocytosis-Exiting the cell
