Warm Up for 10/4: In a sentence or two, explain why the oil can’t “mix” with the water molecules.
2
Cell Membrane make-up The cell membrane is a double-layered sheet called a lipid bilayer. This layer forms a strong barrier between the cell and its surroundings. Said to be semipermeable or selectively permeable
3
3 Main Functions of Cell Membrane
Boundary – Separates the cells from each other and their environment
4
3 Main Functions of Cell Membrane
Regulator – Allowing the transport of some substances into and out of the cell, but not others Semi- or Selectively Permeable
5
3 Main Functions of Cell Membrane
Signaling – allows cells to signal other cells. Cells have proteins called receptors that bind to signaling molecules and initiate a physiological response. Example: Hormones Different receptors are specific for different molecules. Receptors can also respond directly to light or pressure.
6
Parts of the Cell Membrane
Phospholipid Head – Creates the outside of the membrane Polar Hydrophilic – Water Loving
7
Parts of the Cell Membrane
Phospholipid Tail – Creates the inside of the membrane, causes membrane to stay together Nonpolar Hydrophobic – Water Fearing
8
Parts of the Cell Membrane
Integral Proteins – Completely inside the lipid bilayer Control entry and removal of specific substances Channel and carrier proteins
9
Parts of the Cell Membrane
Peripheral Proteins – Bound to the exterior side of the membrane Has various functions
10
Parts of the Cell Membrane
Cholesterol – Help keep the fluidity of the membrane Fluid Mosaic Model
11
Parts of the Cell Membrane
Carbohydrate Chains – Serve as the “fingerprints” of the cell Glycoproteins and Glycolipids allow the cells to recognize each other
12
4 Main Functions of Cell Membrane
Recognition – help cells identify self from non-self *Glycoproteins and Glycolipids allow the cells to recognize each other*
