How do materials move into and out of the cell?

2. Cell Membrane
The cell membrane is like a security door controlling what materials can enter and exit the cell.
We describe this cell part as: “selectively permeable.”
THINK! - What does selective mean?
Very Choosy
THINK! - What does permeable mean?
To pass through

Perfume molecules
Did we use energy?
Yes or No

Put 1 drop of food coloring in your beaker of water.
Watch how the molecules move for 5 minutes.
Sketch your beaker at start and end.
START END.
What molecules moved?
Food Dye molecules
Did you use energy?
Yes or No
In what direction did the molecules move?
More crowded to less crowded
Less crowded to more crowded

7. Example #3: Sugar Cubes Directions: Sugar molecules
Fill your beaker ¼ of the way up with warm water.
Drop in a sugar cube.
Watch how the molecules move for 5 minutes.
Sketch your beaker at start and end.
START END
What molecules moved?
Sugar molecules
Did you use energy?
Yes or No
In what direction did the molecules move?
More crowded to less crowded
Less crowded to more crowded

8. What is Diffusion? Fill in the definition using what you learned.
The Movement of ______________ from
_______ concentration (more crowded) to
_______ concentration (less crowded) using ______________.
The molecules move until they spread out _________. This is called equilibrium.
MOLECULES
HIGH
LOW
NO ENERGY
EVENLY

10. Phase 1 –Drug Creation
The Innovation Center is creating a new chemical that will enter cancer cells. This chemical will kill the cell as it passes through the cell membrane. The Center is very close to finishing their drug. However, we need to add one more molecule to make the drug complete. Which molecule(s) will be small enough to pass through the cell membrane: Iodine or Starch? Use the principle of diffusion to figure out the answer.
Build a cell model for diffusion to work.
Fill out the data table.
Analyze data & tell Center which molecule(s) to use.
Call your supervisor over for clearance to clean up.

11. Which molecule should the Center use? Why?
The Center should use IODINE because it is small enough to pass through the membrane. Starch is TOO big and stayed inside the cell.

Today’s Question: What is osmosis?

13. Phase 2: Drug Testing on Cell Models
Now that we’ve made our cancer drug we are ready to test it on animal cells. However, in order for the drug to pass through the membrane we need cells that are BIG! Which solution will help our cells grow larger: Freshwater or Saltwater? Please use the principle of osmosis and soak your gummi cells overnight to figure out the answer.
Complete Day 1: Set up bears & take measurements
Leave overnight for osmosis to happen.
Complete Day 2: Check bears & take measurements
Analyze data and make a recommendation
Call your supervisor over for clearance to clean up.

14. Which solution should the Innovation Center use: Freshwater or Saltwater? Why?
The Center should use FRESHWATER because the gummi bear grew larger.
Osmosis caused the water to move from HIGH concentration in the cup to low concentration inside the gummi bear.

15. What is Osmosis? Fill in the definition using what you learned.
The Movement of ______________ from
_______ concentration (more crowded) to
_______ concentration (less crowded) using ______________.
The molecules move until they spread out _________. This is called equilibrium.
WATER
HIGH
LOW

Water No Energy High Evenly Low

16. Osmosis Problems
Problem #1 – A cell is placed in pure Freshwater. Which way will the water flow?
CELL SWELLS

17. Osmosis Problems
Problem #2 – A cell is placed in saltwater. Which way will the water flow?
Salt molecule
CELL SHRINKS

18. Osmosis Problems
Problem #3 – A cell is already at equilibrium. Which way will water flow?
SAME SHAPE

20. Activity: Osmosis in Animal Cells How would you explain this cartoon using your knowledge of osmosis?
My Answer:
Slugs are afraid because
salt will make their cells shrink.
The water will move from HIGH conc. (inside cell)
to LOW conc. (outside cell).
Low
High

21. Activity: Osmosis in Plant Cells
What happens when plant cells are in freshwater?
What happens when plant cells are in saltwater?
Water moves
into cell
Water Leaves

22. Phase 3: Drug Delivery
You have already completed two phases of this project. In this last phase we must deliver the drug inside the cell. Unfortunately, with all the extra modifications that we did, the drug turned out to be TOO BIG to pas through the membrane. How can we get LARGE molecules to enter the cell? Please use the idea of active transport to model a way that the cell can do this using materials provided.
Read instructions
Use materials and model a method
Share your solution
Call your supervisor over for clearance to clean up.

23. The Question: The Task: Rules:
How can we get LARGE molecules to enter the cell?
The Task:
For this task gather the following materials to work with.
1 plastic shopping bag
1 pair of scissors
~ 15 cm of string
1 small wrapped candy
Rules:
1. The candy must enter through the solid part of the bag.
2. The inside of the bag can NOT be open to the outside.
3. The candies entering the bag must remain clustered together.
4. You many work with your hands inside the bag.
What is your solution?

24. Cells Move Materials Using…
Passive Transport
ENERGY!
Diffusion
Osmosis
NO ENERGY!
Active Transport
Today’s Question: What is active transport?

25. Active Transport
The movement of Large particles across the cell membrane
The cell uses ENERGY
Active Transport is like pedaling a bike uphill. Molecules move from LOW concentration to HIGH Concentration.

26. Engulfing One type of active transport is called engulfing.
The cell membrane wraps around the large particle.
It is then brought into the cell as a vesicle.
