Moving Cellular Material
Chapter 2 Lesson 3
2
unit membrane a thin structure composed of proteins and lipids
type of membrane found around all cells around many of the structures inside cells the outer boundary of a cell
3
Important Property of Membranes
selectively permeable: certain molecules go through them and other molecules do not
4
Selectively Permeable
Not all membranes are permeable to the same molecules. However water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide are small and easily passes through most membranes.
5
How does a substance pass through a unit membrane?
Passive Transport Active Transport Facilitated Diffusion
6
PASSIVE TRANSPORT the passage of substances across a membrane without the use of energy
7
PASSIVE TRANSPORT This is the main way.
Small molecules, such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, pass through membranes via passive transport. Passive transport depends on the amount of substance on each side of a membrane. This is the main way.
8
two main forms of passive transport
Diffusion Osmosis
9
diffusion the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration diffusion from Latin diffusionem, means “scatter, pour out”
10
diffusion diffusion can be speeded up by such things as heat,movement, and pressure
11
Diffusion Diffusion continues until the concentration of a substance is the same on both sides of the membrane. The substance is then in equilibrium.
12
the diffusion of water through a membrane
osmosis the diffusion of water through a membrane
13
osmosis Semipermeable cell membranes allow water to pass through them until equilibrium occurs.
14
Facilitated Diffusion
Facilitated diffusion occurs when molecules pass through a cell membrane using special proteins called transport proteins. Carrier proteins are transport proteins that carry large molecules through the cell membrane. Channel proteins are transport proteins that form pores through the cell membrane.
15
Facilitated Diffusion
The Plasma Membrane 11/23/2018 Facilitated Diffusion *Is a type of passive transport Doesn’t require energy Uses transport proteins to move molecules from high to low concentration Facilitated Diffusion- is the movement of larger molecules like glucose through the cell membrane larger molecules must be “helped” Examples: Glucose or amino acids moving from blood into a cell. G. Podgorski, Biol. 1010
16
Facilitated Diffusion
17
ACTIVE TRANSPORT the passage of particles through a membrane; requires the use of cellular energy (sometimes because of the size of the molecule being so large, or going against gradient)
18
This is going to be hard work!!
Active Transport Requires Energy. ATP (form of energy made by mitochondria). Moves against the concentration gradient. High low This is going to be hard work!!
19
Sodium Potassium Pump What I need to know
Active transport goes AGAINST the concentration gradient Low solute concentration to high solute concentration The cell uses energy (ATP) to actively transport Na+ out of the cell and K+ into the cell against the concentration gradient

Sodium Potassium Pump
21
Endocytosis and Exocytosis is the mechanism by which very large molecules (such as food and wastes) get into and out of the cell **ENERGY IS REQUIRED Food is moved into the cell by Endocytosis Wastes are moved out of the cell by Exocytosis
22
Endocytosis Think endo- Think enter
Transporting material into a cell by the in folding of a membrane. Think endo- Think enter To take inside of the cell
23
2 Types of Endocytosis Phagocytosis- Solid particles are ingested into the cell. Pinocytosis – liquids and very small molecules are taken into the cell.
24
Endocytosis
26
Exocytosis Moves materials out of the cell Think exo- Think exit
27
Exocytosis- moving things out.
The Plasma Membrane Moving the “Big Stuff” 11/23/2018 Exocytosis- moving things out. Molecules are moved out of the cell by vesicles that fuse with the plasma membrane. This is how many hormones are secreted and how nerve cells communicate with one another. G. Podgorski, Biol. 1010
