1 Chapter 5 The Working Cell

2 Cool “Fires” Attract Mates and Meals
Fireflies use light to send signals to potential mates Instead of using chemical signals like most other insects

3 The light comes from a set of chemical reactions
That occur in light-producing organs at the rear of the insect

4 Females of some species
Produce a light pattern that attracts males of other species, which are then eaten by the female

5 ENERGY AND THE CELL © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 5

6 5.1 Cells transform energy as they perform work
Cells are small units, a chemical factory, housing thousands of chemical reactions. Cells use these chemical reactions for cell maintenance, manufacture of cellular parts, and cell replication. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 6

7 5.1 Cells transform energy as they perform work
Energy is the capacity to cause change or to perform work. There are two kinds of energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. Potential energy is energy that matter possesses as a result of its location or structure. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 7

8 Kinetic energy of movement

9 5.1 Cells transform energy as they perform work
Heat, or thermal energy, is a type of kinetic energy associated with the random movement of atoms or molecules. Light is also a type of kinetic energy, and can be harnessed to power photosynthesis. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 9

10 5.1 Cells transform energy as they perform work
Chemical energy is the potential energy available for release in a chemical reaction. It is the most important type of energy for living organisms to power the work of the cell. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 10

11 5.1 Cells transform energy as they perform work
Cells use oxygen in reactions that release energy from fuel molecules. In cellular respiration, the chemical energy stored in organic molecules is converted to a form that the cell can use to perform work. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 11

12 5.2 Two laws govern energy transformations
Thermodynamics is the study of energy transformations that occur in a collection of matter. Scientists use the word system for the matter under study and surroundings for the rest of the universe. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 12

13 5.2 Two laws govern energy transformations
Two laws govern energy transformations in organisms. According to the first law of thermodynamics, energy in the universe is constant, and second law of thermodynamics, energy conversions increase the disorder of the universe. Entropy is the measure of disorder, or randomness. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 13

14 5.3 Chemical reactions either store or release energy
release energy (exergonic reactions) or require an input of energy and store energy (endergonic reactions). © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 14

15 5.3 Chemical reactions either store or release energy
Exergonic reactions release energy. These reactions release the energy in covalent bonds of the reactants. Burning wood releases the energy in glucose as heat and light. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 15

16 5.3 Chemical reactions either store or release energy
Cellular respiration involves many steps, releases energy slowly, and uses some of the released energy to produce ATP. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 16

17 Amount of energy released

18 5.3 Chemical reactions either store or release energy
An endergonic reaction requires an input of energy and yields products rich in potential energy. Endergonic reactions begin with reactant molecules that contain relatively little potential energy but end with products that contain more chemical energy. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 18

20 5.3 Chemical reactions either store or release energy
Photosynthesis is a type of endergonic process. Energy-poor reactants, carbon dioxide, and water are used. Energy is absorbed from sunlight. Energy-rich sugar molecules are produced. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 20

21 5.3 Chemical reactions either store or release energy
A living organism carries out thousands of endergonic and exergonic chemical reactions. The total of an organism’s chemical reactions is called metabolism. A metabolic pathway is a series of chemical reactions that either builds a complex molecule or breaks down a complex molecule into simpler compounds. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 21

22 5.3 Chemical reactions either store or release energy
Energy coupling uses the energy released from exergonic reactions to drive essential endergonic reactions, usually using the energy stored in ATP molecules. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 22

23 5.4 ATP shuttles chemical energy and drives cellular wor
ATP, adenosine triphosphate, powers nearly all forms of cellular work. ATP consists of the nitrogenous base adenine, the five-carbon sugar ribose, and three phosphate groups. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 23

24 5.4 ATP shuttles chemical energy and drives cellular wor
Hydrolysis of ATP releases energy by transferring its third phosphate from ATP to some other molecule in a process called phosphorylation. Most cellular work depends on ATP energizing molecules by phosphorylating them. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 24

31 HOW ENZYMES FUNCTION © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 31

32 5.5 Enzymes speed up the cell’s chemical reactions by lowering energy barriers
Although biological molecules possess much potential energy, it is not released spontaneously. An energy barrier must be overcome before a chemical reaction can begin. This energy is called the activation energy (EA). © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 32

33 5.5 Enzymes speed up the cell’s chemical reactions by lowering energy barriers
We can think of EA as the amount of energy needed for a reactant molecule to move “uphill” to a higher energy but an unstable state so that the “downhill” part of the reaction can begin. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 33

34 5.5 Enzymes speed up the cell’s chemical reactions by lowering energy barriers
One way to speed up a reaction is to add heat, which agitates atoms so that bonds break more easily and reactions can proceed but could kill a cell. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 34

39 5.6 A specific enzyme catalyzes each cellular reaction
An enzyme is very selective in the reaction it catalyzes and has a shape that determines the enzyme’s specificity. The specific reactant that an enzyme acts on is called the enzyme’s substrate. . © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 39

40 5.6 A specific enzyme catalyzes each cellular reaction
A substrate fits into a region of the enzyme called the active site. Enzymes are specific because their active site fits only specific substrate molecules. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 40

41 5.6 A specific enzyme catalyzes each cellular reaction
The following figure illustrates the catalytic cycle of an enzyme. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 41

46 5.7 The cellular environment affects enzyme activity
For every enzyme, there are optimal conditions under which it is most effective. Temperature affects molecular motion. An enzyme’s optimal temperature produces the highest rate of contact between the reactants and the enzyme’s active site. Most human enzymes work best at 35–40ºC. The optimal pH for most enzymes is near neutrality. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 46

47 5.7 The cellular environment affects enzyme activity
Many enzymes require nonprotein helpers called cofactors, which bind to the active site and function in catalysis. Some cofactors are inorganic, such as zinc, iron, or copper. If a cofactor is an organic molecule, such as most vitamins, it is called a coenzyme. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 47

48 5.8 Enzyme inhibitors can regulate enzyme activity in a cell
A chemical that interferes with an enzyme’s activity is called an inhibitor. Competitive inhibitors block substrates from entering the active site and reduce an enzyme’s productivity. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 48

49 5.8 Enzyme inhibitors can regulate enzyme activity in a cell
Noncompetitive inhibitors bind to the enzyme somewhere other than the active site, change the shape of the active site, and prevent the substrate from binding. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 49

51 5.8 Enzyme inhibitors can regulate enzyme activity in a cell
Enzyme inhibitors are important in regulating cell metabolism. In some reactions, the product may act as an inhibitor of one of the enzymes in the pathway that produced it. This is called feedback inhibition. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 51

53 5.7 The cellular environment affects enzyme activity
Temperature, salt concentration, and pH influence enzyme activity Some enzymes require nonprotein cofactors Such as metal ions or organic molecules called coenzymes

57 MEMBRANE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 57

58 5.10 Membranes organize the chemical activities of cells
Membranes are composed of a bilayer of phospholipids with embedded and attached proteins, in a structure biologists call a fluid mosaic. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 58

59 5.10 Membranes organize the chemical activities of cells
Membrane proteins perform many functions. Some proteins help maintain cell shape and coordinate changes inside and outside the cell through their attachment to the cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix. Some proteins function as receptors for chemical messengers from other cells. Some membrane proteins function as enzymes. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 59

60 5.10 Membranes organize the chemical activities of cells
Some membrane glycoproteins are involved in cell-cell recognition. Membrane proteins may participate in the intercellular junctions that attach adjacent cells to each other. Membranes may exhibit selective permeability, allowing some substances to cross more easily than others. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 60

61 5.14 Passive transport is diffusion across a membrane with no energy investment
Diffusion is the tendency of particles to spread out evenly in an available space. Particles move from an area of more concentrated particles to an area where they are less concentrated. This means that particles diffuse down their concentration gradient. Eventually, the particles reach equilibrium where the concentration of particles is the same throughout. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 61

62 5.14 Passive transport is diffusion across a membrane with no energy investment
Diffusion across a cell membrane does not require energy, so it is called passive transport. The concentration gradient itself represents potential energy for diffusion. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 62

65 5.15 Transport proteins can facilitate diffusion across membranes
Hydrophobic substances easily diffuse across a cell membrane. However, polar or charged substances do not easily cross cell membranes and, instead, move across membranes with the help of specific transport proteins in a process called facilitated diffusion, which does not require energy and relies on the concentration gradient. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 65 65

66 5.15 Transport proteins can facilitate diffusion across membranes
Some proteins function by becoming a hydrophilic tunnel for passage of ions or other molecules. Other proteins bind their passenger, change shape, and release their passenger on the other side. In both of these situations, the protein is specific for the substrate, which can be sugars, amino acids, ions, and even water. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 66 66

68 5.16 Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane
One of the most important substances that crosses membranes is water. The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane is called osmosis. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 68

69 5.16 Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane
If a membrane permeable to water but not a solute separates two solutions with different concentrations of solute, water will cross the membrane, moving down its own concentration gradient, until the solute concentration on both sides is equal. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 69

70 Lower concentration of solute Higher concentration of solute

71 5.17 Water balance between cells and their surroundings is crucial to organisms
Tonicity is a term that describes the ability of a solution to cause a cell to gain or lose water. Tonicity mostly depends on the concentration of a solute on both sides of the membrane. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 71

72 5.17 Water balance between cells and their surroundings is crucial to organisms
How will animal cells be affected when placed into solutions of various tonicities? When an animal cell is placed into an isotonic solution, the concentration of solute is the same on both sides of a membrane, and the cell volume will not change, a hypotonic solution, the solute concentration is lower outside the cell, water molecules move into the cell, and the cell will expand and may burst, or a hypertonic solution, the solute concentration is higher outside the cell, water molecules move out of the cell, and the cell will shrink. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 72

73 5.17 Water balance between cells and their surroundings is crucial to organisms
For an animal cell to survive in a hypotonic or hypertonic environment, it must engage in osmoregulation, the control of water balance. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 73

74 5.17 Water balance between cells and their surroundings is crucial to organisms
The cell walls of plant cells, prokaryotes, and fungi make water balance issues somewhat different. The cell wall of a plant cell exerts pressure that prevents the cell from taking in too much water and bursting when placed in a hypotonic environment. But in a hypertonic environment, plant and animal cells both shrivel. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 74

76 5.18 Cells expend energy in the active transport of a solute
In active transport, a cell must expend energy to move a solute against its concentration gradient. The following figures show the four main stages of active transport. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 76

81 5.19 Exocytosis and endocytosis transport large molecules across membranes
A cell uses two mechanisms to move large molecules across membranes. Exocytosis is used to export bulky molecules, such as proteins or polysaccharides. Endocytosis is used to import substances useful to the livelihood of the cell. In both cases, material to be transported is packaged within a vesicle that fuses with the membrane. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 81

82 5.19 Exocytosis and endocytosis transport large molecules across membranes
There are three kinds of endocytosis. Phagocytosis is the engulfment of a particle by wrapping cell membrane around it, forming a vacuole. Pinocytosis is the same thing except that fluids are taken into small vesicles. Receptor-mediated endocytosis uses receptors in a receptor-coated pit to interact with a specific protein, initiating the formation of a vesicle. 82
