1 Transport of Molecules
Cell processes: Plasma Membrane Transport of Molecules Energy Conversion Protein Synthesis

2 Homeostasis Plasma Membrane functions:
Balance internal conditions of cells Maintain “Equilibrium” Plasma Membrane controls what enters & leaves cell. Plasma Membrane functions: Protective Barrier “Selectively/Semi Permeable”: Decides what to let in/out

3 Structure of Plasma Membrane
Lipids: structural component- phospholipid bilayer Proteins: structural support, communication, transport (channel or carrier) Carbohydrate: communication, cell recognition

4 Cell/plasma Membrane STRUCTURE

5 Passive vs active transport
What’s the biggest difference between the two?

6 Facilitated Diffusion
Passive Transport: Requires NO energy; molecules in constant kinetic movement Diffusion Movement of molecules from HIGH concentration to LOW concentration Ex: Oxygen moves into cell; Carbon Dioxide moves out of cell. Osmosis Diffusion of WATER across the cell membrane. Water diffuses from HIGH water potential (low solute) to LOW water potential (high solute). Facilitated Diffusion Diffusion of molecules through a membrane protein channel. Ex: Glucose molecules move into cell through transport protein. HIGH concentration to LOW concentration

7 Solutions that affect osmosis in cells
Isotonic: equal concentration of substances Cell stays same Hyptotonic: less solutes than inside cell Cell swells Hypertonic: more solutes than inside cell Cell Shrinks

8 LOW concentration to HIGH concentration
ATP Active Transport: requires Energy Molecules move against concentration gradient (LOW to HIGH concentration) ENDOCYTOSIS & EXOCYTOSIS Moving “big stuff” into & out of cell. Endocytosis: “INTO” materials brought in through a vesicle formed from cell membrane ex: food, large amounts of water. Exocytosis: “OUT” molecules moved out of cell by vesicles that fuse with cell membrane. Ex: wastes, hormones, Excess water Ion Pumps Sodium & Potassium pumped against their gradient using energy to drive movement of other molecules across membrane. Ex: nerve impulses

9 Photosynthesis Vs. Cellular respiration
Energy Conversions During Photosynthesis energy from the sun is converted to sugars (glucose C6H12O6) in the chloroplast. Cellular Respiration in the mitochondria breaks down sugars to release energy in the form of ATP for cells to use. Photosynthesis Vs Cellular respiration Photosynthesis Process Respiration Carbon Dioxide, Water, Energy (Solar) Reactants Oxygen, Glucose Products Carbon Dioxide, Water, Energy (ATP) Chloroplast Location Mitochondria

10 Energy is stored in Bonds
ATP Cells CANNOT use glucose…it must first be converted to Adenosine Triphosphate:

11 DNA RNA PROTEIN Double-strand “helix” Single-strand
Deoxyribose sugar Ribose sugar C/G & A-T Uracil instead of thymine Stays in nucleus Leaves nucleus Both made up of nucleotides Made up of amino acids Both carry genetic code Expressed as traits
