Cell Transport
2
The Plasma (aka “cell”) membrane is made up of a lipid (generally phospholipid) bilayer
(two layers)
4
maintaining equilibrium in the internal environment
Homeostasis maintaining equilibrium in the internal environment
5
Diffusion Net movement of particles / solute from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Occurs because of the random movement of particles. Passive, slow process. Affected by: Temperature Concentration Pressure
7
solvent solute + = solution
8
Transport proteins provide larger openings in the plasma membrane through which particles can pass…
11
Passive, aided diffusion
A form of passive transport using transport proteins Carrier Protein Passive, aided diffusion
13
Osmosis: movement (diffusion) of water / solvent from High to Low concentration
VIDEO
15
Other Active Transport…
Endocytosis- process of taking material into the cell by means of infolding the cell membrane to form a vacuole Exocytosis- the membrane of a vacuole fuses with the cell membrane and expels its contents out of the cell
16
Types of Solutions Hypertonic- concentration of solute outside of cell is greater than inside of cell, water flows out, cell shrivels Hypotonic- concentration of solute inside cell is greater than outside of cell, water flows in, cell swells Isotonic- concentration of solution is the same inside and outside of cell, water flows equally in and out, cell remains same size
19
A: Hypertonic
20
B: Hypotonic
21
C: Isotonic
23
Levels of organization
Cells Specialization – cells throughout an organism developing in different ways to perform different tasks Blood cells transport oxygen Muscle cells have overdeveloped cytoskeleton Levels of organization Cell tissue organ organ systems Tissue groups of similar cells performing a similar function Organ groups of tissues working together Organ systems groups of organs working together
