1 CELL (PLASMA) MEMBRANE
Chapter 4 Pg

2

3 Homeostasis Balanced internal conditions of cells
Maintained by cell membrane controlling what enters or leaves cell.

4 Cell (Plasma) Membrane
Function: Protective barrier Semi-permeable: Regulated transport of molecules in and out of cell

5 Cell (Plasma) Membrane
Function: Protective barrier Semi-permeable: Regulated transport of molecules in and out of cell Allow cell recognition Interact with the environment

6 Structure Phospholipid Bilayer - Two layers of phospholipids

7 Structure Phospholipid Bilayer - Two layers of phospholipids
Phospholipid contains: 2 fatty acid chains that are nonpolar (hydrophobic) Polar head (hydrophilic)

8 Structure Phospholipid Bilayer - Two layers of phospholipids
Phospholipid contains: 2 fatty acid chains that are nonpolar (hydrophobic) Polar head (hydrophilic) Fatty acid tails create a hydrophobic center

10 Membrane Structure 2. Membrane Proteins-embedded in the lipid layer a. Integral Proteins: extend through both sides of membrane

11 Membrane Structure 2. Membrane Proteins-embedded in the lipid layer a. Integral Proteins: extend through both sides of membrane Receptor Proteins: binds to substances outside the cell

12 Membrane Structure 2. Membrane Proteins-embedded in the lipid layer a. Integral Proteins: extend through both sides of membrane Receptor Proteins: binds to substances outside the cell Transport (channel) Proteins: Aids in moving substances across membrane Glycoproteins (with Carbs): cell identification

13 Membrane Structure 2. Membrane Proteins-embedded in the lipid layer b. Peripheral Proteins: only on one side of membrane -Enzymes (assist in chemical reactions)

14 Membrane Structure 3. Cholesterol in bilayer for strength

15 Blue Biology Textbook Draw Figure 4-10 Pg. 77 Draw Figure 4-11 Pg. 78 Cell membrane coloring
