Membrane Transport
2
Cell or Plasma Membrane
Composed of double layer of phospholipids and proteins (phospholipid bilayer) Surrounds outside of ALL cells Controls what enters or leaves the cell Living layer Outside of cell Inside (cytoplasm) Cell membrane Proteins Protein channel Lipid bilayer Carbohydrate chains copyright cmassengale
3
copyright cmassengale
Phospholipids Heads contain glycerol & phosphate and are hydrophilic (attract water) Tails are made of fatty acids and are hydrophobic (repel water) Make up a bilayer where tails point inward toward each other Can move laterally to allow small molecules (O2, CO2, & H2O to enter) copyright cmassengale
4
Cell Membrane Proteins
Proteins help move large molecules or aid in cell recognition Peripheral proteins are attached on the surface (inner or outer) Integral proteins are embedded completely through the membrane copyright cmassengale
6
The Cell Membrane is also referred to as the Fluid Mosaic Model
Molecules in cell membranes are constantly moving and changing copyright cmassengale
7
Structures Of The Plasma Membrane
Phosphate Head: Made of a phosphate group (polar and attracts water) Carbohydrate: Used for cell recognition Membrane Protein: Transports large particles across the cell membrane Cholesteral: Helps stabilize the phospholipids Lipid Tails: Made of fatty acids (non-polar and does not attract water)
8
Diffusion Movement of particles From high To Low
9
Diffusion Concentration: the mass of solute (what's being dissolved) in a given volume of solvent (what’s doing the dissolving) Equilibrium: the concentration throughout a solution is the same
11
Diffusion ● Concentration gradient: the difference in concentration across a barrier/membrane ● Because diffusion depends upon random particle movements, substances diffuse across membranes without requiring the cell to use energy
13
Osmosis Movement of water From high to low Across a selectively
permeable membrane -selects what moves in and out
14
Osmosis
15
Dynamic Equilibrium Equal concentrations are reached
Not the same volumes Continued movement across the membrane Not gain or loss
16
Osmosis ● Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable barrier. Water will tend to move across the membrane until equilibrium is reached, when this occurs the two solutions will be isotonic, the same. ● When a solution is more concentrated with solute it is said to be hypertonic, whereas a dilute (less concentrated) solution is said to be hypotonic. Pre-AP do the potato experiment with salt water Discuss osmotic pressure as a side discussion to the second question. For Pre AP may wish to perform potato lab with regular tap water and salt water.

Osmosis
18
Isotonic Solutions Iso- equal No change in concentrations
Water still moves Same amount of water moves in as moves out Both sides of membrane are the same
20
Hypertonic Solution Hyper- Over Out side of cell
More dissolved substance Less water Water moves out of cell
22
Hypotonic Solution Hypo- under Out side of cell Water moves into cell
Less dissolved substance More water Water moves into cell
24
Passive Transport Cell uses no energy From high to low Plasma membrane
Concentration gradient
25
Facilitated Diffusion
Type of passive transport Use transport proteins Channel proteins Carrier proteins Changes shape From high to low
26
Facilitated Diffusion
● During facilitated diffusion molecules that would not normally be able to cross through the membrane, such as glucose, diffuse across the membrane through selected protein channels. It is dependent upon the concentration gradient because it does not require the cell to expend any energy.
28
Active Transport Cell uses energy Against concentration gradient
From low to high Carrier Proteins Molecule binds with carrier protein Energy then used to change shape Molecule released on other side Carrier protein returns to original shape
29
Active Transport ●The movement of material across a membrane and against a concentration gradient is called active transport. Like facilitated diffusion this is carried out by protein channels in the membrane called transport proteins, however in this form of diffusion energy is expended in the process of “pumping” the material “uphill” against the gradient.

Active Transport Molecule to be carried Molecule being carried Energy
31
Large Particle Transport
● Endocytosis is the process of taking material into the cell by means of enfolding's, or pockets, of the cell membrane. The pocket or enfold, once it has surrounded the molecule, then closes and breaks off from the membrane forming a vacuole. Two examples of endocytosis are phagocytosis (cell eating) and pinocytosis (cell drinking). ● Exocytosis works the opposite of endocytosis. It is a vacuole with material designated to leave the cell which joins with the cell membrane then releases its material outside of the cell.
32
Large Particle Transport (Exocytosis and Endocytosis)
33
Large Particle Transport
Not through membrane Requires energy Exocytosis- out
35
Large Particle Transport
Endocytosis- in
36
Types of Endocytosis Pinocytosis: liquid (into) Phagocytosis: Solid (into)
