3
AP Biology Draw 13 boxes on a piece of paper In each box you will be writing an answer to a question found in this lesson. Write your answers in full sentences. I you would like to write this in Cornell style feel free. When you have completed the boxes turn your paper into the purple box
4
AP Biology Overview Cell membrane separates living cell from nonliving surroundings thin barrier = 8nm thick Controls traffic in & out of the cell selectively permeable allows some substances to cross more easily than others hydrophobic vs hydrophilic Made of phospholipids, proteins & other macromolecules
5
AP Biology Phospholipids Fatty acid Phosphate Fatty acid tails hydrophobic Phosphate group head hydrophilic Arranged as a bilayer Aaaah, one of those structure–function examples
6
AP Biology Phospholipid bilayer polar hydrophilic heads nonpolar hydrophobic tails polar hydrophilic heads
7
AP Biology More than lipids… It’s like a fluid… It’s like a mosaic… It’s the Fluid Mosaic Model!
8
AP Biology Membrane fat composition varies Fat composition affects flexibility membrane must be fluid & flexible about as fluid as thick salad oil % unsaturated fatty acids in phospholipids keep membrane less viscous cold-adapted organisms, like winter wheat increase % in autumn cholesterol in membrane In 1972, S.J. Singer & G. Nicolson proposed that membrane proteins are inserted into the phospholipid bilayer
9
AP Biology Membrane is a collage of proteins & other molecules embedded in the fluid matrix of the lipid bilayer Extracellular fluid Cholesterol Cytoplasm Glycolipid Transmembrane proteins Filaments of cytoskeleton Peripheral protein Glycoprotein Phospholipids

AP Biology A B C D
11
Summarize the structure of the plasma membrane. Write your answer in box #1
12
AP Biology One of these is not like the others… Write your answer in Box #2 Lipids Proteins Carbs Cholesterol
13
AP Biology Membrane Proteins Proteins determine membrane’s specific functions cell membrane & organelle membranes each have unique collections of proteins Membrane proteins: peripheral proteins loosely bound to surface of membrane cell surface identity marker (antigens) integral proteins penetrate lipid bilayer, usually across whole membrane transmembrane protein transport proteins channels, permeases (pumps)
14
AP Biology A B
15
2007-2008 Why are proteins the perfect molecule to build structures in the cell membrane?
16
AP Biology Classes of amino acids What do these amino acids have in common? nonpolar & hydrophobic
17
AP Biology Classes of amino acids What do these amino acids have in common? polar & hydrophilic I like the polar ones the best!
18
AP Biology Proteins domains anchor molecule Within membrane nonpolar amino acids hydrophobic anchors protein into membrane On outer surfaces of membrane polar amino acids hydrophilic extend into extracellular fluid & into cytosol Polar areas of protein Nonpolar areas of protein
19
AP Biology Describe the structure of an intergral protein. Write your answer in box #3
20
AP Biology NH 2 H+H+ COOH Cytoplasm Retinal chromophore Nonpolar (hydrophobic) -helices in the cell membrane H+H+ Porin monomer -pleated sheets Bacterial outer membrane proton pump channel in photosynthetic bacteria water channel in bacteria function through conformational change = shape change Examples
21
AP Biology Many Functions of Membrane Proteins Outside Plasma membrane Inside Transporter Cell surface receptor Enzyme activity Cell surface identity marker Attachment to the cytoskeleton Cell adhesion
22
AP Biology In box #4, write down the functions of membrane proteins.
23
AP Biology Membrane carbohydrates Play a key role in cell-cell recognition ability of a cell to distinguish one cell from another antigens important in organ & tissue development basis for rejection of foreign cells by immune system
24
AP Biology Any Questions??

AP Biology 2007-2008
26
AP Biology Diffusion 2nd Law of Thermodynamics governs biological systems universe tends towards disorder (entropy) Diffusion movement from high low concentration Diffusion movement from high low concentration
27
AP Biology Diffusion Move from HIGH to LOW concentration “passive transport” no energy needed diffusionosmosis movement of water
28
AP Biology Diffusion across cell membrane Cell membrane is the boundary between inside & outside… separates cell from its environment IN food carbohydrates sugars, proteins amino acids lipids salts, O 2, H 2 O OUT waste ammonia salts CO 2 H2OH2O products cell needs materials in & products or waste out IN OUT Can it be an impenetrable boundary? NO!
29
AP Biology Diffusion through phospholipid bilayer What molecules can get through directly? fats & other lipids inside cell outside cell lipid salt aa H2OH2O sugar NH 3 What molecules can NOT get through directly? polar molecules H2OH2O ions salts, ammonia large molecules starches, proteins
30
AP Biology Summarize what can and cannot cross through the membrane in box #5.
31
AP Biology Channels through cell membrane Membrane becomes semi-permeable with protein channels specific channels allow specific material across cell membrane inside cell outside cell sugaraa H2OH2O salt NH 3
32
AP Biology Facilitated Diffusion Diffusion through protein channels channels move specific molecules across cell membrane no energy needed “The Bouncer” open channel = fast transport facilitated = with help high low
33
AP Biology Active Transport “The Doorman” conformational change Cells may need to move molecules against concentration gradient shape change transports solute from one side of membrane to other protein “pump” “costs” energy = ATP ATP low high
34
AP Biology What are two differences between active transport and facilitated diffusion? Write your answer in box #6
35
AP Biology symportantiport Active transport Many models & mechanisms ATP
36
AP Biology Getting through cell membrane Passive Transport Simple diffusion diffusion of nonpolar, hydrophobic molecules lipids high low concentration gradient Facilitated transport diffusion of polar, hydrophilic molecules through a protein channel high low concentration gradient Active transport diffusion against concentration gradient low high uses a protein pump requires ATP ATP
37
AP Biology Transport summary simple diffusion facilitated diffusion active transport ATP

One of these is not like the others… Write your answer in box # 7 Diffusion Facilitated diffusion Passive transport Active transport
40
AP Biology How about large molecules? Moving large molecules into & out of cell through vesicles & vacuoles endocytosis phagocytosis = “cellular eating” pinocytosis = “cellular drinking” exocytosis exocytosis
41
AP Biology Endocytosis phagocytosis pinocytosis receptor-mediated endocytosis fuse with lysosome for digestion non-specific process triggered by molecular signal
42
AP Biology One of these is not like the others… Write your answer in box #8 Exocytosis Endocytosis Phagocytosis Pinocytosis
43
AP Biology 2007-2008 The Special Case of Water Movement of water across the cell membrane
44
AP Biology Osmosis is diffusion of water Water is very important to life, so we talk about water separately Diffusion of water from high concentration of water to low concentration of water across a semi-permeable membrane
45
AP Biology
46

47
Concentration of water Direction of osmosis is determined by comparing total solute concentrations Hypertonic - more solute, less water Hypotonic - less solute, more water Isotonic - equal solute, equal water hypotonichypertonic water net movement of water
48
AP Biology In box #9, I want you to think/reflect on how you are going to remember that hyper = more solute hypo = less solute iso = equal solute
49
AP Biology freshwaterbalancedsaltwater Managing water balance Cell survival depends on balancing water uptake & loss
50
AP Biology Managing water balance Isotonic animal cell immersed in mild salt solution example: blood cells in blood plasma problem: none no net movement of water flows across membrane equally, in both directions volume of cell is stable balanced
51
AP Biology Managing water balance Hypotonic a cell in fresh water example: Paramecium problem: gains water, swells & can burst water continually enters Paramecium cell solution: contractile vacuole pumps water out of cell ATP plant cells turgid freshwater ATP
52
AP Biology Water regulation Contractile vacuole in Paramecium ATP
53
AP Biology Managing water balance Hypertonic a cell in salt water example: shellfish problem: lose water & die solution: take up water or pump out salt plant cells plasmolysis = wilt saltwater
