Cell Membrane
2
Cell Membrane? Location? _______________ the cell Function? 1._______________ and __________ for the cell 2.Regulation of what ________ and _________ the cell WHY? -Essential in order to maintain *homeostasis within the cell *maintaining _________ internal conditions
3
Composition of Cell Membrane Phospholipid Bilayer 1._______________: Hydrophilic Head; “water-_________” Hydrophobic Tail; “water-_________” 2.Bilayer _______-layers (of phospholipids)
4
Composition of Cell Membrane ___________ embedded throughout phospholipid bilayer Integral Proteins: ______ the width of the cell membrane ___________ Proteins: Located on one side of the cell membrane (or on the ‘periphery’) A variety of different ________ of proteins within the cell membrane, each with different ___________
5
Composition ______________: another lipid that maintains the _____________ stability of the cell membrane Carbohydrates: allow for cell-to- cell ______________; a “fingerprint” for each cell Allows for the immune system to recognize ‘foreign’ cells and attack them Attached to proteins or phospholipids on __________ layer of cell membrane
6
Break it down: FLUID: The cell membrane is ___________ ________ due to the lipid “tails” on its interior; they “wiggle” This means that the cell membrane is pliable The cell membrane has the consistency of olive oil at body temp. MOSAIC: __________________ of different types, ________________ positioned throughout the membrane create a “mosaic” appearance The cell membrane is a constantly moving assemblage of parts. Fluid Mosaic Model
7
Transport of molecules from one side of the membrane to the other in order to maintain homeostasis within the cell. _____________ Permeable: Only _________ substances can move across the membrane while others cannot. _________, non-charged molecules (H20, CO2, O2, etc.) can ________ cross the cell membrane. This is referred to as Passive Transport: molecules are ‘freely’ or ‘passively’ traveling through the cell membrane This occurs through one of two ways: ___________ or ____________ diffusion Cell Membrane Function
8
Passive Transport: Diffusion No ____________ is required Diffusion: the movement of molecules from a __________ concentration to a _________ concentration until equilibrium is reached Concentration: the amount of solute in the solvent ___________: dissolved substance (in the solvent) solvent: the liquid containing the dissolved substance Equilibrium: occurs when the __________ concentration is the same throughout the system; ___________ on both sides of the membrane
9
A form of Passive Transport (so no _________ required) Facilitated Diffusion: ____________ molecules (that are unable to passively cross the cell membrane) are “carried” through via a channel protein. Specific protein channels carry specific types of molecules For example: __________ is transported across the cell membrane via facilitated diffusion Passive Transport: Facilitated Diffusion
