Phospholipids Give membrane hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties Phosphate – hydrophilic, face aqueous exterior or interior Fatty acid – hydrophobic, face each other inside the membrane Proteins Cholesterol, Glycolipids, and Glycoproteins
5
Phospholipids Proteins: many different roles Hydrophilic Have charged and polar side groups Hydrophobic Have nonpolar side groups Cholesterol, Glycolipids, and Glycoproteins
7
Phospholipids Proteins Cholesterol, Glycolipids, and Glycoproteins Cholesterol: resists changes in membrane fluidity caused by changes in temperature Glycolipids & Glycoproteins: have a carbohydrate attached; cell-cell recognition
9
Can Pass Through: Small, Uncharged polar Small Nonpolar Can NOT Pass Through (without assistance): Hydrophilic substances Large Polar Ions Water Note: Plant Cell Walls are made of cellulose and are external to the cell membrane. They are also found in Prokaryotes and Fungi.
11
Does not require the input of energy Net movement of molecules from high to low concentration Used to import resources and export wastes Water moves across the membrane through proteins called “aquaporins.” Osmosis: the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane. Tonicity: the ability of a solution to cause a cell to gain or lose water
12
Solutions outside a cell may be… Isotonic – same concentration of solutes as the interior of the cell; water moves across membrane at the same rate in both directions
13
KEY: term – exterior solution; effect – direction of water flow
14
Solutions outside a cell may be… Hypotonic – lower concentration of solute than the interior of the cell; water moves across membrane into the cell faster than it flows out, causing it to swell and lyse (burst)
15
KEY: term – exterior solution; effect – direction of water flow
16
Solutions outside a cell may be… Hypertonic - higher concentration of solute than the interior of the cell; water moves across membrane out of the cell faster than it flows in, causing it to shrivel and possibly die
17
KEY: term – exterior solution; effect – direction of water flow
18
Requires energy to move molecules from low to high concentration Free energy often from ATP Uses membrane proteins Example: Sodium-potassium pump
21
Exocytosis – internal vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane to secrete macromolecules out of the cell Endocytosis – the cell takes in macromolecules and other particles by forming vesicles from the plasma membrane
