1 Cellular Transport All materials entering or leaving the cell must pass through which organelle?  Cell Membrane

2  Function  Provides support and protection  Semipermeable membrane that regulates what molecules and ions enter and leave the cell  Keeps the cell in a stable state called homeostasis  Cell recognition  Structure  Flexible, double-layered sheet called a lipid bilayer a.Comprised of hydrophilic phosphate heads and hydrophobic hydrocarbon tails

3  Proteins embedded in the bilayer act as channels and pumps that help move materials across the cell membrane  Carbohydrates attached to the proteins act as chemical ID cards, allowing cells to identify each other  Draw Figure 7-12 on page 182 in your textbook Outside of cell Inside of cell (cytoplasm) Cell membrane Proteins Protein channel Lipid bilayer Carbohydrate chains

4 C.Factors affecting membrane permeability 1.Size 2.Solubility in lipids 3.Ionic charge 4.Presence of carrier proteins

5 Do you understand the concept of concentration ? What is the concentration of the above solution? –20% Sugar solution What is the solvent? –Water What is the solute? –Sugar How can I make the solution more concentrated? –Add more sugar or less water Why don’t we call this an 80% water solution?

6 II.Passive Processes - No energy required A.Diffusion- movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low. B.Facilitated Diffusion - Carrier proteins assist the diffusion of materials (e.g. glucose) Which way will the ammonia flow?

7 Diffusion Movie

8 Which way will the water flow? H2OH2O H2OH2O H2OH2O C.Osmosis - The movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane in the direction of the highest solute concentration (aka - the diffusion of water).

9 Osmosis Movie  DRAW FIG 7-16, pg. 186

10 III.Active Processes - energy required A.Active Transport - the movement of molecules across membrane from low concentrations to higher concentrations (against the concentration gradient). 1.At rest, cells use up to 40% of their energy for this process. 2.Carried out by membrane proteins

11 Molecule to be carried Molecule being carried Energy  DRAW FIG 7-19, pg. 189

12 Active Transport Movie

13 B.Endocytosis - surrounding a substance with some of the cell membrane then bringing it into the cell within a vacuole. 1.Phagocytosis - Solids 2.Pinocytosis- Liquids C.Exocytosis – opposite of endocytosis.  DRAW

14 Endo/Exocytosis Movie
