2
Passive Transport Does NOT require any ATP or energy
Happens automatically Channels may be used in cell membrane
3
Passive Transport This type of transport moves from an area of high concentration to low concentration
4
Passive Transport Three types of passive transport Simple diffusion
Osmosis Facilitated Diffusion These processes DO NOT REQUIRE ENERGY
5
Diffusion Type of passive transport
When molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration until equilibrium is met
6
What affects the rate of diffusion?
Concentration of the solution Temperature of the solution Pressure also speeds up particle motion
7
Concentration The amount of dissolved solute in a solution
Molecules will move to an area less concentrated Molecules diffuse through the cell membrane of cells
8
Concentration gradient
The difference in concentration in a solution between a cell and its surroundings
9
Concentration Gradient
No gradient - even distribution Concentration to the right Concentration Gradient
10
Increase Rate of Diffusion
Temperature Molecules move faster in higher temperatures Pressure Increasing pressure also increases rate of diffusion
11
Equilibrium This occurs when there is no longer a concentration gradient Molecules are evenly dispersed but still continue to move randomly
12
Cell Membrane Movement through membrane
Cell membrane is surrounded by water Phospholipid bilayer
13
Cell Membrane Forms by itself in water Proteins imbedded Markers
Receptors Channels
14
Diffusion in cells Small molecules diffuse in and out of the cell to reach equilibrium on both side of the membrane
15
Osmosis Diffusion of water across a biological membrane
From an area of high concentration to low concentration of WATER Comparing concentrations
16
Osmosis in Cells Cells are surrounded and filled with water
Water can move freely through the membrane
17
Direction of Osmosis
18
Hypertonic Outside cell is more concentrated than the cell ex:
The solution with 20% salt is hypertonic compared to the 10% salt solution 10% salt solution inside the cell 20% salt solution outside the cell
19
Hypotonic Outside the cell is less concentrated than cell ex:
The solution with 10% salt is hypotonic compared to the 20% salt solution 10% salt solution outside the cell 20% salt solution inside the cell
20
Isotonic Equal concentrations ex: Equilibrium is reached
10% salt solution outside the cell 10% salt solution inside the cell
21
Osmotic Pressure Net movement of water into cells
Determined by solute concentration
22
Osmosis - hypertonic Higher solute concentration in solution
Ex: a cell in salt water When molecules are too large to fit through cell membrane or protein channels Water will diffuse OUT of the cell to reach equilibrium Cell shrinks
23
Osmosis - hypotonic Lower solute concentration in solution
Ex: a cell in pure water If molecules are too large to fit through cell membrane or protein channels Water will diffuse INTO the cell to reach equilibrium Cell swells - may burst!
24
Osmosis - Isotonic Equal concentration in solution
If molecules are too large to fit through cell membrane or protein channels Water will diffuse IN AND OUT of the cell to maintain equilibrium
25
Osmosis in Plant Cells Turgor Pressure
Pressure on the walls of the plant cells due to vacuole filling Increase in turgor pressure is due to an increase of water to cell Plasmolysis When a cell shrinks due to lack of water
26
Red Onion Cells - Isotonic
27
Red Onion Cells - Hypertonic
28
Red Onion Cells - Hypotonic
29
Facilitated Diffusion
When the cell membrane has protein channels (carrier proteins) where materials are transported in or out of cell NO energy needed for this process
30
Active Transport Against concentration gradient
From an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration Requires cell energy (ATP) because you’re going AGAINST concentration gradient
31
3 types of active transport
Three types of active transport Active transport Endocytosis Exocytosis These processes REQUIRE ENERGY
32
Active Transport Protein channels embedded in cell membrane
Gated channels Need energy to open Protein changes shape when energy is used
33
Sodium/Potassium Pump
Step 1: 3 sodium ions bind to carrier protein Step 2: ATP binds to carrier protein and changes shape allowing Na+ to move out of the cell Step 3: 2 potassium ions move into carrier protein Step 4: ATP binds to carrier protein and changes shape allowing K+ to move into the cell P in the cup – potassium in the cell
34
Sodium/Potassium Pump
35
Sodium Potassium Pump
36
Movement in Vesicles Endocytosis - INTO the cell
Cell membrane is used to create a vesicle around particles Phagocytosis Particle ingestion Pinocytosis Liquid ingestion
37
Movement in Vesicles Exocytosis - OUT of the cell
Vesicles created in the cell fuse with cell membrane and release particles/liquids Known as bulk transport
