CELL MEMBRANE 10. Cell Membrane SEMIPERMEABLE – ‘picky’ ○ Selectively permeable Phospholipid Bilayer ○ Hydrophobic tail ○ Hydrophilic head
4
The Cell Membrane AKA Phospholipid Bilayer, Plasma Membrane It is selectively permeable – Letting only certain substances through Why? 1. If they fit between the links of the membrane 2. If a concentration gradient is there 3. If they can mix with the membrane parts.
6
Explanation In the previous slide, I found images of different particles that either make up the membrane or need to get through it. Once I had the atoms the same size I shrunk them by the same amount so you could see what we mean when we say that a particle *won’t fit* through the membrane.

The Cell Membrane AKA Phospholipid Bilayer, Plasma Membrane If a cell needs a substance in it (like food) but the particle is too big, the particle may need a “doorway” to help it through or the cell may need to use energy to move it. THIS IS CALLED FACILITATED DIFUSION or ACTIVE TRANSPORT
15
Active Transport If a molecule is REALLY too big, Energy must be used to move it across the membrane. If a molecule is at a lower concentration, energy must be used to move it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STzOiRqzzL4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STzOiRqzzL4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kd3LorZcJew&feature =endscreen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kd3LorZcJew&feature =endscreen
