1 Cell Theory The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life Organismal activity depends on individual and collective activity of cells Organismal activity depends on individual and collective activity of cells Biochemical activities of cells are dictated by subcellular structure Biochemical activities of cells are dictated by subcellular structure Continuity of life has a cellular basis Continuity of life has a cellular basis

10 Membrane Junctions Tight junction – impermeable junction that encircles the cell Tight junction – impermeable junction that encircles the cell Desmosome – anchoring junction scattered along the sides of cells Desmosome – anchoring junction scattered along the sides of cells Gap junction – a nexus that allows chemical substances to pass between cells Gap junction – a nexus that allows chemical substances to pass between cells

14 Passive Membrane Transport: Diffusion Simple diffusion – nonpolar and lipid-soluble substances Simple diffusion – nonpolar and lipid-soluble substances Diffuse directly through the lipid bilayer Diffuse directly through the lipid bilayer Diffuse through channel proteins Diffuse through channel proteins PLAY Diffusion

15 Passive Membrane Transport: Diffusion Facilitated diffusion Facilitated diffusion Transport of glucose, amino acids, and ions Transport of glucose, amino acids, and ions Transported substances bind carrier proteins or pass through protein channels Transported substances bind carrier proteins or pass through protein channels

16 Carrier Proteins Are integral transmembrane proteins Are integral transmembrane proteins Show specificity for certain polar molecules including sugars and amino acids Show specificity for certain polar molecules including sugars and amino acids

17 Diffusion Through the Plasma Membrane Figure 3.7 Extracellular fluid Cytoplasm Lipid- soluble solutes Lipid bilayer Lipid-insoluble solutes Water molecules Small lipid- insoluble solutes (a) Simple diffusion directly through the phospholipid bilayer (c) Channel-mediated facilitated diffusion through a channel protein; mostly ions selected on basis of size and charge (b) Carrier-mediated facilitated diffusion via protein carrier specific for one chemical; binding of substrate causes shape change in transport protein (d) Osmosis, diffusion through a specific channel protein (aquaporin) or through the lipid bilayer

18 Passive Membrane Transport: Osmosis Occurs when the concentration of a solvent is different on opposite sides of a membrane Occurs when the concentration of a solvent is different on opposite sides of a membrane Diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane Diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane Osmolarity – total concentration of solute particles in a solution Osmolarity – total concentration of solute particles in a solution Tonicity – how a solution affects cell volume Tonicity – how a solution affects cell volume PLAY Osmosis

21 Passive Membrane Transport: Filtration The passage of water and solutes through a membrane by hydrostatic pressure The passage of water and solutes through a membrane by hydrostatic pressure Pressure gradient pushes solute-containing fluid from a higher-pressure area to a lower- pressure area Pressure gradient pushes solute-containing fluid from a higher-pressure area to a lower- pressure area

22 Effects of Solutions of Varying Tonicity Isotonic – solutions with the same solute concentration as that of the cytosol Isotonic – solutions with the same solute concentration as that of the cytosol Hypertonic – solutions having greater solute concentration than that of the cytosol Hypertonic – solutions having greater solute concentration than that of the cytosol Hypotonic – solutions having lesser solute concentration than that of the cytosol Hypotonic – solutions having lesser solute concentration than that of the cytosol

23 Figure 3.10 Cytoplasm Extracellular fluid K + is released and Na + sites are ready to bind Na + again; the cycle repeats. Cell ADP Phosphorylation causes the protein to change its shape. Concentration gradients of K + and Na + The shape change expels Na + to the outside, and extracellular K + binds. Loss of phosphate restores the original conformation of the pump protein. K + binding triggers release of the phosphate group. Binding of cytoplasmic Na + to the pump protein stimulates phosphorylation by ATP.
