2 Membrane Function –Working cells control the transport of materials to and from the environment with membranes. Transport of materials

3 Membrane Function –A closer look at our membranes

4 How do molecules cross a cellular membrane? Many small non-polar molecules can pass by diffusion –Oxygen (O 2 ), Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) –Water (H 2 O), although polar, is small enough to pass through Other charged and larger polar molecules cannot pass through and need membrane transport processes to do so. –Ions: K+, Na+, H+ –Small hydrophilic molecules like glucose, amino acids, nucleotides –Macromolecules like proteins and RNA

5 Passive Transport: Diffusion Across Membranes –Molecules contain heat energy. They vibrate and wander randomly - Brownian Motion. http://sv.berkeley.edu/chemicalinteractions/menu.html http://sv.berkeley.edu/chemicalinteractions/menu.html –Diffusion is one result of the movement of molecules. Molecules tend to spread into the available space. Diffusion is passive transport; no energy is needed. Water and small non-polar molecules like O2, CO2 travel across cell membranes through passive diffusion. http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__how_diffusion_works.html

9 Lab 3 - Osmosis and Diffusion Constructing a scientific argument –Re-state your claim/hypothesis –Support or refute it with evidence or counter- evidence from Verifiable observations, Verifiable measurements, and/or Reliable resources, other people’s data –If claim/hypothesis refuted, state an alternative hypothesis

10 Lab 3 - Osmosis and Diffusion Plasmolysis –View of Elodea cells

11 Water Balance in Cells Plasmolysis

12 –Osmoregulation is the control of water balance. Sodium-potassium pump essential to regulate cell volume through control of osmosis in many animal cells. –Water balance in plant cells is different. They have rigid cell walls. They are at the mercy of the environment. Turgid Flaccid

13 Passive Transport: Diffusion Across Membranes –Molecules contain heat energy.

14 –Another type of passive transport is facilitated diffusion, the transport of some substances by specific transport proteins that act as selective corridors. –Food molecule monomers like glucose and amino acids travel across this way. Facilitated diffusion –http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__how_facilitated_diffusion_works.htmlhttp://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__how_facilitated_diffusion_works.html

15 Active Transport: The Pumping of Molecules Across Membranes –Active transport requires energy to move molecules across a membrane. –Ions like Na+, K+, and H+ are often pumped across membranes against their concentration gradients. This requires active transport. Active Transport –http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__how_the_sodium_potassium_pump_works.htmlhttp://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__how_the_sodium_potassium_pump_works.html

16 Other Types of Transport - Exocytosis and Endocytosis: Traffic of Large Molecules –Exocytosis: Secretes substances outside of the cell. – Endocytosis: Takes material into the cell. – Phagocytosis and Pinocytosis

17 –Receptor-mediated endocytosis Is triggered by the binding of external molecules to membrane proteins.

18 OK, so now we know how molecules get into and out of the cell. How do we obtain energy from those food molecules once they are in there????

19 Flow of Energy through Cellular Respiration (Ch6)

20 Cellular Respiration: Feeling the Burn –When you exercise, Muscles need energy in order to perform work. Your cells use oxygen to release energy from food molecules. Picture from http://www.camping-field-guide.com/roasted-marshmallow.htmlhttp://www.camping-field-guide.com/roasted-marshmallow.html

21 Some Basic Energy Concepts –What is energy? –Energy is defined as the capacity to perform work. Work is done when an object moves against an opposing force. –Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. –Potential energy is stored energy.

22 Conservation of Energy –Energy can be changed from one form to another. However, it cannot be created or destroyed. This is the conservation of energy principle.

23 Combustion Cellular Respiration Chemical Energy: a form of potential energy found in fuels Living cells and automobile engines use the same basic process to make chemical energy do work.

24 Chemical Reactions –Cells constantly rearrange molecules by breaking and forming chemical bonds. These processes are called chemical reactions. –Chemical reactions cannot create or destroy matter, They only rearrange it.

25 Chemical Reactions Chemical reactions can store energy in or release energy from chemical bonds Energy released all at once in explosive reaction

26 Combustion Cellular Respiration Chemical Energy: a form of potential energy found in fuels Living cells and automobile engines use the same basic process to make chemical energy do work.

27 Is a type of kinetic energy. Is also a waste product of all energy conversions. Heat vs Temperature -->Heat is the amount of energy in a system -->Temperature is the average speed of the molecules in the system http://sv.berkeley.edu/chemicalinteractions/menu.html Water needs a lot of heat energy to raise its temperature because it needs to have energy to break the hydrogen bonds between them so that the molecules can speed up. Heat

28 Conservation of Energy –Energy can be changed from one form to another. However, it cannot be created or destroyed. This is the conservation of energy principle. Energy is converted to heat (air friction, vibration of molecules in the steps) Energy is converted to heat (air friction, water molecule movement)

29 Another example of heat generated during conversion of chemical potential energy to kinetic energy Energy derived from food molecules (chemical energy) is converted to muscle movement (kinetic energy). This conversion generates heat energy as a waste product.

30 Food Calories –A calorie is the amount of energy that raises the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. –The kilocalorie (or Calorie with capital “C”) is 1,000 calories. The unit used to measure the energy in food.

31 Potential (Chemical) Energy In Foods Kinetic Energy Used by Activities

32 Mitochondria and Cellular Respiration –The chemical energy of organic molecules is released in cellular respiration in the mitochondria. This energy is stored as another form of chemical energy, ATP.

33 Combustion Cellular Respiration Chemical Energy: a form of potential energy found in fuels Living cells and automobile engines use the same basic process to make chemical energy do work.

34 Cellular Respiration: Aerobic Harvest of Food Energy –Cellular respiration Is the main way that chemical energy is harvested from food and converted to ATP. Is an aerobic process—it requires oxygen. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

35 The Relationship between Cellular Respiration and Breathing –Cellular respiration and breathing are closely related. Cellular respiration requires a cell to exchange gases with its surroundings. Breathing exchanges these gases between the blood and outside air. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

36 The Overall Equation for Cellular Respiration –A common fuel molecule for cellular respiration is glucose. The overall equation for what happens to glucose during cellular respiration ReactantsProducts enzymes

37 The Role of Oxygen in Cellular Respiration Redox reactions: a transfer of electrons

38 –Why does electron transfer to oxygen release energy? It’s all in the chemical bonds! –Electrons held more closely to its atomic nucleus have lower energy than those held further away. –Oxygen LOVES electrons and keeps them close. –Thus, C-H and C-C covalent bonds have more energy than an O-H covalent bond –Glucose has many C-H and C-C bonds. –Water has two O-H bonds. –The energy in the chemical bonds of glucose is greater than the energy in the chemical bonds of water, therefore…. When electrons and H+ move from glucose to oxygen to form water, it is as though they were falling, thus, releasing their potential energy. Higher energy bonds Lower energy bonds

39 –Why does electron transfer to oxygen release energy?

When electrons and H+ move from glucose to oxygen to form water, it is as though they were falling, thus, releasing their potential energy. Higher energy bonds Lower energy bonds

41 NADH and Electron Transport Chains –The path that electrons take on their way down from glucose to oxygen involves many steps in order to release the energy a little at a time instead of all at once. Energy released all at once in explosive reaction Energy released a little at a time in cellular respiration

42 –The first step is an electron acceptor called NAD +. The transfer of electrons from organic fuel to NAD + reduces it (gains electrons) to NADH. –The rest of the path consists of an electron transport chain. This chain involves a series of redox reactions (gaining and losing electrons). These lead ultimately to the production of large amounts of ATP.

43 The Metabolic Pathway of Cellular Respiration –Cellular respiration is an example of a metabolic pathway, A series of chemical reactions in cells carried out by enzymes! –All of the reactions involved in cellular respiration can be grouped into three main stages: Glycolysis The citric acid cycle Electron transport

44 Enzymes –Metabolism is the sum total of all chemical reactions that occur in organisms. –Few metabolic reactions occur without the assistance of enzymes. Phospholipase A2 Active site: glsgs

45 Activation Energy –Activation energy Is the energy that activates the reactants in a chemical reaction. Triggers a chemical reaction to proceed. –Enzymes Lower the activation energy for chemical reactions by putting stress on the molecules.

46 Induced Fit –Each enzyme is very selective. It catalyzes specific reactions, or speeds up reaction rates without being consumed. http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__how_enzymes_work.html –Each enzyme recognizes a specific substrate. The active site fits to the substrate, and the enzyme changes shape slightly. This interaction is called induced fit. Enzymes can function over and over again.

47 Combustion Cellular Respiration Chemical Energy: a form of potential energy found in fuels Living cells and automobile engines use the same basic process to make chemical energy do work.

48 About 60% of your energy generates body heat. Why are we so inefficient?…Or are we? What do we need body heat for?….

49 The Metabolic Pathway of Cellular Respiration –Cellular respiration is an example of a metabolic pathway, A series of chemical reactions in cells carried out by enzymes! –All of the reactions involved in cellular respiration can be grouped into three main stages: Glycolysis The citric acid cycle Electron transport

50 Stage 1: Glycolysis –In the cytosol: A molecule of glucose is split into two molecules of pyruvic acid. –2 ATP and 2 NADH are generated

51 Stage 2: The Citric Acid Cycle –In the mitochondria: The citric acid cycle completes the breakdown of sugar into CO 2, high-energy electrons, and H+

52 –In the mitochondria: For the citric acid cycle, pyruvic acid from glycolysis is first “prepped” into a usable form, Acetyl CoA.

53 –In the mitochondria: The citric acid cycle extracts the energy of sugar by breaking the acetic acid molecules all the way down to CO 2. The cycle uses some of this energy to make ATP. High-energy electrons are carried away by NADH and FADH 2.

54 Stage 3: Electron Transport –In the mitochondria: Electron transport releases the energy your cells need to make most of their ATP.

55 –The molecules of electron transport chains are built into the inner membranes of mitochondria. The chain functions as a chemical machine that uses energy released by the “fall” of electrons to pump hydrogen ions across the inner mitochondrial membrane. These ions store potential energy.

56 –When the hydrogen ions flow back through the membrane, they release energy. The ions flow through ATP synthase. ATP synthase takes the energy from this flow, and synthesizes ATP.

57 The Versatility of Cellular Respiration –Cellular respiration can “burn” all sorts of food molecules:

58 Adding Up the ATP from Cellular Respiration

59 The Structure of ATP –ATP (adenosine triphosphate) Consists of adenosine plus a tail of three phosphate groups. Is broken down to ADP, accompanied by the release of energy.

60 Phosphate Transfer –ATP can energize other molecules by transferring phosphate groups. This energy can be used to drive cellular work. Chemical potential energy in ATP is converted to kinetic energy in order to a)Move proteins, b)Transport solutes against their concentration gradient, c)Rearrange bonds in chemical reactions. Heat is released in the conversion from potential to kinetic energy

61 The ATP Cycle –Cellular work spends ATP. –ATP is recycled from ADP and phosphate through cellular respiration.

63 –Aerobic metabolism –Anaerobic metabolism

64 –Aerobic metabolism Occurs when enough oxygen reaches cells to support energy needs. –Anaerobic metabolism

65 –Aerobic metabolism Occurs when enough oxygen reaches cells to support energy needs. –Anaerobic metabolism Occurs when the demand for oxygen outstrips the body’s ability to deliver it.

66 –Physical conditioning allows your body to acclimate to increased activity. The body can increase its ability to deliver oxygen to muscles and utilize it more efficiently. –If you exceed the ability of anaerobic metabolism to provide you with energy your muscles will fail.

67 Fermentation: Anaerobic Harvest of Food Energy –Some of your cells can actually work for short periods without oxygen. –Fermentation Is the anaerobic harvest of food energy.

68 Fermentation in Human Muscle Cells –After functioning anaerobically for about 15 seconds, Muscle cells will begin to generate ATP by the process of fermentation. –Fermentation relies on glycolysis to produce ATP. If fermentation continues for some time, H+ from acid will build up inside the cell, causing protein denaturation!

69 Fermentation in Microorganisms –Various types of microorganisms perform fermentation. Yeast cells carry out a slightly different type of fermentation pathway. This pathway produces CO 2 and ethyl alcohol.
