1. Homeostasis and The Plasma Membrane Agriculture Biology

2. Goals I can explain passive transport I can explain how diffusion occurs I can identify how water moves in and out of a cell through osmosis.

3. Passive Transport Movement across the cell membrane that does not require energy from the cell.

4. Process of Diffusion Diffusion - Movement of particles from higher concentration to low concentration (people move from big city to country for more space!!)

5. Equilibrium Diffusion is due to random movement of particles Colored ions evenly distributed in beaker, but ions still move and collide Dynamic Equilibrium- (movement balanced) – continuous movement but no overall change in concentrations in beaker

6. What happened here? Diffusion in action!

7. Diffusion Fertile eggs are injected at day 19 with pure dye into the opposite end of the air cell. The dye then diffuses into the yolk sac which is absorbed by the chick and becomes systemic. When they hatch…voila…Easter Chicks!! Who needs to dye eggs when you have dyed chicks!

8. STOP Write a summary of diffusion in your notes.

9. Osmosis- the diffusion of water Diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from high concentration to low concentration (passive transport) Cell will lose or gain water by osmosis depending on the water concentration outside of the cell versus inside of the cell

10. Osmosis in Action

12. Concentration Gradients Difference in concentration of substance is concentration gradient

13. Isotonic Solutions Amount of water going in= amount of water leaving

14. Hypotonic Solutions Amount of water going into the cell > amount of water going out of the cell CELL SWELLS

15. STOP Draw a picture of a hypotonic solution. IN>OUT CELL SWELLS

16. Hypertonic Solutions Amount of water going OUT> amount of water leaving the cell CELL SHRINKS

17. STOP DRAW A PICTURE OF HYPERTONIC SOLUTION OUT>IN CELL SHRINKS

18. Effects on Agriculture: Why is this important? The floral industry relies on osmosis to help carry dye up the stems of carnations and roses Growing plants, both ornamental and crops, is a science itself. Making sure that plants are irrigated properly will ensure more product which equals=====$$$$$$$ If the livestock and pet industries do not provide adequate fresh water for animals what happens to the cells? They shrink! This can be detrimental to the livestock industry with regards to “shrinkage” when selling cattle, etc.

19. Ticket out the Door 1. Explain passive transport. 2. What occurs during diffusion? 3. During osmosis, water is being passively diffused through what? 4. There are three outcomes of osmosis. Explain what happens to the cell when water moves out, moves in, or remains constant.
