1 6.3 Transport

2 What do you predict will happen if food coloring is dropped into a beaker of water? Where are the molecules most concentrated to start? Where are the molecules less concentrated to? What is Diffusion? The movement of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration. 6.3 Transport: Predict the results

3 KEY CONCEPT Materials move across membranes because of concentration differences. What is a concentration gradient? Molecules move down a concentration gradient. Think of a slide. Would energy be required? 6.3 Transport

4 How is Diffusion Important for cells or your Body? For Cellular Transport  Medications, digestion, oxygen, carbon dioxide.

5 Passive transport : Molecules can move across the cell membrane through passive transport. Does not require energy input from a cell. There are three types of passive transport. Osmosis Facilitated diffusion Simple diffusion 6.3 Passive Transport

6 Diffusion and osmosis are types of passive transport. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane. 6.3 Osmosis

7 Diffusion and osmosis are types of passive transport. There are three types of solutions. isotonic 6.3 Osmosis Solutions hypotonic hypertonic

8 Some molecules can only diffuse through transport proteins. Some molecules cannot easily diffuse across the cell membrane. Facilitated diffusion is diffusion through transport proteins. Facilitated Diffusion

9 Facilitated diffusion: Diffusion of larger molecules through the protein channels in the cell membrane. Passive transport- no energy needed. Molecules move from ____ conc. to ____ conc. Examples include: glucose, water, ions.

10 Active Transport: Movement of molecules from______ conc. to ______ conc. Requires energy (ATP) Needs transport proteins Examples- Na/K pump, endocytosis, exocytosis.

11 Transport of Large Molecules: Vesicles used-  small membrane sacs; move products into, out, or within a cell. Exocytosis- Materials leave a cell.  vesicle containing the protein fuses with the plasma membrane and spills its contents outside the cell.  Example- release of insulin Endocytosis-Takes material into the cell.  vesicles bud inward from the plasma membrane  Examples- phagocytosis (solids)
