2
Regulates what enters and leaves the cell, provides protection and support Double layered sheet called a LIPID BILAYER
3
The control of particle movement across the membrane Some substance pass freely through the membrane : water, glucose, oxygen Some substance pass with effort or require energy: charged ions like Na or K Other substances are not allowed to pass at all: large proteins or starch
4
There are so many different kinds of molecules in the membrane that it is called a “mosiac” Often called a fluid mosiac model.
5
Integral Proteins - permanently connected to the cell membrane, large sections embedded in the hydrophobic (middle) layer of the membrane ◦ Form protein channels ◦ Most common type of protein ◦ Receptors ◦ Help in cell adhesion
6
Channel Proteins - amphipathic proteins (one end polar one end nonpolar) that allow for ions to pass through the membrane down their concentration gradient Structural Proteins - these proteins anchor to surfaces and help with cell-cell adhesion Transport Proteins - proteins that change shape when they bind to a substrate and help facilitate diffusion of substances down their concentration gradient
7
Peripheral Proteins - not bonded as strongly to the membrane, may be attached to integral protein or sit on the surface ◦ Can help with transport ◦ Enzymes ◦ Target for toxins
8
Proteins on the outer surface act as recognition molecules to help the organism recognize its own cells. Proteins on the inner surface provide anchorage points for the cytoskeleton
9
Link to Cell Membrane Link to Cell Membrane So we built it, now what can it do????????
10
movement of molecules across the cell membrane and does not require energy dependent on the permeability of the cell membrane There are three main kinds of passive transport – ◦ Diffusion ◦ Osmosis ◦ Facilitated Diffusion
11
CONCENTRATION: Mass of solute/volume of solution Concentration gradient: the difference in concentration between a region of high concentration and a region of lower concentration ◦ (high concentration) – (low concentration) EQUILIBRIUM: when the concentration of the solute is the same throughout the system
12
DEFINITION: the movement of particles from an areas where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated diffusion animation diffusion animation EQUILIBRIUM: when the concentration of the solute is the same throughout the system

14
NO ENERGY IS USED ◦ Diffusion is based on random movement of molecules to reach equilibrium EVEN AT EQUILIBRIUM THE MOLECULES ARE STILL MOVING!!
15
1) Diffusion – 2) Osmosis
16
DEFINITION – the diffusion of WATER through a selectively permeable membrane In order to obtain EQUILIBRIUM, the water will cross from a high WATER concentration to a low water concentration. Water molecules can cross a membrane that large molecules may not be able to cross.

lettuce entertain you....
18
ISOTONIC – both sides of the membrane have equal concentrations, it has reached equilibrium HYPERTONIC – a higher solute concentration HYPOTONIC – a lower solute concentration
20
osmosis working
21
What does this mean to the cell??? ◦ Organisms MUST maintain osmotic pressure to survive Osmotic pressure – definition – the increase in pressure resulting from the flow of water in osmosis
22
THINK EGGS!
23
NO ENERGY!!!! MOVEMENT OF WATER ACROSS A SELETIVELY PERMEABLE MEMBRANE – JUST WATER!!!!!! ISOTONIC HYPERTONIC HYPOTONIC
24
1) Diffusion – 2) Osmosis 3) Facilitated Diffusion
25
DEFINITION - Movement of specific molecules across cell membranes through protein channels NO ENERGY IS USED! Works ONLY in the direction of the concentration gradient (high to low concentration) Membrane proteins are specific for the molecule
26
facilitated diffusion
27
NO ENERGY!!! Need a membrane protein to “help” the molecule across the membrane Works WITH concentration gradient
