1 Essential Question: How do water and materials move in and out of cells? Diffusion Osmosis Facilitated Diffusion Active Transport Cell Transport

2 Cell Membranes Essential Question: How do cell membranes work?

3 Cell Membranes Function To enclose the cell and regulate what enters and exits Structure Lipid bilayer Contains embedded proteins a) channels b) pumps c) markers/signals

4 Cell Walls Function To protect and support the cell Structure Fibers of carbohydrate and protein – Ex: cellulose Porous – Water, gases, nutrients, etc. pass through easily

5 Cell Membrane vs. Cell Wall Membranes are semi-permeable: some substances can pass through but others cannot – Small: water, O 2, CO 2 – Large: proteins, carbs – “Selectively permeable”

6 A. Carbohydrate chain D. Lipid bilayer B. Protein marker E. Cytoplasm C. Extracellular fluid

7 Cell Transport Every living cell is surrounded by a liquid environment. In a solution, particles are always moving. Dissolved materials move across cell membranes in different ways.

8 Concentration concentration: mass / volume The amount of solute divided by the amount of solvent

9 Diffusion Movement of molecules from high to low concentration Continues until equilibrium: concentration is the same throughout Does not require energy Ex: air freshener Animation

10 Diffusion

11 Osmosis Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane Continues until equilibrium is reached Does not require energy **Occurs when solute does not pass through membrane Ex: wrinkled fingers Animation

12 Osmosis

13 Osmosis in Living Cells Essential Question: How does osmosis affect your cells?

14 Solutions Hypertonic: having a higher concentration of solute (“above strength”) Hypotonic: having a lower concentration of solute (“below strength”) Isotonic: having equal concentrations of solute (“same strength”) Water moves from hypotonic to hypertonic solutions! SALT SUCKS!

15 Osmosis Ex: celery in water; salt on a slug

16 What happens when a living cell is placed into a solution? It depends on the solution!

17 When a cell is placed in a solution… Isotonic Concentration is the same as the cell Zero net water movement Animal CellPlant Cell

18 When a cell is placed in a solution… Hypotonic Concentration is lower than the cell Net water movement into the cell Animal CellPlant Cell

19 When a cell is placed in a solution… Hypertonic Concentration is higher than the cell Net water movement out of the cell Animal CellPlant Cell

20 Osmotic Pressure There is osmotic pressure on the hypertonic side of a membrane This is because water flows in the direction of more solutes SALT SUCKS! So then why don’t cells burst?  Animal cells – bathed in isotonic fluids  Plants & bacteria – cell walls

21 Facilitated Diffusion Diffusion through protein channels Used for large or charged particles that cannot pass through the membrane High to low concentration Does not require energy Ex: glucose, K + and Na +

22 Facilitated Diffusion

23 Active Transport Movement of particles from low to high concentration Does require energy!

24 Active Transport Carried out by: 1) Protein “pumps” in membrane Ex: Ca + 2) Endocytosis and exocytosis Ex: food and wastes

25 Endocytosis –Taking material into the cell by folding in the cell membrane and creating a vesicle Exocytosis –Releasing material out of the cell by fusing a vesicle with the outer membrane

26 Active Transport

27 Exocytosis
