  2. Cell Membrane • Function—regulates what enters and leaves the cell • Core of cell membrane is a lipid bilayer. • In addition to lipids, most cell membranes contain proteins that run through the lipid bilayer.

  3. Cell Wall • Main function is to provide support and protection for the cell • Present in many organisms, including plants, algae, fungi, and many prokaryotes • Porous enough to allow water, oxygen, carbon dioxide through easily.

  4. Diffusion • Diffusion—causes many substances to move across a cell membrane but does not require the cell to use energy. • Substances move with the concentration gradient. From an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

  5. Osmosis • Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. • Selectively permeable—some substances can pass across while others cannot. • Water will move across the membrane until equilibrium is reached.

  6. Osmotic pressure • Hypotonic solution—concentration of the substance is greater inside the cell. • Hypertonic solution—concentration of the substances is greater outside the cell. • Isotonic solution—concentration is equal inside and outside of the cell.

  7. Facilitated Diffusion • Some molecules are too large to diffuse directly through the cell membrane. • Facilitated diffusion is the movement of specific molecules across cell membranes through protein channels. • Moves with concentration gradient • Proteins are specific to what they allow to cross. • Streaming video

  8. Active Transport • Movement of particles from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. • Requires proteins in cell membrane • Requires use of energy

  9. Movement of large amounts • Endocytosis—process of taking material into the cell by means of infoldings or pockets of the cell membrane • Phagocytosis—extensions of cytoplasm surround and engulf large particles. • Exocytosis—removal of large amounts of material from a cell.
