  1. Cells and Tissues

  2. Cell Physiology: Membrane Transport • Membrane transport— movement of substances into and out of the cell • Two basic methods of transport: • Passive Transport • No energy is required • Active transport • Cell must provide metabolic energy (ATP)

  3. Solutions and Transport Solvent + Solute = Solution dissolving + Components in = Homogeneous mixture medium smaller quantity of 2 or more components Parts of a solution:

  4. Solutions in the Body • Contain small amounts of gases, nutrients,and salts dissolved in water • Intracellular fluid – refers to both nucleoplasm and cytosol (“inter” = inside) • Interstitial fluid – fluid on the exterior of the cell

  5. Selective Permeability • Cells need to extract materials from the interstitial fluid as needed, but repel unneeded materials • The plasma membrane allows some materials to pass while excluding others • This permeability influences movement both into and out of the cell

  6. Passive Transport Processes • Diffusion • Particles tend to distribute themselves evenly within a solution; no energy required for movement • Movement is from high concentration to low concentration, or down a concentration gradient PLAY Figure 3.9

  7. Passive Transport Processes • Types of Diffusion: • Simple Diffusion • An unassisted process • Solutes are lipid-soluble materials or small enough to pass through membrane pores

  8. Passive Transport Processes • Facilitated Diffusion • Substances require a protein carrier for passive transport • Transports lipid-insoluble and large substances

  9. Passive Transport Processes • Osmosis • Simple diffusion of water • Highly polar water moleculeseasily cross the plasma membrane through aquaporins Video Clip: Active & Passive Transpoort

  10. Passive Transport Processes • Filtration: • Water and solutes are forced through a membrane by fluid (hydrostatic) pressure • A pressure gradient must exist • Solute-containing fluid is pushed from a high-pressure area to a low pressure area Video Clip: Active & Passive Transpoort

  11. Active Transport Processes • Substances are transported that are unable to pass by diffusion • Substances may be too large • Substances may not be able to dissolve in the fat core of the membrane • Substances may have to move against a concentration gradient • ATP energy is needed for transport PLAY

  12. Active Transport Processes • Types of active transport: • Active transport (solute pumping) • Vesicular transport • Exocytosis • Endocytosis • Phagocytosis • Pinocytosis PLAY

  13. Active Transport Processes • Solute Pumping • Amino acids, some sugars, and ions are transported by protein carriers called solute pumps • ATP energizes protein carriers • In most cases, substances are moved against concentration gradients

K+ isreleased to the cytoplasm andNa+ sites are ready to bind Na+again; the cycle repeats. Binding of cytoplasmic Na+to the pump proteinstimulates phosphorylationby ATP, which causes thepump protein to change itsshape. The shape change expelsNa+ to the outside.Extracellular K+ binds,causing release of thephosphate group. Cytoplasm Figure 3.11

  15. Active Transport Processes • Vesicular Transport • Exocytosis • Moves materials out of the cell • Material is carried in a membranous vesicle • Vesicle migrates to plasma membrane • Vesicle combines with plasma membrane • Material is emptied to the outside PLAY

  18. Active Transport Processes • Vesicular transport: • Endocytosis • Extracellular substances are engulfed by being enclosed in a membranous vescicle • Types of endocytosis • Phagocytosis—“cell eating” • Pinocytosis—“cell drinking”

  21. Cell Life Cycle • Cells have two major periods in their life span: • Interphase • Cell grows • Cell carries on metabolic processes • Separate stage from mitosis • Cell Division (Mitosis) • Cell replicates itself • Function is to produce more cells for growth and repair processes

  22. DNA Replication • Occurs toward the end of interphase • Genetic material is duplicated and readies a cell for division into two cells • DNA uncoils and each side serves as a template

  23. Cell Cycle Two Major Events of Cell Division • Mitosis—division of the nucleus • Results in the formation of two daughter nuclei • Cytokinesis—division of the cytoplasm • Begins when mitosis is near completion • Results in the formation of two daughter cells

  24. Stages of Mitosis — “PMAT” • Prophase (“Pro”- before) • First part of cell division • Centrioles migrate to the poles to direct assembly of mitotic spindle fibers • DNA appears as double-stranded chromosomes • Nuclear envelope breaks down and disappears PLAY PLAY

  25. Stages of Mitosis • Metaphase • Chromosomes are aligned in the center of the cell on the metaphase plate • Metaphase (“meta” = middle) • Chromosomes are aligned in the center of the cell on the metaphase plate PLAY

  26. Stages of Mitosis • Anaphase • Chromosomes are pulled apart and toward the opposite ends of the cell • Cell begins to elongate PLAY

  27. Stages of Mitosis • Telophase • Chromosomes uncoil to become chromatin • Nuclear envelope reforms around chromatin • Spindles break down and disappear

  28. Stages of Mitosis • Cytokinesis • Begins during late anaphase and completes during telophase • A cleavage furrow forms to pinch the cells into two parts
