Learn about cellular transport mechanisms, from passive to active transport, and the vital role of homeostasis in balancing internal and external environments. Dive into the structure and functions of cell membranes and the importance of cell transport in maintaining life processes. Discover the concepts of diffusion, osmosis, and fluid mosaic model.

Cellular Transport:Movement of substances into and out of a cell
BIG Ideas in Biology 4. Through a variety of mechanisms organisms seek to maintain a biological balance between their internal and external environments Homeostasis
Homeostasis= homeo-/homo- =same -stasis=stay • Expend energy to maintain internal conditions • Ex: If we all ran 5 miles on the track right now… • Body temp= 37oC or 98.6oF • Heart Rate
Brownian Motion/Movement: • the random movement of microscopic particles suspended in a fluid Particles MOVE!!!
Cell MembraneWhat’s inside?What’s outside? LIQUID!!!! LIQUID!!!!
Extracellular Fluid: Cells watery environment Outside Inside Intracellular Fluid: Cells liquid center/cytoplasm
Cell Membrane • Not rigid like… BUT… Fluid like…
Cell Membrane Selectively Permeable -Semi-permeable -Only lets specific selected items into or out of the cell
Fluid Mosaic Model -model of the structure of a cell membrane -discovered in 1972 by Singer and Nicolson
Cell Membrane Which type of lipid forms this structure? PHOSPHOLIPID A B C Polar A= Hydrophillic or water-loving B= Protein Channel (“secret passage way”) C= Hydrophobic or water-fearing NonPolar
Fluid Mosaic Model Hydrophobic-Non-Polar- (water fearing) Hydrophilic -Polar- (water loving)
Fluid Mosaic Model Why do we needcholesterolin our diet? Help make membranes!!!!
Components of the Cell Membrane Carbohydrate chains Used for cell recognition Phospholipidbilayer Type of lipid Contain pores/openings Proteins - receptor proteins - transporting proteins - adhesion proteins
Several types of proteins embedded in the bilayer: 1. Receptor proteins: act as a docking area for items to attach to like hormones
2. Transporting proteins: -transports items across the bilayer
3. Adhesion Proteins: -project outward from bilayer and help cells within a tissue to stick together
Cell Transport is needed for 2 reasons… • Get the INGREDIENTS for Photosynthesis and Cell Respiration 2. Get rid of WASTE products Carbon Dioxide and water O2 Oxygen and water CO2
Two Types of Cell Transport • Passive Transport: • Movement across the cell membrane (in and out of the cell) that does NOT require energy • Active Transport: • Movement across the cell membrane that NEEDS ENERGY
Passive Transport – Perfume Analogy • Raise your hand in the air • Mrs. Red will spray something in the front of the room • Put your hand down when you can smell it
All Molecules have motion: • Solid • small amount of energy & little movement (just vibrating) • Liquid • molecules gain some energy & some movement • Gas • molecules gain a lot of energy & a lot of rapid movement
Passive Transport Diffusion: • Random movement of molecules from an area of HIGHconcentration to an area of low concentration • RESULTS = Dynamic Equilibrium
Balloons • Why process does this represent? • What does the balloon represent?
Passive Transport • Concentration gradient: • Difference in concentration of a substance across a space • MUST EXIST for passive transport to occur • Equilibrium: • Condition when concentration of a substance is equal throughout a space • Molecules are still MOVING
equilibrium High low
Passive Transport • What diffuses across a cell membrane? • Small, uncharged molecules • Ex: O2 & CO2 Zooming in…
The rate of diffusion can be increased by: 1. Increase in temperature 2. Increase in surface area 3. Stirring or shaking
3 Types of Diffusion (Passive Transport) • Simple Diffusion • Osmosis: • AKA diffusion of WATER • Water moves from area of HIGH concentration to an area of low concentration • Facilitated Diffusion
Passive Transport: Osmosis • When does Osmosis stop? • Equilibrium…Osmotic Balance (Homeostasis) equilibrium
Solvent: Substance doing the dissolving (water) Solute: Substance being dissolved (salt) Solution: Created when the solute DISSOLVES in the solvent (salt water)
The direction of Osmosisis controlled by the concentration of the solution located Inside AND Outside the cell **Remember water moves from a HIGHconcentration to a lowconcentration** H L H L
3 types of solutions/environments: LOW • Hypotonic solution: • concentration of solute molecules Outsidethe cell is lower than the concentration of solute molecules Insidethe cell
Where will water move then? Why? Hypotonic Environment: Where is there more water? 98% water 2% solute Water enters the cell Turgor pressureincreases Cell swells in size=cytolysis 96% water 4% solute
3 types of solutions/environments: EQUAL • Isotonic solution: • concentration of solute molecules Outsidethe cell is equal t0 the concentration of solute molecules Insidethe cell
Where will water move then? Why? Isotonic Environment: Water enters and leaves the cell at an equal rate Turgor pressure remains constant Cell remains the same in size= osmotic balance (homeostasis) Where is there more water? 96% water 4% solute 96% water 4% solute
3 types of solutions/environments: HIGH • Hypertonic solution: • concentration of solute molecules Outsidethe cell is HIGHERthan the concentration of solute molecules Insidethe cell
Hypertonic Environment: Where will water move then? Why? 94% water 6% solute Water leaves the cell Turgor pressure decreases Cell decreases in size= plasmolysis Where is there more water? 96% water 4% solute
