Chapter 7Cell Structure & Function Section 7-3 Movement Through The Membranes
Objectives • What are the main functions of the cell membrane and the cell wall? • What happens during diffusion? • What is osmosis?
The Cell Membrane Key Concept: The cell membrane regulates what enters and leaves the cell and also provides protection and support
The Cell Membrane • The cell takes in nutrients and expels wastes plus cell products through the cell membrane • The Basic Structure Of Nearly All Cell Membranes Is The LIPID BILAYER
LIPID BILAYERS • Form Automatically When Certain Lipids Are Dissolved In Water • Tough Flexible Structure • Strong Barrier Between Cell Contents And Its Surroundings
Fluid Mosaic Model In Addition To The Bilayer, The Cell Membrane Contains: • Proteins That Form • Channels & Pumps • Proteins with Carbohydrates That Form • Antigenic Sites • Communication Sites
Diffusion • All Living Cells Contain And Are Surrounded By Liquid. • THE CELL MEMBRANE REGULATES THE MOVEMENT OF MOLECULES FROM ONE SIDE OF THE MEMBRANE TO THE OTHER
Cytoplasm Is A Solution Of Many Different Substances In Water
Solution A liquid mixture of 2 or more substances evenly mixed. • Solvent • The liquid in which the substances are mixed • Solute • Substances dissolved in the Solvent
Concentration Of Solution Mass of the solute in a given volume of solvent. Mass/Volumee.g. 12 g. of NaCl dissolved in 3L H2O = 12g./3 l. or 4.0 g/L
In A Solution Molecules Are Moving Constantly They Collide and Bounce off each other This causes them to spread out randomly Resulting In: Movement from an area of higher concentration to and area of lower concentration
DIFFUSION • Molecules move away from an area of Higher Concentration to area’s of Lower Concentration • Equilibrium • Concentration of a solute is the same throughout the solution
DIFFUSION Key Concept: Diffusion Causes Many Substances To Move Across A Cell Membrane But: Does NOTRequire The Cell To Use Energy
Diffusion & Cells • Substances that can diffuse across cell membranes will do so until equilibrium is reached • Diffusion continuesafterequilibrium but the rates in and out are equal
Osmosis • Permeable Membrane • Substance Can Easily Cross • Impermeable Membrane • Substance Can NOT Cross • Selectively Permeable Membrane • Some Substances Can Cross, Others Can Not
OSMOSIS Key Concept: The Diffusion Of WaterThrough A Selectively Permeable Membrane
The Tonics • Hypotonic • Less concentrated solution • Isotonic • Equally concentrated solution • Hypertonic • More Highly concentrated solution
Osmotic Pressure • Pressure exerted on the hypertonic side of a selectively permeable membrane • May cause cells to shrink or burst
Osmotic Pressure Cell Walls Contractile Vacuoles
Facilitated Diffusion • Molecules that can easily diffuse across the cell membrane: • Alcohol • Water • Small Lipids
Facilitated Diffusion • Other molecules can not pass through the cell membrane but still get into the cell. HOW?
Facilitated Diffusion • Thru Protein Channels in the Cell Membrane that allow a substance to cross. • Allows Diffusion In Both Directions • Each Channel Substance Specific • DOES NOT REQUIRE ENERGY
Facilitated Diffusion Protein Channel Is Substrate Specific Substrate Can Move Either Direction Depending On Concentration. Always from area of Higher Concentration to area of Lower Concentration!
Active Transport • Moves Material Across A Cell Membrane • Against A Concentration Gradient (from area of Lower concentration into an area of Higher concentration)
Active Transport Requires Energy
Active Transport • Endocytosis • Used to bring in large molecules, food, and whole cells • Exocytosis • Membrane surrounded material from inside the cell fuses with the cell membrane, releasing the contents.
