Cell Transport
Cell • Cell- Smallest unit of life • Analogy:
Barrier to Entry
Cell Membrane • Functions: • Encloses, protects, regulates entry to cell
Cell Membrane • Properties: • Selectively Permeable: allows certain molecules in and out • Lipid Bilayer: two layers of lipids arranged in a certain way • Polar versus Nonpolar: has both a charged and a non-charged region
Movement across the membrane Two types: • Passive Mechanisms: Do not require cellular energy • Active Mechanisms: require cellular energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)
(Simple Diffusion) • Passive Transport • From high concentration to low concentration (across the concentration gradient) • Examples:
Facilitated Diffusion • Passive Transport • Requires carrier protein • Still from high concentration to low concentration • Molecules are too big to move across the membrane
Osmosis • Movement of water across a membrane • The solute does not move across the membrane
Filtration • Forcing molecules through a membrane (without energy) • Examples:
Passive Mechanisms • Write: • What are the main differences between the four of these mechanisms? • Share with a partner. • How are you going to remember them? !
Active Transport • REQUIRES ENERGY!
Active Transport • Goes against the concentration gradient • From lower concentration to higher concentration • Requires ATP • Utilizes carrier proteins • Examples: Sugar, Amino acids… larger molecules
Endocytosis • Molecules that are too large to enter, come in through a vesicle
Exocytosis • Secreting substances via a vesicle to the outside of the cell
Active Mechanisms • What are they? • Differences between the different types? • How are you going to remember them?
Concept Map time • Step 1: Generate a list of the words that you think are important from what was presented today. • Step 2: Sort them into categories • For example: Endocytosis: phagocytosis, pinocytosis, receptor-mediated endocytosis • Step 3: Connect- Organize the categories in boxes with arrows (so it looks like a concept map) • Step 4: Elaborate- we will discuss our concept maps
Questions • Which of the following processes includes all others? A. Osmosis B. Diffusion of a solute across a membrane C. Facilitated diffusion D. Passive Transport E. Transport of an ion down its gradient
Questions • An artificial cell consisting of an aqueous solution enclosed in a selectively permeable membrane has just been immersed in a beaker containing a different solution. The membrane is permeable to water and to the simple sugars glucose and fructose but completely impermeable to the disaccharide sucrose. Environment: 0. 01 M sucrose 0. 01 M glucose 0. 01 M fructose “Cell”: 0. 03 M sucrose 0. 02 M glucose • 1. Which solute(s) will exhibit a net diffusion into the cell?
