Homeostasis & Membrane Transport

Cell BoundariesAll cells are surrounded by a thin, flexible barrier known as the cell membrane. Many cells also produce a strong supporting layer around the membrane known as a cell wall.

Hydrophobic molecules pass easily; hydrophilic DO NOT

The cell membrane is made of 2 layers of phospholipidphospholipids called the lipid bilayerbilayer

SolubilitySolubility•Materials

that are soluble in lipids can pass through the cell membrane easily

Small molecules and larger hydrophobic molecules move through easily.e.g. O2, CO2, H2O

Semipermeable Semipermeable MembraneMembrane

Ions, hydrophilic molecules larger than water, and large molecules such as proteins do not move through the membrane on their own.

Measuring Concentration

A solution is a mixture of two or more substances.

The substances dissolved in the solution are called solutes.

The concentration of a solution is the mass of solute in a given volume of solution, or mass/volume.

Diffusion

Particles in a solution tend to move from an area where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated.

This process is called diffusion. When the concentration of the solute is

the same throughout a system, the system has reached equilibrium.

Simple DiffusionSimple Diffusion

• Requires NONO energy

• Molecules move from area of HIGH HIGH to LOWto LOW concentration

DIFFUSIONDIFFUSION

Diffusion is a PASSIVEPASSIVE process which means no energy is used to make the molecules move, they have a natural KINETIC ENERGY

Water tends to diffuse from a highly concentrated region to a less concentrated region.If you compare two solutions, three terms can be used to describe the concentrations:

hypertonic (“above strength”).hypotonic (“below strength”).isotonic (”same strength”)

Types of Transport Types of Transport ProteinsProteins

• Channel proteins are embedded in the cell membrane & have a pore for materials to cross

• Carrier proteins can change shape to move material from one side of the membrane to the other

Active TransportSometimes cells move materials in the

opposite direction from which the materials would normally move—that is against a concentration difference. This process is known as active transport.

Active transport requires energy.

Active Transport

Molecular TransportIn active transport, small molecules and

ions are carried across membranes by proteins in the membrane.

Energy use in these systems enables cells to concentrate substances in a particular location, even when diffusion might move them in the opposite direction.
