1 Why is this traffic across the membrane so important?
Cellular Transport How do cells move nutrients, products and wastes in and out of the cell? Why is this traffic across the membrane so important?

2 Cells are filled and surrounded by watery fluid.
This fluid helps solids move around inside, outside the cell and cross the cell membrane.

3 Cell Membrane The cell membrane controls what moves in and out of the cell.

4 Semi-permeable membrane
Cell membranes only allow some solutes (solids) to move across it. Movement across the membrane depends on size and type of the solute (solid).

5 Membranes are just so beautiful!!!!!

6 Types of Transport Down the concentration gradient Low concentration
High concentration Up the concentration gradient High concentration Low concentration

7 Summary: Types of Transport
Passive Transport Molecules move from area of high concentration to area of low concentration Movement is down the concentration gradient No energy needed Small molecules such as H2O, O2 and CO2 Active Transport Molecules move from area of low concentration to area of high concentration Movement is up the concentration gradient Energy is required (ATP) Large molecules, ions

8 Diffusion – molecules move from area of high concentration to area of low concentration.

9 Osmosis – water moves across membranes (diffuses) to where there is less water.

10 Concentrations affect Osmosis
Water moves out of the cell Water moves across membrane (in/out) at equal rates. Water moves into the cell

11 Red Blood Cells in Hypertonic solution (video)

12 Plants and Osmosis Hypertonic solution (video)

13 Concentrations affect osmosis
equal amount of solute in and out of cells higher amount of solute outside cells lower amount of solute outside cells

14 Let’s Review Solution is made of solutes dissolved in a liquid or gas.
Hypertonic Solution = high amount of solutes Hypotonic Solution = low amount of solutes Isotonic Solution = equal amount of solutes Dynamic Equilibrium is reached when solutes and water move across a membrane at equal rates because concentrations are equal (isotonic). Homeostasis = all living systems need to maintain perfect concentrations inside each cell Let’s Review

16 Test your knowledge On your left side, number 1-14 (short answer)
15 and 16 Extended answers required

17 1. Which side is hypertonic? 2. Why?
A B A B 1. Which side is hypertonic? 2. Why? 3. Can the solutes fit across the membrane? 4. How can you describe the membrane since it is very selective about what can move across? 5. How can both sides reach equilibrium? Lower concentration of solute (sugar) Higher of sugar Same concentration Selectively permeable mem- brane: sugar mole- cules cannot pass through pores, but water molecules can More free water molecules (higher concentration) Water molecules cluster around sugar molecules Fewer free water molecules (lower Water moves from an area of higher free water concentration to an area of lower free water concentration Osmosis

Cell membrane Selectively permeable Hypotonic Hypertonic Isotonic Passive transport Diffusion Concentration gradient Solution Solute Equilibrium/Homeostasis Active transport Membrane proteins Osmosis Osmoregulation Facilitated Diffusion ATP tendency of any molecule to spread out into available space diffusion of a substance across a biological membrane These help transport things across the membrane lower concentration of solutes passage of molecules and ions with transport proteins across a membrane down the concentration gradient movement of a substance against its concentration gradient with the help of cellular energy Membrane only allows certain things across Barrier made up of phospholipids and proteins that controls what enters and exits the cell When there are two different concentrations across a membrane. Molecules always move from high to low concentration without energy (ATP) equal concentrations of solutes the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane control of water balance Combination of a solvent and a solute equally mixed Molecule used in living systems for energy State where molecules move across the membrane at equal rates A substance being dissolved in another higher concentration of solutes
