Diffusion, Osmosis & Cell Membrane Section 1.3 Pages 40-52
Cell Size Vary in size 10-100μm
Why don’t we have giant singled celled organisms running around WHAT LIMITS CELL SIZE? Why don’t we have giant singled celled organisms running around
WHAT LIMITS CELL SIZE? All cells need to exchange food, waste, and gases with their surroundings Limiting factor Surface area to volume ratio
SURFACE AREA TO VOLUME RATIo Surface area: area exposed to outside Volume: stuff in the middle What happens to the surface area and volume when a sphere gets larger???
GIANT CELLS DO NOT EXIST WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? It means that as a cell increases in size its surface area to volume ratio decreases So it is harder for things to Enter Exit GIANT CELLS DO NOT EXIST
Largest Single Cell
Animal Cell
Cell Membrane Cell membrane is selectively permeable Allows some things to pass through Prevents other things from entering Also called semi-permeable
Selectively Permeable CELL
Concentration Concentration is the amount of substance in a given space.
Dilute vs Concentrated
Diffusion
does not require energy Diffusion does not require energy allows for the movement of materials across the cell membrane
Diffusion Movement down a concentration gradient From HIGH concentration to LOW CONCENTRATION

Osmosis A special term that refers to the movement of water only down a concentration gradient
Osmosis Osmosis = Diffusion of water across a selectively permeable or semi-permeable membrane

Three examples of osmosis: 1 Three examples of osmosis: 1. Equal movement of water in and out = ISOTONIC
Three examples of osmosis: 2 Three examples of osmosis: 2. More water moving into cells than out = HYPOTONIC
Three examples of osmosis: 3 Three examples of osmosis: 3. More water moving out of cells than in = HYPERTONIC
Quick Question What should the solution in an IV bag be? Equal amounts of water entering or exiting cells [Isotonic] More water entering cells [Hypotonic] More water leaving cells [Hypertonic]
Equilibrium When the concentration on both sides of the membrane is the same, it is called equilibrium.
