1. Name the three basic parts of a cell and describe the functions of each. 2. Why do phospholipids organize into a bilayer – tail-to-tail – in a watery environment?
Hypertonic, isotonic, or hypotonic? 1. What type of fluid might be infused into the bloodstream of a patient who needs fluid drawn out from swollen tissues? 2. What type of fluid might be used (carefully) to rehydrate the tissues of extremely dehydrated patients? 3. In a U-tube separated by a selectively permeable membrane, there is.2 M glucose in Side A, and.4 M glucose in Side B. Side A is ____ compared to Side B, and Side B is ____ compared to Side A. 4. If the membrane in #3 is only permeable to water, what will happen?
Part 2: Membrane Transport
Interstitial fluid Interstitial fluid: Fluid outside cells Rich, nutritious “soup” – amino acids, sugars, fatty acids, vitamins, hormones, salts, wastes Selective Permeability Selective Permeability: Plasma membrane only allows some substances to enter cell Nutrients in, wastes out passive active By passive or active transport
No energy (ATP) needed down concentration gradient Molecules move down concentration gradient from HIGH LOW concentration Types: diffusion, filtration
Nonpolar & lipid-soluble substances Nonpolar & lipid-soluble substances diffuse directly through lipid bilayer Eg. O 2, CO 2, fat-soluble vitamins
Transport proteins Transport proteins (carrier or channel proteins) assist molecules across membrane Eg. glucose, amino acids, H 2 O, ions
Water-filled channels Eg. ions
Binds to molecule, changes shape, ferries it across membrane Eg. glucose transporter
Diffusion of H 2 O Aquaporins: Aquaporins: channel proteins for H 2 O passage
Ability of solution to change shape or tone of cells by changing water volume Isotonic Isotonic = equal concentration solutes Hypertonic Hypertonic = higher conc. of solutes Hypotonic Hypotonic = lower conc. of solutes
Energy (ATP) is needed!! against concentration gradient Move molecules against concentration gradient from LOW HIGH concentration Types: Primary and Secondary
ATP Directly uses ATP to drive transport Eg. Ca 2+ pump, H + pump, Na + -K + pump
Sodium-Potassium Pump
Move more than 1 substance at a time Symport Symport: 2 substances moved in same direction Antiport Antiport: 2 substances cross in opposite directions Eg. cotransport of sugars, animo acids, ions
vesicles Fluid & large particles transported across membranes in vesicles (sacs) Exocytosis Exocytosis: “out of cell” – eject substances Endocytosis Endocytosis: “within the cell”- ingest substances
Phagocytosis Phagocytosis: (cell eating) – engulf large or solid material eg. WBC engulf bacteria
Pinocytosis Pinocytosis: (cell drinking) – fluid w/dissolved molecules Eg. intestinal cells
Receptor-mediated endocytosis ligands receptor proteins Receptor-mediated endocytosis: concentrate specific substances (ligands) that bind to receptor proteins Eg. insulin, iron, cholesterol
