Cell Membrane
Notes

About Cell Membranes
• All cells have a cell
membrane
• Functions:
a.Controls what enters and
exits the cell to maintain
an internal balance
called homeostasis
b.Provides protection and
support for the cell

About Cell Membranes
• The cell membrane is
constantly moving
• Proteins, and other
structures move about
the cell membrane (like a
fluid)


What is the purpose of cellular
transport?
• The cell membrane regulates the
passage of materials into and out of
the cell
– Needed materials move in
• Glucose, oxygen, amino acids, etc.

– Excess materials move out
• Carbon dioxide, digested materials,
etc.

How?


• A cell membrane is semipermeable
(selectively permeable), meaning that some
substances can pass directly through the
cell membrane while other substances
cannot.
• Materials can enter or exit through the cell
membrane
by passive
transport
or active
So what needs
to get across
the membrane?

Passive Transport




cell uses no energy
molecules move randomly
The random motion of molecules
occurs along the concentration
gradient meaning molecules
spread out from an area of high
concentration to an area of low

concentration.

• (HighLow)


Three types:

3 Types of Passive
Transport
1. Diffusion – is the spreading out of
molecules across a cell membrane
until they are equally concentrated.
2. Facilitative Diffusion – diffusion
with the help of transport proteins
3. Osmosis – diffusion of water

Passive Transport:
1. Diffusion



Diffusion: random movement of particles
from an area of high concentration to
an area of low concentration.



Diffusion continues until all molecules are
evenly spaced (equilibrium is reached)



Note: molecules will still move around but
stay spread out.

3. Osmosis
• Osmosis: diffusion of
water through a
selectively permeable
membrane
• Water moves from a high
concentration of water
to a low concentration of
water
• More on this soon***

Osmosis
animation

Active Transport
• Requires the cell to use energy
• Actively moves molecules to where
they are needed
• Molecules move against the
concentration gradient - from an area
of low concentration to an area of
high concentration
• (Low  High)
• Three Types:

Types of Active
Transport

Sodium Potassi
um Pumps
(Active
Transport using
proteins)

1. Protein Pumps transport proteins
that require energy
to do work

Protein

molecules: this
requires

Types of Active Transport
2. Endocytosis: taking
bulky material into a cell by
forming a vesicle
• Uses energy
• Cell membrane infolds around food
particle
• “cell eating”
• forms food vacuole &
digests food
• This is how white blood
cells eat bacteria!

Endocytosis & E

Types of Active Transport
3. Exocytosis: Forces

material out of cell in

bulk
• Membrane surrounding
the material fuses with
cell membrane
• Cell changes shape –
requires energy
• Ex: Hormones or
wastes released from
cell

Revisited:
Passive Transport:
Osmosis
• Osmosis: diffusion of
water through a selectively
permeable membrane
• Water moves from a high
concentration of water to a
low concentration of water
• Because water is so small
and in such abundance,
the cell cannot control its
movement through the cell
membrane.

Osmosis
animation

Effects of Osmosis on Life
• Water moves freely
through through pores
(blue and white molecules)

• Solute (green) too large
to move across.
• Reminder:
–Solute: what is being dissolved
–Solvent: what dissolves the solute
• In salt water, the solute is the salt and the
solvent is the water

Hypotonic Solution

Animations for
isotonic,
hypertonic, and
hypotonic
solutions

Hypotonic: The solution has a lower
concentration of solutes and a higher
concentration of water than inside the cell.
(Low solute; High water)

Result: Water moves from the solution to
inside the cell): Cell Swells and bursts open
(lyse)!

Hypertonic Solution

Isotonic Solution

• Osmosis

isotonic,

solutions

Isotonic: The concentration of solutes in the
solution is equal to the concentration of
solutes inside the cell.

directions and the cell remains same size!

How Organisms Deal with
Osmotic Pressure



Paramecium
(protist)
removing
excess water
video

• Bacteria and plants have cell walls that
prevent them from over-expanding. In plants the
pressure exerted on the cell wall is called turgor
pressure.
• A protist like the paramecium has contractile
vacuoles that collect water flowing in and pump
it out to prevent them from over-expanding.
• Salt water fish pump salt out of their
specialized gills so they do not dehydrate.
• Animal cells are bathed in blood. Kidneys
keep the blood isotonic by remove excess salt
and water.
