Cell Membrane Functions:
a. Controls what __ and __ the cell to maintain an internal balance called __.
b. Provides __and __ for the cell
enters
exits
internal balance
homeostasis
protection
support
What is the purpose of cellular
transport?
- Homeostasis depends upon __ of materials across the cell membrane.
– Required materials must pass into the cells so they can be
utilized. - Ex. __ and __ for cellular respiration
– Waste materials must pass out of the cells as they are produced - Ex. The CO2
produced as a waste product of __. - The cell membrane regulates the passage of materials
into and out of the cell.
– Needed materials move in
– Excess materials move out
appropriate movement
materials
oxygen
glucose
cellular respiration
Types of Cellular Transport
- Passive Transport: cell does ____.
1. __
2. __
3. __ - Active Transport: cell does __.
1. __
2. __
3. __
not use energy
diffusion
facilitated diffusion
osmosis
use energy
protein pumps
endocytosis
exocytosis
Passive Transport:
- cell uses no energy.
- molecules move ___.
- The random motion of molecules occurs along the __; i.e., molecules spread out from an area of __ to an area of __.
randomly
concentration gradient
high concentration
low concentration
Types of Passive Transport
1. Diffusion – is the __ of molecules across a __ until they are __.
- Facilitative Diffusion – diffusion with the help of __.
- Osmosis – diffusion of __.
spreading out
cell membrane
equally concentrated
transport proteins
water
Passive Transport:
1. Diffusion
* Diffusion: __ of particles from an area of __ to an area of __.
- Diffusion continues until all molecules are __ (__is reached).
Molecules will still move but stay spread out (__).
random movement
high concentration
low concentration
evenly spaced
equilibrium
net zero flow
Facilitated diffusion: diffusion
of specific particles along the __ (High Low) with the help of __ found in the __.
concentration gradient
transport proteins
membrane
Facilitated diffusion: diffusion
of specific particles along the
concentration gradient (High Low) with the help of transport proteins found in the membrane.
- Transport Proteins are __–
they “select” only certain molecules to cross the membrane. - Transports __ or __ molecules
that cannot pass through the membrane on their own. - __ is an example of a molecule that passes into the cell through facilitated diffusion.
specific
larger
charged
glucose
Osmosis: diffusion of water
through a __ membrane.
* Water moves from a __
concentration of water to a __
concentration of water.
- Because water is so __ and in
such __ the cell cannot control its movement through the cell membrane.
selectively permeable
high
low
small
abundance
Water moves freely through __.
- Solute too large to move across.
– Solute: what is being __
– Solvent: what __ the solute
- In salt water the _ is the salt and the __is the water
pores
dissolved
dissolves
solute
salt
water
Hypotonic Solution
Hypotonic: The solution has a __
of solutes and a __of water than
referent
lower concentration
higher concentration
Isotonic Solution
Isotonic: The concentration of solutes in the solution is __ to the concentration of solutes __.
Result: Water moves __ in both directions and the cell remains same size! (__)
equal
inside the cell
equally
dynamic equilibrium
How organisms deal with
osmotic pressure
- Bacteria and plants have __ that prevent them from overexpanding. In plants the pressure exerted on the cell wall is called __.
- 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 __by removing excess salt and water
cell walls
turgor pressure
isotonic
Active Transport
- Requires the cell to use __.
- Actively moves molecules to where they are needed.
- Molecules move __from an area of __ to an area of __.
energy
against the concentration gradient
low concentration
high concentration
(Low High)
- Protein Pumps -__ that
require __ to do work
- Example: Sodium / Potassium pumps are important in nerve responses.
Protein changes shape to move
molecules: this requires energy
transport proteins
energy
changes shape
