Title: Cell Membranes


1
Cell Membranes Movement Across Them
2
Cell (plasma) membrane
  • separate cell from its environment
  • cell membrane is the boundary

IN food sugars proteins fats salts O2 H2O
OUT waste ammonia salts CO2 H2O products
cell needs materials in products or waste out

Building a membrane
  • How do you build a barrier that keeps the watery
    contents of the cell separate from the watery
    environment?

What substance do you know that doesnt mix with
water?
  • ? FATS ?
  • ? LIPIDS ?
  • oil water dont mix!!

7
Lipids of cell membrane
  • Membrane is made of phospholipids
  • phospholipid bilayer

phosphate
attracted to water
lipid
repelled by water
8
Semi-permeable membrane
  • Need to allow passage through the membrane
  • But need to control what gets in or out
  • membrane needs to be semi-permeable

So what needs to get across the membrane?
aa
H2O
sugar
lipid
salt
NH3
So how do you build a semi-permeable membrane?
9
Phospholipid bilayer
  • What molecules can get through directly?
  • small molecules

fats other lipids can slip directly through the
phospholipid cell membrane, but what about
other stuff?
lipid
salt
waste
aa
H2O
sugar
10
Permeable cell membrane
  • Need to allow more material through
  • membrane needs to be permeable to
  • all materials a cell needs to bring in
  • all waste a cell needs excrete out
  • all products a cell needs to export out

inside cell
lipid
sugar
aa
H2O
holes, or channels, in cell membrane allow
material in out
salt
waste
outside cell
11
Semi-permeable cell membrane
  • But the cell still needs control
  • membrane needs to be semi-permeable
  • specific channels allow specific material in
    out

inside cell
sugar
aa
H2O
salt
waste
outside cell
12
How do you build a semi-permeable cell membrane?
  • channels are made of proteins
  • proteins both like water like lipids

13
Protein channels
  • Proteins act as doors in the membrane
  • channels to move specific molecules through cell
    membrane

14
  • Most cell membranes are composed principally of
  • DNA and ATP
  • proteins and lipids
  • chitin and starch
  • nucleotides and amino acids

16
Movement through the channel
  • Why do molecules move through membrane if you
    give them a channel?

?

17
Molecules move from high to low
  • Diffusion
  • move from HIGH to LOW concentration

18
Diffusion
  • Move from HIGH to LOW concentration
  • passive transport
  • no energy needed

Diffusion
  • Move from HIGH to LOW concentration
  • through membrane
  • simple diffusion
  • no energy needed
  • through a protein channel
  • facilitated diffusion (with help)
  • no energy needed

25
Active transport
  • Cells may need molecules to move against
    concentration difference
  • need to pump uphill
  • from LOW to HIGH using ATP
  • protein pump
  • requires energy
  • ATP

OsmosisMovement of Water Across Cell Membrane
30
Osmosis
  • Osmosis
  • diffusion of water from HIGH concentration of
    water to LOW concentration of water
  • across a semi-permeable membrane

31
  • Normally, in the process of osmosis, the net flow
    of water molecules into or out of the cell
    depends upon differences in the
  • 1. concentration of water molecules inside and
    outside the cell
  • 2. concentration of enzymes on either side of the
    cell membrane
  • 3. rate of molecular motion on either side of the
    cell membrane
  • 4. rate of movement of insoluble molecules inside
    the cell

32
Keeping water balance
  • Cell survival depends on balancing water uptake
    water loss

33
Managing water balance
  • Balanced conditions
  • no difference between cell environment
  • example blood
  • problem none
  • water flows across membrane equally, in both
    directions
  • volume of cell doesnt change

balanced
34
Managing water balance
  • Freshwater
  • a cell in fresh water
  • example Paramecium
  • problem gains water, swells can burst
  • water continually enters Paramecium cell
  • solution contractile vacuole
  • pumps water out of cell

freshwater
35
Controlling water
  • Contractile vacuole in Paramecium

36
Managing water balance
  • Saltwater
  • a cell in salt water
  • example shellfish
  • problem lose water
  • plasmolysis in plants
  • shrinking cell
  • solution take up water

saltwater
