  1. Cells and Tissues

  2. Cell Physiology: Membrane Transport • Membrane transport—movement of substances into and out of the cell • Two basic methods of transport • Passive transport • No energy is required • Active transport • Cell must provide metabolic energy (ATP)

  3. Solutions and Transport • Solution—homogeneous mixture of two or more components • Solvent—dissolving medium; typically water in the body • Solutes—components in smaller quantities within a solution • Intracellular fluid—nucleoplasm and cytosol • Interstitial fluid—fluid on the exterior of the cell

  4. Selective Permeability • The plasma membrane allows some materials to pass while excluding others • This permeability influences movement both into and out of the cell

  5. Passive Transport Processes • Diffusion • Particles tend to distribute themselves evenly within a solution • Movement is from high concentration to low concentration, or down a concentration gradient Figure 3.9

  6. Passive Transport Processes • Types of diffusion • Simple diffusion • An unassisted process • Solutes are lipid-soluble materials or small enough to pass through membrane pores

  7. Passive Transport Processes Figure 3.10a

  8. Passive Transport Processes • Types of diffusion (continued) • Osmosis—simple diffusion of water • Highly polar water molecules easily cross the plasma membrane through aquaporins

  9. Passive Transport Processes Figure 3.10d

  10. Passive Transport Processes • Facilitated diffusion • Substances require a protein carrier for passive transport • Transports lipid-insoluble and large substances

  11. Passive Transport Processes Figure 3.10b–c

  12. Passive Transport Processes • Filtration • Water and solutes are forced through a membrane by fluid, or hydrostatic pressure • A pressure gradient must exist • Solute-containing fluid is pushed from a high-pressure area to a lower pressure area

  13. Active Transport Processes • Substances are transported that are unable to pass by diffusion • Substances may be too large • Substances may not be able to dissolve in the fat core of the membrane • Substances may have to move against a concentration gradient • ATP is used for transport

  14. Active Transport Processes • Two common forms of active transport • Active transport (solute pumping) • Vesicular transport • Exocytosis • Endocytosis • Phagocytosis • Pinocytosis

  15. Active Transport Processes • Active transport (solute pumping) • Amino acids, some sugars, and ions are transported by protein carriers called solute pumps • ATP energizes protein carriers • In most cases, substances are moved against concentration gradients • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awz6lIss3hQ

K+ isreleased to the cytoplasm andNa+ sites are ready to bind Na+again; the cycle repeats. Binding of cytoplasmic Na+to the pump proteinstimulates phosphorylationby ATP, which causes thepump protein to change itsshape. The shape change expelsNa+ to the outside.Extracellular K+ binds,causing release of thephosphate group. Cytoplasm Figure 3.11

  20. Active Transport Processes • Vesicular transport • Exocytosis • Moves materials out of the cell • Material is carried in a membranous vesicle • Vesicle migrates to plasma membrane • Vesicle combines with plasma membrane • Material is emptied to the outside

  23. Active Transport Processes • Vesicular transport (continued) • Endocytosis • Extracellular substances are engulfed by being enclosed in a membranous vescicle • Types of endocytosis • Phagocytosis—“cell eating” • Pinocytosis—“cell drinking”
