  1. Chapter 3 Cells and Tissues

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

  3. Inside and Outside of Cell Membranes • Intracellular fluid- solution inside the cell membrane; contains small amounts of oxygen and carbon dioxide gas, nutrients, and salt dissolved in water. • Interstitial fluid (extracellular)- solution continuously bathing the outside of our cells. Rich and nutritious fluid containing amino acids, sugars, fatty acids, vitamins, hormones, salts, wastes, and more.

  4. Structure of cell membrane • Lipid Bilayer -2 layers of phospholipids • Phosphate head is polar (water-loving) • Fatty acid tails non-polar(water-fearing) • Selectively permeable: Allows some molecules in and keeps other molecules out Phospholipid Lipid Bilayer

  5. Fluid Mosaic Model describes the cell membrane because of its flexibility and ‘mosiac’ of different molecules Polar heads love water & dissolve. Non-polar tails hide from water. Carbohydrate cell markers Membrane movement animation Proteins

  6. Animations of Active Transport & Passive Transport Weeee!!! high low This is gonna be hard work!! high low Types of Cellular Transport • Passive Transport • cell does NOT use energy • Diffusion • Facilitated Diffusion • Osmosis • Active Transport • cell does use energy • Protein Pumps • Endocytosis • Exocytosis

  7. Simple Diffusion Animation 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. • In the cell, solutes transported this way are either nonpolar (fat soluble vitamins, oxygen) or small enough to pass through (water and CO2). http://bio.winona.edu/berg/Free.htm

  8. Passive Transport: 2. Facilitated Diffusion A B • Facilitated diffusion: diffusion of specific particles through transport proteins found in the membrane • Transports larger or charged molecules • Channel proteins (pores) allow ions and amino acids to diffuse through the cell membrane • Carrier Proteins are specific – they “select” only certain molecules like glucose that fit into their binding site to cross the membrane Facilitated diffusion(Channel Protein) Diffusion (Lipid Bilayer) Carrier Protein • http://bio.winona.edu/berg/Free.htm

  9. Passive Transport: 3. Osmosis Osmosis animation • Osmosis:diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane • Water moves from high to low concentrations • Water is so small and there is so much of it the cell can’t control it’s movement through the channel proteins. • Solute (green) to large to move across.

  10. Osmosis Animations for isotonic, hypertonic, and hypotonic solutions Isotonic Solution Isotonic: The concentration of solutes in the solution is equal to the concentration of solutes inside the cell. Result: Water moves equally in both directions and the cell remains same size! (Dynamic Equilibrium)

  11. Osmosis Animations for isotonic, hypertonic, and hypotonic solutions Hypotonic Solution 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 (cytolysis)!

  12. Osmosis Animations for isotonic, hypertonic, and hypotonic solutions Hypertonic Solution Hypertonic: The solution has a higher concentration of solutes and a lower concentration of water than inside the cell. (High solute; Low water) shrinks Result: Water moves from inside the cell to the solution; Cell shrinks (Plasmolysis)!

  13. What type of solution are these cells in? B C A Hypertonic Isotonic Hypotonic

  14. Sodium Potassium Pumps (Active Transport using proteins) Types of Active Transport • Protein Pumps—carrier proteins that require energy to do work • Example:Sodium / Potassium Pumps are important in nerve responses • Three sodiums are needed to transport two potassium ions into the cell • Sodium ions are important to transport glucose into the cell

  15. Types of Active Transport • Endocytosis: taking bulky material into a cell • Uses energy • Cell membrane in-folds around food particle • “cell eating” • forms food vesicle & digests food • This is how white blood cells eat • Pinocytosis- engulfs extracellular fluid.

  16. Types of Active Transport Endocytosis & Exocytosis animations • Exocytosis:Forces material out of cell in bulk • membrane surrounding the material fuses with cell membrane • Cell changes shape – requires energy • Ex- hormone secretion, mucus, ejecting cell wastes
