The plasma membrane acts as a selectively permeable barrier that regulates what enters and exits the cell. It has a fluid mosaic structure consisting of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins. This structure allows small hydrophobic molecules to pass through the membrane freely via diffusion, while hydrophilic molecules require transport proteins like channels and carriers. Transport proteins help move molecules across the membrane through active or passive transport.

- 2. Membrane StructureMembrane Structure & Function& Function The selectively permeable plasma membrane acts as traffic control for the cell, allowing only certain things in at any given time
- 3. Cell Membranes are FluidCell Membranes are Fluid Mosaics of Lipids & ProteinsMosaics of Lipids & Proteins *Phospholipids are amphipathic- both hydrophobic & hydrophilic The structure & arrangement of the phospholipid bilayer is a result of the molecular properties of phospholipids
- 4. Membrane Structure ResultsMembrane Structure Results in Selective Permeabilityin Selective Permeability The fluid mosaic model explains how membranes regulate cellular traffic --it explains how form fits function Fibers of extracellular matrix Cytoskeleton Cytoplasm Attachment to cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix Cell signaling Enzymatic activity Transport Intercellular joining Cell-cell recognition Cytoplasm
- 5. The Permeability of the Lipid Bilayer Small nonpolar (hydrophobic) molecules can pass freely across the membrane Polar molecules pass through slowly or not at all; they require the aid of transport proteins
- 6. Transport Proteins Transport proteins are just as selective as the lipid bilayer. Two types of transport proteins: 1. Channel Proteins- a hydrophilic tunnel through which hydrophilic molecules & ions can pass through 2. Carrier Proteins- Hold onto molecules and change shape in a way that shuttles them across the membrane What kind of molecules will the transport proteins help moved across the membrane? Why?
- 7. Passive Transport is Diffusion of a Substance Across a Membrane With No Energy Requirement Molecules (above 0 K) are always in motion Diffusion is the tendency for molecules to move down their concentration gradient until a dynamic equilibrium is reached.
- 8. Passive Transport is Diffusion of a Substance Across a Membrane With No Energy Requirement O2 can diffuse into a cell from blood & CO2 can diffuse out and get carried back to lungs to be exhaled
- 9. Effects of Osmosis on Water Balance Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules from areas of high (free) water concentration to areas of lower concentration
- 10. Quick Think Oxygen & carbon dioxide can cross the lipid bilayer without help from membrane proteins. What properties allow this to occur? Water sometimes needs the help of a transport protein (aquaporins) to cross the membrane. Why?

Hypertonic: A solution that is relatively hypertonic contains more non-penetrating solutes than the solution that it is being compared to Hyper = More

Hypotonic: A solution that is relatively hypotonic contains fewer non-penetrating solutes than the solution that it is being compared to Hypo = less =solute
- 14. Quick Think Where will water move and why? 1. A cell placed in a 10% salt solution (that’s very salty). 2. A cell placed in distilled water. 3. A cell placed in an isotonic solution.
- 15. Water Balance of CellsWater Balance of Cells WithoutWithout Walls e.g. Animal CellsWalls e.g. Animal Cells Osmoregulation- The control of water balance within a cell. Various methods of osmoregulation are present in organisms that are specially adapted to living in hypertonic or hypotonic environments: Contractile Vacuole
- 16. Quick Think If a Paramecium were to swim from a hypotonic environment to an isotonic one, would the activity of its contractile vacuole increase or decrease? Why?
- 17. Water Balance of CellsWater Balance of Cells WithWith Walls e.g.Walls e.g. Plant CellsPlant Cells …Prokaryotes & Fungi Too! Hypotonic solutions, like rain, cause turgor (firmness) in plants because the cell wall pushes back against the intake of additional water after a certain point: Turgor= nice, healthy plant When plant cells are isotonic with their environment, they become flaccid
- 18. Water Balance of CellsWater Balance of Cells WithWith Walls e.g. PlantsWalls e.g. Plants In hypertonic solutions, cells with walls experience plasmolysis- they lose water to their environment until the cell membrane shrivels & pulls away from the cell wall. The result is a wilted & possibly dead plant (or other organism) = solute
- 19. Facilitated Diffusion: PassiveFacilitated Diffusion: Passive Transport Aided by ProteinsTransport Aided by Proteins Facilitated diffusion is the use of transport proteins, like channel & carrier proteins, to speed up the diffusion of molecules across a membrane. A specific type of channel proteins are ion channels which are often gated channels-the presence of a stimulus causes them to open/close Example- the presence of a certain neuro- transmitter, like acetylcholine, would cause the gated channels of a nerve cell to open and let Na+ into the cell
- 20. Quick Think List all the types of passive transport you can think of.

- 22. Active TransportActive Transport ATP energy can power active transport by binding one of its phosphates to the transport protein

- 26. Bulk Transport Across the PlasmaBulk Transport Across the Plasma Membrane Occurs by Exocytosis &Membrane Occurs by Exocytosis & EndocytosisEndocytosis Exocytosis: Transport vesicles from golgi apparatus move to cell membrane. The vesicle membrane fuses with the cell Membrane, and the contents is expelled out of the cell
- 27. Endocytosis: A section of the plasma membrane sinks inward & pinches off to form a vesicle that transports materials into the cell; Three kinds: Phagocytosis: “Cell eating” Pseudopodia of the cell membrane “reach out” & engulf particles. These particles are then digested when a vacuole fuses with a lysosome Pinocytosis: “Cell drinking” Part of the cell membrane caves in and gulps extracellular fluid & the molecules dissolved in it Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis: Allows for the bulk transport of specific extracellular particles. The vesicle forms only when certain ligands bind to receptor proteins on the cell membrane.
- 28. Quick Think The carbohydrates attached to some of the proteins and lipids of the cell membrane are added as the membrane is made and refined in the ER and Golgi. The new membrane then forms transport vesicles that travel to the cell surface. On which side of the vesicle membrane are the carbohydrates?
