regarding the fundamental understanding of the cell.

Prokaryote Cell membrane and cytoplasm but do not contain a

nuclei.

Eukaryote Taking small particles or molecules of liquid into the cell

through endocytosis.

Organelles Specialized structures that perform important cellular

functions.

Lipid Bilayer Tough flexible structure that forms a strong barrier

between the cell and its surroundings.

Concentration Mass or amount of a solute in a solution.

Diffusion Movement of molecules from an area of high

concentration to an area of lower concentration.

Selective Permeability This means that some molecules can pass easily while

other requires channels or added energy to pass through

the cell membrane.

Osmosis Easily allows the movement of water across the cell

membrane.

Facilitated Diffusion When a membrane protein is used to assist in moving

molecules across the cell membrane.

Active Transport Requires the input of energy and a protein channel to

move molecules in or out of the cell.

Endocytosis Process of taking materials into the cell by creating an in

folding or pocket.

Exocytosis Removal of large molecules or material out of the cell.

moving.

7-3 Cell Membrane, Osmosis and TransportParts of the Cell Membrane: (p. 184)

Diffusion vs. Osmosis:

Diffusion – Process by which molecules move from an area of high

concentration to low concentration. Diffusion will continue until equilibrium exists,

or when the concentration is equal throughout a space.

Osmosis - Movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane from

an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. This

will continue until equilibrium is reached. The water wants to DILUTE the SOLUTE

Type of Osmosis

Type of Osmosis Description Picture1. Isotonic Solution The amount of solute

concentration is equal on the inside as it is on the outside.

2. Hypertonic Solution Solution outside the cell has a high concentration of solute and a low concentration of water. Water moves out of the cell = shrinking

3. Hypotonic Solution

Solution outside the cell has a low solute concentration and a high water

concentration. Water moves in = turgor pressure or lyses the cell

Types of Diffusion – Movement of MOLECULES

o Simple Diffusion - passive transport of molecules across the lipid membrane.

Example: water across the cell membraneIf a molecule is TOO LARGE OR Moves AGAINST the Concentration then:

o Facilitated Diffusion - passive transport that uses Proteins to conduct diffusion of molecules across the membranes. This speeds up diffusion because the molecule is too large to diffuse quickly across the cell membrane.

Example: glucose molecules = too large

o Active Transport - movement AGAINST the concentration gradient. Requires and input of energy (ATP) in order to move the molecule from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration.

Example: sodium-potassium pump to create an electrical charge for cell function.

Diagram:

Forms of Active Transport:

Endocytosis – Process by which cells engulf substances that are much too large to enter the cell by passing through the membrane and are contained in a vesicle.

o Pinocytosis: movement of fluid particles into the cell

o Phagocytosis: movement of large food particles into the cell

Exocytosis - Exporting large molecules out of the cell. Remember the Golgi apparatus processes and packages proteins that sometimes need to by ship out of the cell.

o Proteins in the form of hormones or enzymes

REVIEW: 3 words or less!Fluid Mosaic = ALWAYS movingOsmosis = water movement

Isotonic = equalHypertonic = water in = swellsHypotonic = water out = shrinks

Diffusion = molecules movementSimple – passive through membraneFacilitated – passive through channelActive –ENERGY protein channel

Endocytosis – INTO the cellPino = waterPhago = food/molecules

Exocytosis = EXIT the cellWaste or products

Diffusion ApplicationName___________________________Block____________________Date________

Directions: Name the physical or physiological process involved in each of the following situation. Select carefully as each answer may be used only once! Choose form the following:

1. Turgor Pressure A person soaks celery in water so the cells swell. This makes it crisp before serving

2. Hypertonic solution(water in grass leaves for salt, cells shrink and die)

A person pours salt on the grass growing in the cracks in the sidewalk and the grass dies.

3. Active Transport (against the concentration gradient requires input of energy to move molecules)

Roots of broccoli absorb calcium even when their cells contain higher concentrations of Ca than the soil solution around them.

4. Diffusion When you wake up you can smell the coffee your mom or dad is making in the kitchen.

5. Hypotonic Solution – Water moves into the cells causing them to burst

A student studying blood places some cells in distilled water; they swell and burst.

6. Equilibrium A bottle of cologne is left open soon the odor and the other gasses in the room are evenly distributed through all the parts of the room.

7. Endocytosis As they invade your body, bacteria are engulfed by white blood cells as the cell membrane closes behind them.

8. What is meant by a concentration gradient? How does it affect the rate of diffusion? Draw a picture to explain you answer. Think about how an odor moves across a room.

Concentration gradient is the amount or concentration of molecules in one area compared to another area. Molecules are always trying to reach equilibrium so they continually diffuse or move across the gradient. For example the molecules of cologne are going to constantly move around the air until equilibrium is reached.

Osmosis Active Transport Turgor PressureDiffusion Equilibrium Hypertonic SolutionHypotonic Solution Endocytosis

9. What other factors that affect the rate of diffusion?

Concentration of molecules, concentration of solvent to solute, availability of protein channels and energy if needed.

10.Label the cell membrane diagram. 1 – Lipid Bilayer

a. Lipid headb. Lipid tail

2. Cholesterol signal3. Protein Channel (Facilitated transport)4. Carbohydrate signal5. Protein Channel (Active Transport)

11.Answer the following: A cell takes in two substances (A and B) which are present in concentrations lower outside the cell than inside the cell. Substance A is a large molecule needed by the cell. Substance B is a liquid droplet. Each substance enters the cell by a different process. Describe how each substance enters the cell using vocabulary from your notes.

Remember substance is lower outside than inside the cell so it WILL REQUIRE ENERGY to move the molecues into the cell.

Both Substance A and B will be taken in by ACTIVE TRANSPORT. Substance A – large molecule can be taken in by phagocytosis OR active transport through a protein channel.

Substance B – small liquid would be taken in by pinocytosis.

OSMOSIS and DIFFUSIONDefine the Following:

1. Diffusion - Movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration.

2. Semi permeable membrane – The means that some molecules can pass easily while others require channels or added energy to pass through the cell membrane.

3. Fluid Mosaic – The idea that lipids, carbohydrates and proteins and cholesterol that make up a cell membrane are constantly moving.

4. Osmosis – Movement of water across a semi permeable membrane

Complete the tableType of Solution ISOTONIC HYPERTONIC HYPOTONICEffect of a cell (choose words or use a diagram)

Remains the same Cell will shrink – lose water to the solution

Cell will swell – gain water from the solution

Freshwater protozoan such as a Paramecium must constantly pump out water to keep from bursting. What does this tell you about the solute concentration INSIDE the Paramecium compared to the solute concentration of its water environment?

The paramecium is in a hypotonic solution in the water environment. The paramecium has more solute inside than the water outside has so the water move across the membrane into the paramecium.

What would happen if you made the solute concentration outside the Paramecium the same as that of the inside?

It would then be in an isotonic solution and it would no longer need to pump water out.
