DiffusionDiffusion

The net movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration

High concentration Low concentration

Equal distribution

DiffusionDiffusion

Movement goes with the concentration gradient– From areas of high concentration to areas

of low concentration

OsmosisOsmosis

Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane

Goes with the concentration gradient

OsmosisOsmosis

Special terms for referring to strong or weak solutions

OsmosisOsmosis

Special terms for referring to strong or weak solutions– Isotonic: two solutions with equal

concentrations of solutes

OsmosisOsmosis


concentrations of solutes– Hypertonic: solution with high concentration

of solutes (strong solution)

OsmosisOsmosis


concentrations of solutes– Hypertonic: solution with high concentration

of solutes (strong solution)– Hypotonic: solution with low concentration

of solutes (weak solution)

When does diffusion/osmosis stop?When does diffusion/osmosis stop?

Never! When it reaches a homeostatic balance equal numbers of molecules are

moving in both directions!

Passive: goes with concentration gradient

Active: goes against concentration gradient


PassiveActiveEndo- and Exocytosis


Passive– Simple diffusion through the lipid bilayer– Simple diffusion through an ion channel– Facilitated diffusion

Simple diffusion through the lipid Simple diffusion through the lipid bilayerbilayerSmall, non-polar molecules

– O2 and CO2

OsmosisGoes with concentration gradient

Simple diffusion through an ion Simple diffusion through an ion channelchannelIons are highly polar and cannot pass

through the lipid bilayerIons are critical to cell functioning

– Na+, K+, Ca+, and Cl-

Simple diffusion through an ion Simple diffusion through an ion channelchannelPass readily through a water-filled pore

formed by an integral membrane protein

Simple diffusion through an ion Simple diffusion through an ion channelchannelMovement is bi-directionalChannels are specialized for a single ion Goes with concentration gradient

Facilitated DiffusionFacilitated Diffusion

Diffusion is aided by a carrier protein (integral membrane protein)


Molecule to be transported physically binds to the carrier protein on one side of the membrane

Protein undergoes a conformational change that does not require energy

Molecule is released on the other side of the membrane


Molecule is attracted to a specific carrier protein


Molecule binds to carrier protein


Carrier protein undergoes conformational change and releases molecule on other

side of membrane


Movement is bi-directionalCarrier proteins are specialized for a

single ion or moleculeGoes with concentration gradientPassive process

Active TransportActive Transport

Similar to facilitated diffusion– Molecule to be transported physically binds

to the carrier protein on one side of the membrane and is released on the other side of the membrane via a shape change of the protein


Goes against concentration gradientRequires energy input from the cell


Bi-directionalCarrier proteins are specialized to move

a single substance


Sodium-Potassium (Na-K) PumpCotransportCountertransportProton Pump (Next chapter)

NaNa++ - K - K++ Pump Pump

Cell needs low Na+ and high K+ relative to external environment

Ions are “pumped” into and out of the cell via an integral membrane protein

Na+ concentration becomes form of stored energy for cotransport

CotransportCotransport

Na+ is pumped into cell with concentration gradient

Simultaneously sugar or amino acid is pumped into cell against concentration gradient

CountertransportCountertransport

Na+ is pumped into cell with the concentration gradient

Ca+ or H+ is pumped into cell against the concentration gradient

Endo- and ExocytosisEndo- and Exocytosis

Used to move large amounts of materials into or out of a cell quickly

Requires energy

EndocytosisEndocytosis

Cell consumes large molecules or other cells

Cytoskeleton extends plasma membrane outward toward particle, encircles the it, and contracts membrane back inwards, engulfing particle


2 types– Phagocytosis– Pinocytosis


Phagocytosis: “Cell eating”– Cell takes in solid particles


Pinocytosis: “Cell drinking”– Cell takes in liquid materials

ExocytosisExocytosis

Cell excretes large wastesMechanism for releasing hormones
