Cellular Membrane
Notes
About Cell Membranes
1. All cells have a cell
membrane
2.Functions:
a.Controls what enters
and exits the cell to
maintain an internal
balance called
homeostasis
b.Provides protection and
support for the cell
TEM (Transmission
electron microscopy)
picture of a real cell
membrane.
3.Structure of cell membrane
Lipid Bilayer -2 layers of
phospholipids
a.Phosphate head is polar
(water loving-hydrophillic)
b.Fatty acid tails non-polar
(water fearing-
hydrophobic)
c.Proteins embedded in
membrane

Fluid Mosaic
Model of the
cell membrane
What is the other name for the
Cell Membrane?
• Fluid Mosaic Model
• 4. Cell membranes have pores (holes) in it
a.Selectively permeable: Allows some
molecules in and keeps other molecules out
b.The structure helps it be selective!

Structure of the Cell Membrane
Cell Transport
• Cells need to:
– Take in things they need
– Get rid of the things they don’t need
– Communicate with one another
• Two main types
– Passive Transport
– Active Transport
Passive Transport
• The movement of materials across the cell
membrane without using energy
• Caused by concentration gradient
• Works in both directions
• Three types:
– Diffusion
– Facilitated diffusion
– Osmosis
Diffusion
• The process by
which molecules
spread from areas of
high concentration, to areas of low
concentration (Moving across the
concentration gradient)
• No energy is required
• When the molecules are even
throughout a space - it is called
EQUILIBRIUM
Diffusion across a membrane
• Permeable – membrane
through which molecules
can pass
• Move from high
concentrations to low until
equilibrium is reached
• Small, uncharged
particles (oxygen, carbon
dioxide, most lipids)
• No energy required
Facilitated Diffusion
• Molecules that cannot directly diffuse
across the membrane pass through
special protein channels
• NO ADDITIONAL ENERGY NEEDED
Facilitated Diffusion
• Ions & large
molecules (Cl- and
glucose)
• Protein channels
(“carriers”)
• Specific for each
ion/molecule
Osmosis
• Osmosis is the
diffusion of water
through a selectively
permeable
membrane down its
concentration
gradient
• From an area of high
water concentration
to an area of lower
water concentration
Osmotic Solutions
• Isotonic-
concentrations of
solute and solvent are
equal
• Hypertonic- higher
concentration of
solutes
• Hypotonic- lower
concentration of
solutes
•
Osmotic Pressure
The pressure required to prevent the
passage of water through a semi-
permeable membrane from a region of low
concentration of solutes to one of higher
concentration, by osmosis.
Cell walls create this
pressure this prevents
plant cells from
breaking
Osmotic pressure (again)
Active Transport
• Movement against a concentration gradient
• Requires Energy (ATP)
• Allows for stockpiling
• One direction
• Types:
– Molecular Transport (Protein Pumps)
– Bulk Transport (Endocytosis and Exocytosis)
Endocytosis
The process by which cells absorb
material (molecules such as proteins)
from outside the cell by engulfing it
with their cell membrane
• Two Types
– Pinocytosis
– Phagocytosis
Pinocytosis
• Movement of liquids
into the cell
Phagocytosis
• movement of solids
into the cell
Exocytosis
A cellular process where cells eject waste
products or chemical transmitters (such
as hormones) from the interior of the
cell.
• Exocytosis is similar
in function to
Endocytosis but works
in the opposite
direction.
