What molecules move across the cell membrane?
Water diffusion is called osmosis. Oxygen is a small molecule and it's nonpolar, so it easily passes through a cell membrane. Carbon dioxide, the byproduct of cell respiration, is small enough to readily diffuse out of a cell. Small uncharged lipid molecules can pass through the lipid innards of the membrane

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

2. MOVEMENTS OF MATERIALS ACROSS PLASMA MEMBRANE
The plasma membrane mediates the movements of materials essential
electrolytes, nutrients, enzymes, etc. across the cell.
The processes involved in these movements may be classified mainly into 2types-
Passive Processes
Active Processes
Passive Processes:-
Substances move across the cell membranes without any assistance of the
cell.
It is done due to Kinetic energy of each individual molecule
It moves along the concentration gradient from an area of greater
concentration to an area of lower concentration.
The substances may also be forced across plasma membranes by pressure
from an area of higher pressure to an area where it is less.
3. Active Processes:-
In this the cell contributes energy in moving the substances across the
membrane since the substances moves against concentration gradient.
5. DIFFUSION
Movement of molecules or ions from a region of higher concentration to a region of
low concentration is -Diffusion.
This movement from higher concentration to lower concentration continues until
molecules are evenly distributed. This state is called as Sate of Equilibrium.
The difference between high and low concentration is called as Concentration
Gradient.
So in this particular mechanism movement of molecules is said to be along the
concentration gradient.
e.g. 1) Dye Pellet
2) Dispersible Tablet
6. FACILITATED DIFFUSION
This process is accomplished with the assistance of integral proteins in the
membranes which serves as carriers.
Some chemical substances even though insoluble in liquid can cross the plasma
membranes double lipid layer.
The rate of facilitated diffusion depends upon –
a) The difference in the concentration of substances on either side of the
membrane.
b) Amount of carrier available to transport the substances.
c) How quickly the carrier and the substances combines.
e.g. Glucose molecule - Movement of glucose molecule is greatly accelerated by
Insulin.
7.
8.
9. OSMOSIS
It is nothing but the net movement of fluid (specially water
molecules) through a selective permeable membrane from an
area of higher concentration of water to an area of lower
water concentration.
This water molecule pass through the channels made up in
the integrated proteins in the membranes.
e.g. A beaker containing pure water on one side and a
sodium chloride solution on the other both of which are
separated by a semipermeable membrane.
10. OSMOTIC PRESSURE
The amount of pressure required exactly to stop the
process of osmosis is called the Osmotic pressure.
To express the concentration of a solution in terms of
number of particles, the unit called is Osmole which is
used in place of grams. 1 Osmole is equivalent to 1 gram
molecular of undissociated solute.
OSMOLARITY
The osmolar concentration expressed as osmoles per litre
of solution and not osmoles per kilogram of water.
11. TONICITY OF SOLUTIONS
Isotonic solution:-
A solution in which the total concentration of water molecules and solute molecules
are same on both the sides of the semipermeable membrane.
Ex. 0.85% NaCl sol. Is isotonic for RBC.
Hypotonic solution:-
If ever RBCs are placed in a solution having lower concentration of solutes and higher
concentration of water, it is called as –Hypotonic solution.
In this condition water enters cells faster than it leaves, which causes the RBCs to
swell and eventually burst. This rupture of RBCs is called as- Hemolysis or Laking
of RBC.
12. TONICITY OF SOLUTIONS
Hypertonic Solution:-
This type of solution contains higher concentration of solute and lower concentration
of water rather than RBCs.
Ex. 10% NaCl sol. In this condition water molecules move out of the cell at a faster rate
than they enter. This causes the cell to shrink. The shrinkage of RBCs in this manner is
called as – Crenation of RBCs.
13.
14. FILTRATION
Movement of water and solutes across a
selectively permeable membrane from an area of
high hydrostatic pressure to an area of low
hydrostatic pressure is called as- Filtration.
This is seen at the arterial ends of the
capillaries where movement of fluid occurs along
with the dissolved substances from blood into the
interstitial fluid.
Ex. Glomeruli of kidneys
15. DIALYSIS
It is the diffusion of solute particles across a selectively permeable
membrane and involves separation of molecules from larger ones.
The patient’s blood is passed across a Dialysis machine outside the body. It
contains a selectively permeable membrane through which the patient’s blood is
passed through. The renal failure patient has enormous protein molecules and waste
products in his blood. As the blood passes through the membrane of dialysis
machine, small particles and waste products pass from the blood into a solution
surrounding the dialysis membrane and the filtered blood is then returned to the
patient’s body.
17. ACTIVE PROCESSES
1) Primary Active Transport:-
In primary active transport, the energy is derived directly by breakdown of ATP or
any other high energy phosphate compound.
2) Secondary Active Transport :-
In secondary active transport, the energy is derived secondarily from energy that
has been stored in the form of ionic concentration (common carrier protein).
In both above processes transport depends upon the carrier proteins that penetrate
through the membranes as like for the facilitated diffusion.
3) Special type of Active Transport
18. PRIMARY ACTIVE TRANSPORT:-
SODIUM-POTASSIUM PUMP
In this transport process sodium ions are actively transported outside the cell while potassium ions are
transported from outside to the inside.
This pump is responsible for maintaining sodium-potassium concentration.
Establishes the negative potential (electrical voltage) inside the cells.
Carrier protein:-
1) 2separate globular proteins
2) One larger subunit (100000) and a smaller subunit (55000).
It has 3receptor sites for binding sodium ions on the portion of the protein that protrudes to the
interior of the cell.
It has similar 2receptor sites for potassium ions on the outside.
The inside portion of this protein near to the sodium binding site has ATPase activity.
When 2 potassium ions bind on the outer side of the carrier protein and 3 sodium ions get bind on the
interior side of the carrier protein, the ATPase function of the protein becomes activated.
ATP ADP phosphate bond of energy.
This energy is then utilised to make a conformational change in the protein carrier molecule, 3sodium
ions 2potassium ions.
20. SECONDARY ACTIVE TRANSPORT:-
CO-TRANSPORT
Sodium ions are transported out of the cells by primary active transport, a large
concentration gradient of sodium usually develops.
Diffusion energy of sodium literally can pull other substances along with the sodium
through the cell membrane. This phenomenon is called as-Co-Transport.
Ex. Glucose and many Amino Acids.
21. COUNTER TRANSPORT
Transport mechanisms where transport of ions takes place in a direction opposite to the
primary ion.
Ex. Sodium-Hydrogen counter transport occurs in proximal tubules of nephrons in
kidneys.
SODIUM – HYDROGEN
SODIUM – CALCIUM
CALCIUM – MAGNESIUM
CALCIUM – POTASSIUM
24. ENDOCYTOSIS
Transport mechanisms where macromolecules enter the cell. Macro molecules
cannot pass through the cell membranes either by active or passive process. Such
substances are transported into the cell by endocytosis.
Endocytosis is of 3types:-
Pinocytosis
Phagocytosis
Receptor mediated endocytosis
25. PINOCYTOSIS
Macromolecules in the form of droplets of fluids
enter inside the cell. It is also called as Cell-
Drinking.
Macromolecules bind the outer surface of cell
membrane.
Cell membrane evaginates around the droplets.
Droplets are engulfed by the membrane.
Engulfed droplets converts into- vesicles-vacoules
also called as-Endosomes.
Endosome travels inside the cell and fuses with the
Lysosome.
It is then digested and degraded by the hydrolytic
enzymes present inside the lysosome.
26. PHAGOCYTOSIS
Larger macromolecules enter inside the cell. It is also
called as Cell-Eating.
When bacteria or foreign body enters the body, the
phagocytic cell projects towards it with the help of
pseudopodium.
The particles are then engulfed and converted into
vacuole called as- Phagosome.
Phagosome travels inside the cell and fuses with the
Lysosome.
It is then digested and degraded by the hydrolytic
enzymes present inside the lysosome.
27. RECEPTOR MEDIATED ENDOCYTOSIS
It is the transport of macromolecules inside the cell with the help of a receptor
protein.
Receptor protein – Clathrin, Caveolin
Ex. Hormonal action, Vitamin
29. STAGES OR MECHANISM OF ENDOCYTOSIS
1. Chemical attraction – Chemotaxis
2. Evagination – Pseudopods
3. Engulfing – Eating / Drinking
4. Vacoule formation – Endosomes
5. Presentation to Lysozyme
6. Hydrolysis & Disintegration
30. EXOCYTOSIS
It is the process in which the
substances are expelled outside the cell and
that too without any assistance of cell
membrane.
Mechanism:-
Calcium plays an important role in
release of some neurotransmitters causing
desired effects.
31. TRANSCYTOSIS
Invagination of extracellular substance
Vesicle formation
Moving of vesicle across the cell and expelled out through opposite direction
Involves receptor-coated pits
Receptor protein is caveolin and not clathrin
Also called – vesicle trafficking or cytopempsis
Ex. Human Immunodeficiency Virus
