This document discusses cell membranes and movement across them. It explains that cell membranes are made of phospholipids arranged in a bilayer that acts as a semi-permeable barrier. Materials can cross the membrane through simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion using membrane channels, or active transport using protein pumps. Water specifically crosses by osmosis, moving from high to low concentration areas. Cells need to regulate water movement to avoid bursting in hypotonic solutions or shriveling in hypertonic solutions, maintaining an isotonic balance.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Cell (plasma) membrane
Cells need an inside & an outside…
separate cell from its environment
cell membrane is the boundary
IN
food
- sugars
- proteins
- fats
salts
O2
H2O
Regents Biology
OUT
waste
- ammonia
- salts
- CO2
- H2O
products
- proteins
cell needs materials in & products or waste out
3. Building a membrane
How do you build a barrier that keeps
the watery contents of the cell separate
from the watery environment?
What substance
do you know
that doesn’t mix
with water?
Regents Biology
® FATS ¬
® LIPIDS ¬
Remember:
oil & water
don’t mix!!
4. Lipids of cell membrane
Membrane is made of special kind of lipid
phospholipids
“split personality”
Membrane is a double layer
phospholipid bilayer
Regents Biology
inside cell
outside cell
phosphate
lipid
“attracted to water”
“repelled by water”
5. Semi-permeable membrane
Cell membrane controls what gets in or out
Need to allow some materials — but not all
— to pass through the membrane
semi-permeable
only some material can get in or out
So what needs to get across the membrane?
sugar lipids aa H2O salt waste
Regents Biology
O2
6. Crossing the cell membrane
What molecules can get through the cell
membrane directly?
fats and oils can pass directly through
inside cell
outside cell
Regents Biology
lipid
salt
sugar aa H2O
waste
but…
what about
other stuff?
7. Cell membrane channels
Need to make “doors” through membrane
protein channels allow substances in & out
specific channels allow specific material in & out
H2O channel, salt channel, sugar channel, etc.
inside cell
Regents Biology

outside cell
waste salt
8. How do you build a semi-permeable
cell membrane?

Cells may need molecules to move

20. Osmosis
Water is very important, so we talk about
water separately

21. Keeping water balance
Cell survival depends on balancing
water uptake & water loss
freshwater balanced saltwater
Regents Biology
22. Keeping right amount of water in cell
Freshwater
KABOOM!
a cell in fresh water
high concentration of water
around cell
cell gains water
example: Paramecium
problem: cells gain water,
swell & can burst
Regents Biology
water continually enters
Paramecium cell
solution: contractile vacuole
pumps water out of cell
freshwater
No problem,
here

23. Cell in a hypotonic solution
HYPOTONIC SOLUTION
A solution having a lower concentration
of solute
More water outside the cell than inside
the cell
Regents Biology
25. Keeping right amount of water in cell
Saltwater
I’m shrinking,
I’m shrinking!
a cell in salt water
low concentration of water
around cell
cell loses water
example: shellfish
problem: cell loses water
in plants: plasmolysis
in animals: shrinking cell
solution: take up water
Regents Biology
saltwater
I will
survive!

26. Cell in a hypertonic solution
HYPERTONIC SOLUTION
A solution having a higher
concentration of solute than the cell,
which causes the cell to shrink or
shrivel because water leaves the cell by
osmosis
Regents Biology
27. Keeping right amount of water in cell
Balanced conditions
That’s
better!
no difference in
concentration of water
between cell & environment
cell in equilibrium
example: blood
problem: none
Regents Biology
water flows across
membrane equally,
in both directions
volume of cell doesn’t
change
balanced
I could
be better…

28. Cell in isotonic solution
ISOTONIC SOLUTION
Solution with the same concentration of
water and solutes as inside the cell,
resulting in the cell retaining its normal
shape because there is no movement of
water.
Regents Biology
Donuts!
Each transport protein is specific as to the substances that it will translocate (move).
For example, the glucose transport protein in the liver will carry glucose from the blood to the cytoplasm, but not fructose, its structural isomer.
Some transport proteins have a hydrophilic channel that certain molecules or ions can use as a tunnel through the membrane -- simply provide corridors allowing a specific molecule or ion to cross the membrane.
These channel proteins allow fast transport.
For example, water channel proteins, aquaprorins, facilitate massive amounts of diffusion.
Movement from high concentration of that substance to low concentration of that substance.
Plants have nitrate & phosphate pumps in their roots.
Why?
Nitrate for amino acids
Phosphate for DNA & membranes
Not coincidentally these are the main constituents of fertilizer.
