● Phospholipids spontaneously assemble in aqueous environments.
EXAMPLE: ● Spontaneous assembly occurs despite entropy.
EXAMPLE:

● Proteins are integrated into the membrane via van der Waals forces.
□ Transmembrane proteins span the membrane.
EXAMPLE:

CONCEPT: OSMOSIS AND DIFFUSION Simple diffusion is the movement of a substance down its concentration gradient. EXAMPLE: ● Diffusion is driven by entropy EXAMPLE: ● Small and nonpolar substances can readily diffuse through the membrane.
□ Large, ionic, charged, and polar* substances cannot cross the membrane unassisted. EXAMPLE:

CONCEPT: OSMOSIS AND DIFFUSION Selective permeability is largely accomplished via channel proteins and carrier proteins. ● Channel proteins form a pore that specific solutes may pass through EXAMPLE: ● Carrier proteins bind specific substances, and undergo a shape change to transport them through the membrane. EXAMPLE:
CHANNEL PROTEINS CARRIER PROTEINS

CONCEPT: OSMOSIS AND DIFFUSION The cell membrane acts as a selectively permeable barrier separating the cytosol from the extracellular environment. EXAMPLE: ● Concentrations of ions and charged substances create electrical gradients. EXAMPLE: ● Electrical gradients and chemical concentration gradients coexist as electrochemical gradients.

CONCEPT: OSMOSIS AND DIFFUSION Osmosis is the movement of water across a membrane from an environment of lower solute concentration to a higher one.
□ Aquaporins are channel proteins that facilitate the movement of water across the membrane EXAMPLE: ● Osmosis is NOT a type of diffusion EXAMPLE:

CONCEPT: OSMOSIS AND DIFFUSION Osmotic pressure drives the movement of water. ● Isotonic – concentration is the same on both sides of the membrane EXAMPLE: ● Hypertonic – concentration is greater on one side relative to the other ● Hypotonic – concentration is lower on one side relative to the other EXAMPLE: ● Osmoregulation is an organism’s regulation of its water content. Failure to do so may result in lysis.
□ Plant cells maintain turgor pressure to give their cells rigidity. EXAMPLE:

CONCEPT: FACILITATED DIFFUSION
● Passive transport is the diffusion of substances via an electrochemical gradient.
□ Electrochemical gradients have an electrical and chemical concentration gradient.
EXAMPLE:
● Facilitated diffusion is the passive transport of substances that do not readily cross the membrane.
EXAMPLE:
● Carrier proteins bind a substance and change shape to carry it through the membrane.
□ The glucose transporter in red blood cells “tricks” the chemical concentration gradient.
EXAMPLE:

CONCEPT: FACILITATED DIFFUSION
Channel proteins have a hydrophilic pore that allows the passage of specific molecules and ions.
● Ion channels are protein channels that allow the passage of ions
□ Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that can be caused due to the deletion of a single amino acid in a Cl- channel.
EXAMPLE:
● Gated channels only open when they receive a certain stimulus
□ Ligand-gated channel – opens in response to chemical stimulus
□ Voltage-gated channel – opens in response to electrical stimulus
EXAMPLE:

CONCEPT: ACTIVE TRANSPORT
Active transport uses energy to move molecules or ions across the membrane
● Primary active transport uses energy directly, usually by hydrolyzing ATP to power proteins.
□ Uniporters move one substance in one direction
□ Symporters move two substances in the same direction
□ Antiporters move two substances in opposite directions
EXAMPLE:
● The Na+/K+ pump is an antiporter that uses ATP to move ions across the membrane
EXAMPLE:
● Pumps play a huge role in maintaining electrochemical gradients across the membrane
□ Proton pumps play a crucial role in the mitochondria

CONCEPT: ACTIVE TRANSPORT
● Secondary active transport uses the potential energy of one substance’s concentration gradient to transport another
substance against its concentration gradient.
● Cotransport moves the two substances in the same direction
□ The glucose/Na+ transporter takes advantage of the Na+ concentration gradient to transport glucose into the cell.
EXAMPLE:
● Countertransport moves the substances in opposite directions
□ Na+/H+ transporter takes advantage of the Na+ concentration gradient to transport H+ out of the cell.

CONCEPT: BULK TRANSPORT
Exocytosis is the secretion of molecules via vesicle fusion with the membrane.
Endocytosis is the process by which a cell takes in material by forming a vesicle from the membrane.
EXAMPLE: ● Phagocytosis is a form of endocytosis in which the cell reaches out pseudopodia to engulf solid material.
EXAMPLE:

CONCEPT: BULK TRANSPORT
● Pinocytosis is a form of endocytosis in which the cells engulfs a small droplet of solutes
□ Phagocytosis and pinocytosis are similar, but differ based on the materials being transported
EXAMPLE:
● Receptor-mediated endocytosis is a type of pinocytosis that can obtain solutes low in concentration.
□ Cholesterol is obtained by this process
