What cells have a cell membrane…• ALL cells have a cell membrane!– Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic

Cell Membrane’s Job…• Forms a boundary between a cell and the
outside environment• Controls the passage of materials into and out
of a cell

What is the cell membrane made of?
• A double layer of phospholipids–Hydrophilic Heads-”water loving”-are
exposed to water inside and outside the cell–Hydrophobic Tails-”water fearing”-
cannot be exposed to water

The cell membrane also has…
• Molecules embedded within the phospholipid layers– Cholesterol molecules-provide strength for
membrane– Proteins-help materials cross the membrane– Carbohydrates-attach to membrane proteins and
serve as identification tags

Fluid Mosaic Model
• Describes the arrangement of the molecules that make up the cell membrane
• Cell membrane is flexible, not rigid.• The phospholipids in each layer can move
from side to side and slide past each other.

Property of the Cell Membrane
• Selective Permeability (semipermeable)–Cell membrane allows some, but not
all, materials to cross into or out of the cell.–Enables cell to maintain homeostasis

Concentration-number of particles present in a solution
Which side, outside or inside, has the highest/lowest concentration?
![Page 12: Cell Membrane](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568160dc550346895dd00d20/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How do molecules move across the cell membrane?
• Several different ways molecules will move.– Some ways require the cell to use energy and
some do not.• How a molecule moves across the membrane
depends on:– Size – Polarity– Concentration inside the cell vs. outside the cell

Examples of materials moving across the cell membrane…
• Small nonpolar molecules move easily across the membrane
• Small polar molecules are transported via proteins
• Large molecules are moved in vesicles
