Movement Through the Membrane Mr. Luis A. Velázquez Biology Cell Membrane • The cell membrane is also known as: –Phospholipids bi-layer –Plasma membrane –Fluid mosaic membrane Diffusion Diffusion Motion of particle for high concentration To low concentration. This causes many substances to move across a cell membrane and not require ATP energy. What is Osmosis? Osmosis is a type of diffusion. The movement of water across a semi permeable membrane. Passive Transport • When material move from areas of high concentration to low concentration they don’t requires energy. – Examples • Diffusion • Facilitate Diffusion • Osmosis Particles Carrier Protein Water Active Transport • When material move from areas of low concentration to high concentration they requires energy. – Examples • Endocytosis • Exocytosis Endocytosis Exocytosis Types of Endocytosis • Phagocytosis • Pinocytosis Phagocytosis Pinocytosis What can diffuse through? • Small & nonpolar molecules can diffuse through the cell membrane •CO2 •O2 Plasma Membrane • Hydrophobic- Nonpolar Lipids • Hydrophilic - Polar Phosphate Water is what type of molecule? Polar or nonpolar? Interactive Review online http://www.northland.cc.mn.us/biology/BIOLOGY1111/animations/passive1.swf
