DIFFUSION, OSMOSIS AND
CELLULAR TRANSPORT
• Explain what you see in the following
pictures:
Directional Movement of Water
Across Membranes
• Osmosis
– Diffusion of water due to a water concentration
gradient between two regions that are separated
by a selectively permeable membrane
• Osmotic movement
– Dependent on concentration of solutes in the
water
– Side with more solutes has a lower concentration
of water
Osmosis
NET WATER MOVEMENT
Effect of solute concentration on water movement
Effects of Tonicity
• The solute concentrations of
two fluids
– Hypotonic: fewer solutes
• Water diffuses in
• Cell swells
– Hypertonic: more solutes
• Water diffuses out
• Cell shrinks
– Isotonic
• No net change

membrane permeable to

In compartment 2
Fig. 5.15, p. 89
when salt water
is added to plant
cells, water
moves
out of the cell due
to the increase of
solutes outside of
the cell
(hypertonic)

Effects of Fluid Pressure
• Volume of fluid exerts hydrostatic pressure
– Force against a wall or membrane

bilayer
Cytoplasm
(a) Simple diffusion
directly through the
phospholipid bilayer
(b) Carrier-mediated facilitated
diffusion via protein carrier
specific for one chemical; binding
of substrate causes shape change
in transport protein
(c) Channel-mediated
facilitated diffusion
through a channel
protein; mostly ions
selected on basis of
size and charge
(d) Osmosis, diffusion
through a specific
channel protein
(aquaporin) or
through the lipid
bilayer

Active Transport
• ATP required
• Movement is
against the
concentration
gradient
– Sodium-potassium
pump
– Calcium pump
Exocytosis and Endocytosis
• Exocytosis
– Vesicle moves to cell
surface and fuses
with plasma
membrane
• Endocytosis
– Substances move in
when plasma
membrane balloons

DIFFUSION ACROSS
LIPID BILAYERS
lipid-soluble
substances as
well as water
diffuse across
PASSIVE
TRANSPORT
Water-soluble substances, and water,
diffuse through interior of transport
proteins. No energy boost required.
Also called facilitated diffusion
ACTIVE
TRANSPORT
Specific solutes are
pumped through interior
of transport proteins.
Requires energy boost
Fig. 5.9a, p. 85
Passive Membrane Transport:
Diffusion
• Simple diffusion – nonpolar and lipidsoluble substances
– Diffuse directly through the lipid bilayer
– Diffuse through channel proteins
Passive Membrane Transport:
Diffusion
• Facilitated diffusion
– Transport of glucose, amino acids, and ions
– Transported substances bind carrier proteins
or pass through protein channels
Carrier Proteins
• Are integral transmembrane proteins
• Show specificity for certain polar molecules
including sugars and amino acids
Passive Transport
• Solute transport
through transport
protein
• Movement
– From higher to lower
concentration
• No ATP required

Membrane Potential
• Voltage across a membrane
• Resting membrane potential – the point
where K+ potential is balanced by the
membrane potential
– Ranges from –20 to –200 mV
– Results from Na+ and K+ concentration
gradients across the membrane
– Differential permeability of the plasma
membrane to Na+ and K+
• Steady state – potential maintained by
active transport of ions
