MOVEMENT ACROSS A MEMBRANE
DIFFUSION

Movement of a substance from an area of HIGH concentration to an area of LOW concentration
FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE RATE OF DIFFUSION
1. Surface Area of Cell Membrane
the larger the area, the greater the exchange
2. Concentration Difference
the greater the difference, the more rapid the rate of diffusion
3. Diffusion Distance
the smaller the distance the substance has the travel, the greater the rate of diffusion
Note: Molecules of gas (O2, CO2) must be dissolved in a liquid before it may diffuse across in the body
OSMOSIS

Movement of WATER from an area of HIGH concentration to an area of LOW concentration

THE GENETIC MATERIAL IN THE NUCLEUS
Figure 1 – This figure shows
the different levels of genetic
information in the nucleus
 All of the traits of an organism and information for the body to function and grow properly are found as
“genes,” which are parts of the chromosomes in the nucleus
 Every cell contains chromosomes
 Each chromosome is a long piece of coiled DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and proteins
 The number of chromosomes in each cell differs between organisms
 The typical human cell has 46 chromosomes – two pairs of 23 chromosomes
 Chromosomes are only visible when the cell is dividing
 When the cell is not dividing, the DNA and proteins that
make up the chromosomes are spread throughout the
cell as chromatin (like long, thin threads).
Figure 2 – This figure shows a
cell during Interphase. The
DNA is in the chromatin state
 When the cell is ready to divide, the chromatin coils and condenses into visible, short, thick
chromosomes
 Each chromosome consists of two identical sister chromatids.

a cell during Prophase. The
DNA appears as short,
thickened chromosomes
