Cellular Physiology: Membrane Transport
▪ Membrane Transport – movement of
substance into and out of the cell
▪ Transport is by two basic methods
▪ Passive transport
▪ No energy is required
▪ Active transport
▪ The cell must provide metabolic energy

Solutions and Transport
▪ Solution – homogeneous mixture of two or
more components
▪ Solvent – dissolving medium
▪ Solutes – components in smaller quantities
within a solution
▪ Intracellular fluid – nucleoplasm and cytosol
▪ Interstitial fluid – fluid on the exterior of the
cell

Cummings
Selective Permeability
▪ The plasma membrane allows some materials
to pass while excluding others
▪ This permeability includes movement into
and out of the cell

Cummings
Passive Transport Processes
▪ Diffusion
▪ Particles tend to distribute themselves evenly
within a solution
▪ Movement is
from high
concentration
to low
concentration,
or down a
concentration
gradient

Passive Transport Processes
▪ Types of diffusion
▪ Simple diffusion
▪ Unassisted process
▪ Solutes are lipid-soluble materials or small
enough to pass through membrane pores

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin


Cummings
Passive Transport Processes
▪ Types of diffusion
▪ Osmosis – simple diffusion of water
▪ Highly polar water easily crosses the plasma
membrane
▪ Facilitated diffusion
▪ Substances require a protein carrier for
passive transport

Diffusion through the Plasma Membrane

Cummings
Passive Transport Processes
▪ Filtration
▪ Water and solutes are forced through a
membrane by fluid, or hydrostatic pressure
▪ A pressure gradient must exist
▪ Solute-containing fluid is pushed from a high
pressure area to a lower pressure area

Cummings
Active Transport Processes
▪ Transport substances that are unable to pass by
diffusion
▪ They may be too large
▪ They may not be able to dissolve in the fat core
of the membrane
▪ They may have to move against a concentration
gradient
▪ Two common forms of active transport
▪ Solute pumping
▪ Bulk transport

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin


Cummings
Active Transport Processes
▪ Solute pumping
▪ Amino acids, some sugars and ions are
transported by solute pumps
▪ ATP energizes protein carriers, and in most
cases, moves substances against
concentration gradients

Active Transport Processes
▪ Bulk transport
▪ Exocytosis
▪ Moves materials out of the cell
▪ Material is carried in a membranous vesicle
▪ Vesicle migrates to plasma membrane
▪ Vesicle combines with plasma membrane
▪ Material is emptied to the outside

Exocytosis

Cummings
Active Transport Processes
▪ Bulk transport
▪ Endocytosis
▪ Extracellular substances are engulfed by
being enclosed in a membranous vescicle
▪ Types of endocytosis
▪ Phagocytosis – cell eating
▪ Pinocytosis – cell drinking

Cell Life Cycle
▪ Cells have two major periods
▪ Interphase
▪ Cell grows
▪ Cell carries on metabolic processes
▪ Cell division
▪ Cell replicates itself
▪ Function is to produce more cells for growth
and repair processes

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin


Cummings
DNA Replication
▪ Genetic material
duplicated and readies
a cell for division into
two cells
▪ Occurs toward the
end of interphase
▪ DNA uncoils and
each side serves
as a template

Events of Cell Division
▪ Mitosis
▪ Division of the nucleus
▪ Results in the formation of two daughter nuclei
▪ Cytokinesis
▪ Division of the cytoplasm
▪ Begins when mitosis is near completion
▪ Results in the formation of two daughter cells

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin


Cummings
Stages of Mitosis
▪ Interphase
▪ No cell division occurs
▪ The cell carries out normal metabolic
activity and growth
▪ Prophase
▪ First part of cell division
▪ Centromeres migrate to the poles

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin


Cummings
Stages of Mitosis
▪ Metaphase
▪ Spindle from centromeres are attached to
chromosomes that are aligned in the center
of the cell

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin


Cummings
Stages of Mitosis
▪ Anaphase
▪ Daughter chromosomes are pulled toward
the poles
▪ The cell begins to elongate
▪ Telophase
▪ Daughter nuclei begin forming
▪ A cleavage furrow (for cell division)
begins to form

Protein Synthesis
▪ Gene – DNA segment that carries a blueprint
for building one protein
▪ Proteins have many functions
▪ Building materials for cells
▪ Act as enzymes (biological catalysts)
▪ RNA is essential for protein synthesis
