Cell
Transport
Mechanism
Cell Membrane
A barrier around of a
cell,controls enters and
exits the cell
Phospholipid Bilayer
Means two layers of Lipids
Head(Polar)
Polar molecules have
unequal sharing of electrons
among atoms
Tail(Non-Polar)
Non-polar molecules have
equal sharing of electrons
among atoms
3 TYPES OF CELL
TRANSPORT
PASSIVE TRANSPORT
ACTIVE TRANSPORT
BULK TRANSPORT
Passive Transport
A cell doesn't use energy
(Moves with the flow)
Molecules moves from high
concentration to low concentration
DIFFUSION
THERE ARE 2 TYPES
OF DIFFUSION
FACILITATED
SIMPLE DIFFUSION
DIFFUSION
DIFFUSION
OSMOSIS
•Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively
permeable membrane like the cell membrane
Water diffuses across a membrane from an area of high
concentration to an area of low concentration.
DIFFUSION
OSMOSIS
DIFFUSION
DIFFUSION /SIMPLE
DIFFUSION
the process by which molecules, atoms, or
ions diffuse through a semipermeable
membrane down their concentration
gradient without the assistance of
transporter proteins.
FACILITATED DIFFUSION
FACILITATED
DIFFUSION
a type of diffusion in which the molecules
move from the region of higher
concentration to the region of lower
concentration assisted by a carrier.
FACILITATED DIFFUSION
Proteins in the cell membrane form
channels for large molecules to pass
through
Proteins that form channels (pores) are
called protein channels
FACILITATED DIFFUSION
Hypertonic Solutions: contain a high
concentration of solute relative to another
solution (e.g. the cell's cytoplasm). When a
cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, the
water diffuses out of the cell, causing the
cell to shrivel.
FACILITATED DIFFUSION
Hypotonic Solutions: contain a low
concentration of solute relative to another
solution (e.g. the cell's cytoplasm). When a
cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the
water diffuses into the cell, causing the cell
to swell and possibly explode.
FACILITATED DIFFUSION
Active Transport
is an energy-driven process where
membrane proteins transport
molecules across cells
Happens when cell use
ATP(Adenosine
Triphosphate) to move
substance across the
membrane
ANALOGY
BULK TRANSPORT
When some substance that
cannot get through the
plasma membrane an any
other way are transported
with the help of (ATP) into or
out of the cell
BULK TRANSPORT
Types of Endocytosis
BULK TRANSPORT
ENDOCYTOSIS Bringing of substances into the
cell(Vesicle)
(IN/ENTER)
PHAGOCYTOSIS The cells take particular matter(cell
eating)
PINOCYTOSIS The cells takes only the fluid (cell
drinking)
BULK TRANSPORT
RECEPTOR- a form of endocytosis in which receptor
MEDIATED proteins on the cell surface are used to
ENDOCYTOSIS capture a specific target molecule
BULK TRANSPORT
EXOCYTOSIS
(OUT/EXIT)
Is the reverse direction of endocytosis
The material is discharge from the cell
It is also use in plant to export cell wall
materials
