CELL MEMBRANE AND
CELL TRANSPORT NOTES
CA Standard
Cell Biology
1. a. Students know cells are enclosed
within semipermeable membranes that
regulate their interaction with their
surroundings.
What is the cell membrane?
The cell membrane regulates what enters
and leaves the cell and also provides
protection and support.
The structure of the cell membrane
 The cell membrane
consists of a lipid bilayer
(lipid = fat; bi=2) plus
proteins that straddle the
bilayer. Attached to the
proteins are
carbohydrates.
 Many of these proteins are
channels and pumps that
allow substances through
or not!
Draw the cell membrane, color and
label it. (p.182)
Cell Membrane
You should be able to answer these
questions:

3.
4.
5.
Describe the structure of the cell membrane.
How do molecules get into and out of the cell?
What is selective permeability?
What is diffusion and how does it work?
What is facilitated diffusion and how does it
work?
6. What is active transport and how does it work?
7. What is osmosis and how does it work?
8. What is the function of transport proteins?
Transport through the Cell
Membrane
Cell membranes are selectively
permeable (semipermeable).
Permeable- ability to pass through a
membrane
Impermeable- can’t pass through
Selectively Permeable (semipermeable)some things can pass through and some
can’t

WATER,
CO2, O2
Solution- a liquid with one or more
substances dissolved in it
Solvent- the liquid that the solute is
dissolved in
Solute- the substance dissolved in a
solution
Concentration- how strong it is  the
solute/volume (percentage)
Think of living cells like little bags of
solutions surrounded by a
semipermeable membrane!
For the cell to survive, the
concentration of solutes must stay
within a safe range to maintain
homeostasis.
Concentration Gradient- when
there is a difference in
concentrations
High concentration: more particles
Low concentration: fewer particles
In diffusion, particles move from high to
low concentration to reach an equal
concentration (equilibrium) on each side.
Facilitated Diffusion
Transport protein used: carrier protein or
channel protein
Movement WITH the concentration
gradient (high to low)
No additional cell energy required
PASSIVE
Example: Glucose molecules

Other Types of Active Transport
Endocytosis – the process of taking
material into the cell by folding in pockets of
the cell membrane into pouches called
vesicles
Phagocytosis – endocytosis involving large solid
particles
Pinocytosis – endocytosis involving liquid
Exocytosis – the process of removing
material out of the cell where vesicles merge
with the cell membrane to release contents
Endocytosis and Exocytosis
Osmosis- the diffusion of water
No transport protein
used
With the
concentration
gradient (high to low)
No additional cell
energy required
Passive
Concentration Strength
Isotonic – the solution and the cell have the
same concentration strength
Hypotonic – the solution has a lower
concentration than the cell
Hypertonic – the solution has a higher
concentration strength than the cell
Osmotic Pressure
Osmotic Pressure is the pressure that
water exerts on the hypertonic side of a
selectively permeable membrane.
It can be problematic for living cells
because they can burst from over-inflation
with water or shrivel up from loss of water.

Plants and Osmosis
Applications of Osmosis
Water overdose/intoxication
Penicillin kills bacteria
High concentration of fertilizer kills plants
Water enters the roots of plants
Why drinking salt water can kill you
Why putting salt on a slug or snail kills it
How dialysis machines work
The preservation of foods in salt brines (olives,
fish vegetables)  kills bacteria
Desalination works by reverse osmosis
Refresh wilted salad greens by putting in water
