Plasma Membrane:
The Fluid Mosaic Model
Plasma Membrane:
The Fluid Mosaic Model
• Fluid because
–the phospholipid and protein
molecules are able to move
around. Not stuck in one place.
• Mosaic because
– the membrane contains a variety
of proteins embedded with the
phospholipids.
How do particles move in and
out of the cell?
Permeability of a membrane
• Permeable: anything can pass
through
• Semi-permeable: some things
can pass through
• Impermeable: nothing can
pass through
• The plasma membrane is
described as semi-permeable
because some substances can
move through it:
–Small and
–Non-polar
Passive Transport
energy is
• No additional _______________
required because every particle
has its own energy
• This energy produces
random movement in
________________
particles. (a.k.a Brownian
motion)
Diffusion
• Diffusion is the movement of
high
substances from a ________
concentration to a low
concentration.
• Diffusion is caused by
Brownian Motion

_________ of
area
something in a given ______.
Examples of diffusion at work
• Why does food smell fragrant when
cooked?
• Have you ever stood next to someone
wearing strong perfume?
How does it work?

Osmosis in Action
• What happens when you sprinkle
salt on a slug?
• If you are stranded at sea and run
out of water, should you drink sea
water?
** Water moves from a hypo to a
hypertonic environment.
True or False
1. In diffusion, particles move from
an area of high to low
concentration.
2. Diffusion does not require any
additional energy to occur.
3. Small, charged or polar particles
can move through the cell
membrane by simple diffusion.
What if a cell needs large or
charged/ polar molecules.
Can they move across the
membrane?
Yes!
Selectively Permeable Membrane
• The cell membrane “picks” what
molecules can enter and exit the
cell because proteins in the
membrane allow specific
macromolecules or ions in or
out of the cell.
Facilitated diffusion
• Proteins help particles move
across the membrane
• Transport proteins span the
phospholipid bilayer, but allow
only ___________specific
molecules
through.
>> Selectivity
Types of transport proteins
Ion __________
channels are non–polar on the
• ____
outside and polar on the inside. They
provide a pore for ions and polar
particles to move through.
Carrier_______________
Proteins
• _________
bind to
specific particles, carry them
through the membrane, and release
them on the other side.

Remember!
• In diffusion-particles (solutes)
move from an area of HIGH
concentration to LOW In osmosiswater moves from a HYPOTONIC
environment to a HYPERTONIC
environment
• Diffusion requires NO energy input
•

Simple vs. Facilitated
• In simple diffusion, particles move
between phospholipid molecules of
the membrane.
• In facilitated diffusion, particles
move through transport proteins in
the membrane.
• Both do NOT use energy. Particles
must move down the concentration
gradient.
But what if you needed
to move particles
against their
concentration
gradient?
Active Transport
• Transport proteins use
________to
energy move particles against
their concentration gradient,
from a low concentration to a
high concentration.
Sodium-Potassium Pump:
• Carrier- protein that pumps 3
sodium ions (Na+)________
outside
the cell, while pumping 2
potassium ions (K+)________.
inside
http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__how_the_sodium_potassium_pump_works.html
http://www.brookscole.com/chemistry_d/templates/student_resources/shared_resources/animations/ion_pump/ionpump.html
1. 3 Na+ ions from inside the cell bind
to the pump protein. Energy from
ATP is added to the protein.
2. The Na+ ions are moved to the
outside of the cell.
3. The 3 Na+ ions are released and 2 K+
ions bind to the protein.
4. The protein changes back and
releases the 2 K+ ions into the cell.

can “pinch” off forming vesicles

•

Pinocytosis
• “cell drinking”
• Cell engulfs small droplets of
surrounding fluid.
Exocytosis
