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?
Passive Transport
energy
• No additional _______________
is required because every
particle has its own energy
• This energy produces
random
________________
movement in
particles. (a.k.a Brownian
motion)
Diffusion

area
of something in a given ______.
How does it work?

Examples of diffusion at work
• Why does food smell fragrant
when cooked?
• Have you ever stood next to
someone wearing strong
perfume?
Permeability of a membrane
• Permeable: anything can pass
through
• Semi-permeable: some things
can pass through
• Impermeable: nothing can
pass through

environment, there are
less
__________
solutes
outside than inside and
water moves into the
cell.
The Cell’s Environment:
Hypertonic

environment there are
more solutes outside
_________
than inside and water
moves out of the cell.

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
• 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
specific
allow only ___________
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 osmosis- water 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.
What if you needed to
move particles
against their
concentration
gradient?
Active Transport
• Transport proteins use
energy to move particles
against their concentration
gradient (low high).
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 bind to the pump
protein inside. ATP adds energy to
the pump.
2. The pump moves the Na+ ions
outside of the cell.
3. 3 Na+ ions are released and 2 K+
ions bind to the pump.
4. The pump moves the 2 K+ ions
inside the cell.
Vesicle Mediated Transport
• The fluid plasma membrane
can “pinch” off forming
vesicles that can move very
large particles or lots of
small particles.
• This process needs energy.
Endocytosis
• Outside materials are
brought inside the cell.
1) Food
particle
2) Pouch forming
around food
3) Vesicle
with food
Endocytosis
Phagocytosis
• “Cell eating”
• Cell engulfs large food particles
and the vesicle is a food vacuole.
•
http://www.stolaf.edu/people/giannini/flashanimat/cellstructures/phagocitosis.swf
Pinocytosis
• “cell drinking”
• Cell engulfs small droplets of
surrounding fluid.
Exocytosis
• Material from inside the cell is
released outside by vesicles.
1) Vesicle
fuses with
membrane
2) Pouch
opens
3) Particle
released
