Composition of the Cell Membrane & Functions

The cell membrane is also called the ______membrane and is made of a phospholipid ______. The phospholipids have a hydrophilic (water attracting) ______and two hydrophobic (water repelling) ______. The head of a phospholipid is made of an alcohol and ______group, while the tails are chains of ______. Phospholipids can move ______and allow water and other ______molecules to pass through into or out of the cell. This is known as simple ______because it does not require ______and the water or molecules are moving ______the concentration gradient. Sketch and label a phospholipid coloring the heads red and the tails blue.

PHOSPHOLIPID

Another type of lipid in the cell membrane is ______that makes the membrane more fluid. Embedded in the phospholipid bilayer are ______that also aid in diffusion and in cell recognition. Proteins called ______proteins go all the way through the bilayer, while ______proteins are only on one side. Integral proteins are also called ______proteins. Large molecules like carbohydrates or ______molecules use proteins to help move across cell membranes. Some of the membrane proteins called ______have carbohydrate ______attached to help cells in recognize each other and certain molecules. So, small, ______molecules pass easily through cell membrane, while larger, ______molecules must go through transport proteins.

List 4 functions of the cell or plasma membrane:

a. / ______
b. / ______
c. / ______
d. / ______

Correctly color code and identify the name for each part of the cell membrane.

Letter / Name/Color / Letter / Name/Color
_____ / Phospholipid bilayer (no color) / _____ / Peripheral protein (red)
_____ / Integral protein (pink) / _____ / Cholesterol (blue)
_____ / Fatty acid tails (orange) / _____ / Glycoprotein (green)
(w/carbohydrate)
_____ / Phosphate heads (yellow) / _____ / Glycolipids (purple)
(w/carbohydrate)

Match the cell membrane structure or its function with the correct letter from the cell membrane diagram.

Letter / Structure/Function / Letter / Structure/Function
_____ / Attracts water / _____ / Repels water
_____ / Helps maintain flexibility of membrane / _____ / Make up the bilayer
_____ / Involved in cell-to-cell recognition / _____ / Help transport certain materials across the cell membrane

Cellular Transport Goal: to maintain ______in the cell

  1. Passive Transport:

Three types: ______, ______, ______

a. Diffusion: Requires ___ energy; molecules move from ______concentration to ___ concentration; goes ______the concentration gradient

List two examples of diffusion:

b. Facilitated Diffusion: Does ____ require energy; Uses ______proteins to move substances from _____ concentration to ____ concentration

List both types of proteins and describe each:

List two examples of facilitated diffusion:

c. Osmosis: Movement of ______through a ______from a _____ concentration of water to a ____ concentration of water. Uses ____ energy.

Osmosis and Tonicity

Define osmosis. ______

In which direction does water move across membranes, up or down the concentration gradient? ______

Define these 3 terms:

a. isotonic- / ______
b. hypertonic / ______
c. hypotonic / ______

Use arrows to show the direction of water movement into or out of each cell. Color and label the cell in an isotonic environment light blue, the hypotonic environment yellow, and the hypertonic environment light green.

Match the description or picture with the osmotic condition:

A. Isotonic / _____ solution with a lower solute concentration
_____ solution in which the solute concentration is the same
B. Hypertonic / _____ condition plant cells require
_____ condition that animal cells require
C. Hypotonic / _____ red blood cell bursts (cytolysis)
_____ plant cell loses turgor pressure (Plasmolysis)
_____ solution with a higher solute concentration
_____ plant cell with good turgor pressure
_____ solution with a high water concentration

Label the tonicity for each solution (isotonic, hypotonic, or hypertonic):

______

______

  1. Active Transport:

What type of transport is represented by the following picture? ______

What energy is being used? ______

In which direction (concentration gradient), is the movement occurring? ______

Color the internal environment of the cell yellow. Color and Label the transport proteins red and the substance being moved blue.

One type of active transport is called the ______pump which helps muscle cells contract. This pump uses ______to move ions ______the concentration gradient. The protein that is used to pump the ions through is called a ______protein and it changes its ______to move the ions across the cell membrane. Label and color the carrier proteins red and the ions green.

Another type of active transport involves moving substances out of the cell. It is called ______. Molecules are moved out by ______which fuse with the ______.

List two examples of exocytosis:

Substances can also be transported into the cell by active transport through a process called ______. The most common form of endocytosis called ______involves taking in ______substances using a ______. This can be translated as “cell - ______”

______endocytosis involves ______with ______on their surfaces which recognize and take in hormones, cholesterol, etc. This process also forms ______like pinocytosis.

Also known as “cell – eating”, ______engulfs large particles like food and bacteria into ______

List an example of this process:

Is the diagram below exocytosis or endocytosis? Explain.
