Cellular Processes

Page 2: Cellular Processes. Homeostasis The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium. –Maintain – “keep” –Internal – “inside” –Equilibrium – “stable

Homeostasis

• The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium.– Maintain – “keep”– Internal – “inside”– Equilibrium – “stable or balanced”

Page 3: Cellular Processes. Homeostasis The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium. –Maintain – “keep” –Internal – “inside” –Equilibrium – “stable

Why is maintaining homeostasis in our body important?

Why is it important for cells to maintain homeostasis?

Cell Membrane

• The “gateway” of the cell.• It regulates what goes in and what comes

out.• Thus is important in understanding how a

cell regulates homeostasis.

A Closer Look at the Cell Membrane

Phosphate head

Fatty Tails

2 layers

Page 6: Cellular Processes. Homeostasis The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium. –Maintain – “keep” –Internal – “inside” –Equilibrium – “stable

Phospholipid Bilayer

Why is the cell membrane also

called the phospholipid

bilayer?

Page 7: Cellular Processes. Homeostasis The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium. –Maintain – “keep” –Internal – “inside” –Equilibrium – “stable

How does the Phospholipid bilayer help maintain homeostasis?

• The membrane is selectively permeable.– “selects some substances to cross but not

others”

NO ENTRYENTER

How “things” get selected to come into and out of the cell…

DIFFUSION

OSMOSIS

ACTIVE TRANSPORT

Page 9: Cellular Processes. Homeostasis The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium. –Maintain – “keep” –Internal – “inside” –Equilibrium – “stable

DIFFUSION

• Movement of particles from an area of greater concentration to an area of lower concentration.

• Cell does not use energy to do this.• Diffusion stops when the two areas are equal.

(homeostasis)• FACILITATED Diffusion

– diffusion of large molecules through protein channels

Page 10: Cellular Processes. Homeostasis The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium. –Maintain – “keep” –Internal – “inside” –Equilibrium – “stable

OSMOSIS

• Diffusion of water• 3 types of solutions drive the force of

osmosis– Hypertonic solution (higher concentration of

solute that water)– Hypotonic solution ( lower concentration of

solute than water)– Isotonic solution (solute has same

concentration as water)

Osmosis

• 3 types of solutions drive the force of osmosis

Page 12: Cellular Processes. Homeostasis The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium. –Maintain – “keep” –Internal – “inside” –Equilibrium – “stable

Active Transport

• The movement of molecules against the concentration gradient. – Therefore it requires energy.– Energy is in the cell is called ATP

ATPRequiresEnergy

Page 13: Cellular Processes. Homeostasis The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium. –Maintain – “keep” –Internal – “inside” –Equilibrium – “stable

Types of Active Transport

• Endosytosis – “into the cell”– Phagosytosis – “cell eating”

• EX) White blood cells eat invading bacterial cells

– Pinocytosis – “cell drinking”

Page 14: Cellular Processes. Homeostasis The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium. –Maintain – “keep” –Internal – “inside” –Equilibrium – “stable

And how do cells let it out…

“Exit the cell”

Page 15: Cellular Processes. Homeostasis The ability or tendency to maintain internal equilibrium. –Maintain – “keep” –Internal – “inside” –Equilibrium – “stable

Latin Roots• Phago – to eat• Pino – to drink• Exo – exit• Endo – enter• Iso – same/equal• Hyper – high• Hypo – low• Cyto – cell• Bi – two• Homeo - same
