Phospholipids and Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic partsVII. Diffusion and concentration gradientVIII. AquaporinsIX. Active and Passive TransportX. EndocytosisCurrent Lecture- Plasma membrane is a thin, fluid membrane that manages to be very flexible and yet is stable enough to stay together despite being continually remade due to constant movement- Phospholipids make up cell membraneo Composed of fatty acid chainso Has glycocalyx on cell surfaceo Hydrophobic molecules pass freely through membraneo Hydrophilic molecules do not- Diffusion is movement of molecules or ions from highest region of concentration to region of lower concentration- Concentration gradient is difference between highest and lowest concentration of solutewithin given medium- Aquaporins selectively conduct water molecules in and out of cell while preventing passage of ions and other solutes- Simple diffusion is type of passive transport where molecules move down their concentration gradient through phospholipid bilayer- Facilitated diffusion is also passive transport; passage is aided by concentration gradient and transport protein- Active transport is where molecules move through transport protein but expend energy - Endocytosis is taking things into cells; there are two methods of endocytosisThese notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.o Phagocytosiso
