In A Solution

Molecules Are Moving ConstantlyMolecules Are Moving Constantly They Collide and Bounce off each otherThey Collide and Bounce off each other

DIFFUSION

• Molecules move awayMolecules move awayfrom an area of Higher Concentrationfrom an area of Higher Concentrationto area’s of Lower Concentrationto area’s of Lower Concentration

• EquilibriumEquilibrium– Concentration of a solute is the same Concentration of a solute is the same

throughout the solutionthroughout the solution• The concentration is the same EVERYWHEREThe concentration is the same EVERYWHERE

• Overhead – Sugar & WaterOverhead – Sugar & Water• Membrane Impermeable To SugarMembrane Impermeable To Sugar• WaterWater moves moves fromfrom

a higher concentration of a higher concentration of WATERWATERto ato a

lower concentration of lower concentration of WATERWATER((NOTNOT Sugar) Sugar)

Facilitated Diffusion

• Molecules that can easily diffuse across the cell membrane:–Alcohol–Water–Small Lipids

Page 29: Cell  Structure & Function

Facilitated Diffusion

• Other molecules can not pass through the cell membrane but still get into the cell.

HOW?

Facilitated Diffusion

• Thru Protein Channels in the Cell Membrane that allow a substance to cross.–Allows Diffusion In Both DirectionsAllows Diffusion In Both Directions–Each Channel Substance SpecificEach Channel Substance Specific–DOES NOTNOT REQUIRE ENERGY

Protein Channel Is Substrate Specific

Substrate Can Move Either Direction Depending On Concentration. Substrate Can Move Either Direction Depending On Concentration. Always from area of Higher Concentration to area of Lower Always from area of Higher Concentration to area of Lower
