Agenda: Finish Notes Q & A worksheet Posters!

Bellwork Wednesday 11/9*tutorial today for missing work & test makeup

1. What is a phospholipid?2. How do cell membranes form on their own

Agenda:

1. Finish Notes

2. Q & A worksheet

3. Posters!

• Forms a barrier around all cells

• Are made mostly from fats– They don’t dissolve in water– Are special fats called Phospholipids

Cell Membrane

- Phospholipids in the cell membrane Form a Lipid Bilayer

- 2 layers back-to-back

• Lipid Bilayer is flexible (or fluid)

• Cholesterol embedded in membrane– Cholesterol adjusts fluidity– More cholesterol makes membrane stiffer– Less cholesterol makes membrane more liquidy

• Transport Proteins– Are like a pore or channel in membrane– Move nutrients in or waste out

Transport Protein

– 100’s of different kinds• Each nutrient needs it’s own• Shape of each Transport Protein fits its nutrient

More Transport Proteins

• Fluid Mosaic Model– fluid

• lipid bilayer is flexible

– Mosaic • Many Transport Proteins embedded in membrane• Looks like a mosaic, sorta

• Selective Permeability– Some molecules can pass through

• Like nutrients with Transport Proteins

– Some molecules can’t pass through• Like many toxins that don’t have Transport Proteins

Cell Membrane Poster20 points, work in pairs

Include and LABEL:– Phospholipid

• Polar Head• Non-polar Tail

– Lipid Bilayer– Transport Proteins– Cholesterol

Explain IYOW: (use the question in your answer)

1. Why polar heads face out2. Why nonpolar tails are inside3. What transport proteins do4. What cholesterol does
