PPT-17.7 Cell Membranes Substances are transported across a cell membrane by either diffusion,

Learning Goal Describe the composition and function of the lipid bilayer in cell membranes Cell Membranes Cell membranes are semipermeable so that nutrients can enter the cell and waste products can leave. Diffusion. : The passive movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration until equilibrium is reached. (Molecules still move after equilibrium is reached) .

P. assive requires no energy and moves down a concentration gradient from high to low concentration. Roles of Biological Membranes. The Lipid Bilayer and the Fluid Mosaic Model. Transport and Transfer Across Cell Membranes. Specialized contacts (junctions) between cells. What are the major roles of biological membranes?. The cell membrane’s purpose is to control what goes in and what goes out of a cell. The cell membrane also provides protection and support. The Lipid . Bilayer. The cell membrane is made up primarily of two sheets of lipids called the . 2. Introduction to Membranes. Low pressure membranes. Ultrafiltration. Microfiltration. High pressure membranes.

Membranes. cover the surface of every cell and also surround most organelles within cells. They have a number of functions, such as:. keeping all cellular components inside the cell. Our goals.
