Document Summary

Pm detects type of molecule exiting out of cell using diff receptors. Highly selective traffic regulator b/w interior and environment. Key to drug delivery, immune activation, gene therapy, wound healing. Cell must balance input/output of energy & waste. Diffusion results in movement of substances down their concentration. Dissolved molecules/ ions have thermal energy constant motion. Diffusion: kinetic energy required for sub to spread high low concentrations. Cg- region of high low concentration. Temp & size of molecule affects diffusion rates. Passive transport: net movement across pm due to diffusion. Responsible for much of traffic across membrane into & out cell. Small molecules & hydrophobic molecules can diffuse directly across. Mem repels ions + polar organic molecules occurs through protein channels. Dynamic equilibrium: sub moves across mem in both directions but, total concentration on both sides does not change no net movement. Reached after sub allowed to diffuse for enough time.
