Example text

All of these mechanisms play a role in ensuring that biochemical homeostasis in body fluids is maintained. 2 and are explained further in the next section. HOMEOSTATIC MECHANISMS BY WHICH SUBSTANCES ARE TRANSPORTED ACROSS THE CELL MEMBRANE In considering the diffusion of chemicals across a membrane, the process can be subdivided into that of simple diffusion and that of facilitated diffusion because of the restricted nature of the membrane for some substances. Simple diffusion Small, uncharged, lipid-soluble substances pass readily across the cell membrane.

5 Model of facilitated diffusion. g. glucose) is transported across the cell membrane by a carrier protein. Stage 1: carrier chemical binds with the solute, which then changes its shape (stage 2), so that a channel is opened and the solute can pass into the cell’s cytoplasm. The process does not use metabolic energy; solute chemicals pass down a concentration gradient ume of the solution on one side of the membrane counterbalances the movement. The osmotic pressure of a solution therefore is the force required to stop the net flow of water across a selectively permeable membrane when the membrane separates solutions of different concentrations.
