Active Transport (Pg 59)
­
this is the process of moving substances against a concentration gradient (this requires energy)
­
it is necessary because sometimes a cell needs a high concentration of materials for growth or must remove all toxins completely
­
passive transport cannot do this
NOTE: Most cells use 40% of their energy on active transport (Kidney cells use 90%)

Passive vs Active Transport
Similarities
Differences
­particles enter and exit
the cell
­ active moves against
concentration gradient
passive with it
­proteins in membrane
act as doorways
­active requires energy
passive does not

Types of Active Transport: Bulk Material Transport
(1) Exocytosis
­
a vesicle containing material from inside the cell moves to the cell membrane
­
it joins with the cell membrane and releases its contents into the extracellular fluid
­
this material may be waste or manufactured material
(Ex. pancreatic cells release digestive enzymes such as hormones which help in the digestive process)
­
exocytosis is the opposite of endocytosis

2. Endocytosis
­ the cell membrane folds inward trapping and enclosing small amounts of matter from the cellular fluid
­ it creates a vesicle which surrounds the material breaks off and carries it to the internal organelles of the cell
­
there are three types of endocytosis

(a)
Phagocytosis (Cellular Eating)
­
the engulfing of extracellular fluid containing debris from bacteria and other particles
­
the vesicles formed then move into the cell and fuse with lysosomes where the material being transported are broken down
­
this is common among white blood cells such as macrophages which are a part of the immune system
­
amoeba use this method to get food

(b) Pinocytosis (Cellular Drinking)
­
takes in fluid from the surrounding extracellular fluid
­
this fluid contains particles which the cell can use in its functions
­
similar to phagocytosis in how it functions
­
for example the cells lining a blood capillary will take fluid from the blood, move it across the cytoplasm and then release it into the extracellular fluid surrounding the cells outside the capillary
­
these cells can then take in particles from the fluid

(c)
Receptor­Assisted Endocytosis
­
involves the intake of special molecules such as cholesterol that can only enter a cell by attaching to special proteins in the cell membrane
­
these proteins act as receptors
­
these receptors have a unique shape that will only fit the shape of a specific molecule
