Cell Structure and

Function
At the end of this module, you are expected
to:
1. Differentiate passive from active transport;
2. Compare mitosis and meiosis as part of cell
division; and
3. Explain the production of Adenosine
triphosphate during Cell Respiration and
Photosynthesis.
Golgi bodies
packages store
and secretes
energy.
Cytoplasm
Jelly like substance
where organelles
are embedded
Ribosomes
Protein factory
of the cell
Lysosomes
break down and
digest unneeded
materials in the cell
Nucleus
Control center of
the cell
Mitochondria
Produces ATP, or
energy for the
cell
Cell membrane
Controls what
goes in and out
of the cell.
What do your parents or
grandparents suggest to do
when a foot bearing tree is
very sour?
What do you thing will
happen to plants if you
pour too much salt
water to it?
Maintaining a constant cell environment

HOMOESTASIS
- balance or keeping it
just right
Cell membrane
• Selectively permeable
• Some substance pass through easily
through the cell membrane
Lipids
Water
Glucose
Amino acid
Carbon dioxide
Oxygen
Cell Transport
• Movement of
materials across the
cell membrane

Passive transport
Active Transport
Passive transport
• Substancesmove cross the
plasma membrane without any
input of energy from the cell.
• Substancesmove from an area
where they have a higher
concentration to an area where
they have a lower
concentration.
Passive transport
•Diffusion
•Facilitated diffusion
•Osmosis
Passive transport
•Diffusion
•Facilitated diffusion
•Osmosis
Diffusion
• Movement of substance
across the membrane in
a concentration gradient
• High
concentration to
lower concentration
Facilitated Diffusion
• thetransport of
substances across a
biological membrane
from an area of higher
concentration to an area
of lower concentration
with the help of a
transport molecule.
Osmosis
• diffusionof solvent molecules
through a selectively-
permeable membrane from a
region of highwater potential
to a region of low water
potential, in the direction that
tends to equalize the solute
concentrations on the two
sides.
Activity 2 Passive transport
Materials
• 2 eggs
• Vinegar
• salt
• water
• Beaker
• Food coloring
Active transport
• is
applied when the
concentration of
materials inside the
cell is high, and the
cell needs to push
materials in to areas of
high concentration of
the materials.
