00:03 All right, y'all, let's go and get started. Um For those

00:06 you who registered uh after the first , uh this is kind of the

00:10 information you guys um you missed out a lot of fun on Tuesday.

00:16 know, you know how long that incident lasted. It was including me

00:21 back down was about six minutes, less, maybe about five minutes,

00:26 is crazy because it felt like 30 to me anyway. So uh uh

00:32 far as orientation is concerned, uh a link directly on the front page

00:36 Black or not Black, excuse me campus, you can click that.

00:38 take you to all our recorded You can go and watch that for

00:41 orientation. I edited out the bad um today. If you saw it

00:47 then. Yeah. Um There's an uh assessment that you should do that

00:53 be done uh by Friday uh September by midnight. It's really quick.

00:58 just basically summarize everything we discussed uh Tuesday. Uh We have reading assignments

01:04 day. What do you guys think the first one? Was it hell

01:06 was it. Ok. It was right there. Like I said,

01:11 gonna be like, one or two are really, really dense. They're

01:13 be coming up here real soon. we get past that, the stuff

01:16 gets pretty interesting. But like I , also, this is like,

01:21 to the gym for the very first . It's like, you've never worked

01:24 like this and so it's gonna be little painful to start off. Every

01:28 is like, this sucks. You about midway through. It's like,

01:30 , no, there's no big So, um anyway, so there

01:34 reading assignments. So we call this two. So lecture three is on

01:39 . So make sure you start doing . I call them quizzes here from

01:43 old slide, but they're just Did you read this stuff? They're

01:46 straightforward. What do you think was assessment hard at all? Yeah.

01:51 . And in the grand scheme of , uh, if something is

01:54 like if you know, if if you miss a question, it

01:58 isn't gonna cause you a lot of . It's if you miss many,

02:02 quizzes where it actually starts affecting your . So if you have questions,

02:06 can email me. Um I've discovered if you try to email me through

02:11 , it, it gets, I the email but I can't email you

02:14 for some strange reason. I I get, it gets bounced

02:18 So just to give you a heads . So email me directly is probably

02:21 easiest way to do so c way U dot edu. All right.

02:26 we're actually doing today, we're finally start talking some physiology. Why you're

02:31 here? All right. So I to kind of distinguish something here up

02:35 the front end, what physiology is what it is not. So,

02:39 by definition is the scientific study of functioning, living things. It's how

02:46 things work, the systems and the in the bodies, which is structure

02:51 really anatomy. But the physiology is do these things actually work to make

02:57 organism or the organ or the tissue the things that it does. All

03:02 . It's a sub discipline of meaning it covers many, many different

03:07 and we're and not often at this , but you'll see that we're gonna

03:11 drawing on other disciplines very often. right. Um And so don't be

03:17 when there's stuff like, wait a , I've seen this stuff before in

03:19 class because everything is kind of integrated you're dealing with this subject matter.

03:25 central theme of physiology and what we're talk about first is this question of

03:31 , what is homeostasis? You've learned simple definition in biology, one,

03:35 you remember this homeostasis is simply maintaining consistent internal environment despite the fact that

03:42 change, constantly going on and So when we're looking at these

03:47 we're kind of asking the question how does it do this? How

03:51 the heart maintain a heartbeat? How the lung determine how much air goes

03:55 and out? What is the proper balance of all these different things?

04:00 talk about things that sometimes we find uninteresting like osmosis. You guys remember

04:09 , right? In fact, we're be talking a lot about that today

04:12 over the next couple of days, ? So homeostasis is kind of uh

04:17 grounding point of where we kind of that leap off from physiology or for

04:23 . Now, who can tell me pathology is just blurt out an

04:30 study of disease. So many of are taking this class because that's what

04:36 interests you is why do these bad happen, right? And very often

04:41 go into a textbook, you especially those that are geared towards undergrads

04:44 they know what will make them Are these case studies? Right?

04:49 , we're gonna learn about diabetes. gonna learn about cancer, right?

04:55 it's like, uh well, you what cancer doesn't mean anything if you

04:59 know how the body actually works. so what we do here in this

05:03 is we don't do the case studies I apologize for that partially because I've

05:08 to do like case studies where I'm to explain something and they're like,

05:11 , I don't understand how this is going on. So we have to

05:14 kind of ground ourselves first in that before we can make that leap into

05:19 pathology, which I know is more . I mean, it's what got

05:22 excited about the field in the first too. Right. So you'll notice

05:27 I kind of steer away from that . Secondly, I'm not a

05:31 And so when, when we start out into the case study stuff,

05:35 actually wading out deep into areas I'm comfortable in, right where you start

05:40 questions because many of you are doing or have spent time in the hospital

05:43 doing stuff like that. And you're , oh, oh, I've seen

05:46 . Can you tell me how this ? And I'm like, no,

05:49 don't even know what those initials So, you know, it's a

05:54 of me not being introduced to the . Now, we can usually kind

05:57 critically think our way through some of stuff, but I can't tell you

06:00 any sort of certainty how certain disease actually work because I've never looked at

06:06 , right? So that's why I of avoid them. But our

06:10 like I said is gonna be Now, most of you already know

06:15 physiology, most of you know, lot of physiology, just not the

06:19 details, details that we're gonna be into. And I want to kind

06:22 prove that to you. So I this slide, I've been doing this

06:25 a little while. So these are different systems that we're gonna be

06:29 Um It's not actually shown up which is good. So the immune

06:33 is one that we don't cover in class because it's so grossly complex and

06:37 uh time consuming that most texts just we're not even gonna bother. We're

06:41 gonna leave that for a completely different and if it interests you, I

06:45 encourage an immunology course for you. But it is dense. So here

06:51 go. These are the uh different . I wanna just again blurt out

06:55 the integument that your skin. What you think it does protects your

07:00 That is a good answer. That the textbook answer. But it also

07:03 highly, highly metabolic. It plays major role in immune defense. It

07:08 all sorts of little tiny things that don't really consider. But protection is

07:12 you do, right. I'm gonna another one out here. Uh

07:15 What does that do? Breathing? . Yeah. Good. So then

07:19 first thing we have to do well, what is breathing? So

07:21 moving air in and out, What is air? Is it

07:30 Right? It's a, it's a of gasses is what we're looking

07:34 right? And that's, that's, right. Your nitrogen is oxygen is

07:37 dioxide. Those are the three big . And carbon dioxide of that group

07:40 like 0.2%. It is next to . In fact, if you look

07:45 most uh air things, it's like , oxygen, other stuff,

07:50 But respiration is the process of getting near ourselves, right? So that

07:57 can draw the oxygen to our ignoring all the other stuff and then

08:03 us to exhale and remove the carbon from our body. So it plays

08:07 major role in the process of providing nutrients or the fuel for our bodies

08:13 well as getting rid of the waste our bodies. But that's not all

08:17 . As an example, it has highly or an incredible metabolic role,

08:22 ? Plays a role, immune It's on the surface. So every

08:26 you breathe in and all those horrible that enter in your body with every

08:31 , guys don't think about this too . Do you? There's all sorts

08:34 horrible things out in the air plays role, immune defense. So

08:42 there's the big picture and then there's stuff as well. All right.

08:45 renal system, kidneys. What does do? Gets rid of waste?

08:51 that what she said? I couldn't . Yeah. Yeah. Ok.

08:54 system. Yeah. It purifies the . Right? Great. Well,

08:58 the key thing. It purifies blood just get rid of waste. It

09:02 the blood. It serves as a to take the blood and whatever is

09:05 in it and then it parses through in some really cool ways to we're

09:10 get to explore. And it says are the things the body wants,

09:13 are the things the body doesn't gets rid of the things that the

09:15 doesn't want. But it also is for your blood pressure. Well,

09:21 , that's one of its major right? Making sure that your

09:24 So balances are correct also that a endocrine organ plays a role in regulating

09:30 whole bunch of different things, including many red blood cells you produce,

09:35 ? So there are things that you know. And so we're gonna look

09:40 all the things you know, and those function, but we're also gonna

09:44 deeper into the things that you don't , which is kind of cool.

09:47 when you start looking at it as whole, it's like, oh,

09:50 share a whole lot of things in . And so one of the ways

09:54 you approach physiology is you need to of it, not in terms of

09:58 are the things I need to But what are the themes that I

10:01 seeing? What are the patterns that showing up over and over and over

10:06 . And that's kind of what this unit is about is like, we're

10:09 to demonstrate a couple of themes that guys should be aware of. So

10:14 when we jump from system to You're like, oh, ok.

10:17 saw this over here. I'm kind seeing the same thing over here.

10:20 just maybe a different molecule that's doing , but it's kind of doing it

10:24 the same sort of way. Which makes things easier to learn because

10:30 you're dealing with concepts, you just that mold and you just move it

10:34 where you need to be. But you spend all your time trying to

10:37 stuff, you end up with a vast uh amount of knowledge that may

10:41 not be usable ever again, So kind of watch for themes as

10:46 going along. And that's like I , first unit is gonna feel like

10:50 . It's like when are we gonna to the, the physiology? Trust

10:53 , we're gonna be running through some pretty quick. All right.

10:56 our starting point has to do with you guys learned in chemistry, always

11:02 the chemistry chemists, stick their fingers noses in everyone's business. All

11:08 you guys heard of that term law mass balance? All right. Maybe

11:12 . Maybe you've heard of the law Mass action. No, you

11:18 you just forgot it because it was . All right. And basically what

11:22 says is that if you have a , whatever goes in what is,

11:25 equal, whatever you put into the has to be the same as what

11:29 out or vice versa. Whatever ever out has to be equivalent to what

11:32 put into a system, given a or given an open system. All

11:36 . And so, for example, say you are, have a plate

11:40 front of you and it always has have four cookies on it. Let's

11:42 them what? Oreos? Oreo sound today. OK. Double stuff or

11:49 weird generation. All right. So got regular Oreos, you got a

11:53 of four. You can eat as Oreos as you want. All

11:56 But there always has to be four on the plate. Now, you

11:59 an infinite pantry over here. So can go and say, I'm gonna

12:02 three Oreos if I eat three what do I have to do?

12:06 to the pantry, put three Oreos on the plate. All right.

12:09 is equilibrium. That is what the balance says, right? I eat

12:13 Oreos. I gotta go grab four Oreos. I eat two more

12:16 I have to put two more Oreos the plate. If I throw up

12:18 the Oreos, I just ate, gotta take Oreos and I gotta put

12:21 back in the pantry. I know was gross, but it goes both

12:25 , right? You remember that in basic thermodynamics, right? You

12:29 the chemical reactions, both go going ways and that's true in these systems

12:33 well. You've got to consider both . All right. But generally

12:37 what you put in has to be to what comes out. Now,

12:41 thing is, is we don't really understand what the things coming in and

12:47 out are. So this process of this equilibrium, that's part of the

12:53 . But we have to consider that intake isn't just the food and it's

12:58 just the drink, right? The is not just the waste,

13:02 The stuff that I pee the stuff I sweat, the stuff that I

13:05 . Yeah. You said poop in , right? It's not just those

13:10 every time I put something into my that includes the molecules that I

13:15 right? So when I'm doing something anabolic in nature, right? I'm

13:20 something new. I'm adding something to system. Every time I break something

13:25 that's cata bolic, I'm destroying But I'm also in that metabolism,

13:30 creating something new, right? So I just think of this, if

13:33 have, oh I don't know, a sucrose molecule. What are the

13:36 sugars that make up sucrose? You remember? Glucose and the galactose?

13:42 . Let see. Notice it was question. It wasn't a, I'm

13:45 you, right? So when I that one sucrose molecule and I break

13:49 , I've added a glucose and a . I've lost the sucrose. So

13:54 an additive effect here as well as subtract effect. And each of those

13:59 are things that we need to consider we're dealing with this homeostatic balance.

14:05 the law of mass action considers all this stuff. The law of mass

14:08 considers all of it all right. loss and gain have to be equal

14:16 order to maintain homeostasis, right? you can just think of a day

14:20 today, you just walked to camp walked over here. Was it hot

14:24 ? Right. Did your body Yeah, your body is now sitting

14:28 craving water, right? You're trying add water into the system,

14:33 You wanna bring yourself back up into homeostatic balance, right? Because you

14:38 it all out. That's the easy . But when you have chemical reactions

14:43 you're doing hydrolysis, right? You're removing water from the system. So

14:49 would be the example we're looking So here we're looking at a picture

14:53 you guys saw from the uh What we're trying to show you here

14:59 the different fluid compartments in the You guys all live in a space

15:04 has more than one room, Do you have a bedroom? Do

15:09 have a bathroom? One person out their head? The rest of you

15:14 toilets while your bed? No. . So there's a special place that

15:18 go and do your dirty business, ? There's a place where you lay

15:22 head to sleep. Is there a in the place where you live where

15:26 say for example, Oh, I know, eat your food or prepare

15:30 food. Right. Even in dorm you may have things set aside.

15:34 is the place where I study, is the place where I sleep.

15:37 know, this is the place where hang my clothes. Right. So

15:40 have specialized places. These compartments in space are defined by the walls that

15:48 created between them. Right now. loft, it's a little bit

15:51 but I'm just trying to think of an apartment or a home, something

15:55 those lines. All right, your is the same way. In order

16:00 it to specialize, it needs to specialized spaces for it to do

16:05 And these are these body compartments, ? So for example, a cell

16:10 and of itself is a specialized It is a wall, a plasma

16:14 that separates a compartment of fluid with chemicals away from the rest of the

16:20 in the body with all its And so in that cell, it

16:23 do unique things just like you can unique things in the bathroom that you

16:28 do in the bedroom. I guess could do them in the bedroom,

16:30 we don't want to do that, . We're trying to be honest

16:34 right. So we compartmentalize to create specialization and inside the cells, we

16:40 compartmentalization as well. And you've learned the parts of the cell,

16:44 You learn about your mitochondria and yours and your and all these other fun

16:49 , right? You remember all that stuff, right? Those are compartments

16:53 that you can create unique chemical reactions as well. So the space inside

16:59 cell is referred to as the intracellular . So uh or the fluid inside

17:04 cell is referred to as the intracellular . Everything outside of it is considered

17:07 fluid. They are unique and different one another. Even though they contain

17:12 of the same components. Now between in the in er sorry, in

17:19 extracellular fluid, we're gonna compartmentalize we have fluid that's directly next to

17:25 cells. And then we have fluid movement fluid that's transporting stuff around the

17:30 body. And so the extracellular fluid is is divided into these two separate

17:36 and they're separated by the capillary wall . Well, is there to

17:41 hey, um not only is this space where I'm moving stuff, but

17:45 also preventing certain materials from getting in around the cells that they're not necessary

17:52 be around the cells. I need over here because they serve a purpose

17:56 the movement of this fluid. So plasma and the uh interstitial fluid,

18:01 are these two compartments in the extracellular are unique from one another because the

18:06 , while they have all the same and they're interchangeable, the one thing

18:10 the plasma has that can't find its over to the interstitial fluid because of

18:13 presence of the capillary wall are the proteins. So, plasma and incisal

18:20 or if are unique because of those proteins and the plasma proteins not only

18:25 a function of the protein, but serve as a way to draw water

18:29 the plasma. Right. It's a to bring water back into the

18:38 All right. So we've got these portions that are extracellular, we have

18:42 portion that's intracellular. Now, one the things I want to clarify in

18:48 is this idea of homeostasis and right? Because you'll often hear as

18:53 . It's you're in equilibrium. Your is in equilibrium. You're not an

18:56 , you're in homeostatic balance. Equilibrium when the two sides of the equation

19:01 the same thing and there's no right? It's a chemical term equilibrium

19:06 different because if you look, I you to focus down here on the

19:10 figure. So the up the upper just basically shows you the three compartments

19:13 the one compartment we're not gonna ever about which is trans cellular. We're

19:19 gonna pretend it doesn't exist. All . Look down here in the

19:23 All right. What do you We got a couple of ions name

19:28 ion. Yeah, bicarbonate. Know one. Yeah, it's, it's

19:39 that you don't normally see, but one that you're gonna see all the

19:41 . So just know it. And here's one that we don't think about

19:45 large an anionic cellular proteins. All , this is really what this

19:50 All right. So they're large, anionic, if they're anionic, that

19:54 they're positive or negative, negative and going to be inside the cell.

19:59 that's the thing, right? So at our graph here, here's our

20:04 and you can see here that we plasma, we have the intracellular fluid

20:09 then we have the intracellular fluid that's stands inside cells if or is for

20:15 for plasma. And you can see that while generally speaking, if you

20:20 and you measure how much chlorine, much sodium, how much potassium you

20:25 in your body. There, you know, it's kind of a

20:30 no matter where you go. But you go inside the cells and if

20:34 go outside the cells, you're gonna there's a massive imbalance, a massive

20:39 and it's sustained. So you can here like it's sodium, it's really

20:44 outside of the cells, but inside cells, it's very low. Potassium

20:49 the opposite chlorine, very much like , right? Bicarbonate like sodium anionic

20:57 proteins. Well, that kind of sense, right? Anionic cellular

21:03 they're not the anionic everywhere, they're inside cells, they're like potassium

21:10 this disequilibrium, this imbalance is one the ways that our body is able

21:17 do all the unique things that it All right. So what we say

21:21 , is that inside the outside the , we have an osmotic equilibrium because

21:27 you count up the number of solutes caring what they are, you'll see

21:31 the inside of the cell and the of the cell are the same.

21:33 right, just making up a there's 100 solutes here and 100 solutes

21:37 . So there is no movement of , right? Because everything is in

21:44 balance, osmotic equilibrium. But it's disequilibrium. I got lots of sodium

21:50 the outside of the cell. Very sodium on the inside of the

21:52 So what does sodium want to It wants to go down its concentration

21:56 into the cell. Potassium lots on inside, very little on the

22:00 What does potassium want to do? wants to go out of the

22:03 So there is a desire a need meet that equilibrium. So there's a

22:10 disequilibrium. You'll also notice that these have charges. This is the part

22:16 I fell asleep when I was in seats, right? Oh my

22:19 We're gonna talk about ions. Oh . Yes. These charges matter.

22:24 right, because that means if we lots of positive ions on the outside

22:29 very few positive ions on the that's the same thing as having lots

22:32 negative ions, then those positive ions going to move in the direction where

22:37 fewer positive ions, right. So is what we would refer to as

22:41 electrical gradient as well. That's gonna ions in a direction to bring e

22:47 electrical equilibrium. All right. what we call that is we call

22:55 current. But if you were to the current of your body, it's

23:02 . It's, you're electrically neutral. do I know this? If I

23:06 you? Do I become electrocuted? . The only time I get shocked

23:10 if I get static electricity built up the surface of my body, so

23:13 I rub my feet a little bit come, I can get you.

23:17 right. But that's not me. the static electricity on the surface of

23:20 body. So we are electrically neutral, but we're an electrical

23:25 We are an osmotic balance but we chemically disbalance or dis equilibrated. All

23:33 . And it's our bodies that use create, they first create it and

23:37 they use it so that they can the unique stuff that they do.

23:41 right. So what we call this a dynamic state, a steady

23:45 What we're doing is we're using the mechanisms of the cells to

23:49 hey, if we didn't do sodium would come into balance and then

23:53 have equilibrium. But we don't want . We're going to use a pump

23:56 to pump sodium out of the So we build up a lot of

23:59 here and now we have a lot potential energy and I can use potential

24:03 for things. Can you use potential for things? Yeah. Right.

24:08 doing the same thing with the The only one that's not being pumped

24:12 doing anything is that anionic cellular proteins they're large and they're negatively charged and

24:17 stuck inside cells, they can't go . So they're just there and they

24:22 the inside of the cells, they them more negative. So they're actually

24:26 the attraction of those positive charges. right now to get things down those

24:35 , whether it be electrical or chemical collectively referred to as the electrochemical

24:41 All right, I'm gonna have to mechanisms to transport these molecules. And

24:44 reason for that is because of the that sits between the intracellular fluid,

24:51 extracellular fluid. And that's your plasma plasma membrane excite you guys. I

25:00 don't see, I see people give that look. Yeah, that's the

25:03 I had when I got invited to in a lab on the plasma

25:07 And I was like, thank But no, thanks. Yeah.

25:11 , honestly, I didn't get excited the plasma memory until about the fourth

25:14 I was teaching here and I started holy crap. This is the single

25:18 important structure in the body. I , I'm I'm not exaggerating here and

25:24 gonna start seeing this as we go , right? And I understand if

25:28 not excited because I wouldn't be All right. But the point here

25:34 that we need something to allow those , those ions to move between those

25:41 points because the plasma membrane sits in and serves as a barrier to these

25:48 that want to reach equilibrium. And it's a barrier and we have this

25:54 , we have potential energy all over place that we can then take advantage

25:57 . So to exploit that potential I need to have those, those

26:02 . So what is a plasma It's the cell membrane, it's a

26:05 limb and not to be confused with cell wall of a of a plant

26:09 . All right, it is responsible physically isolating the internal space of the

26:14 from the external environment. That's the thing, right? It plays a

26:19 role in regulating the exchange of materials the intracellular fluid and the extracellular

26:25 In other words, it's responsible for what goes back and forth across that

26:33 at your home. Do you have door? Yes. Does that keep

26:38 riff raff out? Small raccoons and ? No, your door doesn't.

26:45 you leave it open, raccoons are be coming. But if you close

26:49 door, raccoons can't come in, ? So it serves as a

26:58 Someone knocks at your door and let me in. You make a

27:01 , right? You can decide whether not to allow them in or out

27:06 the walls and the door stand in way between your internal safe space and

27:11 external unsafe space. As an how do I know whether or not

27:18 should let you in? Well, can communicate across the door,

27:23 And the same thing is happening with cells, those two compartments are

27:27 So they need to have a mechanism allow to know when to do what

27:31 , knock, knock ring the who's there? That's the same sort

27:35 thing that's going on in the So we can communicate across that plasma

27:40 . And finally, it serves as point to structural support. The cells

27:45 independent of each other. They're attached each other, they're attached to

27:49 There are anchors in place to make that the cells don't separate from each

27:54 . So you have a cytoskeleton that the shape of the cell, which

27:57 important. Your cells are shaped the they are shaped to do the jobs

28:01 they're supposed to do, which is supported by the cytoskeleton that's been put

28:05 place. Anyone here, a younger ever gotten an Indian burn? You're

28:12 there going, I don't know, see some people know they had mean

28:15 , older siblings, right? An burn is when someone comes along and

28:20 give me your arm, you grab arm and you twist right and notice

28:25 your cells come falling off your Does your skin come ripping off?

28:29 feels like it. But does The answer is no because all the

28:32 are attached to each other and they this network of attachments from cell to

28:36 to cell to, to uh it just not just the cells but

28:40 to the underlying connective tissue and it the forces that are being applied.

28:47 because the plasma membrane exists. Now I switch aside what a plasma memory

28:53 made up of. Do you guys fossil lipid? Yeah, that should

28:58 the answer. It's like that's the . I'm a biology student. It's

29:01 lipids, it's fossil lipids. Excellent. Yes. These are phospho

29:06 . It is the when you look this thing, you're like, how

29:08 this thing hold together? And these are all physical forces. You

29:13 wonder why you take chemistry when you wonder why you take physics in

29:16 It's because you're like, OK, are forces undergirding all these things that

29:22 this stuff to happen. All So this is just AAA cartoon mockup

29:26 the, of the lipid bilayer. can see it's a, it's a

29:29 . So there's lipids in there, ? They're not attached to each

29:33 they're not covalent linked. Literally, you see a picture of,

29:37 of the membrane, you will see these things are just kind of bobbing

29:40 and down like something on a waterbed right. If you're on the upper

29:45 , the outer facing layer, you're on the outer facing layer. If

29:47 in the lower inward facing layer, stuck on the inward facing layer.

29:51 rare exception when those two things will over. But if you are a

29:56 lipid, you have freedom to move and everywhere in there. Now,

30:02 not just fossil lipids, there's a of other things in there,

30:05 You're not just fat, you're also . All right. So you have

30:09 that are embedded and associated with the membrane and there's also carbohydrates associated with

30:14 plasma membrane as well. Now the , this is one of those things

30:20 like oh OK, the ratio of to lipids as you increase the number

30:25 proteins, that is one of the of an increase in metabolic activity in

30:29 cell. So the more proteins you , the more activity you have the

30:34 proteins you have on the surface of cell or in the plasm membrane,

30:37 less metabolic activity you have. Now are mostly and I'm now we're gonna

30:44 adding a little bit of education, ? These are mostly fossil lipids,

30:48 are other types of lipids in there well, which we're going to go

30:51 a little bit more depth here. , the proteins themselves, they can

30:55 embedded in the membrane. In other , they can pass all the way

30:59 the two bi layers, the two layers are creating an environment that is

31:07 I'm gonna say it this way, it's incorrect. It's basically uh uh

31:12 the presence of water. But it's the opposite water disallows uh fatty acid

31:18 . So that's why the fatty acid move inward. So they're basically being

31:22 from the water. Like a bunch bullies. Water is a bully.

31:26 right. But the proteins can insert and you can see on the in

31:31 you can have one that's sitting on end or they can be partially

31:34 there's different conditions for those proteins and they are associated with that membrane.

31:40 what I wanna do is I wanna focus in on these fos lipids.

31:45 , this is new to you. right. So this is the first

31:48 the phospho lipid. You've seen this before. You have the fatty acid

31:52 . You have the glycerol, you the uh the negatively charged phospho

31:55 You've heard that, right? That's familiar. Have you guys ever looked

31:59 the head in any sort of depth ? So there's your um R

32:06 right? That's the, that's the group. And so there's a lot

32:09 different types of phospho lipids, So you can see here we got

32:14 acid chains, they're excluded from So that's why they affiliate or associate

32:18 so that the heads or the tail poking towards each other. These are

32:22 charged. So, what they're doing they're attracted to the polar molecules of

32:26 . So they're like, oh, wanna hang out with water and the

32:28 are like, but I can't they don't like me and so they

32:30 down and that's, you get enough them and you're gonna get that fossil

32:33 bilayer, right? Do not memorize names of all these, please.

32:40 I wanna show you this because you're start seeing. Oh, wow.

32:45 think I've heard of some of this . All right. So these are

32:50 of four of the most common phospho . Uh You guys recognize serene.

32:56 sea? It's an amino acid, ? Notice it's attached to the

33:01 You guys heard of Cole? Thank . Thank you. You guys taking

33:10 , right? Where do you think Cole from acetyl Cole comes from?

33:14 gonna go ahead and sacrifice this thing gets exchanged back and forth. Um

33:19 not, I have no idea. never seen it. I'm not even

33:25 say it right now. It's it's not gonna roll off. Uh

33:29 . There we go. Ethanolamine. you. All right. Anyone seen

33:33 one? No. All right. put a little asterisk by that

33:42 Not to memorize. Just put Say he's gonna come back to that

33:47 . All right. Probably in two . All right. And you're gonna

33:51 like, oh, now I All right. No. So what

34:00 you notice about all of these Do they look different from one

34:04 What do they all have? They the polar head, they have the

34:10 fatty acid tails. They have a backbone. They look all alike and

34:14 how you've learned it your entire But you've never ever focused on those

34:18 . It's those heads that make them and those heads are used in chemical

34:23 . Right. That one of which we're gonna talk about. Hence

34:27 asterix. All right. So they're just as we would say, a

34:33 of fossil lipids in a uh they're there for a reason. They

34:39 functionality, but for the purposes of plasma membrane, they serve as our

34:46 . Second lipid, ever heard of one? Sfo lipid. What does

34:52 look like here? I'll go back slide. It looks like a fossil

35:08 . It's not a fossil lipid, it looks like one. All

35:12 what it is is a fatty acid . There's your fatty acid tail.

35:17 then up here, this is called fa F is a mean alcohol.

35:24 right. Now, ask me what mean? Alcohol is and that's about

35:27 far as you go. All I'm not a chemist, right?

35:31 the idea here is you can start here what does it have? It

35:34 a characteristic shape similar to a phosphor . So if it has a shape

35:39 a phospho lipid, how do you it behaves like a phospho lipid.

35:44 it looks like a duck and quacks a duck, it's probably a

35:47 All right. It's not a but it's a lot like a

35:50 It's like a goose. How's All right. Now, here it's

35:56 have the same thing. The difference , is while you can find them

35:59 the membrane and they kind of behave phosphor lipids, they tend to hang

36:02 with each other and they form what called these lipid rafts. Have you

36:06 heard of a lipid raft? They of sit up, they're a little

36:10 taller than the other phosphor lipids and kind of congregate with them and they

36:14 together and then you end up with big giant raft that's just kind of

36:17 along on the, the river or pool of fossil lipids. That's just

36:23 lipids. That's what they kind of . So we have two kind of

36:27 that look like phospho li what one and one look kind of looks like

36:30 and they kind of behave the same . And then we have the cool

36:34 , the one that I was told entire life were terrible for you.

36:37 do not eat them. Is this best lipid of all? Mm

36:46 All right. Cholesterol is an incredibly , valuable lipid. All right.

36:53 off, you can see the shape there. Why I think it's important

36:55 to give you a background. My is in reproductive physiology. All

37:00 When we get to reproduction, you'll me like a little school kid.

37:02 be up here all day long. kind of doing. Oh, let

37:05 tell you stuff that you should know not on the test. All

37:10 But one of the things I had uh work with and deal with our

37:14 , androgens primarily is what I worked , but also some of the

37:18 All right. Well, cholesterol is backbone. It's the, it's the

37:22 block to make all those steroids. so this structure is exciting to me

37:26 I've been working with it forever. it's exciting for you is because what

37:31 does to your cells, see when go and look at a lipid or

37:35 fossil lipid, those fatty acid these, they're showing you here are

37:39 , right? But if you have unsaturated fatty acid, what's gonna happen

37:42 those fatty acid chains aren't gonna be down like this, they're gonna kink

37:47 to the side. And if you a bunch of people with straight legs

37:50 next to each other, they get nice and close and they stiffen up

37:54 you make really, really dense right? You, you know,

37:58 fat, I, I have a of dense fat. All right.

38:02 then if you have a lot of , you can't get close together.

38:06 you end up with a lot of fat. And so you can imagine

38:09 plasma membrane that has too much looseness one that's a very, very leaky

38:15 membrane. And if you have plasma that have too many fat phosph lipids

38:19 are, are jammed together with saturated , then you have a dense plasma

38:24 , nothing can ever get through. so what these do is they sneak

38:29 between in those spaces. So wherever is a kink, they kind of

38:34 in there and they make something that's , more solid and where there's something

38:40 really, really dense, they get between, they break it up and

38:43 make it more liquidy. And what means is is that under temperature

38:50 the condition of the fats changes state is is able to maintain its state

38:56 a longer period of time or in over a longer range. Now,

39:00 put this in perspective here. Uh you take butter, what is

39:03 Is it a solid or a liquid ? So how do you turn it

39:07 a liquid? Heat it up? it in a grill, right?

39:10 just watch it melt down real quick you have something like um oh,

39:14 don't know, uh I don't vegetable oil, which is liquid or

39:20 . But if you put in the , it becomes a Yeah, if

39:23 buy country crock or any of those things in our margin. That's whipped

39:28 oil, kept cold in a solid . Leave it out on the counter

39:32 an hour and see what happens. just like now I got vegetable

39:37 All right. So they have a range in which they can become

39:40 or solid. Right. What cholesterol is it broadens that range? So

39:45 when it becomes hot, your cells melt and when it becomes cold,

39:51 cells don't become solid, you're able survive in a broader range of

39:57 kind of cool, which is why think cholesterol is cool. All

40:02 So it provides flexibility over a broader is what we're kind of getting at

40:06 . Now it is a fat so hides wherever the fats are. So

40:09 hangs out with the fatty acids. are different types of membrane proteins.

40:17 can be a little frustrating picture sometimes it's like, OK, I got

40:20 proteins. These are loosely associated to proteins which we'll define here in a

40:25 . So here you can see here a peripheral protein, peripheral protein down

40:29 in the blue. And it oh, or it could be attached

40:31 the polar heads and you see this here and say, wait, there's

40:33 polar head that's attached. No, this is a different type, this

40:36 lipid anchored. But you could have example, an uh a peripheral protein

40:42 of hanging out with the polar So like like attracted to the

40:47 attracted to the searing through the uh uh non covalent bonds. Um,

40:55 you might find between any two All right. So that would be

40:59 example of a peripheral protein. It's the periphery. All right. This

41:05 the first, I'm gonna say it . Well, at least in this

41:09 , um I will say it over over again, probably twice a

41:12 Maybe if you ever get lost or in biology, not just his class

41:18 biology in general. Just remember, are simple people. We're not

41:23 I make fun of chemists every single . Ok. Ok. We're not

41:27 . We name things for what they or for what they look like.

41:30 if you ever look at something you're , I have no idea what this

41:33 . Stop, take a step back see if you can break down the

41:37 , right. It will usually tell exactly in the name of what it

41:40 or what it does. And if doesn't, it's usually because you weren't

41:43 when they named it. So you know, something like an astrocyte

41:47 sense because it's like, oh, astro is a star. So an

41:53 is a star cell. So why you think they call it a star

41:57 because it was discovered in Houston? , no, it's because it looks

42:01 a star, right? You're right it looks like a star. That

42:05 sense. Right, you don't have like dive deep into kind of figure

42:08 some of these things. All But here's an example. Why is

42:12 called a peripheral protein because it's on periphery? Why is it an integral

42:17 because it is integrated? All don't. And I know these are

42:21 examples, but I just saw Don't let yourself become your own impediment

42:28 the learning process going. This has to be hard because it's supposed to

42:31 hard. Now, biology is not hard. None of this three comma

42:38 dash N, methyl dash dash, of that stuff. And yes,

42:42 know there's an actual pattern to the , but it's hard. And I

42:47 to make fun of chemists, integral , integral proteins are proteins that penetrate

42:53 the plasma membrane. You can see we're going all the way through,

42:56 over here we're not, those are integral because they are penetrating into the

42:59 lipid bilayer. All right, they're named based on the number of membrane

43:04 portions of their sequence that actually penetrate . So what we refer to as

43:09 transmembrane region. So this would have single uh transmembrane region. This one

43:14 three, this one has one. . But the idea is is there's

43:19 portion that goes in and through. so that region has the same features

43:24 that the, the, the fatty tail. So basically, it's non

43:29 And so it wants to hide in non polar environment. And that's what

43:33 holds it in place. Typically, proteins are free to move about unless

43:38 attached to something that doesn't let So they are free to roam.

43:44 just like the fossil lipids, they move wherever they go. There's no

43:47 linkages amongst the, the stuff that's that plasma membrane um on the outside

43:54 on the inside. So you can here and there that's an extracellular loop

43:58 would be an intracellular loop. This it to interact with other proteins.

44:02 so this is one of the mechanisms the cell uses to play uh to

44:06 messages and to send messages. In words, to have the external

44:10 tell the cell what to do internally vice versa. Right. So they

44:15 with other proteins through these uh excellent loops. I did mention you know

44:24 they can move freely, but if , they can also be attached to

44:28 cytoskeleton and when they are, that's they're not allowed to move, they're

44:31 as an anchor point. And that's also helps to uh create structure and

44:37 is through those cyto skeletal anchors, anchored proteins. You're gonna see a

44:42 link between the lipid. So here can see there is the tails,

44:46 the gl- glycerol, there's a phospho here, we can see a sugar

44:51 then another phospho region that's attaching the that the proteins attached to. All

44:57 . And so in this case, is what is a lipid anchored

45:00 what is usually called a GP um because it's, there's some sugar

45:04 usually involved here. All right. And so the idea here is I

45:11 able to attach myself and embed myself the membrane because of that attachment to

45:18 fossil lipid or the single lipid. right, those are the lipid anchored

45:23 . And again, the name should it away. So what I want

45:27 do is I want to kind of through a bunch of different classes really

45:30 . And you may see, I know, sometimes they may be named

45:33 here, but we're more interested in class. All right. And so

45:37 throw this one up first because one particular type of molecule right here,

45:43 , this picture is the single, common type of brain protein that you'll

45:48 in the body. All right, the seven transmembrane protein. Uh what

45:52 usually see is referred to as the protein coupled receptor, which we'll spend

45:56 lot of time talking about. You about 5000 different ones of these and

46:01 of them are in your nose. play the role in the sense of

46:04 , you know, but that's not only place you find them. All

46:07 . So here you can see in ligand binding receptor class. So this

46:12 a two dimensional look. This would like a three dimensional look. So

46:14 can see it's not just spread it's actually pretty compact. You have

46:18 region that's on the external side, for binding a signaling molecule. Um

46:23 it causes when anything binds here, going to cause a change in the

46:26 of the intral or the uh the uh binding site which is usually associated

46:33 some other molecule. The change in shape of the outside causes change on

46:36 shape of the inside which any time have a change in the shape of

46:40 molecule causes um a change in the . And so you can turn things

46:45 and turn things off this way. right. So for the most

46:50 the region that's outside is called the binding protein or the lion binding

46:55 Um a ligand if you've never heard term or maybe you heard it,

46:58 you didn't know what it means. just means the signal, something that

47:01 bound is the best way to think it. So the ligand binding region

47:06 the region that binds the thing that . They play a major role in

47:12 chemical messaging. They also play an role in vesicular transport, which we'll

47:16 with on another day adhesion molecules. is your molecular um velcro this is

47:26 cells hold each other together. And again, you can see we have

47:29 membrane sections. Here, you can outside the cell, there's usually a

47:33 extracellular matrix made up of a whole of unique and interesting proteins which we're

47:37 going to go into to. But here, you have something that's in

47:41 membrane and it's anchoring itself to this and it may have something intracellular that's

47:46 of the cytoskeleton that's holding it in . And so now you have basically

47:50 anchor point for the outside uh uh and the inside matrix. So that

47:56 is not going anywhere. And very this can be used as a way

48:01 two cells to talk to each So it's not just attaching cells together

48:07 the cell or maybe even to a to hold it in place, like

48:10 in the connective tissue. But it serves as a way for cell to

48:15 communication. Um Some of these might just like those GP is that I

48:21 you the lipid anchored proteins, what gonna spend most of our time today

48:26 gonna be on these transporters. And this is another very common type.

48:31 are two basic categories. We got and we have carriers. All

48:36 So what's a channel? It's basically door. All right. What's the

48:41 of a door, that door over ? What's at state closed? All

48:46 . If we go over there and it up and it's now open,

48:48 doors can be either in a closed or an open state, can we

48:52 that door open and keep it Yeah, when we do that,

48:55 call it a poor, right. typically speaking channels will have always have

49:01 sort of gate, right. So basically a door with disc gates.

49:07 if it's a channel, we will refer to it as a channel because

49:11 opening and closing. And if it a poor, that means basically the

49:16 the gate has been propped open and open. All right, we also

49:21 carriers and what they do. I should say what channels do.

49:24 allows for the materials, these very, very small particles, not

49:31 things, right? We're literally talking ions to be able to pass back

49:36 forth between the extracellular fluid and intracellular . So this is how these ions

49:41 able to move freely between those two . They can diffuse simply by moving

49:47 their concentration gradient or their electrical The carrier. On the other

49:53 all right. So the carrier is for binding two in a non covalent

50:00 , a substance and then surrounding it that it can be brought to the

50:04 side of a membrane. Now, channel is easy to envision because we

50:10 look at a door like that and . Yeah, I see that that

50:12 and closes. Carry is a little harder to envision. But you've all

50:17 to say a hotel that has the spinny door or maybe an airport

50:22 has the large spinny door. If haven't go to the Hilton school,

50:25 have a large spinny door. And you can, you envision that

50:29 walk up to the door and here has that big giant thing with the

50:34 partitions. And you're like, I've got to time myself and then

50:38 get in there and you get into little space and then you're just kind

50:41 like going around with it, you , like, OK, I'm gonna

50:43 around and it's like, OK, got to the other side. That's

50:46 a carrier works. You're never I mean, you're either on the

50:50 or the inside or you're in between two states, right? You're,

50:55 that point when you're in that spinny , I don't know what kind of

50:58 it's called. If you have a name for it, let me

51:01 Right. But there's a point where not exposed to either the inside or

51:05 outside, there is a middle state it's because you're being protected from that

51:12 environment or that non polar environment because molecule itself is basically opening in that

51:19 . Now, if a carrier or should say, if a,

51:22 if a carrier takes a molecule that's down its concentration and it's doing so

51:30 the use of energy. In other , not neither direct or indirect,

51:34 just something's moving down its concentration we just refer to the molecule as

51:39 as a carrier. But if I'm a molecule against its gradient,

51:47 So energy is being used either directly indirectly, we call this a

51:54 Does that make sense? So if have to use energy, I'm pumping

52:00 , right? If I want to water from down here to up

52:03 what do I have to do? have to use a pump,

52:05 And that's sort of the same It takes energy to move something against

52:09 natural inclination, things wanna move down concentration gradients. So in order to

52:14 it down its co uh against its gradient upward, I have to apply

52:20 either directly or indirectly. So that's a pump is needed. We're gonna

52:25 many examples of these by the end class other types of membrane proteins,

52:32 will see things that play a role intracellular signaling. So this is gonna

52:36 a G protein uh G protein coupled pathway we're gonna look at and you

52:40 see here we got proteins. Um is phospholipase C you hear that word

52:45 you're like ah big word fossil What do you think? It breaks

52:50 lipids? Right? Ace is an . The first part of the word

52:54 phospho lipid ace. So there you , phospholipase, it's ac. So

53:00 you have a molecule that it begin ac in it. Do you think

53:03 there's a molecule that's a phosph or A? You think there's a

53:09 yeah, if you have ac, probably have the A and the

53:12 all right. And that's gonna be , kind of going the other direction

53:15 well. Um, here we got K AC. All right.

53:20 these are all proteins that they're showing the little squiggly showing that they're involved

53:27 , or associated with that membrane. they're found on the intracellular side.

53:32 so what they're doing is they're taking external signal and they're turning it into

53:37 internal signal. So those do All right. Nothing's just limited to

53:43 outside. We got enzymes. And just showed you an enzyme, phosph

53:47 PC is an enzyme. It's breaking phospho lipid. Uh I remember how

53:51 said, put that asterisk up. right. Remember phospho phospho tino,

54:00 PP two phos nool, you break , you get PP two, that's

54:08 , nool di phosphate and you get other half which are the two fatty

54:14 , you break it. I'm If you break it, you get

54:16 three, it's a nool trios. dag, that's the two tails and

54:20 Glycerol, Diy Glycerol. So we a fatty acid stuck in the

54:26 We add an enzyme to it. cleave it. We get two parts

54:29 now we have a whole pathway that's activated. They're not just sitting in

54:34 membrane that's what I'm trying to get . So we got enzymes, they

54:38 do all sorts of fun stuff. then we mentioned also the cytoskeleton.

54:42 this is an example of that. , a whole bunch of proteins,

54:44 don't care about their names. But can see right here, there's acting

54:48 then there's other uh small uh uh uh proteins that are basically creating a

54:54 that's creating a structure that maintains the of the cell so that it can

54:58 its job. So we're organizing the membrane. In essence, I know

55:08 going hard and fast. I'm just to get through this stuff because it's

55:12 always particularly interesting. Are you like excited? I saw you not like

55:16 . It's not interesting at all. right. Are there questions so far

55:21 this? So basically, what we've so far is that there's a plasma

55:25 that separates an internal and external There's things that it's made up of

55:30 and me and membrane proteins. I spoke for an hour on that.

55:36 that crazy? I wait till I to reproduction. You'd be like,

55:40 you kidding me? I used to a reproduction class 27 lectures on

55:48 Can you imagine? I thought it just get in, get out and

55:51 done. That was a joke. right, I can wake you

55:58 All right. The last thing. we are made up of not only

56:03 , not only fat, but we have sugars that make up the uh

56:07 are found associated with the plated This is called collectively the glyco

56:13 All right, the glyco Cali refers the sugars that are attached to any

56:18 the proteins and sugars that are attached any of the phospho lipids. So

56:24 I attach a sugar to a phospho , I call it a glycolipid.

56:27 I attach sugar to a protein, call it a glycoprotein. And so

56:32 glycoprotein and the glyco lipids are collectively on each of the surface of the

56:38 . They're only found on the external and they create a unique um external

56:44 for each of the cells. Your is unique to you and to no

56:50 else, which is kind of If you are an identical twin,

56:56 do not share glycolic. It's how cell can identify one of the ways

57:01 cells can identify self cells. So of your cells are candy coated.

57:12 right. So it's a highly specific marker that the cell uses to identify

57:19 . And so you can see in little cartoon again, it's a bad

57:22 . So all the green stuff. are the unique glyco um lipids and

57:27 proteins that make up that glycolax. what I wanna do is I want

57:36 change and shift gears and I wanna to, how do I move

57:40 Because remember we created a wall. we wanted to talk about the wall

57:44 . So how do I move things either side of the wall? That's

57:48 of important, right? So the common form of movement of materials in

57:54 body is something called bulk flow. just want to get it out of

57:57 way because it's, it's kind of easy thing to do and we'll get

58:00 out the way and we're gonna come to it. We talk about the

58:02 system, the respiratory system, when breathe in, you breathe out.

58:06 are you breathing air? Right? it, what, what of air

58:12 your body want in oxygen? What it not want in carbon dioxide?

58:17 want to get rid of it. when I breathe in, I'm pulling

58:21 air which is nitrogen, about 80% , which is about 20% I said

58:28 and then carbon dioxide, which is 0.2%. And then all sorts of

58:32 things down the list that we can through the noble gasses and the dust

58:36 the smog and the pollution and the and the bacteria and everything else out

58:42 that can be floating around, including because we live in Houston and we

58:46 a human environment. All right. all that stuff is in air.

58:50 the only thing my lungs and my wants is oxygen. But when I

58:55 in, I bring it all in bulk flow. And when I push

58:59 that's bulk flow as well, when talk about the exchange of materials between

59:04 and the rest of the body, ? So if I'm taking oxygen to

59:07 cells, if I'm taking glucose to cells, or if I'm creating metabolic

59:11 and including carbon dioxide, I'm taking , things from the cells and I'm

59:15 them out into the blood. So from the blood going to the

59:18 things from the cells going out to blood with the interstitial fluid serving as

59:22 middle man. I'm going to move down pressure gradients. So not with

59:29 in and out. What I'm doing I'm changing the pressure of my thoracic

59:33 . And so pressure is the driving behind bulk flow. It does not

59:38 itself with what it's moving, it's creating pressure so that things move with

59:43 pressure gradient. Ok. So that's form of movement and we'll see it

59:51 at least twice once in the once in the respiratory system. All

59:57 , what we're concerned about is what's on at the level of the

60:02 See bulk flow doesn't occur across the because the membrane itself has a certain

60:07 of permeability to it. All when we say something is permeable,

60:11 we're saying is that it allows for passage of a specific material. All

60:16 , if we say a membrane is , we're saying it doesn't allow

60:21 And so when we talk about our per our cell membranes, what

60:25 saying is that it's not just permeable impermeable, that it's permeable to some

60:30 , but it's impermeable to other And so collect if we go through

60:34 entire list where we go. well, it, it has a

60:38 for certain things and a dis preference a lack of preference for another.

60:42 it is selective in what it allows pass back and forth across membrane.

60:46 it is selectively permeable. That selective is again, it's dependent upon a

60:52 of things. It it's dependent upon the soluble of the molecule that you're

60:57 at. And the solubility, what do is we just have to consider

61:00 or the other. Are we gonna about its solubility in lipid or we're

61:03 talk about solubility in water? You , get to choose what you want

61:06 talk about. I prefer talking about because they're the ones that are in

61:09 way. And that's what the membrane made of, right. So if

61:12 have something that's soluble in lipids, wall of lipid is not, is

61:17 gonna stop it from moving through Is it does that make sense?

61:21 in other words, if I'm lipid and I'm coming across a wall of

61:27 , that means I can go right through, right? I allow the

61:32 of those types of materials. But I'm not soluble in lipid, when

61:37 come across a plasma membrane that's made of lipids, I can't pass

61:43 It is a no go zone. so that's the first thing we have

61:47 consider is what is our permeability So things that are uncharged like

61:52 carbon dioxide, things that are non . In other words, lipid

61:57 they're just gonna go right on So water can pass right on through

62:01 plasma membrane. Well, not Excuse me, oxygen carbon dioxide,

62:06 is something weird. I'm gonna address in just a moment. But oxygen

62:09 dioxide just move down their concentration gradients wherever they want to go kind of

62:15 . All I gotta do is supply oxygen and my cells will get the

62:18 . Yeah, the speed at which get is gonna be dependent upon the

62:21 in which that oxygen arrives. Size . If I have big molecules,

62:29 molecules are hindered in their movement. I have small molecules, they can

62:33 around all over the place. So smaller the molecule, the easier it

62:37 for me to slip between two phospho . You ever take care of a

62:43 sibling or if you have a I have four kids, two sets

62:51 twins and you know what twins like do, they like to go in

62:55 direction, right? And I remember at a place where my son let

63:00 of my hand and off he went legs. Now, I'm a big

63:06 . I can't go between legs and who's three years old and is this

63:10 , can go through a lot of really, really quickly. Right.

63:15 matters. So, the smaller the , the easier it is to move

63:19 kids are gas molecules, by the , what sort of force is necessary

63:27 move that thing? All right, something doesn't require any sort of energy

63:33 it to move. In other it's just moving following the natural

63:36 concentration, electrical, that's a passive . All right. So we need

63:42 consider is this passive or is it in a direction that it doesn't want

63:46 go? This is what we refer as something as being active. It

63:50 a TP, the energy released from TP in some way, whether it's

63:54 to be directly acting on the molecule moves it or maybe you're using a

63:59 to create a gradient to force that that would be an indirect. So

64:04 can do either of those two So what we say is there's different

64:08 of movement, right? Any type transport, we have diffusion, we

64:13 what is called membrane transport and the transport. And then osmosis and

64:18 very brief nutshell diffusion is simply the of a molecule. So if it's

64:24 diffusion, we're saying we don't even a protein to do it a simple

64:28 is the molecule just moves. All . And that's what the next slide

64:33 is. When we're talking about a of a protein, this is gonna

64:38 some sort of diffusion that is So if it doesn't require energy,

64:44 refer to it as being passive. if it requires energy, we call

64:48 active diffusion or active transport is the that we commonly use. If we're

64:54 about water diffusion, that's what we osmosis. So any definition you've heard

65:00 osmosis that confuses you throw it away just say it is water diffusion,

65:06 water moving down its concentration gradient, end and I promise you everyone will

65:13 to confuse you with that definition. then we have the secular transport where

65:17 basically saying things are too big. we're gonna put things in a bubble

65:20 we're gonna move things literally across the by adding or subtracting from the

65:26 So here's simple diffusion right here. is stuff that you've been learning since

65:30 beginning of time. You throw a cube with dye in it or die

65:34 into water. They're all concentrated next each other. Everybody wants their elbow

65:38 , right? No one knows how got. When you came in the

65:40 , you guys kind of moved around said, I'm gonna find the most

65:43 around me as I possibly could. then someone sat next to you that

65:49 person is just weird but mostly what try to do is we try to

65:54 an equal space between all of And that's what the molecules are trying

65:57 do in diffusion. They're basically running each other, an equal rate so

66:01 they spread out equally. And that's equilibrium takes place. So diffusion is

66:05 to reach that steady state where there molecules equally distributed amongst the space that

66:12 found in. So this is right? You're always gonna move from

66:19 area of high concentration, an area low concentration, we refer to the

66:26 of molecules uh between the two So if you look at area A

66:30 B, more molecules are moving from to B than B to A.

66:34 there are things moving from B to , the difference between that is our

66:38 diffusion. All right. So just there's few over there like they're

66:42 oh OK, I'm fine over they will migrate and move around all

66:46 the place is just the probability of moving from A to B is greater

66:50 B to A. But when everything out, that's when you have that

66:54 diffusion or not, when you equal , when you're considering both those

66:59 there's greater movement in one direction. that would be the net diffusion.

67:04 takes is faster under certain conditions. you increase the slope, right?

67:10 make put more over here and less here, you're gonna go faster.

67:14 easy way to remember this. And is kind of hard in Houston.

67:16 if you get on a skateboard on flat surface, do you move?

67:20 . But if I create just a slope, is that skateboard gonna move

67:24 I wanna go faster. What do do make that slope slopes deeper?

67:28 a concentration rate. Put more over , they're gonna go faster, that

67:32 . That's number one second thing, distances, right? If I have

67:37 travel a long distance, that rate dis slows down. If I have

67:41 short distance it goes up. Here's one pathology, pneumonia. You guys

67:46 know what pneumonia is, right? , it's a condition usually through an

67:50 that causes a build up of water on the inside of the lungs.

67:54 distance between the inside of the capillary the inside of the alveoli is about

67:59 0.1 microns. It's very, very . But if you put just a

68:04 of molecules of water, you increase distance. If you double it,

68:07 reduced the rate of diffusion for oxygen carbon dioxide across that membrane because it

68:13 has to cross, not just but that water. That's why pneumonia

68:17 so debilitating because you have a hard moving the air, you need to

68:21 yourself alive, really the oxygen. um higher temperatures, this should make

68:27 if I add energy, temperatures, , right? If I increase the

68:31 of energy I put into the the faster the molecules are gonna bump

68:33 each other. Help you remember I see a couple of heads

68:38 This is good. Most people stare me at this point and I know

68:41 watching the time here. All Um If I take iced tea and

68:46 sugar in it, where does the go down to the bottom? So

68:50 do I mix in the sugar? add an energy, right? I

68:54 it up. How do you guys how to make sweet tea? Good

68:58 Southern recipe. What do you Boil the water and then you put

69:03 sugar in, right? So you've added the energy. So the sugar

69:07 oh and it moves all around, the difference. OK. So this

69:14 how you increase the rates of All right, diffusion can take place

69:20 an open system like we're seeing But if you put a partition

69:23 all you got to ask the question , is there permeability for that?

69:27 if you put a membrane in so like here, if those little

69:29 or those little dots represent water and put a membrane in there, that's

69:33 to water, then that's diffusion can that. But if you put um

69:38 uh a membrane in there, that's permeable to water, you're not gonna

69:41 simple diffusion. OK? You'll need sort of carrier, some sort of

69:46 to allow that to happen. Fixed is just something you should be kind

69:52 aware of. It basically describes all different things. So concentration gradient is

69:57 , as we mentioned, permeability of substance, the greater the permeability.

70:01 other words, the more chances that could get across the faster it'll

70:05 What's the surface area? Is it ? Is it small think of the

70:09 ? How many people can you fit the door at the same time?

70:12 at that door. What do you ? 1236, probably two, at

70:19 one. Definitely one, you questionable for maybe me but you

70:25 yeah thickness. So how far does have to travel? I don't know

70:32 I throw this slide up here I think it's because about it but

70:37 is what you're what you're looking at . This math, this horrible stuff

70:40 you're looking at going. Do I to know this and do I have

70:42 apply it on the exam? The is no, we teach you nurse

70:45 equation because what this does nurse equation you to see where equilibrium is gonna

70:52 met across the membrane when it comes something that has a charge to

70:58 So we know already that something wants move down its concentration gradient. But

71:04 are the things that are moving the and they also have an electrical gradient

71:07 moves in the opposite direction. That do. All right. So every

71:12 I move a positive ion from here here, I'm basically taking a charge

71:17 . And so now that charge is attracted back in the same direction that

71:20 came from. So notice that the gradient and the chemical gradient move in

71:25 directions. So you can use this to determine that point like where is

71:31 point where you, you don't move both directions where everything just stops.

71:36 what nernst equation does here. you have to memorize it now,

71:43 I wanna show it to you for reason only because you guys learned your

71:47 . You guys have walked yourself through two. You'll never use it ever

71:53 , right? The math you should is not CALC three just because you

71:57 take statistics because you'll use that, ? But let me show you something

72:02 . Do you guys remember ratios? ratio right here will tell you if

72:08 number is bigger than that number, you have a number greater than one

72:11 less than one greater? So if number is bigger than that one,

72:15 be less than. So you can this number here. And you

72:19 for example, the natural log of uh a number less than one is

72:24 be positive or negative, negative. negative time to negative plus that will

72:30 you basically the direction in which you're be going and which side of the

72:34 is positive, which side of the is negative. So it becomes a

72:37 tool, not so that you can there and calculate things out. But

72:40 can understand, oh, here's an an ion I've never seen before.

72:45 diffusing across a membrane. Where is equilibrium determined? Oh I can figure

72:50 out. It's when the inside of cell is negative. Oh it's when

72:53 inside of the cell is positive. all you're doing with that. So

72:58 like to throw things at you. like to figure out the math behind

73:00 this stuff. We're not doing math here. Repeat after me, we

73:03 not doing math in here. There go. Thank goodness. And some

73:08 you are like, but I like math. OK, just go play

73:11 that formula. Got a couple of here. We'll see what we can

73:16 through. All right. So as I mentioned, they have no

73:20 or the gates always open is usually you kind of think about it.

73:24 Actually, I I'm wrong. I that back. Poors never have a

73:28 have a gate. They do not a gate. I'll say that

73:30 I was wrong. You can send to my wife. I was

73:35 Poors do not have gates. You have gated channels that can be in

73:40 open state or closed state when it's its open state. It's considered an

73:44 channel. If it's closed, it's to as being gated because you can

73:48 and close it. All right. , most channels have these gates stuck

73:52 their closed state. So they, basically are spending your time. But

73:55 you hear something like a leak we'll use that term that's already has

73:59 gate. It's just the gate is open. Hence the leaking. All

74:04 , they are selective. Their selectivity based on their structure. So for

74:09 , you might have sodium and you have potassium, they both have a

74:13 of one. So they're both in same column on the periodic table,

74:16 ? Sodium is smaller than potassium, ? Double checking to see.

74:23 I think that's correct. All you can have a potassium channel that

74:27 allows potassium. It doesn't allow sodium because of the structure of the

74:32 You have a sodium channel, it only use sodium. All right,

74:36 not because just of the size of molecule it has to do with the

74:39 that make up the the channel So it is selective. Here's an

74:44 of that carrier that I was showing , right? So you can see

74:47 either open on one side or it's on the other side. When you

74:50 up, you will be stuck in middle, you're neither open or

74:54 This is how you move small organic , things like glucose, right?

75:00 that are usually more than an Although we'll see examples when you're moving

75:04 ions, you can use a It's a, it's a way to

75:07 so. All right, they don't a continuous passage whereas channels create

75:13 when they're open, create a continuous . Same way pores are a continuous

75:17 that water is allowed to pass All carriers have some degree of

75:25 some degree of competition or some degree saturation. And really all that means

75:28 specificity means I'm specific to the molecule can carry or the family of molecules

75:33 can carry. All right. So example that we can see here of

75:38 is glucose and glucose and galactose. you think back to when you learned

75:43 these things, you'll remember that they of have very, very similar

75:46 It's just a positioning one of hydroxyl on galactose relative to glucose. So

75:52 have a molecule that combine glucose very and galactose pretty well as an

75:58 All right, because they combine the thing in this particular case, there

76:04 be competition for the site if you both of them present. All

76:09 I believe that's what the actual thing . Yeah. So here if you

76:14 glucose and galactose present, they're basically there fighting over who's gonna bind

76:17 It's basically the musical chairs of right, which butt is gonna get

76:21 the slot. So competition can The other thing is saturation that's dependent

76:29 the number of carriers that are So if I have one door,

76:34 , if I have one door, the rate at which you guys can

76:37 out of this room dependent upon how people can actually pass through at the

76:41 time, but I can increase the by adding another door, right?

76:47 , saturation is dependent upon the presence the molecules. How many are present

76:51 how many of the car or not the carriers, but how many of

76:54 molecules you're actually trying to move? do I have? I got,

77:04 , I mentioned active transport. I I can get through this stuff.

77:08 don't know, we'll, we'll see if you're just like shut up and

77:11 leaving, we'll say we'll go, right, active transport. There are

77:15 different types. We've got primary active secondary here. What we're doing is

77:19 using energy usually in the form of TP to move a molecule against its

77:24 gradient. So when you're talking about here, you have a carrier that

77:30 an enzyme site associated with it. A P will bind to it,

77:34 will cleave the ATP release energy so it can change its shape. And

77:38 you can use the energy from that at P to do the work that

77:42 carrier is supposed to do. This the example of what the pump does

77:47 active transporter on the other hand doesn't enzymatic activity. Instead, it's relying

77:52 the pump activity of that primary active to create a potential energy gradient that

77:59 will then take advantage of to move substance against its gradient right now.

78:07 that doesn't make it easy to I'm gonna show you some pictures so

78:11 you can see this. All So here is the sodium potassium

78:16 I'm using a TP, I'm moving from inside the cell to outside the

78:21 . I'm moving at the same time outside the cell into the cell.

78:25 I'm creating this massive gradient of potassium the inside, massive gradient on sodium

78:31 the outside. So have I built potential energy? Sodium wants to go

78:36 potassium wants to go out. So I have to do is if sodium

78:41 to go in, I can say me create a character carrier that brings

78:45 sodium, but at the same time in something else. So I'm using

78:51 potential energy of sodium wanting to come to help me transport something into the

78:57 . Now I talked really slowly Believe it or not for those to

79:01 what? And I usually tell the and I'll have to wait till next

79:06 if you want to hear it about to school in New Orleans and about

79:09 nights and how it's a perfect example secondary active transport. We'll see if

79:18 guys are interested. I'm gonna yeah honestly we're already running out of time

79:25 gonna wait. Yeah it is 2 . Ok? So I'm gonna stop

79:30 when we come back. I'm gonna to I'm gonna try to summarize this

79:34 we move forward, ok? Just that we have some greater clarity.

79:38 good. Alright
