Osmoregulation = Water Balance
Osmoreguatation = all organisms must regulate internal water concentrations to remove excess water or prevent water loss
– Remove excess water:
– Contractile vacuoles - protists
– Freshwater organisms – kidneys, gills
– Prevent water loss:
– Guard cells in plants

5.7 SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY: Research on another membrane protein led to the discovery of aquaporins
Dr. Peter Agre received the 2003 Nobel Prize in chemistry for his discovery of aquaporins.
His research on the Rh protein used in blood typing led to this discovery.

Active Transport
In active transport, a cell
– must expend energy to
– move a solute against its concentration gradient.
The following figures show the four main stages of active transport.

5.9 Exocytosis and endocytosis transport large molecules across membranes
There are three kinds of endocytosis.
1. Phagocytosis is the engulfment of a particle by wrapping cell membrane around it, forming a vacuole.
2. Pinocytosis is the same thing except that fluids are taken into small vesicles.
3. Receptor-mediated endocytosis uses receptors in a receptor-coated pit to interact with a specific protein, initiating the formation of a vesicle.

5.10 Cells transform energy as they perform work
Energy = capacity to cause change or to perform work.
Two kinds of energy:
1. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.
2. Potential energy is energy that matter possesses as a result of its location or structure.
Heat = thermal energy
Chemical energy = potential energy available in bonds within molecules and released in a chemical reaction.
– Most relevant energy to living organisms

Thermodynamics = study of energy transformations
First law of thermodynamics = energy in the universe is constant
– Biological organisms cannot produce energy - only convert forms of energy
Second law of thermodynamics = energy conversions increase the disorder (entropy) of the universe.
– No energy transformations are 100 % efficient
– Usuable energy lost as heat
– Energy transformations are one-way street
– Biological organisms require constant supply of energy to maintain order!!
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Metabolism = total of an organism’s chemical reactions
Chemical reactions are either
– Exergonic reactions release energy.
– These reactions release the energy in covalent bonds of the reactants.
– Cellular respiration
An endergonic reaction
– requires an input of energy; products contain more chemical/potential energy
– Photosynthesis
Energy coupling = energy released from exergonic reactions drive endergonic reactions!!

Cells need energy to perform work!!
There are three main types of cellular work:
1. chemical
2. mechanical
3. transport
ATP drives all three of these types of work.

ATP = renewable source of energy for the cell.
ATP cycle = energy released in an exergonic reaction is used in an endergonic reaction to generate ATP.
Enzymes = Organic catalysts
Increase RATE of chemical reaction by decreasing activation energy (EA).
– EA = energy barrier must be overcome before any chemical reaction can begin.

A specific enzyme catalyzes each cellular reaction
An enzyme
– Is specific in substrate(s) it binds
– And reaction it catalyzes
Substrate = reactant
A substrate binds at enzyme active site.
Enzymes are specific because their active site fits only specific substrate molecules
– Active site is result of 3D folding of protein

Factors that Effect Enzyme-Catalyzed Reactions
For every enzyme, there are optimal conditions under which it is most effective.
– Temperature
– pH
– Substrate Concentration
– Enzyme Concentration
– Cofactors/coenzymes

Factors that Affect Enzyme-Catalyzed Reactions
Many enzymes require nonprotein helpers called cofactors, which
– bind to the active site and function in catalysis.

Enzyme inhibition
Competitive inhibitors
– block substrates from entering the active site and
– reduce an enzyme’s productivity.
Noncompetitive inhibitors
– bind to the enzyme somewhere other than the active site,
– change the shape of the active site, and
– prevent the substrate from binding.
