Transport System of Organisms Problems faced by Multicellular Organisms: a)Big size-the total surface area to volume (TSA/V) is decreased . Rate of diffusion of substances into and out of all body cells is low. b)Cells are often located far away from the external surface of the body. How multicellular organism overcome these problem? a)Have specialized structure to increase the surface area for the exchange of respiration gases. b)Have transport system to get gases respiration in and

Gaseous exchange and transport Movement of chemicals in plants and animals -Chemicals that are being moved into the body‚ within the body or out of the body are gases‚ this movement is known as gaseous exchange. -The gases being moved in our out of the body need to move across the surface area of the body‚ in most cases a special surface area has been developed. -The surface that the gases cross is called the respiratory surface and the gases move across this surface by the process of diffusion

Case Study: Newsflash! Transport Proteins on Strike! 1. What is the meaning behind the PHOSPHOLIPIDS’ chant? Phospholipids make up most of the cell membrane‚ in a phospholipid bilayer. Phospholipid molecules form two layers‚ with the hydrophilic (water loving) head facing the extracellular fluid and the cytosol (intracellular) fluid‚ and the hydrophobic (not water loving) tails facing one another. The cell membrane is constructed in such a way that it is semipermeable‚ and allows oxygen

keep it at the set point. All homeostatic mechanisms use a feedback loop to inform the body about any changes that occur externally or internally. There are two different kinds of homeostatic mechanisms: a positive feedback mechanism and a negative feedback mechanism. Positive feedback mechanisms boost physiological processes and amplify the system’s action to move the system away from the equilibrium state so it is more stable. Negative feedback mechanisms‚ on the other hand‚ maintain equilibrium

Active transport: requires that a cell expend energy to move molecules across a membrane against the solute’s concentration gradient (the side where it is more concentrated) Feedback inhibition: Metabolic reaction is blocked by its products. A product acts as an inhibitor of one of the enzymes in the pathway to regulate metabolism. Centriole: a structure in an animal cell composed of microtubule triplets arranged in a 9+0 pattern. An animal usually has a pair of centrioles within each of its centrosomes

Electron Transport Chain The first step in the electron transport chain process is for the NADH2 produced during glycolysis‚ the intermediate step‚ and the citric acid cycle to be attracted to Complex I (FMN ·FeS)due to its high affinity for NADH2. This attraction pulls NADH2 to Complex I (NAD dehydrogenase) and the two electrons from H2 are pulled off by the FeS (ferrous sulfate) leaving two H+ ions and NAD+. These molecules repel each other and this results in the NAD+ being recycled
