Students are challenged to eat some candy as a cell would need to do it. By solving this problem students simulate the cell process called endocytosis. They think about some of the problems that arise when a cell ingests food.
Students, working in a science lab, analyze how small and large molecules move from one side to the membrane to the other via channels and pores, or exocytosis and endocytosis.
Biology pupils take the cell membrane apart piece-by-piece as they complete this worksheet. They describe the structure of the cell membrane and explain the processes that transport materials across it. This phenomenal resource even has a diagram of a passive transport demonstration for learners to analyze.
Critical thinking questions accompany a data chart and vocabulary terms about cell structure and function. By completing this two-page worksheet, your class reviews fundamental concepts about the cell. Though it was intended as a chapter reading guide for a specific text, it should be easily adaptable to your curriculum.
High school science classes will find this video intriguing. Viruses contain genetic information, but there are strong arguments for whether viruses are living or not. Replication versus metabolism and some details about the immune response are covered.
AP biology buffs dismantle the mystery of the cell membrane by explaining its structure and function. They decipher membrane fluidity, define the roles of membrane proteins, and analyze a diagram of a selectively permeable membrane experiment. Ms. Foglia has definitely written a thought-provoking worksheet that you can assign as homework or use as an in-class review.
In this transport worksheet, students compare and contrast the characteristics and examples of active transport and passive transport. This worksheet has 1 graphic organizer and 11 short answer questions.
Mathematicians analyze the relationships between surface area and volume. They conduct Internet research, conduct various experiments, record the data in a spreadsheet, and graph the results and compare the rate of increase of surface area to the rate of increase of volume.
A worthwhile presentation on cell transport awaits you! This systematically explains highlights of passive and active transport, the concentration gradient, diffusion and osmosis, and three types of environments that allow osmosis. Using simple, brightly colored diagrams, concepts explained in text are made more clear. Add this to your arsenal of biology curriculum resources.
Your students will love this PowerPoint! Great visuals will support understanding of membrane proteins, cell membranes, active transport, and diffusion. There are a lot of details on each page and all are relevant. The presentation could be split into sections to support a worksheet or to create a self-test paper.
