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...

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...

An information-packed eight-page article detailing the history of understanding active transport across cell membranes makes up the bulk of this handout. Two pages of reading comprehension and critical-thinking questions follow. The...

Give this summary of 16 pages of a text to your class to deepen understanding of cell permeability, diffusion, ions, and more. The handout portion includes vocabulary clarifications, detailed color diagrams, and important information;...

Learners roleplay to review nerve communication and the parts of the neuron. Each student represents a different part of a neuron and as parts become polarized and depolarized they act it out. A surprise occurs at the synaptic knob as...

A note-taking resource for the topic of transport between cells. If formatting is important to you, there are some slight changes you'll need to make to this Word document to make it consistent. 

For this preparation of triiodomethane learning exercise, students use propanone to prepare triiodomethane. Students use filtration and recrystallization to produce the product. They determine the melting point using a melting point...

This online biology book chapter offers definitions and descriptions of the nervous system's components.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this online tutorial students will explain how nerve impulses are transmitted.

Investigate ATP structure, ATP hydrolysis to ADP, and reaction coupling in this article.

Students compare and contrast passive and active transport by playing a game to model this phenomenon. Movement through cell membranes is also modeled, as well as the structure and movement typical of the fluid mosaic model of the cell...

Choose the chapter called "Active and Passive Transport" from the table of contents for explanations, comparisons, and examples of active and passive transport. This includes an illustrative diagram.

This comprehensive study guide covers the main terms and concepts needed for a unit on cell transport and homeostasis.

Explore the process of active transport.
