Test on enzymes organelles and cell transport

Quiz on diffusion osmosis passive and active transport

Know the terms: diffusion, osmosis, passive transport, facilitated transport, active transport,sodium potassium pump with the gradient or 'down the gradient' and 'against the gradient', endocytosis/phagocytosis pinocytosis, exocytosis. .

Monday work

I am out on a professional day. Using internet resources, draw diagrams of the following passive transport methods...diffusion, osmosis, facilitated transport. Then draw diagrams for the following active transport methods... sodium potassium pump, phagocytosis, exocytosis, pinocytosis. They can be on 8 x 11 white paper. title and label each diagram with an explanation for each.

in class work Wednesday

Compare the structures and organelles in three different cells: bacteria, plant and animal cells. 1. draw and label a picture for each. 2. What are the structures in Eukaryotic cells (animal and plant) that are not in a bacteria cell? 3. What is in a bacteria cell? 4. How is the DNA different in a bacteria cell compared to Plant or animal cells? %. Hoe is a cell wall different than a cell membrane? 6. what is plamolysis? 7. What is hemolysis? 8. Why is it bad if you are given distilled water in an intravenous injection or IV bag?

rubric

Fill out rubric, hand in lab.

thurs hw

Review the list of requirements for doing a valid experiment. Hand in your ORQ tomorrow. No need to improve on it, there will be another one soon that you can try harder and prepare for better. This first one does not count. Bring the results of your sowbug lab so we can write it in class.

wed hw

We will finish how to write a lab tomorrow. Review your notes on the importance of sample size. For Honors you have to know how to do the chi square test to show if the numbers are valid. Read the lab rubric also.
