Document Summary

Objectives: describe the structure/function of the cell membrane & organelles, list and briefly describe the main functions of the cell. Reproduction & inheritance: describe the ways substances cross the cell membrane. Passive transport: diffusion molecules move from higher to lower concentrations, osmosis water moves through semi-permeable membrane, facilitated diffusion transport proteins move molecules from h. L concentration across plasma membrane: mediated transport transport proteins mediate, or assist, the movement of large, water-soluble molecules or electrically charged molecules or ions across the plasma membrane. Osmosis diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane from l. Osmotic pressure force required to prevent water from moving by osmosis across a selectively permeable membrane: compare hypotonic, isotonic, and hypertonic solutions and describe what would happen to a normal cell in each of these environments. Hypotonic- if a red blood cell were to be placed in a hypotonic solution, the cell would swell.
