Membranes regulate the traffic of molecules

Objective: 1. Students will be able to distinguish between osmosis and diffusion, as well as give examples of each process. 2. Students will be able to identify the three methods for things to enter/exit the cell (active transport, passive transport, exo/endocytosis).

The plan:
complete reading quiz
finish membrane protein function notes
fill in guided notes on osmosis and diffusion
review
