I can name the carbohydrate that primarily makes up the cell wall in plants.
I can name & describe the structure of the lipid that primarily makes up the cell membrane using the terms
hydrophilic and hydrophobic.
I can list the different functions of the cell membrane and cell wall.
I can describe the functions of the following types of proteins found in the plasma membrane:
Marker protein
Transport protein (Channel & Carrier)
Receptor protein Enzymatic protein
I can describe the fluid mosaic model of the cell membrane.

When given a scenario, I can determine which protein in the cell membrane would be utilized.

Learning Target #2
Predict the movement of molecules across a selectively permeable membrane (diffusion, osmosis, active transport) needed for a
cell to maintain homeostasis given concentration gradients and different sizes of molecules.
(change to send to S. Brown)
 I can define the terms selectively permeable or semi-permeable in relation to membranes.

Facilitated diffusion
Active transport
Endocytosis Exocytosis

 I can explain the following terms:
Hypertonic
Hypotonic
Isotonic
Turgor Pressure

Given a molecule (Na+, Cl-, glucose, amino acids, water, proteins, starch, O2, CO2) I can predict the method of
transport used across the membrane (osmosis, diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, endocytosis,
exocytosis)
I can predict the amount of solutes found in each solution once equilibrium has been reached.
I can give examples of how the body maintains homeostasis.
I can predict what would happen to cells put in different solutions (hypertonic, hypotonic, & isotonic).
I can compare two solutions to determine which one is hypertonic, which is hypotonic, and if they are
isotonic.
Given two solutions, I can predict which way solutes would move and which way water would move.
I can predict what would happen to turgor pressure if cells are placed in a solution.
