
Eukaryotic vs prokaryotic; unicellular vs multi cellular; plant vs animal

Cell lab

Symbiotic theory of cell evolution
The Cell and its Environment

Power point summary notes will be a useful review

Water potential (help!!!! :( )

I had given you a rather complete outline for your test on this .... re-visit that...
