CA State Standards
1. The fundamental life processes of plants and animals depend on a variety of chemical reactions that occur in specialized areas of the organism's cells. As a basis for understanding this concept:
A: Students will know cells are enclosed within semipermeable membranes that regulate their interaction with the environment.
•C: Students know how prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells (including those from plants and animals), and viruses differ in general complexity and structure.
•E: Students will know the role of the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex in the secretion of proteins.
•F: Students will know that usable energy is captured from sunlight by chloroplasts, and stored via the synthesis of sugar from carbon dioxide.
•G: Students will know the role of the mitochondria in making stored chemical-bond energy available to cells by completing the breakdown of glucose to carbon dioxide.
•J: Students know how eukaryotic cells are given shape and internal organization by a cytoskeleton or cell wall or both.

Crossing the Membrane Worksheet

Cell Membranes: Diffusion is the net movement of particles (atoms, molecules, or ions) from a highly concentratd region to a region of low concentration. Understanding diffusion through a membrane is a key biology concept. Take this interactive tour to help you master the process and terminology.
