Main Topics:
Can you give examples of membrane bound organelles in eukaryotes, describing both structure and function for each?
Can you explain why is compartmentalization in eukaryotic cells helpful in maintaining homeostasis?
Are you able to compare and contrast endocytosis with exocytosis, giving examples of each?
Are you able to compare and contrast passive and active transport giving examples of each?
Are you able to compare and contrast different forms of passive transport giving examples of each: simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis?
Can you describe what can move through the integral proteins of the membrane and explain why they can be transported this way?
Can you describe what can move through the phospholipid bilayer of the membrane and explain why they can be transported this way?
Can you describe the structure of the fluid mosaic model of the cell membrane?
Can you explain how the ability of the plasma membrane to be selectively permeable maintains homeostasis within a cell?
