Cell Membrane and Transport PowerPoint and Guided Notes Biology Keystone Aligned

Included in this post: animated PPT file with detailed instructor notes, PDF file with student notes and teacher answer key.

If you are looking for a COMPLETE PowerPoint and note packet for the structure and function of the cell membrane, this is it! The PowerPoint includes wonderful images, animations, and diagrams for your visual learners! Topics align to Unit 4 - Homeostasis and Transport of the Pennsylvania Biology Keystone Exam

Identify and describe the cell structures involved in transport of materials into, out of, and throughout the cell

• Describe how the structure of the plasma membrane allows it to function as a regulatory structure and/or protective barrier for a cell
• Compare the mechanisms that transport materials across the plasma membrane (ie, passive transport - diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion; and active transport - pumps, endocytosis, exocytosis)
• Describe how membrane-bound cellular organelles (eg, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus) facilitate the transport of materials within a cell
  Explain the mechanisms that permit organisms to maintain biological balance between their internal and external environments
• Explain how organisms maintain homeostasis (eg, thermoregulation, water regulation, oxygen regulation)
