Cell Transport Learning Target #2
3.2.F.b. Predict the movement of molecules across a selectively permeable membrane needed for a cell to maintain homeostasis given
concentration gradients and different sizes of molecules.
Knowledge Targets

I can define: polarity, polar molecule, passive transport, active transport, diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion
I can differentiate between active and passive transport
Reasoning Targets

I can predict the method of transport based on the molecule, using criteria such as molecule size and polarity
and whether or not energy is expended (water, glucose, gases – O2 and CO2, )
I can predict the movement of molecules using diffusion
I can predict the movement of molecules using osmosis
I can predict the movement of molecules using facilitated diffusion
I can predict the movement of molecules using active transport

Cell Transport Learning Target #3
3.2.F.c Explain how water is important to cells (e.g., is a buffer for body temperature, provides soluble environment for chemical reactions,
serves as a reactant in chemical reactions, provides hydration than maintains cell turgidity, maintains protein shape).
