1. October 8, 2013 Warm Up: What is an e-?
Homework: Prepare for the vocabulary quiz and begin to work on the study guide for the Prokaryote and Eukaryote Cell Test Scheduled for Wednesday October 16, 2013
Class Work: Take Cornell Notes from the Diffusion and Osmosis Power Point.

2. Diffusion & Osmosis

3. Cell Membrane
Outer membrane of cell that controls movement in and out of the cell
Double layer

4. Define Diffusion
The movement of molecules from a area in which they are highly concentrated to a area in which they are less concentrated.

5. Draw a diagram of an example of diffusion we saw in class.

6. Define osmosis
The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane.

7. Define osmosis
Water moves from a high concentration of water (less salt or sugar dissolved in it) to a low concentration of water (more salt or sugar dissolved in it).  This means that water would cross a selectively permeable membrane from a dilute solution (less dissolved in it) to a concentrated solution (more dissolved in it).

8. Define osmosis

9. Define osmosis
In this picture a red blood cell is put in a glass of distilled water (all water with no salt or sugar in it).  Because there is a higher concentration of water outside the cell, water enters the cell by OSMOSIS.  In this case too much water enters and the cell swells to the point of bursting open.  In the end pieces of cell membrane are left in the water.

10. Define selectively permeable membrane
A membrane that allows only certain materials to cross it
Materials pass through pores in the membrane

11. Why are osmosis & diffusion important?
All living things have certain requirements they must satisfy in order to remain alive – maintain homeostasis
These include exchanging gases (usually CO2 and O2), taking in water, minerals, and food, and eliminating wastes.
These tasks happen at the cellular level.
Molecules move through the cell membrane by diffusion

12. Why are osmosis & diffusion important?
All living things have certain requirements they must satisfy in order to remain alive. These include exchanging gases (usually CO2 and O2), taking in water, minerals, and food, and eliminating wastes. These tasks ultimately occur at the cellular level, and require that molecules move through the membrane that surrounds the cell.

13. Why are osmosis & diffusion important?
This membrane is a complex structure that is responsible for separating the contents of the cell from its surroundings, for controlling the movement of materials into and out of the cell, and for interacting with the environment surrounding the cell.

14. PASSIVE TRANSPORT - TAKING THE EASY ROAD
Passive transport does not require energy for a substance to move across the plasma membrane.
Osmosis is an example of passive transport
Gradient: high concentration to low concentration

15. ACTIVE TRANSPORT - ENERGY TO TRANSPORT
Active transport describes what happens when a cell uses energy to transport something
