Key Concepts
- Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic Cells
- The Plasma Membrane
- phospholipid bilayer "fluid mosaic model"
- role of cholestoerol makes membranes flexible (pliable)
- polar/hydrophillic (water liking) heads outside
- non-polar hydrophobic (water hating) tails inside
- Cell Organelles
- most important = nucleus, E.R., golgi
- Stages of Mitosis = PMAT
- Cell Transport
- Diffusion and Osmosis
- Occurs on a Concentration Gradient
- particles move from low to high concentrations
- Carbon Dioxide and Water are examples of molecules that enter a cell via diffusion
- Active and Passive Transport
- Levels of Organization, from least to most complex..
- cells -> tissues -> organs -> organ systems ->organism

It's final time. Here's a few things that will be helpful...
The final will cover Chapters 1,2, and 10-13. The most important chapters are 10 and 11. It is worth 12.5% of your overall grade, so it could move you up or down 1 grade.

How to study for the final:
1. If your journal is good, review all your warm-ups, notes and review questions. Many of the warm-up questions will be on the test.
2. Review the BioDigests for units 1, 3 and 4 in the whale book.
3. Review the Study Guide pages at the end of each chapter on the final. Even better, copy the key ideas a few times and review them as much as possible.
4. Review the vocabulary words below and definitions for each chapter covered. Make flash cards or use another vocabulary technique or strategy to memorize them. Ideally, you should be able to define or describe each term in your own words.
5. Google. Look up vocabulary words or concepts you don't understand.
6. Review the old/graded work and tests that were returned to you in class.
7. Form study groups.
