Academic Biology – 9th grade, 2015 – 2016
Week of November 30 – December 4
Keystone Objectives:




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 (i.e., passive transport –
diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion; and active transport – pumps, endocytosis, and exocytosis)
Describe how membrane-bound cellular organelles (e.g., endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus)
facilitate the transport of materials within a cell
Explain how organisms maintain homeostasis (e.g., thermoregulation, water regulation, oxygen
regulation)
