Compare and contrast methods of cell transport: diffusion/osmosis, facilitated diffusion, active transport, bulk transport (endocytosis, exocytosis). Describe whether each major type of transport is active or passive; uses transport proteins or not; moves molecules against the concentration gradient or with the concentration gradient. Minutes Activities/Materials Vocab Quiz IV 15 Describe functions of the lipid bilayer and the types of proteins in the 20 membrane: adhesion proteins; cell to cell communication proteins; receptor proteins; recognition proteins; passive transporters; active transporters. Use CD interaction & LCD projector to discuss types. Go over similarities & differences between diffusion; facilitated diffusion; & 20 active transport. Use transparency to show differences in concentration gradient and use of transport proteins. Students complete a chart to compare & contrast the three types of transport: direction; energy?; transport proteins? Example Compare & contrast isotonic, hypotonic, & hypertonic solutions.
