Cells/Diffusion/Osmosis
1. Which organelles are exclusive to plant cells?
2. Know the order of organization: Cells -> Tissues -> Organs -> Organ Systems -> Organisms
3. Know how to calculate magnification.
4. Osmosis is different from diffusion because osmosis is ONLY __________________ particles
and for osmosis those particles must travel through a semi-permeable ________________.
5. In diffusion particles will always move _____________ a concentration gradient.
