Journal Entry:

What is the function of the cell membrane? What structures allow the cell membrane to complete this function?

Learning Intentions

We will learn the important components of the cell membrane and how to identify them in a model.

We will learn how the structure of each part of the cell membrane relates to its function.

We will learn how components of the cell membrane cause it to be selectively permeable

We will identify items that have similar properties as the components of the cell membrane that could be used to create a model.

Closing Task:

You can describe and draw representation of the structure and function of the cell membrane.

Content Standards being covered:

Topics:
ENE-2.A Describe the roles of each of the components of the cell membrane in maintaining the internal environment of the cell.
ENE-2.B Describe the Fluid Mosaic Model of cell membranes.

Science Practices:
2.A Describe characteristics of a biological concept, process, or model represented visually

Habits of Mind/Life skills being covered:

Creating, Imagining, Innovating
