Students will be evaluated upon the processes that move materials into and out of the cell, namely, passive and active transport. The former process will focus on diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion (carrier proteins), ion channels (transport proteins), and various types of cell environment including hypertonic, hypotonic or isotonic and their outcomes, namely, plasmolysis, cytolysis or equilibrium respectively; while the latter process will center on endocytosis in terms of its either phagocytosis or pinocytosis subprocess as well as exocytosis. Furthermore, students will elaborate upon the operation of Na+ Na+ Na+ out/K+ K+ in pump, i.e., certain carrier proteins or membrane pumps!
