The inner life of a cell is laid out like a science fiction film. With dramatic music playing in the background, show your learners how the organelles interact and perform. This highly scientific clip is very detailed and is geared...

Soap, suds, and cell membranes. Pupils create a model of a cell membrane by using soap films. They experiment with trying to pass different objects through the film without popping it. Using a tube, they create a passageway through the...

Just as skin covers your body limiting what can go in and out, plasma membranes cover cells to do the same. Scholars begin with a presentation that gives overview of the structure and function of plasma membranes. Then, they learn how...

Pump it up! Learn how a special protein called the sodium-potassium pump allows certain molecules or ions to pass through a cell's plasma membrane. 

How do you get there from here? Explore the three main types of transport within a cell: active, passive, and bulk transport. Reinforce concepts of previous videos with this ninth video of a 10-part series.

Are you afraid of water or aren't you? Learn about the composition of the plasma membrane of a cell. The clip describes why the plasma membrane is structured in this way and how this formation is useful for the cell.  

Young scientists demonstrate their understanding of cell transport on this comprehensive worksheet. Focusing on cellular structure and the different processes that allow materials to move into, out of, and throughout animal cells, this...

Take your biology class on an exploration of the inner workings of cells with this multimedia presentation. Looking closely at the structure of cell membranes and the processes of osmosis and diffusion, this resource explains for...

This quiz just looks neat! It has two cell diagrams for biology class members to label. They also describe the function of each organelle. A prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell are displayed for them to compare, and then they fill in the...

Biology pupils take the cell membrane apart piece-by-piece as they complete this worksheet. They describe the structure of the cell membrane and explain the processes that transport materials across it. This phenomenal resource even has...

In this homeostasis and the plasma membrane worksheet, students complete a flow chart and 5 questions related to homeostasis and the plasma membrane. They complete a flow chart that illustrates the plasma membrane and cellular transport....

In this homeostasis and plasma membrane worksheet, students use the given diagram to answer 5 questions at the bottom of the sheet. They determine what the outside layers of a plasma membrane are made up of. Then, students explain how...

In this homeostasis and plasma membrane worksheet, students complete 4 different questions related to the diagram shown at the top of the sheet. They draw an arrow across the plasma membrane in the diagram to show which way water...

In this biology activity, 9th graders identify and locate various vocabulary terms found in the study of living things. There are 31 biology terms located in the word search.
