Investigating Factors That Affect Cell Membrane Permeability

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Investigating Factors That Affect Cell Membrane Permeability lesson plan also includes:
  • Project
  • Join to access all included materials

Cell membranes and the factors that affect its integrity are studied, with Beet tissue used as the model. A poster to display findings of the permeability of the membranes would clarify understanding and also allow a layer of language arts preparation. Multiple online resources are linked to, and ideas suggested for extension activities.
