points of the cell theory from your homework last night. 2)Describe
the difference between unicellular and multicellular organisms.
Homework: Complete the practice found on the last notebook page for
today Cell the basic unit of all life Semi-permeable some objects
can pass through cell membrane (mostly water) Basic Cell
Organelles: Cell Membrane protects cell/gatekeeper Cytoplasm fluid
inside cell/ helps keep shape Nucleus typically holds cells genetic
material Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic Organisms Prokaryotic
single-celled organisms, no nucleus - usually bacteria, not very
complex Eukaryotic multi-cellular organisms, nucleus - usually more
complex with more organelles Movement Into and Out of Cells:
Diffusion: movement from an area of high concentration to low
concentration Osmosis: diffusion of water across a semi- permeable
membrane Tuesday, January 15, 2013 Wednesday, January 16, 2013
Slide 2 Using Energy to Transport Materials Across the Cell
Membrane Two Main Categories: Passive Transport/Diffusion (usually
small particles) Moves substances from areas of high concentration
to areas of low concentration Example: Food coloring added to a
beaker of water:beforeafter Active Transport (usually larger
particles) Relies on the cell using energy (ATP) to move particles
across the membrane Three Categories: 1. Transport Proteins:
Special proteins use energy/ATP to pump materials into cell
(gatekeeper) 2. Endocytosis: membrane surrounds particles to move
them inside (see diagram on next slide) 3. Exocytosis : release of
substances from inside vesicles through joining and then releasing
from the cell membrane (see diagram on next slide) Slide 3
Exchanging materials between the cell and its environment Passive
TransportActive Transport Diffusion Osmosis Transport Proteins use
ATP Endocytosis (reverse for Exocytosis) Slide 4 Videos and
Examples Passive and Active Transport Animations Endocytosis and
Exocytosis Animation Slide 5 Homework/Practice DIRECTIONS- First
Identify if the process is moving materials by active or passive
transport. Then determine if the process is diffusion, osmosis,
transport proteins, endocytosis, or exocytosis. 1. WATER MOVES OUT
OF PLANT LEAF, CAUSING IT TO WILT AND DRY. 2. IF YOU PLACE A TEA
BAG IN WATER AND TEA IS MADE. 3. IF FOOD THAT IS TOO LARGE TO ENTER

Cycle Notes Warm Up: Homework: Cell cycle - normal sequence of the
development and division of a cell Three main stages: 1) Interphase
- cell is performing normal functions and preparing to divide - the
longest part of the cycle - cell grows about twice its original
size - goes about regular cell activities - DNA is copied to
prepare for mitosis 2) Mitosis- nucleus splits and divides -
prokaryotes do not do this (no nucleus) - usually the shortest
period in cycle - goal of mitosis is to transfer DNA and other cell
structures from parent cell to new cell 3) Cytokinesis occurs
directly after mitosis - parent cell pinches off - two genetically
identical cells form Wednesday, January 23, 2013 Thursday, January

Exercise, and Energy Project calorie - with a lowercase c, the term
refers to the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of
one gram of water one degree Celsius. Context: When it comes to
staying healthy, counting calories is just one aspect. Calorie -
with an uppercase C, the term refers to the amount of energy
required to raise one kilogram of water (about 2.2 pounds) one
degree Celsius; one Calorie, or kcal, is equal to 1,000 calories.
Context: Nutrition is measured in Calories. diet - everything that
is consumed. A balanced diet is based on the principle that
healthful foods and appropriate nutrients must be consumed each day
Context: Eating a healthful diet helps prevent high cholesterol,
high blood pressure, heart disease, and many other health problems.

recommended daily servings in each of the six food groups; designed
by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Context: Use the Food Guide
Pyramid as a general guide to help you choose a healthful diet.

classify all living organisms using similarities and differences
-Before the 1700s there was not system everyone could agree on and
it make naming organisms very confusing Classification : uses
behaviors, physical characteristics (color/size/shape) and/or DNA -
creates a frame of reference for large groups of organisms (all
cats have similar characteristics) -Ancient species who share
traits with modern species are grouped together and typically
considered ancestors. Naming Species: Written as Genus then species
-This makes naming organisms easier and universal throughout the
world -The more names an organism shares with another organism the
more closely related to two each other (see upside down triangle) -
