Cell Membrane and Transport CW/HW
Directions: Pictured below is a cross section of a typical cell membrane. Use the numbers and terms to
color each part. Color in the with the color that you are using for that term in the diagram. Once you
have colored something one time, you should be able to find other examples of it in the membrane. Color all
examples of it you see. By the time you have finished, ALL parts of the membrane should be colored in.
1. Phospholipids-- 1a. head 4. Carbohydrates
1b. tail 5. Protein Channels
2. Cholesterol (another kind of lipid) 6. Cytoplasm
3. Proteins -- 3a. Integral Protein
3b. Peripheral Protein
Use the above diagram and your notes to answer the following questions:
1. The ____________________________ separates eukaryotic animal cells from their surroundings. It also
controls what can enter and exit the cell in all types of cells.
2. In plants and prokaryotes, the ______________ is the outermost layer that separates cells from their
surroundings.
3. The plasma is made up of three organic compounds, they are: ______________________,
______________________, and ______________________.
4. Which type of organic compound makes up the majority of the cell membrane?
_____________________
5. The cell membrane structure can be shown using the ______________________________ model.
6. How many layers make up the cell membrane? ____________
7. What type of macromolecule can form channels that allow large or charged molecules to move through
the membrane? _______________________
8. Does the type of movement described in Question 6 require energy? ______
9. What type of macromolecule acts as an identification marker? _______________________
10. Label the Phospholipid. Include the terms: Phosphate Head, Fatty Acid Tail, Hydrophilic, Hydrophobic

Solutions, Concentrations, and Passive transport
Directions: 1. Label concentrations as low or high and 2. include arrows and label them as which way the
SOLUTE would move and which way the SOLVENT would move in passive transport (no energy required).
