Animations for Osmosis, Diffusion, and Facilitated Diffusion

Animation for Osmosis: http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__how_osmosis_works.html






Use the Animations for Reviewing Diffusion, Osmosis, Active Transport, and Facilitated Diffusion before the test Wednesday October 19, 2011.

Quiz and Vocabulary Words

There will be a vocabulary quiz over the rest of the vocabulary words this coming Monday October 17, 2011. Good luck everyone.

Also, do not forget to turn in the packets by Wednesday October 19, 2011. I want to make sure the class has reviewed all the material for section 4 of chapter 7 before they take the test, which will help everyone obtain a better grade.
