Make cell transport engaging and interactive with this Membrane Transport Digital Notebook designed for high school biology students.

This comprehensive digital notebook guides students through the structure and function of the fluid mosaic model of the plasma membrane and explores the major mechanisms of passive and active transport. Students build their own membrane model, label structures, analyze animations, complete drag-and-drop activities, and apply their knowledge to real biological examples.

Perfect for digital classrooms, this resource encourages students to actively construct their understanding of how molecules move across cell membranes.

Students investigate:

• Fluid Mosaic Model of the Plasma Membrane
• Phospholipids and membrane structure
• Integral, peripheral, and channel proteins
• Glycoproteins and membrane recognition
• Passive Transport
• Simple diffusion
• Facilitated diffusion
• Osmosis
• Effects of hypotonic, isotonic, and hypertonic environments
• Active Transport
• Primary active transport
• Secondary active transport
• Uniport, symport, and antiport transport proteins
• Sodium–potassium pump and neural transmission
