Topic 4.2: Cell transport mechanisms (Edexcel A-level Biology B)

This bundle of 4 fully-resourced lessons have been planned to include a wide variety of tasks which will engage and motivate the students whilst covering the following points as detailed in topic 4.2 of the Edexcel A-level Biology B specification:

• The structure of the cell surface membrane, with reference to the fluid mosaic model
• Passive transport is brought about by diffusion and facilitated diffusion
• Passive transport is brought about by osmosis
• The relationship between the properties of molecules and the method by which they are transported
• Large molecules can be transported in and out of cells by endocytosis and exocytosis
• The process of active transport and the role of ATP
• The phosphorylation of ADP and the hydrolysis of ATP
