Plasma Membrane – Gateway to the Cell

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Just as skin covers your body limiting what can go in and out, plasma membranes cover cells to do the same. Scholars begin with a presentation that gives overview of the structure and function of plasma membranes. Then, they learn how cell membranes control what goes in and out of a cell. A worksheet, online animations, and flashcard game reinforce the content using multiple learning styles.
