- Worked on cell cycle activity

Homework:
Chapter 3 review due Monday at review session
Next week Wednesday- Test

Active Transport

Do Now:
Define, diagram and label the following concepts: hypotonic, hypertonic, and isotonic
Describe the difference between diffusion and osmosis.
What is meant by a concentration gradient, and how do molecules of diffusion move in respect to this gradient?
