1. Compare the shared structural and functional characteristics of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

2. Define organelle and use this definition to distinguish between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

3. Describe the structure and function of intracellular components (including organelles) found in eukaryotic cells and identify effects of dysfunction within each component

4. Identify how cell structure and organization might change depending on cellular function

5. Describe the role of the plasma membrane in creating a barrier between the cell and its external environment

6. Outline cellular structures utilized in membrane transport

7. Compare and contrast transport mechanisms (passive vs. active, simple vs. facilitated diffusion, and bulk transport) across the membrane and identify which will be used in various situation

8. Apply knowledge of membrane transport mechanisms to predict direction and rate of molecule movement given variable environmental conditions

9. Define intramolecular bonds as either polar covalent or non-polar covalent based on electronegativity differences

10. Characterize the charges of individual atoms within functional groups and/or molecules as full, partial, or neutral

11. Describe how intermolecular interactions result in the unique characteristics of water

12. Use structural formulas to classify hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions within molecules
