February 2014
BIOLOGY:
The student will compare and contrast prokaryotic and eukaryotic organelles. Organize organelles by cellular function (catabolic and anabolic roles). Investigate passive, and active transport cellular mechanisms. In addition, quantify the inter-relationship between cellular respiration and photosynthesis.
