  13. Contrast between a cilia and flagella. 
  14. Contrast between a prokaryotic cell and an eukaryotic cell (study the table indicated by B-16). 
  15. Contrast between chromatin and chromosomes. 
  16. Describe the parts of the cell wall-middle lamella, plasmodesmata, primary cell wall, secondary cell wall. 
  17. List three differences between higher plant cells and higher animal cells with respect to the presence or absence of cell wall, chloroplasts, and centriole. 
  18. Explain the following terms and describe how they are used during the transport of material into and out of a cell-simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, osmosis, (selective permeable, plasmolysis, turgid). 
  19. Explain the model of active transport, using protein carriers and energy. 
  20. Given a description of the solution in which cells are immersed you should be able to explain which way water molecules will move. Define hypotonic solution, hypertonic solution and isotonic solution. 
  21. Explain how nitrogenous waste is eliminated in the following organisms: flatworms, earthworms, vertebrate.  Lesson five (Cell Transport: Involvement in Humans) - Beta webpages.
  22. List the parts of the human excretory  system and explain their functions (ureter; bladder; renal artery, vein, medulla, cortex; nephron ). 
  23. Explain the exchange of NaCl, H2O, urea in the loop of Henle and the solution outside the nephron in relation to osmosis, diffusion and active transport.  Lesson five (Cell Transport: Involvement in Humans) - Beta webpages.
  24. Explain how kidneys are organs of homeostasis (Include the regulation of water content of the blood ).  Lesson five (Cell Transport: Involvement in Humans) - Beta webpages.
  25. Explain hemodialysis.  Lesson five (Cell Transport: Involvement in Humans) - Beta webpages.
  26. Explain how mammalian kidneys are adapted to diverse environments. Lesson five (Cell Transport: Involvement in Humans) - Beta webpages.
  27. List the difference between the primary, secondary (alpha and beta), tertiary, and quaternary structure of protein. 
  28. Explain what an enzyme does in living cells. 
  29. Describe the hypothesis explaining how an enzyme works using the terms active site, substrate, and product. 
  30. Explain the following terms: active site, substrate, product. 
  31. Explain what would happen if the protein which makes up an enzyme were changed. List ways in which a protein may be changed (pH, temperature, inhibitors - allosteric, competitive, and noncompetitive). 
  32. List the enzymes secreted by the salivary glands and the substances they break down. Lesson six (Enzymes : Involvement in Human Digestive System) - Beta webpages.
  33. List three effects HCl has in the stomach. Lesson six (Enzymes : Involvement in Human Digestive System) - Beta webpages.
  34. Describe where the duodenum, liver, and pancreas are located and explain how they are used during the digestion of food. Lesson six (Enzymes : Involvement in Human Digestive System) - Beta webpages.
  35. List the enzymes secreted by the pancreas and the substrates they break down. Lessonsix (Enzymes : Involvement in Human Digestive System) - Beta webpages.
