Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:

Distinguish the varying permeability of lipid bilayers to different types of molecules.
Contrast the mechanisms of active and passive molecule transport.
Recognize the three modes of active transport and the various classes of ion channels and carrier molecules.
Establish a connection between the expression of particular transport proteins and the functions of the cell.
Explain the structure of the plasma membrane by referring to the fluid mosaic model.

How do virtual labs work?

Enhance students' involvement in science by immersing them in interactive learning scenarios. Create simulations for experiments, provide hands-on training in laboratory techniques, and convey theoretical concepts through captivating visual experiences to improve their overall long-term learning outcomes.

Access web-based simulations that are compatible with laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and iPads, eliminating the need for software installation.
Incorporate a teacher dashboard for automated grading and monitoring of student progress.
Utilize embedded quizzes to assist students in mastering scientific content.
Comprehensive repository of educational materials, including learning resources, lab reports, videos, theory pages, graphics, and more.
