AO1/AO2 – application of knowledge and understanding from Section 3.1.3 to understand the structure and function of plasma membranes. Learning objective Time taken Learning Outcome Learning activity with opportunity to develop skills Assessment opportunities Resources Required practical 4: Investigation into the effect of a named variable on the permeability of membranes. 0.8 weeks Identify key variables which affect membrane permeability. Represent raw and processed data clearly using tables and graphs. Apply knowledge of the fluid mosaic model to suggest how temperature/ alcohol affects membrane permeability. Evaluate the quality of results and reliability of conclusions. Learning activities: students design an experiment to investigate the effect of a named variable eg temperature or alcohol concentration on membrane permeability. This could include: working through key aspects of experimental design eg key variables carrying out (subject to teacher approval) processing and presentation of data. Skills developed by learning activities: Students undertake the BIO3T ISA Q from 2010
