Your presence is mandatory! There will be no make-ups!Presentations must be uploaded onto the presentations link under social activities on the moodle website by 5:00 PM on Friday, March 1, 2013 (2 weeks before due date) to be approved by your lifeline leader.Approval is necessary to allow us to ensure that your file will open properly on the lifeline computers (if your presentation is not being made on a computer, a file does not need to be uploaded, however you must still post your topic and method of presenting on moodle).NOTE: Lifeline computer is a PC and not a Mac! If your presentation is made on a Mac, open it on a PC to make sure it works.You must also turn in your presentation, jump drive, CD, etc. during your lifeline one week before your group will present (Make sure the size of your file isnt too large!)

Point BreakdownThe presentation will be worth 10 points, with the possibility of 3 extra credit points for those that do an amazing and completely original job (Thus, a possible 13 total points!)Groups that fail to submit their presentations on moodle by the deadline will still be allowed to present, but will receive an automatic 3-point deduction from their grade.How you present the material is entirely up to you! Be creative (extra credit will be awarded for creativity)! The following slides will show an example of a standard PowerPoint presentation, followed by additional links for other presentation ideas.The Cell MembraneThe Phospholipid

PhospholipidsPhospholipids make up most of the cell membrane.They are amphipathic, containing a hydrophilic polar head and hydrophobic non-polar tail.

PhospholipidsDue to their amphipathic nature, phospholipids can form micelles in water.Micelles are spheres with the hydrophillic head of the phospholipid toward the outside and the hydrophobic tails towards the inside.

PhospholipidsThe amphipathic property of phospholipids allow cell membranes to form.
