About

**No Prior knowledge required"
Cells are one of the biggest parts of biology as a topic. The aim of this session is to go over everything we know about cells and even more. 
Topics:
- Cell Theory
- Famous Scientists in the cell theory
- Types of cells (eukaryotic, prokaryotic, etc.)
- Cell organelles and functions/Cytoskeleton
 - The Cell membrane and Fluid Mosaic Model
 - Cell transport (osmosis, diffusion, facilitated diffusion) 
- Hypertonic, Hypotonic, Isotonic Solutions

**If the times don't work for you, please send me a message, I may or may not be able to change the schedule slightly.**

**Participation is a MUST. This series will involve a lot of practice questions and interactivity, so I at least ask all of you to participate, whether you want to unmute, talk in the chat, etc.**

Hey everyone, I'm Pranav, a Senior from Virginia! I've loved math and programming since middle school, so why not tutor it? If you don't find me binge-watching YouTube, then you'll find me out on a volleyball or tennis court (my 2 favorite sports!). I hope I'll get the chance to meet you guys in some of my sessions! If you're curious about the awesome things I've built, take a look at my portfolio: https://pranavkonjeti.com
