    Concept 6.1 Biologists use microscopes and the tools of biochemistry to study cells 1. The study of cells has been limited by their small size, and so they were not seen and described until 1665, when Robert Hooke first looked at dead cells from an oak tree. His contemporary, Anton van Leeuwenhoek, crafted lenses and with the improvements in optical aids, a new world was opened. Magnification and resolving power limit what can be seen. Explain the difference. Magnification is the ratio of an object’s image size to its real size. Resolution is a measure of the clarity of the image; it is the minimum distance two points can be separated and still be distinguished as two points. 2. The development of electron microscopes has further opened our window on the cell and its organelles. What is considered a major disadvantage of electron microscopes? The methods used to prepare the specimen kill the cells. 3. Study the electron micrographs in your text. Describe the different types of images obtained from: scanning electron microscopy (SEM): Answers may vary, but should describe the 3-D component of the specimen image. transmission electron microscopy (TEM) Answers may vary, but should mention that this type of microscopy profiles a thin section of a specimen, resulting in various views of the cells prepared. 4. In cell fractionation, whole cells are broken up in a blender, and this slurry is centrifuged several times. Each time, smaller and smaller cell parts are isolated. This will isolate different organelles and allow study of their biochemical activities. Which organelles are the smallest ones isolated in this procedure? Ribosomes Concept 6.2 Eukaryotic cells have internal membranes that compartmentalize their functions 5. Which two domains consist of prokaryotic cells? Bacteria and Archaea 6. A major difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is the location of their DNA. Describe…

    Cigarettes Lab Report

    Cigarettes contain harmful chemicals that can affect how the body filters and cleans our lungs. The smoke interferes with the cilia’s job of keeping the lungs clear of dirt and dust and when there is too much smoke they become paralyzed which results in the buildup the mucus and toxic chemicals. Smoking affects lungs its important to look at the carcinogenic effects of it. A carcinogen is any substance that promotes carcinogenesis (the formation of cancer). It has been proven that cigarettes release more then 20 carcinogens know to promote lung cancer into your body. (Hecht, 2010). When looking at the cilia exposed to cigarette smoke in this lab it is seen that they have been greatly slowed down when compared to the uncontaminated cilia, and parts of the cells are covered in tar from the tobacco. For this lab it was hypothesized that smoking will inhibit the ciliary action and lower the quality filter the greater affect will be exhibited by the effected cilia. The prediction made was that cilia should beat fastest after being exposed to smoke that has passed through the charcoal filter, and slowest after being exposed to smoke that’s passed through the charcoal filter. To investigate the effects of cigarette smoke on human lungs a lit cigarette was placed in a hookah and smoke was drawn out and mixed with water. Mollusk gills were…
