    The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effects of tonicity on a cell membrane using red blood cells, potato strips and three unknown solutions (A, B, C). First three slides were prepared containing RBC’s and unknown solutions A, B and C. A control slide was prepared only using RBC’s. After observing each slide under the microscope it was determined that unknown solution A was hypertonic because the RBC appeared to have shrunk. The RBC in unknown solution B appeared to be swollen, therefor, the tonicity of unknown solution B was hypotonic. Unknown solution C showed no change to the RBC shape, it was suggested that unknown solution C was isotonic. To confirm the tonicity of unknown solutions A, B and C, a potato strip was placed in 3 separate tubes containing each unknown solution. After each potato strip soaked for twenty minutes it was proven; unknown solution A was hypertonic due to the flaccidity of the potato strip. Unknown solution B proved to be hypotonic because the potato felt extremely rigid. Lastly, the potato strip soaking in unknown solution C was flexible which proved to be isotonic. From those results each unknown solution was established and allowing the determination of tonicity for unknown solutions A, B and C.…

    7. How does the cocaine get from the blood vessels in the nose to the brain? How does the cocaine get from the blood vessels in the lungs to the brain? Which route is most direct to the brain? Cocaine travels to the body by the capillaries, the drug travels in the oxygenated blood to the heart and then gets pumped throughout the body (organs such as brain, liver and kidneys that have a high blood flow receive blood first) to reach all cells. If you snort the cocaine it is the best route to direct to the brain.…

    The cell is the structural and functional unit of all known living organisms. It is the simplest unit of an organism that is classified as living, and is sometimes called the building block of life. Some organisms, such as bacteria are unicellular (consist of a single cell). Other organisms, such as humans, are multicellular. (Humans have an estimated 100 trillion cells; a typical cell size is 10 micrometers, a typical cell mass is 1 nanogram.) The largest known cell is an ostrich egg.…

    They account for the forces of attraction that bind molecules of a compound together. Intermolecular forces include dispersion forces, dipoledipole interactions and hydrogen bonding. Dispersion forces, the weakest among the three, are brought about by an instantaneous or induced polarization of molecules. They are also known as van der Waals forces or London forces of attraction.…

    In humans, mature red blood cells are flexible and oval biconcave disks. They lack a cell nucleus and most organelles, in order to accommodate maximum space for hemoglobin. Approximately 2.4 million new erythrocytes are produced per second in human adults.[2] The cells develop in the bone marrow and circulate for about 100–120 days in the body before their components are recycled by macrophages. Each circulation takes about 20 seconds. Approximately a quarter of the cells in the human body are red blood cells.[3][4]…
