This resulted in a boom of popular magazines and a strong market

SPECIALIZED CELL ANIMAL Sperm cells PLANT Xylem cells are specialised to find a female cell (egg cells) and join with it. They have tails‚ that makes them move in water to find and fertilize the female cell. They can move because they have many mitochondria located between the tail and the head‚ which gives them energy. In the head‚ there is a vacuole filled with acrosome‚ which is a specialized Lysosome that releases enzymes in order for the Sperm Cell to break into the Egg Cell‚ through the

Plant cells are eukaryotic cells that differ in several key aspects from the cells of other eukaryotic organisms. Their distinctive features include: A large central vacuole‚ a water-filled volume enclosed by a membrane known as the tonoplast maintains the cell’s turgor‚ controls movement of molecules between the cytosol and sap‚ stores useful material and digests waste proteins and organelles. A cell wall composed of cellulose and hemicellulose‚ pectin and in many cases lignin‚ is secreted by

Experiment title: Preparation of Biological Materials for Microscopic Examination Objectives: 1. To learn how to use a microscope. 2. To study the cell structure of starch grains‚ onion cells and cheek cells. 3. To differentiate the difference between starch grains‚ onion cells and cheek cells. Introduction: Microscope is an optical instrument use to magnify micro objects that hardly or impossible to be observed by naked eyes‚ so that the objects can be studied. Compound light microscope

The cell wall is the tough‚ flexible but sometimes fairly rigid layer that surrounds some types of cells. It is located outside the cell membrane and provides these cells with structural support and protection. Just as the wall of the factory is for the factory. The wall also is the structure and strength. The cell membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outside The cell membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and controls the movement of substances

Cell Organelles Nucleus Its function is to control the cell’s activities and retain the chromosomes. The nucleus is bound by a double membrane‚ the nuclear envelope. The nuclear envelope has pores in it to allow the transport of mRNA. The cytoplasm like material is called nucleoplasm which contains chromatin (coils of DNA and histone proteins)‚ it is chromatin that condenses to form chromosomes during cell division. Within the nucleus is a small spherical body called the nucleolus which

1. INTRODUCTION A solar cell is a device that converts the energy of sunlight directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect. Sometimes the term solar cell is reserved for devices intended specifically to capture energy from sunlight‚ while the term photovoltaic cell is used when the light source is unspecified.”Photovoltaics” the field of technology and research related to the application of solar cells in producing electricity for practical use.
