    Experiment 2 The Cell Membrane Abstract The boundary between any cell and its environment is the plasma membrane‚ composed of a matrix of phospholipid molecules along with a number of different kinds of proteins. Membranes have different properties and a variety of functions‚ in large part determined by the specific proteins within the membrane. This experiment is designed to determine the stress that various factors‚ such as osmotic balance‚ detergents and pH‚ have on biological membranes. There are

    Investigate the effect of temperature on amylase activity Introduction Amylase is an enzyme that catalyses the breakdown of starch into sugars. Amylases are found in almost all plants‚ animals and microorganisms. Large amounts of amylase occur in germinating cereals‚ and in the pancreas and saliva of higher animals. Aim The aim of this experiment is to find out the rate of reaction between amylase and starch in a range of different reaction temperatures. Hypothesis As the reaction

    Cell Membrane Transport The purposes for these experiments is to be able to understand osmosis and its relationship to tonicity of solutions‚ and the transportation of molecules across cell membranes. It’s also used to understand‚ and how temperature affects diffusion. You also learn how to test for presences of starches and sugars in solutions. In the first exercise I will be testing for diffusion through an artificial membranes. This one has forty five steps to it. I will not go into

    CELL TRANSPORT MECHANISMS AND PERMEABILITY Zack Johnson Human Anatomy & Physiology Lab 2101 Instructor: Alan Byboth‚ M.S. 10/4/12 Abstract- The cell is invaluable building block of all biological life on this planet‚ and one of its most important and unique characteristics is its ability to be selectively permeable with its plasma membrane. This outer membrane’s sophisticated mechanisms of transport through its bilayer are vital in maintaining homeostasis in the cell and the entire

    century‚ little was known about cell membranes. Until the early 1950s‚ the biological cell membrane was rarely mentioned in scientific literature. It was recognised that something was probably there‚ but hardly anything about it was known. Considering the lack of technical equipment available a century ago‚ scientists such as Charles Overton and Edwin Gorter were not only exploring new territory in looking at the properties of cell membranes‚ but laying the way for future cell biologists. Scientists had

    impact of the temperature on every sample will stay the same‚ i.e. if having a bigger beetroot sample less pigments will be released into the test tube at lower temperature‚ or having a smaller beetroot sample more pigment will be released into the test tube. This error will change the results of the experiment at large. Therefore it is important to insure the sample sizes are the same. Temperature: As temperature will affect the beetroot cell membrane‚ I will keep the temperature constant throughout
