DOLP- Fungi General Structure and Function: For many years‚ fungi were classified into the plantae kingdom because the two kingdoms seemed to be alike; but now‚ we know that they are all too different. In fact‚ the fungi kingdom is more closely related to the animalia kingdom. Some of the only notable similarities between the fungi and plantae kingdoms are that they are both made of eukaryotic cells‚ both immobile‚ both contain cell walls (although made of different material)‚ and both evolved

. Information transfer is fundamental to all living organisms. For the three following examples‚ explain in detail how the transfer of information is accomplished. a. The genetic material in one eukaryotic cell is copied and distributed to two daughter cells. Eukaryotic cells go through Interphase and Mitosis. Interphase is further subdivided into 3 stages‚ G1 (first gap)‚ S (synthesis of DNA)‚ and G2 (second gap). In all 3 sub phases cell growth happens and organelles like mitochondria are replicated

Observing Ecosystems Ecosystems-The sums of all the organisms living within its boundaries and all the abiotic factors with which they interact. Chemical Elements such as carbon and Nitrogen are cycled among abiotic and biotic components of the ecosystem. Photosynthetic organisms assimilate these elements in inorganic form from the air‚ soil‚ and water and incorporate them into their biomass‚ some of which is consumed by animals. Both energy and matter are transformed in ecosystems throught

Advanced Placement Biology ® AP Biology Lab 1 281 EDVO-Kit # Storage: Principles & Practice of Diffusion & Osmosis Store entire experiment at room temperature. EXPERIMENT OBJECTIVE The objective of this experiment is to develop an understanding of the molecular basis of diffusion and osmosis and its physiological importance. Students will analyze how solute size and concentration affect diffusion across semi-permeable membranes and how these processes affect water potential. Students

40) Describe the structure of a mammalian respiratory system. Include in your discussion the mechanisms of inspiration and expiration. In mammals‚ oxygen first passes through the nasal cavity. The nasal cavity is covered with mucus and cicilia to filter the air. The nasal cavity leads to the pharynx. The pharynx consists of the eustachian tube and the tonsils. The inhaled air then passes to the larynx‚ trachea‚ and bronchi. The bronchi lead to the bronchioles in the lungs. In the lungs the pleural

What were the goals of British imperial reformers? 3. Why did these conflicts over specific policies turn into a constitutional crisis? What were the core constitutional principles over which the colonists and the ministers in Parliament disagreed? 4. If Grenville’s and Townshend’s initiatives had been successful‚ how would the character of the British imperial system have changed? 5. Why did the leaders of the mainland colonies and of Britain fail to reach a political compromise to save the empire

-Get into the world of Fun! This handout is about population ecology‚ YEAH!!!- [Chapter 53 Handout] What is a population? Population: Group of individuals of the same specie living in the same general area. * Why is population ecology important? * Allows for monitoring of organisms impact on environment and also helps to regulate impact. * Helps to preserve populations of organisms. * Ecologists efforts have helped to preserve endangered animals such as the BALD EAGLE TOOLS

the aim and background information 2.1. Diffusion is the spontaneous kinetic movement by which molecules move from an area of a high concentration to an area of low concentration. Diffusion continues until it reaches equilibrium. Osmosis is similar to Diffusion but it’s the process in which water moves across a semi-permeable membrane and goes to the higher concentration of solute.1 2.2. Important factors to Osmosis and Diffusion include Temperature‚ Concentration and Surface area

of the cell. An important part of regulating this is passive transport. Passive transport is the movement of materials through membranes without any input of energy. One type of passive transport is diffusion. Passive transport is the diffusion of substances across a membrane. In diffusion‚ molecules will usually move from where the substance is more concentrated to where it is less concentrated. The molecules also tend to spread out in the space they enter just like food coloring in water
