Extended experimental investigation: effects on membranes of environmental stress Background It is not possible to observe membranes directly‚ so this investigation is an indirect study of the effects of different substances and treatments on living beetroot cells. Beetroot cells have been chosen for this activity because each beetroot cell has a large central vacuole bounded by a membrane (Figure 1). Contained in the vacuole is the red pigment anthocyanin‚ which gives the beetroot its

PATTERNS IN NATURE – Summary Notes 1. ORGANISMS ARE MADE OF CELLS THAT HAVE SIMILAR STRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTICS 1.1 Outline the historical development of the cell theory‚ in particular‚ the contributions of Robert Hooke and Robert Brown The Cell Theory states that: All living things are made of cells (Theodor Schwann & Matthias Schleiden) Cells are the basic structural and functional unit of organisms (Theodor Schwann) All cells come from pre-existing cells (Rudolf Virchow) The historical

Biology Lab Report 7 “Independent Assortment & Dihybrid Cross” 10-22-2013 Biology 202 Introduction: In genetics‚ when crossing a purebred white flower with a purple flower‚ we might expect its offspring to be a blend of both colors. Instead‚ we see that its offspring is purple as well. This is led to be by one trait being dominant over another trait. Gregor Mendel came up with a theory that each member of a pair of homologous chromosomes separates independently

Arrangement of Vascular Tissues in Flowering Plants • Xylem and phloem often are grouped together -> vascular bundle • Cambium -> lies in between xylem and phloem -> divide and differentiate -> form new xylem and phloem tissues -> thickening of stem Movement of Substances Into and Within Flowering Plants Entry of Water and Nutrients into Plants • Absorption of water -> root hairs -> grow into close contact with liquid around them • Thin film of liquid surrounding soil

Unit 5. Lab. New Building-Wired and Wireless If I choose to design the new building with a wired network the main benefit is there would be a low chance on interception. Choosing a wired network will also have a lower risk of security issues; reliability and speed are primary benefits as well when using physical connections in a wired network. The basis of the new building will relay on loads of data to be moveable that is why a wired network allows the control. Wired LANs provide superior performance
