movement across the plasma membrane of living cells is continuous and sustains the cells. Beetroot is a vegetable that contains a rich source of potent antioxidants and nutrients which is important for cardiovascular health. Betacyanin‚ a red pigment‚ can be obtained in the vacuole of beet root cells‚ and is commonly used industrially as red food colourants or ink. In exploring the permeability of a beetroot membrane which contains a coloured

Put simply‚ photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. Photosynthesis comes from the Greek language and literally means “Light Composition” or “Putting Together Light.” Photosynthesis generally takes place in plants‚ however it also takes place in algae and many species of bacteria. In photosynthesis‚ light energy is converted to chemical energy and the chemical energy is then stored in the form of glucose‚ or sugar. Carbon

higher than the kingdom category.” A. The three-domain system allows for the conclusion that the previous five kingdoms were more connected than was believed. Out of the five previous kingdoms: Animalia‚ Plantae‚ Protista‚ Fungi‚ and Monera‚ four of the five kingdoms were placed in the same domain- Eukarya. The one remaining kingdom was separated into two domains- Bacteria and Archaea. This separation was unusual as it was previously thought that Bacteria and Archaea were closely related‚ as

Separation of Plant Pigments from Tomato Paste ABSTRACT In column chromatography a mixture is dissolved in a solvent and poured over a column of solid adsorbent then eluted with the same or a different solvent. This method is often used for preparative purposes; when a relatively large amount of the mixture and the components need to be isolated. The two main pigments in tomato paste mixture are the yellow-orange β-carotene and the red lycopene. The colors of these pigments are because

7/30/2015 Assignment [ print page ] Assignment Background Information: Scientists have found that almost all living organisms have a gene that codes for a protein called Cytochrome C. This protein is important in releasing energy from food. Scientists study similarities such as the gene that codes for Cytochrome C in hopes to learn more about the universal genetic code and the relationship between living organisms on Earth. Procedure: The charts below lists a portion of the amino acids found in
