    Planning Aim To determine how the surface area of the tablets affects the rate of the reaction. To determine which form of tablets gives the biggest surface area resulting in the fastest reaction rate. Investigation question: What is the relationship between the total surface area of the tablets and the rate of the reaction? Hypothesis: The rate of reaction will be the fastest when the tablets crushed into powder as there is a bigger total surface area resulting in more effective collisions

    eukaryotic organelles. ”A eukaryotic cell is sectioned by internal membranes into different functioning categories called organelles. For example‚ the nucleus houses DNA‚ the genetic component that controls the cells activities. (Boundless. “Introduction” Boundless Biology). The Cytoplasm is the material between the cell membrane and the nucleus. It has a lot of responsibilities within the cell. It contains enzymes for breaking down waste and also gives the cell its shape. The Nucleus or the brain

    temperature on cell membranes Independent variable: Temperature of beetroot Dependent variable: Absorbency of light Hypothesis: As temperature rises to its optimum temperature‚ the absorbency of light will increase because protein is an enzyme and will therefore be affected by temperature. This is because more beetroot dye will pass through the cell membrane and then into the distilled water. The deeper the colour of the beetroot dye‚ the higher the absorbency of light. Beetroot vacuoles have

    Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to determine how the surface area of CaCO3(s) affects the rate of reaction by measuring the volume of CO2(g) produced with time. Background: When solid reactants are mixed with liquid reactants only the particles on the surface of the solid will have direct contact‚ or collide‚ to the other liquid             reactant particles. When there is more surface area there will be more solid             particles exposed to collide

    When a beetroot cell is exposed to various kinds of temperatures‚ its plasma membrane is affected and may change in structure resulting in the leaking of betacyanin. If the temperature changes‚ then I would expect to observe that there would be a change in the concentration of betacyanin that has leaked from a beetroot cell. In specific‚ at high temperatures‚ the phospholipids that make up the plasma membrane of the beet root cell become progressively more destabilized causing them to transform into

    nerve cell maintains a difference in charge between the inside and the outside of the cell membrane. This difference in charge is continued by three factors. Firstly‚ in the cell membrane‚ there are sodium potassium ‘pumps’ crossing the membrane which are proteins that bring 2 potassium ions into the cell‚ for every 3 sodium ions it pumps out. As well as this‚ there are protein channels which allow potassium ions in the cell to flow out via facilitated diffusion. Potassium diffuses out the cell much

    Title Membrane Permeability Aim To determine the effect of various chemicals and high temperature on the membrane permeability of beetroot Hypothesis Organic solvent and high temperature will destroy the cell membrane and make it permeable to the red pigment. The higher the concentration of the alcohol‚ the greater will be this effect. Principle Beetroot is the material used in this experiment to demonstrate the effects of high temperature and chemicals on the permeability of the cell membranes

    on beet cell membranes Introduction: Cell membrane is the plasma like substance that separates different organelles and molecules within an organism. The cell membranes vital function is to permit passage of protein and enzymes through their wall. Red beets‚ also known as Beta Vulgaris has a red pigment that is located in its large central vacuoles. It is my hypothesis that if the cell membrane is to experience extreme temperatures‚ then it’s most likely it will affect the membrane. * I
