TUTORIAL 1 BASIC MOLECULES OF CELLS I Student’s Guide: At university level‚ the tutor facilitates student learning without spoon-feeding. Therefore‚ you are expected to: • Read your textbook‚ attempt the questions before the tutorial • You may enter the class and sign your attendance after showing your tutor that all tutorial questions have been completed; even if you don’t know how to do‚ write something - you’re not advised to leave answers blank in the finals. • Write answers

Structural Isomers • molecules with the same molecular formula but with different arrangements of atoms • differences in the shape of isomers lead to differences in their physical & chemical properties • For example‚ galactose‚ glucose and fructose have the same molecular formula (C₆H₁₂O₆) but different structures (figure 6 page 30) • glucose itself has 3 different structural isomers in dry state‚ glucose has a linear structure‚ but when dissolved in water‚ the molecules fold on itself

Evaluate the impact of care in the community for adults with Mental Health problems. Care in the community is where a patient is no longer detained nor sectioned within a hospital institution. However‚ there must be at least three practitioners agreeing that it is necessary for the patient to be released into the community. Adults who may suffer from mental health problems can ask to be cared for within the community. Patients and their families are now more educated with a sense of empowerment

The Scientific Study of Life Mastering Concepts: 1. What characteristics distinguish the living from the nonliving? The characteristics that distinguish the living from the nonliving are that nonliving things reproduce and grow‚ use energy‚ have levels of organization‚ maintain constant internal conditions‚ and evolve. 2. List the levels of life’s organizational hierarchy from smallest to largest‚ starting with atoms and ending with the biosphere. Atoms‚ molecules‚ organelles‚ cells

Why a Bill of Rights and What Impact Does it Have? All have heard the saying‚ “Great minds think alike.” When many great minds of the colonies gathered to create a new government‚ two rarely thought exactly alike. The Bill of Rights was created through the kind of debate and exchange of ideas that it protects to this day. The Declaration of Independence states the purpose of government is to protect our basic human rights. This was one principle that all the Founders did agree on. But if

Experiment 8.1 Yes there was a change because with the starting snail population there was a great variation from 1-7. After the crab began eating only the snails with the thickest shells survived. The snails with the thinnest shells were eaten by the crab. Only snails with shell thickness 4-7 were left after the crab had their meal. The original snails with thickness 1-3 were eliminated from the population by the crab. The crab will usually try to expend as little enrgy as it can to maximaize its

Discuss the chain of events that led to the discovery of DNA as the heritable substance and the discovery of the structure of DNA. Ans> The chain of events led to the discovery of DNA as the heritable substance and the discovery of the structure of DNA. In the late nineteenth century‚ a German biochemist Friedrich Miescher found the nucleic acids which are long-chain polymers of nucleotides‚ and are made up of sugar‚ phosphoric acid‚ and several nitrogen-containing bases. Later it was found
