Midterm Essay How are bystanders portrayed in literature and film (use two examples)? Are they judged negatively or given a pass by the authors or directors? In the several films and books that we have reviewed up to this point in the class‚ we can see that there a many people had their own opinion concerning the Holocaust and the tragic events that took during that epic period in history. Once Hitler had achieved influential level of control over the government‚ no one could have predicted that

October 12‚ 2012 Diffusion and Osmosis Shown In Solutions Section 1: Abstract This lab‚ title Diffusion and Osmosis‚ was centered around the diffusion across a cellular membrane and how exactly materials move and diffuse in concentrations. Both diffusion and osmosis are forms of movement that are part of passive transport dealing with cell membranes. Diffusion is where the solutes move from an area of high concentration to a low concentration. Water goes through the cell membranes by diffusion. Osmosis is

Bystander Psychology: Why Some Witnesses to Crime Do Nothing In the article “Bystander Psychology” by Maia Szalavitz‚ the main idea was that people choose to stay out of situations‚ even ones involving crime and abuse‚ because of human nature. Research has been done regarding human psychology; people in a crowd would most likely avoid getting involved with the assumption that other people in that same crowd would jump in for them. This given mindset will make it so that the situation at hand does

One purpose of the experiment was to gain an understanding of diffusion and osmosis‚ specifically in context of a plant or animal cell reaction to an isotonic‚ hypotonic‚ or hypertonic solution. Another objective was to understand the nuances of simple diffusion‚ facilitated diffusion‚ and active transport and to explicate the characteristics affecting the rates of diffusion. The next objective was to be able to explicate the partition coefficient and its influence on hemolysis. The final objective

Lipids and Phospholipids The main role of phospholipids is that they can form lipid bilayers. It is an amphipathic molecule. The head which is hydrophilic contains a group of phosphate‚ a diglyceride and a simple molecule e.g. choline. The tail is hydrophobic and is made up of fatty acids. Phospholipids receive and transmit signals across the cell membrane and act as a store room for energy. The main role of phospholipids is that they can form lipid bilayers. It is an amphipathic molecule. The

The effect of size on the effectiveness of diffusion Aim: To use agar blocks infused with 0.1 Molar sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and phenolphthalein to investigate the relationship between shape and surface area: volume ratio on the effectiveness of diffusion. Hypothesis: That for a cube of agar‚ the time taken for complete colourisation due to diffusion of HCl is directly proportional to the cubes volume. Materials: |A block of agar (10cm x 5cm x 3cm) with 0.1M NaOH and |1x 250mL

above 3.2 million students are victims to bullying each year. Bullies are worse than bystanders. There could be many reasons students are bullied. One of the principle reasons is that the victim is weaker than the bully in any way. The reason someone might become a bully is because they either have something happening to them in their personal lives or they were bullied. Bullies are so much worse than bystanders because bullies cause their victims depression and might cause them to commit suicide

I believe that personally‚ I could explain the four steps of bystander intervention to my chapter‚ so they understand what to do under unwanted circumstances. The first step of bystander behavior is the person noticing the event happening. Second‚ the event must be interpreted as a real problem. When explaining this to my members‚ I think that the first two steps are self-explanatory

traded in Africa. The trans-Saharan trade routes were a vast trade network that reached across the continent‚ on which diverse goods and resources were traded‚ and knowledge‚ ideas‚ and religion spread in a phenomenon known as cultural diffusion. Cultural diffusion that occurred along the trans-Saharan trade routes shaped the development of culture in medieval Africa. The trans-Saharan trade routes provided African people access to goods and resources that were not local to their

Diffusion and Osmosis Lab Introduction • What molecules can pass through a semi-permeable membrane? In this lab study we tested carbohydrates such as starch and glucose‚ as well as solutions like Benedict’s and Lugol’s to see if they would cross the membrane of a cell but since we can’t actually see that happen we used dialysis tubing (acts as the cell membrane). • My prediction was that glucose and Benedict’s could pass the semi-permeable membrane but starch and Lugol’s wouldn’t be able to
