BIO 131 Lab #2 Drawings of Animal and Plant Cells Instructions: 1. Set up light microscope for use. Handle with care. 2. Obtain a slide of animal cells and observe first under low-power (4X)‚ then under medium power (10X)‚ then finally switch to high-power (40X). 3. Make careful observations of the structure of the cells. 4. Draw what you see under high power on a sheet of paper. Place your drawing in a circle measuring 10-15 cm. Use only pencil‚ draw neat lines‚ do not shade. The title

STEM CELL THERAPY: Renewal of skin among Filipinos ages 40 above THESIS STATEMENT Stem cells have recently become a huge buzzword in the skincare world. But what does it really mean to use stem cells in skin care? Stem cells have the remarkable potential to develop into many different cell types in the body. When a stem cell divides‚ it can remain a stem cell or become another type of cell with a more specialized function‚ such as a skin cell. . STATEMENT

Examination of Onion Epidermal Cells Requirements: Iodine solution HARMFUL Onion Distilled Water Apparatus: Microscope Microscope slides & cover slips Tile Knife Tweezers Pasteur Pipettes Assignment: I was given the onion once it had been chopped up on the tile‚ ready for me to peel back the skin I required using the tweezers. I then placed piece of onionskin onto the microscope slide‚ making sure there were no folds or creases‚ and put a drop of iodine onto the slide

Cell Membrane Transport The purposes for these experiments is to be able to understand osmosis and its relationship to tonicity of solutions‚ and the transportation of molecules across cell membranes. It’s also used to understand‚ and how temperature affects diffusion. You also learn how to test for presences of starches and sugars in solutions. In the first exercise I will be testing for diffusion through an artificial membranes. This one has forty five steps to it. I will not go into

Ligia Ramos 11th Grade HL Biology – Ms. Bartels Due Monday October 21st Limitations on Cell Size Research Question: What is the correlation between surface-to-volume ration and ion exchange and how does this relate to cells? Evaluation of Method and Results: Errors/ Limitations: | Suggestions for improvement: | Impact on Results: | Precision - Human error –cutting cubes freely‚ resulting in very different sized cubes‚ especially for the 1cm x 1cm x 1 cm cubes. All the cubes also had slightly

Cell division in animals: mitosis‚ cytokinesis‚ and the cell cycle. Cell division in animals is a two-step process involving mitosis and cytokinesis and is set up by interphase. Interphase is a growth period for the cell. In the nucleus the chromosomes are duplicated but are not yet distinguishable because they are still a form of chromatin. There is also a nucleoli‚ one or more‚ present producing ribosomes that are sent to the cytoplasm. Mitosis is the division of the nucleus and multiplication

this essay I will include information regarding: cell differentiation‚ the functions of various cell organelles‚ tissues and a comparison of different tissue types. Cellular differentiation is the process by which a less specialised cell becomes a more specialised cell type. Differentiation happens a number of times during the development of a multicellular organism as the organism changes from a fertilised egg cell to a complex system of tissues and cell types. Differentiation dramatically changes

Stem cells are an undifferentiated cell of a multicellular organism that is capable of giving rise to indefinitely more cells of the same type‚ and from which certain other kinds of cell arise by differentiation. The body is not able to produce new neurons to repair spinal cords injuries‚ such as those that cause paralysis. Because of this‚ there is no way for doctors to restore movement to paralyzed people. Stem cells may be the perfect solution to that problem. Researchers have found that implants

pluripotent stem (IPS) cells differ from those currently in place for human embryonic stem (ES) cells. An IPS cell is created artificially from skin‚ fat and fibroblasts by reprogramming patient ’s own cells. Scientists believe IPS cells to be a promising source for treating diseases. An ES cell is created by destroying an embryo. Other scientists think ES cells will also be a promising source because it is composed of your own DNA‚ so the immune system won ’t reject the cell. While scientists would

Cell Membrane The Cell Membrane- The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell; the cell membrane is made up of phospholipids‚ proteins and carbohydrates. Its function is to protect the integrity of the interior of the cell allowing certain substances into the cell‚ while keeping other substances out. The phospholipids form a thin‚ flexible sheet while the proteins float in the phospholipid sheet like an ice berg‚ and the carbohydrates extend out from the
