    Cells must move materials through membranes and throughout cytoplasm in order to maintain homoeostasis. The movement is regulated because cellular membranes‚ including the plasma and organelle membranes‚ are selectively permeable[1]. The purpose of an automatic flow of molecules is to create equilibrium on each side of the membrane. In order for molecules to pass through the membranes‚ there must be pores. The size of the pore determines what molecules can cross. Due to the size and polarity‚ only

    three main parts of a cell. plasma membrane-forms a cell’s flexible outer surface‚ separating the cell’s internal environment (inside the cell) from its external environment (outside the cell) cytoplasm- consists of all the cellular contents between the plasma membrane and the nucleus.  nucleus- is the largest organelle of a cell. The nucleus acts as the control center for a cell because it contains the genes‚ which control cellular structure and most cellular activities The cell is the basic‚ living

    potential of potato tuber cells. Background knowledge Osmosis is defined as the movement of water molecules from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential through a partially permeable membrane. Osmosis is considered in terms of water potential and solute potential. Water potential is a measure of the kinetic energy of water molecules. Here‚ water molecules are constantly moving in a random fashion. Some of them collides with cell membranecell wall‚ creating a pressure

    Biology – Assignment One Cells. Question One Explain the roles of the main components and features of a cell to the cell function. A typical animal cell is rounded in shape‚ surrounded by a cell membrane. This holds in the cytoplasm‚ which contains other structures such as the nucleus‚ ribosomes‚ and mitochondria. Each cell has tiny structures inside called organelles; each type of organelle performs a particular function. For example there are mitochondria (power stations)‚ ribosomes (protein

    Fundamental of Cell Biology A cell is the basic unit of life‚ and all organisms are made up of one or many cells. One of the things that all cells have in common is a plasma membrane‚ it is also called as cell membrane as it is works as a barrier between the inner and outer surface of a cell. In animal cells‚ the plasma membrane is present in the outer most layer of the cell and in plant cell it is present just beneath the cell wall. It separates the contents of the cell from its outside environment

    Beetroot Membranes _Aim_ This practical will test the effect of temperature on the integrity of the membranes‚ _Introduction_ The cells of beetroot contain a pigment called betalain in their vacuoles. It is kept inside the cells by the membranes. If these membranes are damaged‚ then the betalain leaks out. The amount that leaks out can be assessed‚ as the leaked out pigment will color the water surrounding the cells. This information can be used to find out how temperature affects cell membranes
