potential difference in voltaic cell. Aim: To investigate the effect of concentration of electrolyte of the potential difference in voltaic cell. Introduction: Chemical reactions involving the transfer of electrons from one reactant to another are called oxidation-reduction reactions or redox reactions. In a redox reaction‚ two half-reactions occur; one reactant gives up electrons (undergoes oxidation) and another reactant gains electrons (undergoes reduction). Voltaic cell is a device in which a

GAIN MUSCLES. Introduction. The assignment topic touches on a very important part of the human body a muscle. This is a soft tissue found on most animals and is made of cells that contain protein filaments of actin and myosin that slide past one another‚ producing a contraction that changes both the length and the shape of the cell. It function to produce force there location on the body or according to the functions and roles they play. They are the cardiac muscles (muscles covering the heart)‚ the

The plasma or cell membrane exhibits ability for the cell to discriminate in its chemical exchanges with its environment and this makes cell membrane fundamental to life. This property can only be possible because of the cell membrane’s selective permeability (Campbell and Reece‚ 2002). The structure of the membrane can be best illustrated by the fluid mosaic model where the membrane is said to be a fluid structure with various proteins embedded in or attached to a bilayer of phospholipids (Campbell

13 THE MEMBRANES OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF CELLS ARE INVOLVED IN MANY DIFFERENT FUNCTIONS – 25 MARKS Membranes are found in all organisms‚ around and within cells. They control the movements in and out of cells‚ as well as protecting cells. They also allow different functions to occur. They have the same basic structure called the plasma membrane. All plasma membranes‚ around or inside cells have a same phospholipid bilayer structure. Phospholipids contribute to the flexibility of membranes and transfer

TRANSPORT IN MAMMALS Blood is a connective tissue and every connective tissue consists of cell‚ ground substance or matrix and fibres. For blood‚ it has cells‚ matrix in the form of plasma and fibres in the form of fibrin. In transportation‚ the surface area to the volume ratio of organisms contributes to the rate of movement of materials. For example in Hydra‚ and flat worms‚ the ratio is so high so simple diffusion can allow substances to reach all tissues easily. If the ratio is low‚ in mechanisms

The extreme temperatures of the water cooled to 0°C‚ and heated to 94-100°C will greatly damage the membranes. Extreme heat will be more damaging than extreme cold. The more concentrated the solvent‚ the more damage it will cause to the membranes‚ therefore the solvent

from a high concentration to low concentration. Diffusion is form of passive transport as energy does not need to be generated. Diffusion is complete when the concentration of molecules is equal on either side of the membrane. Diffusion rate can be influenced by many factors such as: Concentration gradient across the the membrane. Permeability of the membrane to the diffusing substance. Temperature. Surface area of the membrane. Question 2 2.1 Acetylcholine is an organic chemical that functions in the
