fundamentals of science. Title An investigation of an onion cell using a light microscope. Aim: The aim of this investigation is to identify the cells within an onion skin using a light microscope. An onion cell is a plant cell which through the light microscope‚ it should outline the cell wall‚ cell membrane and the nucleus. Introduction: Plant cells have a cell wall and cell membrane which animal cells do not have. The cell wall provides support and is relatively rigid‚ which consists of

advantages of road transport in comparison to other modes of transport. 1. Less capital quality:- Road transport required much less capital investment as compared to other modes of transport such as railways and air transport. 2. Door to door services: - The outstanding advantage of road transport is that it provides door to door or warehouse to warehouse services. 8. Saving in packing cost: - As compared to other modes of transport‚ the process of packing in motor transport is less complicated

for the description of all biological membranes • Transmembrane segments of membrane proteins anchor membrane proteins in the lipid bilayer. • A ganglioside is not a phospholipid. • Thin-layer chromatography separates lipids based on hydrophobicity. • Unsaturated fatty acids have double bonds and increased membrane fluidity. • Cholesterol increases fluidity at low temperatures and decreases fluidity at high temperatures. • Ankyrin is a peripheral membrane protein found in erythrocytes. Therefore

Traffic Congestion Traffic congestion is a condition on road networks that occurs as use increases‚ and is characterized by slower speeds‚ longer trip times‚ and increased vehicular queuing. The most common example is the physical use of roads by vehicles. When the traffic demand is great enough that the interaction between vehicles slows the speed of the traffic stream‚ this will results in some congestion. As demand approaches the capacity of a road (or of the intersections along the road)‚

Cell Structure - Cell Organelles 1. What is cell theory? Cell theory asserts that the cell is the constituent unit of living beings. Before the discovery of the cell‚ it was not recognized that living beings were made of building blocks like cells. The cell theory is one of the basic theories of Biology. 2. Are there living beings without cells? Viruses are considered the only living beings that do not have cells. Viruses are constituted by genetic material (DNA or RNA) enwrapped by a protein

Site Plan | I. Neurons/nerve cells A neuron is a cell specialized to conduct electrochemical impulses called nerve impulses or action potentials. Neuron is the main cellular component of the nervous system‚ a specialized type of cell that integrates electrochemical activity of the other neurons that are connected to it and that propagates that integrated activity to other neurons. They are the basic information processing structures in the CNS.

Procedure 2: DNA Extraction from Cheek Cells Materials: Water‚ Clear Dish Soap‚ Table Salt‚ Isopropyl Alcohol (70%) or Ethanol‚ Food Coloring 1. To 200 Ml drinking water add two teaspoons of salt 2. Gargle the salt water for 1 minute. 3. Spit the gargled water into a beaker (or new cup). Now your cheek cells are suspended in the salt water. 4. Gently stir the salt water with one drop of soap (try to avoid air bubbles) 5. In a separate beaker (or cup)‚ mix 20 ml isopropyl alcohol and 1-3 drops

Activity 6.2-Membranes Organize a Cell’s Activity Dissect a Plasma Membrane Objective: to understand the structure of a membrane 1. Why is the membrane described as a phospholipid bilayer? It is described as a phospholipid bilayer because there are two layers of phospholipid molecules. 2. How does the arrangement of the phospholipids form a bilayer? The phospholipids arranged in two layers so that the charged phosphate heads interact with the water on either side of the membrane‚ and the

Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells are organized into complex structures by internal membranes and a cytoskeleton. The most characteristic membrane bound structure is the nucleus. This feature gives them their name‚ (also spelled "eucaryote‚") which comes from the Greek word referring to the nucleus. Animals‚ plants‚ fungi‚ and protists are eukaryotes. Microorganisms and all other living organisms are classified as prokaryotes or eukaryotes. Prokaryotes and eukaryotes are distinguished on the
