Commercial Cells Galvanic Cell A Galvanic cell is also known as a Voltaic cell. It was named after Luigi Galvani and Alessandro Volta. A galvanic cell is capable of producing an electric current from a redox reaction that occurs within it and consists of two half cells. Each half cell consists of an electrode and electrolyte and a salt bridge. In a galvanic cell one metal can undergo reduction and the other oxidation. A typical galvanic cell is based on the spontaneous redox reaction: Net Ionic

2. Draw and completely label a cell membrane. [pic] 4. List and briefly discuss the 5 components of cellular membranes. 1. Phospholipids layer- 2 layers ‚ polar and non polar ‚ polar facing the extracellular fluid and cytoplasm 2. Transmembrane proteins-integral membrane proteins are proteins that expand the membrane 3. Interior protein network-peripheral proteins are in the interior side of the membrane 4. Cell surface markers are glycolipids‚ carbohydrates/lipid

Eukaryotic & Prokaryotic Cells Introduction: The Cell: The cell is a functional unit of all living organisms. Cells have evolved into two fundamentally different types‚ eukaryotic and prokaryotic‚ which can be distinguished on the basis of their structure and the complexity of their organization. The simplest organisms which consist of one cell are called prokaryotes. More complex organisms are called eukaryotes and they consist of many cells. Objectives: * Define the terms: Eukaryotes

oxidized and thus causes reduction ELECTROCHEMISTRY INVOLVES TWO MAIN TYPES OF PROCESSES: A. Galvanic (voltaic) cells – which are spontaneous chemical reactions (battery) B. Electrolytic cells – which are non-spontaneous and require external e− source (DC power source) C. BOTH of these fit into the category entitled Electrochemical cells GALVANIC CELLS Parts of the voltaic or galvanic cell: o Anode--the electrode where oxidation occurs. After a period of time‚ the anode may appear to become smaller

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

Brain of the Cell The nucleus is literally a membrane-bound organelle and is surrounded by a double membrane. I feel that the nucleus is of the greatest importance in the cell because it is the control center that oversees the metabolic functioning of the cell and it directs all the cells activities. The nucleus is like the head of the cell and without a head the rest of the body is useless. It is the largest organelle and within the nucleus is the DNA responsible for providing the cell with its unique

develop a manufacturing cell? Support your answer with examples. Cellular manufacturing is a manufacturing process that produces families of parts within a single line or cell of machines operated by machinists who work only within the line or cell. A cell is a small scale‚ clearly-stated production unit within a larger factory. This unit has full responsibility for producing a family of like parts or a product. All necessary machines and manpower are enclosed within this cell‚ thus giving it a level

Cells and Movement of Substances All living things are formed by cells‚ the structure of these cells varying depending on their function. Animal and plant cells have common features such as a nucleus‚ cytoplasm and cell membrane. Dissolved substances pass into and out of cells by diffusion Diffusion Diffusion definition: Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration. Dissolved

higher concentration (vinegar)‚ to an area of lower concentration (the egg). 4. Consider how lettuce or spinach placed in water becomes firm and crisp. Use what you have learned about cell membranes to explain this observation. Lettuce and spinach become firm and crisp when placed in water because the cells absorb the water‚ and in turn makes the lettuce/spinach bloated with water. 5. If you were to continue this experiment by removing the egg from the water and covering it in syrup‚ what
