Effects of Tonicity on Cell Membrane Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effects of tonicity on a cell membrane using red blood cells‚ potato strips and three unknown solutions (A‚ B‚ C). First three slides were prepared containing RBC’s and unknown solutions A‚ B and C. A control slide was prepared only using RBC’s. After observing each slide under the microscope it was determined that unknown solution A was hypertonic because the RBC appeared to have shrunk. The

Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability 1 EXERCISE 1 OBJECTIVES 1. To define the following terms: differential permeability‚ passive and active processes of transport‚ diffusion (simple diffusion‚ facilitated dif- fusion‚ and osmosis)‚ solute pump‚ pinocytosis‚ and phagocytosis. 2. To describe the processes that account for the movement of sub- stances across the plasma membrane‚ and to indicate the driving force for each. 3. To determine which way substances will move passively

Lab 4 – The Cell Answer Key Procedure 4.3 Draw a picture of a single Elodea cell and label all visible structures. See the diagram in your lab manual. Without staining‚ the only structures that should have been clearly visible should have been the cell walls and the green chloroplasts. Is this cell prokaryotic or eukaryotic? ______Eukaryotic_______________________ What evidence do you have to support this claim? The presence of organelles (chloroplasts) and its large size.

between animal and plant cells. Although plant and animal cells both have mitochondria‚ cytoplasm‚ and ribosomes they differ in many ways. Animal cells do not have a cell wall and are round with irregular shapes. Centrioles are also present in all animal cells‚ as well as most eukaryotic cells. Plant cells only have centrioles if they are in the lower plant species. Both types of cells have vacuoles‚ but their functions are quite different. The purpose of vacuoles in a plant cell is to store water and

was separated into four stages‚ the first being preparation of cell competency. In this stage two vials were placed in ice baths‚ one vial containing 50 µL of E. coli and the other containing a CaCl2 solution. 630 µL of the CaCl2 solution was then transferred to the E. coli vial‚ using a sterile pipet. After tapping the tube to mix the solution‚ it was then returned to the ice bath to continue incubation for at least 10 minutes. The cell competency preparation was carried out by the instructor in this

BILIARY TRACT Elevated frequency and function of regulatory T cells in patients with active chronic hepatitis C Kuo-Chih Tseng • Yun-Che Ho • Yu-Hsi Hsieh Ning-Sheng Lai • Zhi-Hong Wen • Chin Li • Shu-Fen Wu • Received: 20 June 2011 / Accepted: 11 January 2012 Ó Springer 2012 Abstract Background Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a pivotal role in the persistence of hepatitis C virus infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency and function of Tregs in patients with chronic hepatitis

Polymers have different structures. They also have different functions. Describe how the structures of different polymers relate to their function? Polymers a large molecules made up of a chain of smaller molecules‚ known as monomers. The monomers that a polymer is made up of decide its structure and therefore it’s function. These monomers are linked and coiled in a very specific manor giving the polymer a specific tertiary structure (an extensively coiled and linked polymer chain caused as a

Cells Cells Cell division and cancer Victoria Brothwell Strayer University Cells Introduction Regular cells and cancel cells are extremely different. Depending on the cancer that one may have cancer cells have more chromosomes that are scattered which is for why cancer cells are formed. In cell division all living things obtain cells in which come from other preexisting cells. If normal cells are do not divide and make new cells then cancer will occur. In order of all cells to be

Centromeres split and chromosomes move toward opposite sides of the cell occur during the anaphase. b. Chromatin coils to form visible chromosomes occur in the prophase. c. The nuclear membrane disappears occur in the prophase. d. Sister chromatids line up in the center of the cell occur in the metaphase. 2. In
