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

Evolution of Sickle Cell Sickle Cell was discovered in the United states although it originated in Africa . The sickle cell disease (SCD) describes traits of an inherited red blood cell disorder‚ having SCD means you have abnormal hemoglobin‚ called hemoglobin S or sickle hemoglobin‚ in your red blood cells. What is hemoglobin u might ask?! Well Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that is suppose to carry oxygen throughout the body. But when a sickle cell trait is “Inherited” it could

the use of cell phones? According to scientific evidence cell phones may actually be more harmful than you think. I believe cell phones are dangerous to our health because they have been linked to causing tumors‚ can affect your eye health‚ and they also hold a lot of bacteria. Cell phones have more serious risks than they do benefits. Therefore it is better to limit how much you use your cell phone. It has been scientifically proven that you can actually get a tumor from the use of cell phones. These

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 cells contain its DNA within its nucleus‚ while prokaryotic cells keep it within the nucleoid. Prokaryotic cells are also more minute than the eukaryotic cells. Also although they both contain ribosomes‚ they are composed differently. 3. The central vacuole (takes in water and chemicals)‚ cell wall (allows the plant to be strong enough

Cell City Cell City A cell is like a city. They both have parts that play different roles. A cell is microscopic that has organelles‚ and a city has different services. Keeping them both running smoothly and orderly. As a result they both survive and grow. There’re a lot of different organelles in a cell that are similar to a city for example the cell membrane borders and protects the cell it’s role is letting certain things in and out of the cell in the same way a border in a city does.

address this question: “Propose a possible explanation on why the light caused depolarization of the off-center ganglion cell?” we first have to describe the structure of the center -surround in the receptive fields of retinal. In the receptive field‚ there are cone photoreceptors that communicate with On and Off center bipolar cell and finally On and Off center ganglion cells that carry the action potential to the cortex. When light comes to the retina (eyes) it causes closing of channels in the

the functional role of amacrine cells in retinal dynamics. In this thought paper I will argue that together with the bipolar and ganglion cells‚ the amacrine cells operate in a parametric system similar to the feedback and feedforward systems found in motor control. In order to determine the role of the amacrine cells they needed to determine the method of bipolar convergence and divergence in ganglion cells. When stimulated individually‚ two different bipolar cells were able to elicit distinct post
