elements are contained in a molecule of Tetrodatoxin? What are the names of these elements? There are four different elements and they are 11 carbon‚ 17 hydrogen‚ 3 nitrogen and 8 oxygen. 3. What types of chemical bonds are found in this molecule? Describe the structure of those bonds. The chemical bonds found are covalent bonds‚ which are bonds that share electrons. 4. As mentioned in the case description‚ tetrodotoxin is a molecule that blocks voltage-gated sodium ion channels. Describe the structure

Computer Simulation of Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability: Passive Processes and Active Processes Introduction In this lab we will establish a difference between the two types of cell transport mechanisms and their permeability. The first type of cell transport is passive processes which are driven by concentration or pressure differences in the interior and exterior of the cell. The second type is active processes which use energy known as ATP to power the transport. There are two

stress that various alcohols have on biological membranes. Using five solutions of differing alcohol concentration for each of the three alcohols; methanol‚ ethanol‚ and 1-propanol and a small slice of beet‚ the stirred solution was placed into a plastic cuvette and then into a spectrophotometer and the absorbance of alcohol solutions were determined in order to conclude which alcohol and concentration of alcohol had the greatest effect on biological membranes. The results showed that the most non-polar

1a. Two reasons that the mass of the bag levels off with time include (1) equilibrium and (2) hydrostatic pressure. Equilibrium refers to the concentrations becoming equal. If there is no longer a higher concentration and lower concentration between the water and sucrose‚ osmosis can no longer take place. Osmosis can only occur when water is traveling from a higher concentrated area to a lower concentrated area. Hydrostatic pressure occurs when the bag reaches maximum capacity. Water will enter the
