selectively permeable membrane” (Lab Manual 2nd edition). It was hypothesized that osmosis will occur when there is an uneven distribution of solute in a solvent. The more abundant the solute is in solvent‚ the higher the rate of osmosis through the diffusion gradient forming a hypertonic or hypotonic solution. Solvent with equal or no solute forms an isotonic solution. Throughout this lab‚ data was collected and compiled to analyze these effects across selectively permeable membranes. The results indicated

BEETROOT PIGMENTS - and membranes – These pigments are betalain pigments (not‚ as often thought‚ anthocyanins)‚ which they replace in some organisms. They are named after the Beet family of plants (Beta) but are also found in fungi (Fly Agaric - the red‚ spotted one!). In petals they presumably attract pollinating insects and may be present in seeds/fruits to encourage birds to eat them and so disperse the seeds. Man has selected for colour in beetroot‚ both because

the cell membrane of the beetroot – concerning the proteins embedded in the phospholipid layer. The study will require the experiment of different temperatures of water and to find out which in temperature causes the most leakage of the pigment and why it does this. Introduction The study can contribute to biology as can tell us how the cell membrane structure works and the durability of the membrane. It can contribute to medical units to help us treat illnesses as the cell membrane is where

CELL STRUCTURE CELL THEORY: Structural and functional unit of all living things New cells arise from already existing cells Cells contain information that instructs growth. This information can be passed onto new cells. MICROSCOPES: There are two main types of microscopes: Light and Electron Electron Micrographs- shown in colour LIGHT ELECTRON Uses beam of light Magnification = x1500 Resolution = 200 nm Wide range of specimens can be used Samples are fairly quick + easy to prepare

concentration across a semi-permeable membrane. The purpose of this lab is to compare the three different types of solutions affect on the relative size of the vacuole to the cell‚ the outer membrane of onion red cells (tunics) are used to figure out the different types. In the red onion you can see effects promptly when the onion cells are placed in different type of solutions. The effect of the solutions is shown through the purple part within the membrane since that’s where the vacuoles are present

Elena Mesa Nov. 15‚ 2013 Ms. Lelacheur IB Biology HL The Effect of Temperature on Beet Root Membranes What is the affect of temperature on beetroot membranes? Hypothesis: It is hypothesized that as the temperature increases‚ the deeper red the beetroot water will be. At higher temperatures the proteins in the beetroot plasma membrane will denature‚ leaving holes in the membrane and allowing the red pigment in the cell sap to seep out into the water around it. Variables: Dependent-The

Brownian motion This is‚ presumably the random drifting of particles suspended in a fluid (a liquid or a gas) .This movement was discovered and later named after botanist Robert Brown (1773-1858). He was a Scottish botanist and palaeobotanist who made important contributions (including Brownian motion) to botany largely through his pioneering use of the microscope. The scientist who made Brownian motion famous is Albert Einstein‚ who brought the phenomenon to the attention of the larger physics community

vesicular transport 4. Circle the correct term. In pinocytosis / phagocytosis‚ parts of the plasma membrane and cytoplasm expand and flow around a relatively large or solid material and engulf it. 5. Circle the correct term. In active / passive processes‚ the cell provides energy in the form of ATP to power the transport process. Exercise Overview The molecular composition of the plasma membrane allows it to be selective about what passes through it. It allows nutrients and appropriate amounts
