NAME: IZYAN NABILA BINTI AHMAD `AZAM CLASS: M13A DATE: 21.08.2013 TITLE: Transport across membrane OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effect of concentration of blackcurrant squash on osmosis in chipped potatoes. INTRODUCTION: In biology‚ osmosis is defined as the diffusion of solvent molecules (usually water molecules) across a semi-permeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration.

Chapter 4 Microscopes Two important factors in microscopy are: 1) Magnification: an increase in the object’s apparent size compared with its actual size. 2) Resolving Power: the ability of an optical instrument to show two objects are separate. Three types of microscopes: 1) Light Microscope (LM) M: 1000x RP 0‚2 micrometer (small bacterial cell) 2) Electron Microscope (EM) uses a beam of electrons to resolve electrons‚ better resolving powers than light microscope M:100‚000x RP 0

from the cell wall: they are said to be plasmolysed.” When plant cells are placed in a solution which has exactly the same osmotic strength as the cells they are in a state between turgidity and flaccidity. We call this incipient (about to be) plasmolysis. Although their cells are not plasmolysed‚ they are not turgid and so they do not hold the leaves up into the sunlight. (7) If red blood cells are placed in a solution with a lower solute concentration than is found in the cells‚ water moves into

Chapter 25 Pre-Test Question 1 Part A Miller and Urey’s experiments that attempted to recreate conditions on early Earth were significant because _____. Hint 1. They gave credence to the idea of abiotic synthesis. ANSWER: they showed how polymers could form spontaneously on a clay substrate they produced the first protocells they showed how radiometric dating could be used to give the absolute ages of rocks and fossils proved the endosymbiotic theory they showed that organic

Lab #1 ‐ Introduction to the Microscopy & Observation of Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells Introduction Many of the cells and organisms that you will be studying are at the lower limits of visibility of light microscopes; therefore‚ it is extremely important that you attain critical lighting and focussing. It is also important to handle the microscope competently to avoid damaging either the microscope or the preparation you are studying

Overview: Life at the Edge The plasma membrane separates the living cell from its nonliving surroundings. This thin barrier‚ 8 nm thick‚ controls traffic into and out of the cell. Like all biological membranes‚ the plasma membrane is selectively permeable‚ allowing some substances to cross more easily than others. Concept 7.1 Cellular membranes are fluid mosaics of lipids and proteins The main macromolecules in membranes are lipids and proteins‚ but carbohydrates are also important. The
