Damage of Beet Cell Membranes Caused by Different Temperatures Resulting in Betacyanin Leakage By: Trevor Sandum‚ Lab 2‚ March 9‚ 2013 Introduction: A red pigment called Betacyanin located in the vacuole of the beet cells is released when the membrane is damaged (Danyk‚ 2013). The membrane is necessary for sustainability of the cell’s life‚ it separates the cell from the outside environment‚ and is responsible for diffusion‚ exocytosis and endocytosis‚ and transport. It

The Effect of Solvent Exposure and Temperature on Beet Cell Membrane Integrity Introduction: • Cell membranes are vital to proper cellular function • Cell membranes consist of a lipid bilayer made up of phospholipids • Phospholipids are amphipathic molecules meaning they have a dual nature in that they show both hydrophilic (water-loving) and hydrophobic (water-fearing) properties • The amphipathic nature of phospholipids causes them to spontaneously form bilayers in water

The Effect of Molecular Weight on the Rate of Diffusion of Potassium permanganate (KMNO4)‚ Potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) and Methylene blue ¹ ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was determined using the Agar-water Gel Test. One drop of potassium permanganate (KMNO4)‚ potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) and methylene blue were used. Each substance has a respective molecular weight of 158 g/mol‚ 294g/mol and 374 g/mol. The diameters (in millimeter) were measured

results. My hypothesis was ‘as the surface-area-to-volume ratio decreases the diffusion rate increases’ my results support my hypothesis‚ because in my table of results when the surface area to volume ratio is at 14 the diffusion time is 38 seconds‚ then the ratio goes down to 9‚ and the time increases to 90 seconds. My graph also supports my hypothesis‚ because the curve on my graph slopes down which shows as the diffusion time increases the ratio decreases. One of my results that could possibly have

environmentally friendly manner. Although fuel cells were invented one and a half centuries ago‚ only recently has it become feasible for them to compete with existing energy production systems. Among the various types of fuel cells‚ proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells promise to become a viable power source for transportation as well as a distributed power source for residential uses because of their low operating temperatures and high power density. PEM fuel cells also promise to become an alternative

Introduction The movement of molecules from an area of greater concentration to an area of less concentration is called Diffusion. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane from an area with greater concentration of water to an area with less concentration. A Hypertonic Solution is a solution of a higher concentration of solutes and a smaller concentration of water molecules than another solution. However‚ an Isotonic Solution is a solution that contains an equal
