13 THE MEMBRANES OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF CELLS ARE INVOLVED IN MANY DIFFERENT FUNCTIONS – 25 MARKS Membranes are found in all organisms‚ around and within cells. They control the movements in and out of cells‚ as well as protecting cells. They also allow different functions to occur. They have the same basic structure called the plasma membrane. All plasma membranes‚ around or inside cells have a same phospholipid bilayer structure. Phospholipids contribute to the flexibility of membranes and transfer

Lab 3 : Techniques in Microscopy Title : Preparation of light microscope observe cell organisms. Objective : To observe and investigate the cell structure under the light microscope. Introduction A microscope is an instrument used to magnify and resolve a specimen. It is important to know several important features of microscopy which involves magnification‚ resolution and contrast. Magnification is the enlargement of a specimen while resolution is the ability to distinguish detail or the

Diffusion and Osmosis Worksheet Diffusion is the movement of particles from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration. It is a natural‚ random process. This means that it does not require extra energy input. 1a. These are pictures of molecules frozen at two different times. Draw arrows to show the direction each particle might travel due to diffusion in diagrams A and B. A. B. Random arrows Random arrows 1b. Describe the way the particles

Wave Nature of Light Objective: The purpose of this lab is to investigate interference‚ otherwise known as the diffraction of light. A beam of light acts a wave‚ and we are able to use equations so calculate the wavelength of the light used. The diffraction of a straight edge demonstrates that light waves bend around straight edges‚ allowing light to enter an area of shadow. When waves are superposed‚ they reinforce each other when crests are in phase and cancel out when they are not in phase

simple mechanisms used to convert rotary motion into oscillating linear motion and vice-versa. The first of these is the slider-crank - a mechanism widely used in engines to convert the linear thrust of the pistons into useful rotary motion. In this lab we will measure the acceleration of the piston of a lawn mower engine at various speeds. The results exemplify a simple relation between speed and acceleration for kinematically restricted motions‚ which will discover. An adjustable slider-crank apparatus

Coulomb’s Law Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate that the force between two stationary charges is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely to the square of the distance between them. Coulomb’s law tells us that the force between two charges depends (1) linearly on the strength of each charge‚ and (2) inversely on the square of the distance between them. Mathematically we would write this as . Procedures Part1 Begin by removing the right side

Introduction Diffusion and osmosis are two types of passive transport. Diffusion is a random movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Osmosis is a type of diffusion that diffuses water through a selectively permeable membrane. There were two parts to the experiment‚ the dialysis tubing lab and the potato lab. In the first experiment‚ the dialysis tubing acted as a semi-permeable membrane. A semi-permeable membrane is a membrane that allows
