The effect of molecular weight on the diffusion rates of Potassium permanganate (KMnO4)‚ Potassium dichromate(K2Cr2O7) and Methylene Blue^1 _________________ Group 3 Sec. X-1L February 6‚ 2012 ____________________ ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the diffusion of substances were tested through the use of agar-water gel with three wells placed in a petri dish. Drops of three different substances namely: Potassium

(McMorris‚ 2007) (Agriculture‚ 2007) (Chung SY1‚ 2004) (Agriculture‚ 2007) (McMorris‚ 2007) In less than ten years‚ nut allergies in children have risen by three times to what it used to be in United States. These are the leading causes of dangerous allergies are causing harmful anaphylactic reactions that can lead to death. In 2008‚ a research team found that 1.4% of children had a peanut allergy; more than three times the 0.4% rate back in 1997.The research carried out in the year 2002 in the

Report on Receptor Proteins According to Abedon (2012)‚ receptor proteins are intracellular proteins‚ or protein fractions‚ that have a high specific affinity for binding a known stimulus to cellular activity. Receptor proteins may be located at cell surfaces or within the interior of cells. They may detect hormones or instead keep track of what otherwise is going on in cell ’s environment. They may be enzymes or serve to relay the occurrence of signal reception in other ways such as by opening

Title: Diffusion throughout the membranes Lab Partner(s): Alexis Clouting Date: 2/15/15 Abstract: In the content of the Module 2 we learned about Diffusion across cell membranes. We touched on the different types of cells and their functions. How things are transported in and out of cells. Learning about isotonic‚ hypertonic and even hypotonic solution. This is not my first time touching on this subject in my nursing career and I learned a way to remember what happens in the different solutions

1. Growth of the GDP: The annual growth of the Bulgarians’ GDP was around +2.1% in 2006 (Source: Eurostat) and the Romanian’s GDP’s growth is +4.1% (Source: Eurostat). The trend is an increase of the GDPs’ growth in this country since 2000 until 2006. After a devastating crisis in 1997‚ Bulgarians’ governments did a lot of reforms (trade liberalization‚ social reform‚ divestiture of state-owned companies‚…) in order to improve the productivity‚ the foreign and local investors confidence.

Transport or transportation is the movement of people‚ animals and goods from one location to another. Modes of transport include air‚rail‚ road‚ water‚ cable‚ pipeline‚ and space. The field can be divided into infrastructure‚ vehicles‚ and operations. Transport is important since it enables trade between people‚ which in turn establishes civilizations. Water transport: Water transport is the process of transport watercraft‚ such as a barge‚ boat‚ ship or sailboat over a body of water

in protein synthesis. In the past weeks‚ we were able to conclude that HL-60 cells treated with DMSO and HL-60 cells treated with PMA will differentiate into granulocytes and monocytes upon treatment (1). We were also able to observe that both types of treated cells will express the beta-actin gene because it is a housekeeping gene. However‚ only HL-60 cells treated with PMA will express the MMP-9 gene by their RNA. The purpose of this lab is to view the effects of differentiation on protein synthesis

A. Proteins- A protein is a naturally produced macromolecules that are made of carbon‚ hydrogen‚ oxygen‚ nitrogen‚ and chains of amino acids. The amino acids are building blocks for all our cells. Proteins main function is to help in tissue repair and growth. There are three different types of proteins. Fibrous proteins help in forming muscle tissues‚ tendons‚ bones‚ and connective tissue and some examples of these are Actin‚ Coronin‚ Elastin‚ and Myosin. Globular proteins help in regulating

Lab2: Testing for Proteins and Starches In this lab 8 total substances were tested to find out whether they are a Protein or a Starch. It is my belief that only 1 or two of each of the substances in test 1( proteins) and test 2 (starch) will test positive for either protein or starch. For this lab the following materials were needed to complete the experiments in test 1 for proteins: Di water‚ ev milk‚ 50% egg solution‚ 1% sucrose‚ 4 test tubes‚ 1 test tube rate‚ safety glasses‚ pipets and

Task 1 • Describe the structure of an enzyme as a protein‚ in terms of tertiary/ quaternary structures. 1) Primary Structure This is in reference to the order of way that amino acids are connected to form a protein. These are built up from 20 amino acids‚ and follow these structures o A carbon (the alpha carbon) bonded to the four groups below: o A hydrogen atom (H) o A Carboxyl group (-COOH) o An Amino group (-NH2) o A "variable" group or "R" group 2) Secondary Structure This is in reference
