OF MAMMALIAN CELLS AND THE DIFFERING FUNCTIONS OF THESE COMPARTMENTS? Mammalian cells are eukaryotic this means that all of their cells have common components‚ membrane bound organelles which prokaryotic cells do not this is shown in figure 1. Organelles are purpose made to carry out a specific function that is necessary within a cell. Due to the specificity of both conditions and concentrations with in these organelles these are compartmentalized. Encasing the organelle in a membrane allows is to

Biological Membranes: A simulation Introduction Diffusion is the process by which collisions between molecules cause to spread apart. This movement is described as movement from an area of greater concentration to an area of lower concentration. Hence‚ diffusion continues until the molecules are equally distributed. This is to ensure that molecules have reached a state of equilibrium. Diffusion occurs spontaneously‚ no energy is involved. In cells‚ Diffusion occurs through cell membrane which is

Children‚ Cell Phones‚ and Possible Side Effects There are possible health risks that go along with allowing a child to use a cell phone. This subject has been debated for years. Many researchers and health care professionals have done studies and given their opinions about it. Although cell phone companies do not opening warn you when you purchase a cell phone‚ I take the advice of risk very seriously. Being a mom‚ I found the following information very helpful when deciding that a cell phone

Dark Tech: The Effect of the Cell Phone on Health Today’s technologies are advancing at such an astonishing rate. This can make it difficult for even the most avid “techie” to keep pace. Technology is that wonderful thing that brings comfort and convenience to our lives. But‚ with that comfort and convenience‚ there often comes a price; and the technology of the cell phone proves no exception. Arguably‚ as a communication tool‚ the cell phone has no equal in how it has changed and affected

(Tzahi 2006) To demonstrate osmosis lab‚ artificial cells were made with various sucrose concentrations and were placed into beakers of different sucrose solutions. Overall the results showed that the higher percentage of concentration gradient of sucrose‚ the more the artificial cells absorbed. Introduction: The phenomenon being investigated in the lab was how the concentration gradient

temperature such as cold/hot would have on the diffusion rate? Answer: The rate of diffusion of molecules depends on how soluble they are. The rate of diffusion depends on the size of the molecule in general‚ small molecules would pass through a membrane faster than larger molecules. As temperatures increase‚ molecular movement increases. As the movement increases‚ so will the diffusion rate as the molecules spread faster and faster. The opposite would be true of colder temperatures. 3. Considering
