    CELL INJURY: CAUSES OF CELL INJURY‚ MECHANISMS OF REVERSIBLE AND IRREVERSIBLE CELL INJURY. CELL INJURY. Causes of cell injury range from gross mechanical external causes to mild endogenous causes as genetic lack of enzymes etc. Virtually all forms of tissue injuries start with molecular or structural alterations in cells. Under normal conditions‚ the cells are in: ❖ homeostastatic „steady“ state Normal cell is confined to relatively narrow range of functions and structure by

    Chemical Weapons Chemical weapons use the toxic properties of chemical substances rather than their explosive properties to produce physical or physiological effects on an enemy. Although instances of what might be styled as chemical weapons date to antiquity‚ much of the lore of chemical weapons as viewed today has its origins in World War I. During that conflict "gas" (actually an aerosol or vapor) was used effectively on numerous occasions by both sides to alter the outcome of battles. A significant

    determining the standard reduction potentials of different electrochemical half-cells through pairing it with Cu2+(0.1 M)|Cu half-cell and then comparing it with the theoretical value. Galvanic or voltaic cells contain the anodic and cathodic cell reactions‚ and in order to get the value of Ecell‚ we add both half-reactions. The more positive the Ecell‚the more negative ΔG would be‚ thus‚ giving us a spontaneous reaction. After comparing the cell potentials‚ formation constant of [Cu(NH3)4]2+ and

The molecular size vs the MWCO size of the membrane can either increase‚ decrease‚ or prevent diffusion. The greater the concentration gradient the greater the diffusion rate due to molecules moving from areas of higher concentration

    1.A) Two main forms of cells exist: eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells are smaller and do not have membrane-bound nucleus or membrane- bound organelles‚ but do have: plasma membrane‚ cytosol and cytoplasm‚ and ribosomes. Prokaryotes contain much less DNA than eukaryotes and have circular chromosomes. Eukaryotic cells have information processing organelles‚ such as the nucleus which houses most of the cell’s DNA‚ and ribosomes which use information from DNA to produce proteins

    is to determine the stress that various alcohols have on biological membranes. Membranes within cells are composed mainly of lipids and proteins and often serve to help maintain order within a cell by containing cellular materials. Different membranes have a variety of specific functions. One type of membrane-bound vacuole found in plant cells‚ the tonoplast‚ is quite large and usually contains water. In beet plants‚ this membrane-bound vacuole also contains a watersoluble red pigment‚ betacyanin
