Membrane Functions: Aim: To demonstrate the process of osmosis using a chicken’s egg Hypothesis: I predict that the egg’s mass after 10 min. in the 5% salt solution would increase due to and balancing out the solution. In the 10% salt solution‚ the egg’s mass would decrease since there is a high amount of salt. In the dilute water solution‚ the egg’s mass will increase‚ as the membrane would take in that water. Materials: 1- One fresh egg 2- One plastic spoon 3- One plastic fork

Chemicals in medicines Rakesh Mohan Hallen The words medicine’ and ’drug’ are often used in our country to mean the same substances: any substance‚ manufactured artificially‚ which can help recovery from sickness‚ relieve symptoms or modify a natural process in the body. A medicine is often a mixture of several chemical compounds. Even if it has only one active component compound often other substances are used as fillers or binders to give it bulk. Chemistry‚ the science related to chemical substances

The plasma membrane surrounds the cytoplasm of living cells‚ physically separating the intracellular components from the extracellular environment. It also plays a role in anchoring the cytoskeleton provide shape to the cell‚ and in attaching to the extracellular matrix and other cells to help group cells together to form tissues. The plasma membrane helps maintain homeostasis by diffusion and osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane. Diffusion is the process by which molecules

cell’s membrane structure suited to its functions? Throughout the past century‚ scientists have been able to conduct more research on the structure of a cell membrane and understand its components and functions. The present agreed on model‚ created in 1972 by S. J. Singer and G. Nicolson‚ is called the fluid mosaic model. This model depicts that proteins (integral and peripheral) form a mosaic since they are floating in a fluid layer of phospholipids‚ which makes up the components of the cell membrane

Cells are some of the smallest organisms around. All living things consist of cells‚ and yet they are invisible to the naked eye. Cells are the basic structural and functional units of life. Cells are made up of many different parts which allow them to function properly. All cells are separated from their surrounding by a cell membrane. The cell membrane regulates what enters and leaves the cell and also aids in the protection and support of the cell. A cell membrane

build up complex molecules from simple molecules‚ these two processes are catabolic reaction and anabolic reaction respectively. Enzymes are needed in these two processes to catalyse releasing and taking up ATP molecules. Different sequence of amino acid produces different structure of protein‚ which determines the property of protein‚ thus each kind of enzymes has its unique active site‚ which only fits to complementary – shaped substrate to form product. Because of the feature of active site

Abstract Chemical equilibrium occurs when a reversible reaction is happening forward and backward‚ at the same time by the same amount‚ is equal. Two procedures were made. First is the Effect of Concentration on Equilibrium. The solution became orange when it was diluted with ammonium hydroxide and the solution became yellow when water was added to the solution. In the second‚ Effect of Temperature on Equilibrium‚ the solution turned into a light brown gas when it was placed in the refrigerator

are important to understanding cell injury and cell death regardless of the injuring agent” (Heuther & McCance‚ 2012). Cellular injury arises when a cell is unable to sustain homeostasis. The injury can be reversed if the cell can recover from whatever damage was done but if it does not recover the cell will die. The three common forms of cell injury are hypoxic injury‚ free radicals and reactive oxygen species injury‚ and chemical injury. The most common form of cell injury is hypoxic injury‚ or
