ABSTRACT The effect of different levels of radiation was determined using four set-ups-10kR‚ 30kR‚ 50 kR‚ and the control (no radiation). The four set-ups were observed for nine weeks and growth (in cm)‚ germination‚ and survival rate was measured. Results showed that at the right level of radiation level (10 kR)‚ radiation have a positive effect on the plant growth and has the same germination and survival rate from the control set up. The 30 kR set up and 50 kR set up are relatively smaller

Cell City Cell City A cell is like a city. They both have parts that play different roles. A cell is microscopic that has organelles‚ and a city has different services. Keeping them both running smoothly and orderly. As a result they both survive and grow. There’re a lot of different organelles in a cell that are similar to a city for example the cell membrane borders and protects the cell it’s role is letting certain things in and out of the cell in the same way a border in a city does.

allow cell phones to be sold without pre-market testing. The rationale‚ known as the “low power exclusion‚” distinguished cell phones from dangerous microwave ovens based on the amount of power used to push the microwaves. At that time‚ the only health effect seen from microwaves involved high power strong enough to heat human tissue. The pressure worked‚ and cell phones were exempted from any type of regulatory oversight‚ an exemption that continues today. An eager public grabbed up the cell phones

Introduction The current method of cell expansion using T25 flasks for human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have been proven to be extremely time and space consuming‚ labour intensive and difficult for scale-up (Minimal of 200 T25 flasks needed). It is estimated 2.8x108 - 5.6x108 undifferentiated hESCs are required by the end of the expansion stage for the process to work‚ as at least 5x107 cells of well differentiated post-mitotic Nrl+/Crx+ precursors are needed for transplant (Maclaren et al‚ 2006)

Activity 6.2-Membranes Organize a Cell’s Activity Dissect a Plasma Membrane Objective: to understand the structure of a membrane 1. Why is the membrane described as a phospholipid bilayer? It is described as a phospholipid bilayer because there are two layers of phospholipid molecules. 2. How does the arrangement of the phospholipids form a bilayer? The phospholipids arranged in two layers so that the charged phosphate heads interact with the water on either side of the membrane‚ and the

Cells‚ in a lot of ways‚ are like factories. All the parts of a cell work together to accomplish common goals‚ just like parts of a factory. Each part also has a specific function‚ to make getting the job done a lot easier. The floor of a factory is a lot like the cytoplasm in a cell. It kind of keeps everything where it needs to be‚ and helps direct organelles around the cell‚ much like the pathways on the floor around the machines. The cell membrane in a cell is very similar to the outside
