B1: The permeability of the cell increases enormously during the action potential. Comte Whitney Electricity is vital for neural function and communication. The semi-permeable membrane and presence of charged particles in solution (ions)‚ enables the cell to have control of an electric potential. The cell The concentrations of Na+ and K+ ions upon either side of a cell’s membrane are not equal. In order for the equilibrium to be restored‚ sodium will attempt to enter the cell‚ whilst potassium will

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

AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE DETECTING SYSTEM Author: NETAJI.PANIGRAHI B.Tech e.mail:netajipanigrahi@gmail.com 1 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION The Automatic Temperature Detecting System is an embedded system application which has the capability of detecting temperature of the environment. The behavior of the system is based on sensor. Based on sensing information the microcontroller will respond. This system works on 5V power supply. Here Microcontroller plays a major role which takes inputs from sensor

RESULTS 28⁰C was the optimal temperature. 28⁰C had the maximum rate of reaction for the class data and results provided by this experiment; the results were represented graphically in graph 1 and graph 2. The reason for having 2 tables and graphs is because 28⁰C was done twice. Data for 28⁰C was collected in this experiment and it was collected again by peers in the classroom. Results are identical because all temperatures except 28⁰C was collected once from peers. Based on the results from the

Temperature and enzyme activity Aim: To determine the effect of which the temperature of the enzyme has on the rate of the enzyme catalysed reaction. Hypothesis: The rate of reaction of an enzyme catalysed reaction will increase as the temperature of the enzyme approaches the optimum temperature. Surpassing the optimum temperature will result in a drop in enzyme activity. Materials: 6% hydrogen peroxide Liver suspension 10 test tubes 4 beakers Thermometers Measuring cylinders Test

the 200mL beaker started with an average temperature of 43.5oC it then gradually fell to 41oC after 45 seconds‚ then rapidly decreased in temperature by 2oC every 15 seconds. At the 90 second period it decreased by 4oC from 35.5oC to 31.5oC it then steadied out falling by 1oC per 15 seconds until the 120 second stop mark. For the 500mL beaker the temperature difference between the 15 second intervals were very different being more gradual with the temperature on average falling from 1 – 1.25oC per

Purpose Thermoregulation is the ability of an organism to keep its body temperature within certain boundaries‚ even when the surrounding temperature varies and is of higher or lower temperature than what is normal. The purpose of thermoregulation is to balance thermal inputs and thermal losses in the body so as to maintain a relatively constant core temperature of approximately 36.7 degrees celsius. If this was unable to take place the body may not be able to functions properly and it could result
