    How is a 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

    An experiment to investigate the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction of the Enzyme Trypsin. Aim: This investigation was on the effect temperature has on the rate that the enzyme trypsin hydrolyses its substrate‚ a protein found in milk (casein). This investigation was conducted under controlled conditions‚ the temperature being the changeable variable. Trypsin and its substrate (powdered milk which is a source of the protein casein) were heated in a water bath. The contents of the two

    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

    internal temperature so that the body processes can take place efficiently. The process ensures an equilibrium system is attained for all the body processes. The body temperature of an average individual is 37˚ C. this temperature fluctuates depending on activities one does. A human being is in constant movement unless they are asleep. As such‚ the temperature may increase or decrease thereby varying from this average. Some of the factors that may lead to increase in the body temperature include digestion

    Goldfish and Water Temperature Goldfish and Water Temperature The subject of my observation is a goldfish that is kept in a 2 gallon fishbowl positioned on a window side table. I have noticed that the goldfish is more active in the earlier morning and later evening than during the afternoon hours. Because the table is near a window that faces northeast‚ the fishbowl receives direct sunlight during the time between eleven o’clock a.m. and four o’clock p.m. The goldfish activity decreases around
