Cells are a system that creates a product or proteins. To help gain a better understanding of the system of a cell and how it works‚ I will use the analogy “A cell is like an Airport.” The plant cell is the only cell that contains a cell wall. The cell wall’s job is similar to a security gate. The cell wall provides an extra layer of support and protection for the cell‚ just like a security gate would protect the airport. Next‚ the cell membranes job is the same as the airports front doors. The front

Analysis: The graph of oxygen uptake vs time taken to run 1.5 miles has a negative linear association. As oxygen uptake increases‚ the time taken to run 1.5 miles decreases. This is can be seen through the gradient which has a value of 0.1705. This means that as the oxygen uptake increases by 1 ml/kg the amount of time taken to run 1.5 miles tends to decrease by approximately 1.7 minutes. The graph has a moderate relationship because the data is scattered in a wide band along the line of best fit

The cell is the fundamental structural unit of all living organisms. Some cells are complete organisms‚ such as the unicellular bacteria and protozoa; others‚ such as nerve‚ liver‚ and muscle cells‚ are specialized components of multi-cellular organisms. Cells range in size from the smallest bacteria-like mycoplasmas‚ which are 0.1 micrometer in diameter‚ to the egg yolks of ostriches‚ which are about 8 cm (about 3 in) in diameter. Although they may differ widely in appearance and function‚ all cells

Introduction: An oxygen sensor‚ or lambda sensor‚ is an electronic device that measures the proportion of oxygen (O2) in the gas or liquid being analyzed. It was developed by Robert Bosch GmbH during the late 1960s under supervision by Dr. Günter Bauman. The original sensing element is made with a thimble-shaped zirconia ceramic coated on both the exhaust and reference sides with a thin layer of platinum and comes in both heated and unheated forms. The most common application is to measure the

Sickle cell anemia was first discovered in the year of 1910. A young man by the name Walter Clement Noel from the island of Grenada‚ studied in Chicago. He went to Dr. James B. Herrick‚ whom was a cardiologist‚ with symptoms of anemia‚ who assigned Dr. Ernest Irons to the case. There Dr. Irons noticed that Noel’s red blood cells were the shape of a sickle. Although sickle cell anemia has occurred in Africa for thousands of years‚ Dr. Herrick was the first to provide a formal description of sickle

antibiotics. For this reason‚ it is important to test and observe unknown organisms in the lab to continually improve the health and well being of society. The objective of this report was to first isolate a single colony of an unknown culture on a LB agar plate. From here‚ a slant was made and used for multiple types of testing in order to determine the identity of the unknown organism. The tests performed to identify the unknown organism included Gram Staining‚ Fluid thioglycollate/aero-tolerance test

Ever wonder how evolution comes to be? How some species win and others lose? Evolution has many different ways of making organisms all better‚ faster‚ and more adept to live. Four big categories of the mechanisms of evolution are natural selection‚ gene flow‚ genetic drift‚ and mutations. The majority of the time‚ nature goes by a trial and error system that can take up many centuries to come up with a change that is beneficial. Natural selection is the process in which nature removes its mistakes
