A mobile phone (also called mobile‚ cellular telephone‚ or cell phone) is an electronic device used for two-way radio telecommunication over a cellular network of base stations known as cell sites. Mobile phones differ from cordless telephones‚ which only offer telephone service within limited range through a single base station attached to a fixed land line‚ for example within a home or an office. Today‚ cell phones are the most popular tool for communication in modern life.

Plant cells are eukaryotic cells that differ in several key aspects from the cells of other eukaryotic organisms. Their distinctive features include: A large central vacuole‚ a water-filled volume enclosed by a membrane known as the tonoplast maintains the cell’s turgor‚ controls movement of molecules between the cytosol and sap‚ stores useful material and digests waste proteins and organelles. A cell wall composed of cellulose and hemicellulose‚ pectin and in many cases lignin‚ is secreted by

Cell Organelles Nucleus Its function is to control the cell’s activities and retain the chromosomes. The nucleus is bound by a double membrane‚ the nuclear envelope. The nuclear envelope has pores in it to allow the transport of mRNA. The cytoplasm like material is called nucleoplasm which contains chromatin (coils of DNA and histone proteins)‚ it is chromatin that condenses to form chromosomes during cell division. Within the nucleus is a small spherical body called the nucleolus which

Review Sheet Exercise 1 Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability Activity 1: Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) • Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion: Two variables that affect the rate of diffusion are size and concentration gradient. The molecular size vs the MWCO size of the membrane can either increase‚ decrease‚ or prevent diffusion. The greater the concentration gradient the greater the diffusion rate due to molecules moving from areas of higher concentration

Introduction: e-banking is defined as the automated delivery of new and traditional banking products and services directly to customers through electronic‚ interactive communication channels. E-banking includes the systems that enable financial institution customers‚ individuals or businesses‚ to access accounts‚ transact business‚ or obtain information on financial products and services through a public or private network‚ including the Internet. Customers access e-banking services using an intelligent

Cell Theory In biology‚ cell theory is a scientific theory that describes the properties of cells‚ the basic unit of structure in every living thing. The initial development of the theory‚ during the mid-17th century‚ was made possible by advances in microscopy; the study of cells is called cell biology. Cell theory states that new cells are formed from pre-existing cells‚ and that the cell is a fundamental unit of structure‚ function and organization in all living organisms. It is one of the

encodes proteins that are capable of deactivating or exporting the antibiotic (Liu‚ 2012). Over time the bacteria E. coli became resistant to the antibiotics‚ and once resistant then the medicine (penicillin) has no effect (Doughari 2012). The purpose of the experiment is to understand the processes by which genes can be inserted into plasmids‚ also to gain some experience in cloning genes via E. coli‚ lastly to understand the medicinal and other implications of gene transfer among organisms (Hoot‚ Wimpee
