CYCLES IN BIOLOGY This essay will give examples of cycles in biology from different scales of magnification‚ ranging from molecular level to populations and ecosystems. Cycles are sequences of events which repeat themselves in the same order‚ one event leading to the next. There are many examples of these in Biology. Cycles can be seen even at a molecular level in the body. An example of this would include the passage of action potentials down neurones in the nervous system. When the cell membrane

The Rise of the Superbugs A Superbug is a bacterium that can live in the human body and has the ability to withstand all forms of antibiotic medication. Superbugs are becoming increasingly significant in modern medicine as they are becoming more and more resistant to antibiotics. Antibiotics were discovered in 1928 by Alexander Fleming (Walsh and McManus‚ 2000). This resulted in a huge movement forward in medical history and even greatened human life expectancy. Since then antibiotics have been

Beetroot Cells with High temperatures and low pH solutions Friday 15th March 2013 Abstract (50) The aim of this investigation was to study the effects of temperature and a low pH solution on beetroot cells. Introduction (200) The general belief amongst our group members was: an increase in temperature will damage the permeability of the plasma membrane. Also‚ the heat will break away the permeability. If the pH solution is 7 or greater there will be no change but the lower the pH the more proteins
