Microorganisms: * Small living organisms; there are 3 types * Bacteria – ecoli‚ salmonella * Fungi – mushrooms‚ athletes foot * Virus – influenza (flu)‚ HIV * When they enter our body‚ they multiply and release toxins / harmful chemicals into our blood * They duplicate every 20 minutes * Physical barriers: eyelashes prevent MO’s from entering through our eyes‚ nasal hairs reduce them‚ skin is a barrier to them (although they can enter through cuts)‚ chemicals in tears

The human brain doesn’t only grow physically‚ it also grows by learning. The biology of learning is very interesting and taught me what learning really is like what is does‚ when it is done‚ and how it can be done better. The brain can learn to multi-task‚ to learn better by sleeping‚ and to understand information by what type of learner we are. This essay will tell you how the brain works and some other things you need to know about learning. In the essay “The Biology of Learning”‚ Stephen Londe

Michelle Gordon‚ TJ (Group 4) Section 33 Yeast Cell Respiration 10/04/2010 Part B: Explanation of Results All cells carry out the process of cell respiration in order to meet their energy needs. It is advantageous for cells to have the ability to metabolize different substrates. In this experiment‚ we investigated each sugar’s (glucose‚ lactose‚ sucrose‚ fructose‚ and lactose/lactaid) cell respiration rate. When referring to my group’s graph and data‚ glucose ended up with the highest

Title: Grass Growth Effect Jessica Suarez Option A: Observation: During the winter‚ you spread salt daily on your driveway to melt the snow. In the springtime‚ when the lawn begins to grow‚ you notice that there is no grass growing for about 3 inches from the driveway. Furthermore‚ the grass seems to be growing more slowly up to about 1 foot from the driveway. Question: Might grass growth be inhibited by salt? My hypothesis is that the grass growth in being inhibited by salt. A typical

• Chapter 7 o Online questions • The fluid mosaic model is now generally accepted for the description of all biological membranes • Transmembrane segments of membrane proteins anchor membrane proteins in the lipid bilayer. • A ganglioside is not a phospholipid. • Thin-layer chromatography separates lipids based on hydrophobicity. • Unsaturated fatty acids have double bonds and increased membrane fluidity. • Cholesterol increases fluidity at low temperatures and decreases fluidity at high temperatures

After months of research and experiments‚ I have concluded my discovery of space worm touch receptors is definite. Regardless of the type‚ sensory receptors are influenced by physical actions and various stimulus. My research and experiments show that space worm touch receptors are no different. Stimulus is a change discernible by the body (Sherwood 2004) or in my case‚ a space worm. Certain receptors like touch receptors respond to stimulus weakly or strongly when involved with a different stimulus
