Investigating the Water Potential of a Potato. I have been asked to investigate the water potential of a potato. During my investigation I will not actually be able to measure a value for‚ as it is a pressure value (kPa). Osmosis is a special form of diffusion involving only water molecules. It is defined as "The passage of water from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential through a partially permeable membrane" Definition of Water Potential. The potential for water to move

Chapter 3 The Biological Bases of Behavior Communication in the Nervous System * Nervous Tissue: The Basic Hardware * Neurons are individual cells in the nervous system that receive‚ integrate‚ and transmit information. * The soma‚ or cell body‚ contains the cell nucleus and much of the chemical machinery common to most cells. * Dendrites are the parts of a neuron that are specialized to receive information. * The axon is a long‚ thin fiber that transmits signals

2. Considering the nervous system‚ please briefly explain how the electrically excitable membrane changes its electric potential. In other words‚ how is the cell membrane excited? At the surface of the cell membrane‚ there are three classes of gated channels exist‚ chemically gated or ligand-gated channels‚ voltage-gated channels‚ and mechanically gated channels. Originally‚ at the resting membrane potential‚ most of the gated channels are closed. However‚ when these gated channels open‚ the movement
