1. Living organisms play an important role in the recycling of many elements within an ecosystem. One such way this idea can be proven is through the study of carbon in an ecosystem. Plants‚ for starters‚ are a major part of this carbon cycle. During photosynthesis‚ plants remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen as a waste product. Another major contributor to this vital cycle is the human being. The average human being goes through respiration each day to help maintain

Extended experimental investigation: effects on membranes of environmental stress Background It is not possible to observe membranes directly‚ so this investigation is an indirect study of the effects of different substances and treatments on living beetroot cells. Beetroot cells have been chosen for this activity because each beetroot cell has a large central vacuole bounded by a membrane (Figure 1). Contained in the vacuole is the red pigment anthocyanin‚ which gives the beetroot its

concentration gradient and the distance so having a smaller distance for the gases to travel increases the rate at which gas exchange can occur. A thick membrane would mean a slower rate if diffusion because the gases have to travel further. In this essay I will discuss the diversity in structure and function of gas exchange systems of three animal groups‚ Insects‚ fish and mammals. I will also discuss how these gas exchange systems have allowed each animal group to be successful in their environment
