6.1.1 Explain why digestion of large food molecules is essential. There are two reasons why the digestion of large food molecules is vital. Firstly‚ the food we eat is made up of many compounds made by other organisms which are not all suitable for human tissues and therefore these have to be broken down and reassembled so that our bodies can use them. Secondly‚ the food molecules have to be small enough to be absorbed by the villi in the intestine through diffusion‚ facilitated diffusion or active

http://thegrabup.com/?p=811 Significance Of Osmosis (700-1200) Osmosis is a process of movement of solvent through a semi permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration to equalize the concentration of solute to both side of the membrane. . Water is sometimes called "the perfect solvent‚" and living tissue (for example‚ a human being’s cell walls) is the best example of a semipermeable membrane. Osmosis process as demonstrated below shows that when

Respiration & metabolism Photosynthesis: the process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. Respiration: the release of energy from food and it takes place in animal and plant cells. Combustion: the process in which a substance reacts with oxygen to give heat and light. 5.2.2.

Name: Siti Nur Amalina binti Mohamad Sukri Class: M12E Title: Cell Respiration and Aquatic Animal Aim: To investigate the effect of a change in the temperature of water on the respiration rate of a goldfish. Research question: Does a change in temperature of water affect the respiration rate of a goldfish? Introduction: “The goldfish is a domesticated subspecies of a carp like fish called Carassius auratus. Goldfish are usually kept as pets‚ feeding on fish food‚ algae‚ plankton and other

Why are some colors of light more effective than other colors? Answer Photosynthetic saturation is the maximum rate of photosynthesis. What was the value for photosynthetic saturation in tomato leaves? Answer Light quality does not effect the rate of photosynthesis. Answer Based on what you know about photosynthesis‚ provide possible reasons for what causes photosynthetic saturation (these cannot be determined from the graph). Answer Which color

7/30/2015 Assignment [ print page ] Assignment Background Information: Scientists have found that almost all living organisms have a gene that codes for a protein called Cytochrome C. This protein is important in releasing energy from food. Scientists study similarities such as the gene that codes for Cytochrome C in hopes to learn more about the universal genetic code and the relationship between living organisms on Earth. Procedure: The charts below lists a portion of the amino acids found in
