oxidized and thus causes reduction ELECTROCHEMISTRY INVOLVES TWO MAIN TYPES OF PROCESSES: A. Galvanic (voltaic) cells – which are spontaneous chemical reactions (battery) B. Electrolytic cells – which are non-spontaneous and require external e− source (DC power source) C. BOTH of these fit into the category entitled Electrochemical cells GALVANIC CELLS Parts of the voltaic or galvanic cell: o Anode--the electrode where oxidation occurs. After a period of time‚ the anode may appear to become smaller

Every so often‚ new stem cell guidelines will change base on new bills present for consideration. Stem cell research laws are derived from President views. Stem cell research is so controversial

light microscope when you want to see the cell in the act of moving or dividing. 2. Prokaryotic cells don’t have organelles like eukaryotic cells do. Eukaryotic cells contain its DNA within its nucleus‚ while prokaryotic cells keep it within the nucleoid. Prokaryotic cells are also more minute than the eukaryotic cells. Also although they both contain ribosomes‚ they are composed differently. 3. The central vacuole (takes in water and chemicals)‚ cell wall (allows the plant to be strong enough

Research Paper on Human Cloning Introduction: The possibility of human cloning‚ raised when Scottish scientists at Roslin Institute created the much-celebrated sheep "Dolly"‚ aroused worldwide interest and concern because of its scientific and ethical implications. The feat‚ cited by Science magazine as the breakthrough of 1997‚ also generated uncertainty over the meaning of "cloning" --an umbrella term traditionally used by scientists to describe different processes for duplicating biological

Cell City Cell City A cell is like a city. They both have parts that play different roles. A cell is microscopic that has organelles‚ and a city has different services. Keeping them both running smoothly and orderly. As a result they both survive and grow. There’re a lot of different organelles in a cell that are similar to a city for example the cell membrane borders and protects the cell it’s role is letting certain things in and out of the cell in the same way a border in a city does.

Students should have the abilty to use their cell phones in school because you will never know what will happen to you or your child. There can be any type of an emergency such as earthquakes‚ a crime scene‚ or a fire. Students should be able to use cell phones in school because how about if someone was going to get hurt and didnt have a way to get help or find help

address this question: “Propose a possible explanation on why the light caused depolarization of the off-center ganglion cell?” we first have to describe the structure of the center -surround in the receptive fields of retinal. In the receptive field‚ there are cone photoreceptors that communicate with On and Off center bipolar cell and finally On and Off center ganglion cells that carry the action potential to the cortex. When light comes to the retina (eyes) it causes closing of channels in the

the functional role of amacrine cells in retinal dynamics. In this thought paper I will argue that together with the bipolar and ganglion cells‚ the amacrine cells operate in a parametric system similar to the feedback and feedforward systems found in motor control. In order to determine the role of the amacrine cells they needed to determine the method of bipolar convergence and divergence in ganglion cells. When stimulated individually‚ two different bipolar cells were able to elicit distinct post

develop a manufacturing cell? Support your answer with examples. Cellular manufacturing is a manufacturing process that produces families of parts within a single line or cell of machines operated by machinists who work only within the line or cell. A cell is a small scale‚ clearly-stated production unit within a larger factory. This unit has full responsibility for producing a family of like parts or a product. All necessary machines and manpower are enclosed within this cell‚ thus giving it a level
