Date Performed: June 29‚ 2012 Farrah Belle Barredo Experiment 2 The Cell Membrane Abstract The boundary between any cell and its environment is the plasma membrane‚ composed of a matrix of phospholipid molecules along with a number of different kinds of proteins. Membranes have different properties and a variety of functions‚ in large part determined by the specific proteins within the membrane. This experiment is designed to determine the stress that various factors‚ such as osmotic

purpose of this lab was to study the specific characteristics of cations and anions‚ and ultimately to be able to identify an unknown substance based on our studies and tests using the logic trees developed through the experiment. A logic tree is a graphical display of the findings from this lab which‚ through a series of yes/no questions‚ elimination tests‚ will help us to identify and unknown sample. This lab will result in 2 logic trees‚ one for identifying cations and the other

Heredity variation: Variation observed among the individuals of the same species due to difference in their genetic constitution is termed as heredity variation. 2. Environmental variation: Two individuals with the same genotype may become different in phenotype when they come into contact with different conditions of food

The nucleolus (plural nucleoli) is a non-membrane bound structure. Composed of proteins and nucleic acids found within the nucleus. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is transcribed and assembled within the nucleolus. Three major components of the nucleolus are recognized: the fibrillar centers (FC)‚ the dense fibrillar components (DFC)‚ and granular components (GC). The DFC consists of newly transcribed rRNA bound to ribosomal proteins‚ while the GC‚ contains rRNA bound to ribosomal proteins that are beginning

Microbiology Lab Quiz #2 Study Guide Exercise 9 -- The Gram Stain Compare and contrast simple and differential staining techniques. Simple Staining Simple staining is useful in determining the basic morphology of an organism. Simple staining involves only one reagent i.e. crystal violet‚ basic fuchsin‚ or methylene blue. Simple dyes used to stain bacteria have a positive charge cationic (+)‚ therefore‚ they are attracted to the bacteria that are usually negatively charged anionic (-) Depends

In this lab 8 total substances were tested to find out whether they are a Protein or a Starch. It is my belief that only 1 or two of each of the substances in test 1( proteins) and test 2 (starch) will test positive for either protein or starch. For this lab the following materials were needed to complete the experiments in test 1 for proteins: Di water‚ ev milk‚ 50% egg solution‚ 1% sucrose‚ 4 test tubes‚ 1 test tube rate‚ safety glasses‚ pipets and the reagent solution. For test 2 for starches

Chapter 2 Integrin Structure and Function Manakan Betsy Srichai and Roy Zent Abstract Integrins are a large family of heterodimeric glycoprotein receptors first discovered over twenty years ago. They exist as two noncovalently bound a- and b- subunits that function as adhesion molecules and play key roles in many biological processes including actin cytoskeleton organization and transduction of intracellular signals regulating cellular functions. Integrins bind a variety of extracellular matrices
