without a microscope because they are so small‚ but they are in the air‚ on our skin‚ in our bodies‚ in the ground‚ and all throughout nature. Bacteria are single-celled microorganisms. Their cell structure is unique in that they don’t have a nucleus and most bacteria have cell walls similar to plant cells. They come in all sorts of shapes including rods‚ spirals‚ and spheres. Some bacteria can "swim" around using long tails called flagella. Others just hang out or glide along. Are bacteria dangerous

Management: Four Main Functions of Management There are four main functions of management; planning‚ organizing‚ leading‚ and controlling. All four functions have a significant role in the maintaining of efficient and effective management. Planning The first function of management is planning‚ which is the management function of systematically making decisions about the goals and activities that the overall organization will pursue‚ including making decisions for individuals and groups within

body‚ there are billions of cells that are essential to living – these are called nerve cells. Nerve cells‚ also known as neurons‚ “are the basic information processing structures” (Stufflebeam). There are about 100 billion of these neurons in our nervous system and are the most essential cell in it. Located in brain as well as the spinal‚ there are different types of nerve cells; including: sensory neurons‚ motor neurons‚ and interneuron (Boeree). The neuron is a cell that is structured similarly

The social class structure in the society is reproduced in many ways. One of the ways is through education. Many believes that the main function of education is not to educate the younger generation‚ instead is to replicate the social class structure one generation after the other. Certainly‚ many contrasting opinions have been expressed by different sociologists and explanations are made to justify their point of view. Marxists believe that education serves the needs of the economic base of

Aquaporins are "the plumbing system for cells‚" said Agre. Every cell is primarily water. "But the water doesn’t just sit in the cell‚ it moves through it in a very organized way. The process occurs rapidly in tissues that have these aquaporins or water channels." For many years‚ scientists assumed that water leaked through the cell membrane‚ and some water does. "But the very rapid movement of water through some cells was not explained by this theory‚" said Agre. Aquaporins selectively conduct

mammalian cells in aqueous surrounding because of the specialized underlying structures of these life-forms. In order for us to appreciate these special adaptation‚ we first need to know how a typical plant or an animal cell organelle behaves in different water and solute concentrations. In this lab‚ we will determine the effects of hypertonic‚ isotonic and hypotonic solutions on plant and animal cells. In general when an animals cell’s placed in hypertonic solution it shrivels; a plant cell on the
