Aneka Khilnani September 8. 2012 Period 3 AP Biology Free Response Essay: Cell Size Life is defined as a distinctive characteristic that a living organism‚ dead organism or non-living thing‚ and it has the ability to grow‚ metabolize‚ respond to stimuli‚ adapt and reproduce. Cells are not smaller that 0.1 um because within the cell all the necessary components have to take place‚ cellular metabolism‚ reproduction‚ photosynthesis and there has to be a sufficient amount of space for that to

To randomize our data we had a sheet of random numbers that we used and we had four cases of replication‚ which went like this: • Rep 1: Bounty‚ School‚ Wal-Mart‚ Viva • Rep 2: Wal-Mart‚ Bounty‚ Viva‚ School • Rep 3: Viva‚ Wal-Mart‚ School‚ Bounty • Rep 4: School‚ Viva‚ Wal-Mart‚ Bounty Other materials we used besides the paper towels were: • A pipette • An iPhone stop-watch • And a three inch by two inch piece of each paper towel Results:

AP Biology Sunday‚ October 24‚ 2010 Enzyme Lab Write-Up Purpose: To observe how an enzyme affect the speed of chemical reaction. To describe how the concentration of an enzyme affects its ability to work. Hypothesis: Depending on the concentration of the catalase which the disk is soaked in‚ it will have a direct correlation on the rate of hydrogen peroxide being broken down into oxygen gas. Prediction: Since the rate of reaction can be lowered by the addition of

the functions of the main cell components of the body cell. The cell membrane : is something that lets some things in and some things out of the cell. It is an outer cover for the cell. If the cell membrane was non existences the cell would spill all over the place. Its function is to protect the integrity of the interior of the cell by allowing certain substances into the cell‚ while keeping other substances out. It is composed of a thin‚ double-layered sheet of lipids‚ around the Cell and is

development research | 1.) Tiny Genome- Therefore it is easy to study the genes and also to manipulate the genes.2.) Short Life Cycle- Experiments conducted on the A.thaliana will have observable results fast as the development of the plant is rapid.3.) Small size-can be cultivated in a tiny space and this is vital because research areas usually have space limitations.4.) Male and female sex organs available on the same flower- vital for plant genetic mating research | 1.) Pests- Pests are easily

Biology is a natural science concerned with the study of life and living organisms‚ including their structure‚ function‚ growth‚ evolution‚ distribution‚ and taxonomy.[1] Modern biology is a vast and eclectic field‚ composed of many branches and subdisciplines. However‚ despite the broad scope of biology‚ there are certain general and unifying concepts within it which govern all study and research‚ consolidating it into single‚ coherent field. Biology generally recognizes the cell as the basic unit
