selectively permeable membrane” (Lab Manual 2nd edition). It was hypothesized that osmosis will occur when there is an uneven distribution of solute in a solvent. The more abundant the solute is in solvent‚ the higher the rate of osmosis through the diffusion gradient forming a hypertonic or hypotonic solution. Solvent with equal or no solute forms an isotonic solution. Throughout this lab‚ data was collected and compiled to analyze these effects across selectively permeable membranes. The results indicated

BEETROOT PIGMENTS - and membranes – These pigments are betalain pigments (not‚ as often thought‚ anthocyanins)‚ which they replace in some organisms. They are named after the Beet family of plants (Beta) but are also found in fungi (Fly Agaric - the red‚ spotted one!). In petals they presumably attract pollinating insects and may be present in seeds/fruits to encourage birds to eat them and so disperse the seeds. Man has selected for colour in beetroot‚ both because

the cell membrane of the beetroot – concerning the proteins embedded in the phospholipid layer. The study will require the experiment of different temperatures of water and to find out which in temperature causes the most leakage of the pigment and why it does this. Introduction The study can contribute to biology as can tell us how the cell membrane structure works and the durability of the membrane. It can contribute to medical units to help us treat illnesses as the cell membrane is where

Muscle Tissue 1. How is muscle tissue categorized? Muscle tissue is categorized by its shape‚ the number of nuclei‚ and the mechanism of stimulation. 2. a. Click the Smooth Muscle Tissue. Identify each of the following: Nucleus----- Smooth Fiber Muscle------------------ b. Describe smooth muscle control (voluntary or involuntary). Involuntary c. Name some smooth muscle functions (click the “Tissue Locations” button). Smooth

What does conservation of energy mean? The principle that it is impossible to destroy or create energy. Matter can transform kinetic energy (energy of motion) to potential energy (stored energy) and vice versa. In all such energy transformations‚ total energy is conserved. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. What is potential energy? Stored energy‚ it’s energy that an object has because of its location or structure‚ such as the energy contained by water behind a dam or by a compressed spring

back to your set point. An example of this would be blood pressure or heart rate. Positive feedback loops effect the homeostatic condition by using amplification to increase the change and stimulus. For example‚ labor‚ platelate plugs‚ and action potentials are all positive feedbacks loops. 2. Describe the four physiological themes discussed in the book that apply to all living organisms.
