time spent in each phase. Introduction: The cycle of a cell roughly doubles it volume of cytoplasm and duplicates its genetic information i.e. replicated DNA. Then it divides the genetic information equally into two daughter nuclei. The cell cycle can be divided into two phases interphase and mitotic phase. The time spent in these phases depends upon the type of cell and its particular developmental or physiological state. Cells comprising rapidly growing tissues‚ like those in the root tip

LAB Report #3 Introduction: In this lab we have focus on Isolation of bacteria from environment. Microorganisms are found throughout the environment: in the air and water; on the surface of any object such as clothes‚ walls‚ furniture; in soil and dust; and on and in our own bodies (skin and mucous membranes). In order to demonstrate the ubiquity and diversity of microbes in the environment‚ samples from immediate areas of the environment and/or from your body will be obtained and cultured

a plasma membrane. Discuss the role of the membrane in the movement of materials through it by each of the following processes: a. Active transport b. Passive transport The plasma membrane is a semi permeable barrier that separates the inside of the cell from the outside environment. The plasma membrane is made up of carbohydrates‚ cholesterol‚ proteins‚ and a lipid bilayer‚ or double layer of lipids. The plasma membrane may be known as a fluid mosaic model where the membrane is a fluid

Commercialising from the bottom up: Onions in central Tanzania Draft Copy By Khamaldin Mutabazi‚ Ntengua Mdoe & Steve Wiggins Key points: • With minimal assistance and direction‚ small farmers in central Tanzania have created thriving plots of irrigated onions‚ marketed in Dar‚ other parts of Tanzania and in the region. • Lack of formal credit has not prevented many farmers fertilising their crops heavily. Two villages have been able to overcome poor road access. • Informal marketing work well

Eukaryotic Cell Division Cells must continually grow and divide in order for an organism to grow‚ maintain its structure‚ and reproduce. Cell division involves the replication‚ or copying‚ of the complete set of hereditary information. It also involves the equal distribution of the genetic material in the resulting cells. The hereditary information of organisms is contained in large molecules called deoxyribonucleic acid‚ DNA. Objectives Upon completion of this laboratory

Introduction: Mitosis occurs in all eukaryotic cell tissues and produces genetically identical daughter cells with a complete set of chromosomes. In humans‚ mitosis produces somatic cells that are diploid‚ which means they contain two non-identical copies of each of the twenty-three chromosomes. One copy is derived from the person’s mother and the other from the person’s father. Meiosis‚ on the other hand‚ occurs only in testis and ovary tissues‚ producing sperm and ova (eggs). The gametes that
