Lab Report #1 Facilitated diffusion By: Kelsey Clark Biology 2401 C1L Dr. Fanini October 2‚ 2017 Facilitated Diffusion Facilitated Diffusion is a type of passive transport that allows for lipid insoluble molecules or molecules that are too large to pass through a membrane. The molecules are able to pass through by binding with protein carrier molecules and moving down the concentration gradient. The rate of diffusion will continue to increase until the carrier proteins are saturated

plasma membrane of a cell is extremely important to the transportation of substances into and out of the cell. The outer membrane of a cell is made up of lipids and proteins. Most of the lipids in plasma membranes are phospholipids. The phospholipids have a hydrophilic head and two hydrophobic tails. When engulfed in water‚ they arrange themselves such that all the hydrophobic tails clump together‚ surrounded by the hydrophilic heads‚ protecting the tails from the exposure to the water. In cells‚ which

Our main goal was to test organisms’ resistance and susceptibility to bacteria‚ and whether the cell wall of bacteria exposed the membrane to pathogen or protect it from pathogens. I thought P. aeruginosa was gram-positive and therefore it would be susceptible. That was my hypothesis.We divided antiseptic agar plate into quadrants and divided antibiotics agar plate into six areas. We wrote the organisms’ name‚ date‚ and the temperature on the bottom of the agar plates. For antiseptic‚ our group used

The purpose of this lab was to observe the rate of osmosis and diffusion‚ as well as the effect of molecular size of the particles on this rate. Part I of the lab was a demonstration of osmosis and diffusion‚ that dealt with raisins in different liquid environments‚ each with a different concentration of sugar. Part IV of the lab was using the same idea as the demonstration‚ by putting objects in different concentrations of a substance; in this case elodea leaves in salt water. In both cases‚ the

1. OBJECTIVES (a) To determine the equivalent circuit parameters of a 3-phase squirrel-cage induction motor from laboratory test data. (b) To determine the performance characteristics of an induction motor under load conditions. (c) To control the no-load speed of an induction motor. 2. INTRODUCTION 2.1 Three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors An induction motor is a transformer with a rotating secondary winding. It has two essential components: an outer stationary stator and an

EXPERIMENT 1: TITLE: ISOMERISM AND KINETICS IN COORDINATION CHEMISTRY OBJECTIVE: 1. To prepare and study the kinetics of the interconversion of some of the isomers of a typical coordination compound. INTRODUCTION: Isomerism played a central role to establish the basic concept in coordination chemistry while reaction kinetics of coordination compound is known as the area of continuing intense research activity. The mechanism of the reactions of coordination compounds relevance

Synthesis of Butyl Benzoate Using Phase Transfer Catalysis The objective of the experiment is to synthesize the butly benzoate by nucleophilic substitution and characterize it by IR spectroscopy. The percent yield of the final product is determined after the synthesis. Procedures: 2.0 mL of 1-bromobutane‚ 3.0 g of sodium benzoate‚ 5.0 mL of water‚ 4 drops of Aliquat 336‚ and a boiling stone were placed in a 50mL round-bottomed flask. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 1 hour and the flask

Questions and Hypothesis: Seed germination‚ plant growth‚ and sprouting of leaves are affected by several factors: supply of nutrients‚ water‚ exposure to sunlight‚ and conditions of surroundings. Due to certain stimuli in the surroundings plant “hormones” cause plants to behave in ways that ensure the most efficient use of resources while preserving the most energy. One stimulus to consider‚ is the exposure of plants to sunlight; when plants are just sprouting and are underground‚ the sti

that year I became interested in figuring out how the using the same recipes the outcome could be so different. Background Information: Osmosis is the of a solvent across a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration. The water being the solvent can move across the membrane but the salt
