Plant Tissues A mature vascular plant (any plant other than mosses and liverworts)‚ contains several types of differentiated cells. These are grouped together in tissues. Some tissues contain only one type of cell. Some consist of several. Meristematic The main function of meristematic tissue is mitosis. The cells are small‚ thin-walled‚ with no central vacuole and no specialized features. Meristematic tissue is located in • the apical meristems at the growing points of roots and stems. • the

Enzymes in Living Tissues Purpose: The purpose of the lab was to analyze the enzymes in living tissues‚ represented by the pieces of liver. Also‚ hydrogen peroxide was used to demonstrate these effects. Storyboard: Materials: 2 50 mL beakers 10 mL graduated cylinder 3% hydrogen peroxide solution Hot water bath Lemon juice or HCl Fresh liver Forceps Procedure: Measure 10 mL of hydrogen peroxide and record its temperature. Pick the liver up with the forceps and

What is primary tissue culture? Several different types of culture are routinely performed. The Classification of tissue cultures is based on the origin of the cells; which can roughly be divided into "primary culture" and "culture of established cell lines." Primary tissue culture can consist of the culture of a complex organ or tissue slice‚ a defined mixture of cells‚ or highly purified cells isolated directly from the organism. Compared to a cell line using primary culture has the advantages

1/17/13 The Age of the Disposable Tissue In both stories‚ The Crucible and Fahrenheit 451‚ people are treated as disposable tissues. Being treated like a disposable tissue is when somebody uses another person for what they want‚ and then getting rid of them when they don’t need the person anymore. In The Crucible‚ characters are accusing other characters of witchcraft in order to relieve themselves of the blame and guilt. In Fahrenheit 451‚ characters get what they want out of their lives

Muscle fatigue is weakness or weariness resulting from exertion or prolonged stress and the failure to maintain an expected power output. (Amussen) The process by which your body produces energy is called glycolysis. During glycolysis‚ glycogen is broken to produce creatine phosphate‚ which releases energy. The energy released catalyzes a reaction to produce ATP. The ending product of glycolysis is lactic acid‚ which is created by breaking pyruvate acid down. Then lactic acid is broken down to produce

isolated frog muscle could be made to contract when the sciatic nerve was irritated with a metal object‚ conducted the first muscle experiments between 1661 and 1665. Later‚ between 1737-1798 Luigi Galvani determined that frog muscle responded to electrical currents. The kymograph‚ which was invented in the late 1840’s lead to the revolution of experimental physiology because it enabled muscle contractions to be analyzed and recorded. The muscle cell or fiber is the basic unit of a muscle. The frog gastrocnemius
