Lab Report Comparing Animal and Plant Cells The cell is the fundamental structural unit of all living organisms. Cells help carry out the functions of life and together support the organism to function as a whole. Cells are divided into two main categories of eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Animal cells and plant cells fall into the division of eukaryote cells that have both a nucleus and organelles. In this lab‚ animal and plant cells will be compared through a microscope to identify differences

blood plasma osmolarity. Since non-invasive methods were preferred the volume and concentration of urine was used in place of drawing blood. The results that we our anticipating are that ADH levels in the group of subjects that ingested the 6 gm. Of NaCl would increase over time in response to the increased osmolarity of the blood from all of the salt. Urine output would decrease and eventually the body would stabilize. Purpose: In this experiment‚ renal regulation of osmolarity will be demonstrated

Determining the Osmolarity of a Potato Mishal Hasan Abstract Students in Biology find it difficult to understand the concept of tonicity and osmolarity in a real time situation. In this investigation‚ several concentrations of sucrose were used to determine the osmolarity of a potato. It was found that the concentration of sucrose was close to 3.6 in the potato used showing that it was isotonic. Anything above caused the potato to gain weight showing that it was a hypotonic solution and anything

was separated into four stages‚ the first being preparation of cell competency. In this stage two vials were placed in ice baths‚ one vial containing 50 µL of E. coli and the other containing a CaCl2 solution. 630 µL of the CaCl2 solution was then transferred to the E. coli vial‚ using a sterile pipet. After tapping the tube to mix the solution‚ it was then returned to the ice bath to continue incubation for at least 10 minutes. The cell competency preparation was carried out by the instructor in this

Title: To examine an animal and cheek cell using a compound microscope Date: 25th September 2012 Lab Partner: xxxxxxxxxxxxx Objective: The main aim of this experiment was to prepare a wet mount of human cheek cells and a wet mount of plant cells and examine them both under a compound microscope. Introduction: Cells are the basic units of life which make up every structure in the human body. They are the smallest units which are living. All cells contain different organelles which

Osmolarity TITTLE: practical of estimation of osmolarity in tissues by bathing samples in hypertonic and hypotonic solutions. INTRODUCTION: Osmolarity is the osmolar concentration of plasma and is proportional to the number of particles per liter of solutions shown as (mmol/l). It is derived from the measures Na+ and K+‚ urea and glucose concentrations. Since the volume of solution changes with the amount of solute added also it change in temperature and pressure‚ osmolarity we can say it’s

BIO 131 Lab #2 Drawings of Animal and Plant Cells Instructions: 1. Set up light microscope for use. Handle with care. 2. Obtain a slide of animal cells and observe first under low-power (4X)‚ then under medium power (10X)‚ then finally switch to high-power (40X). 3. Make careful observations of the structure of the cells. 4. Draw what you see under high power on a sheet of paper. Place your drawing in a circle measuring 10-15 cm. Use only pencil‚ draw neat lines‚ do not shade. The title

Cell Transportation Lab Eggs are a great example of a cell. Underneath the hard shell is a thin membrane that is just like the cell membranes in your cells. There are microscopic pores in the membrane that allow substances to move in and out of the cell. Way Cool! Recall that the function of the cell membrane is to control the internal balance of the cell. It helps to maintain homeostasis. In this lab you will use vinegar‚ an acid‚ to dissolve the shell off of the egg to expose the membrane

Investigating the Effects of Plant growth within Abstract This experiment was conducted to determine whether or not those plants can grow in low fertilized‚ less sun light and the control group. Each group had there own task of making sure that the plants were always water‚ each plant had the same amount of light on them. When the plants started to evolve each individual plant was measured of the height. Most of the plants grew faster than others but over the period the plants that grew faster started
