    THE WORK DONE BY A CONSERVATIVE FORCE ALWAYS HAS FOUR PROPERTIES: 1. It can be expressed as the difference between the initial and final values of a potential-energy function. 3. It is independent of the path of the body and depends only on the starting and ending points. 2. It is reversible. 4. When the starting and ending points are the same‚ the total work is zero. The total mechanical energy ME = K + U is constant. Object moving in a uniform gravitational field gravitational a

    which cell has the larger resting membrane potential? Explain. If the permeability to K is higher in A than in B‚ then the resting membrane potential (rmp) will be closer to the equilibrium potential in cell A‚ which means the rmp will be more negative in cell A than in cell B; or in other words‚ the potential difference will be LARGER in cell A. 2. Predict the effect of a reduced extracellular concentration of Na+ on the magnitude of the action potential in an electrically excitable cell. If there

For example‚ the heavy ball of a demolition machine is storing energy when it is held at an elevated position. This stored energy of position is referred to as potential energy. Similarly‚ a drawn bow is able to store energy as the result of its position. When assuming

    Abstract: Osmosis is the transport of water across a selectively permeable membrane from a region of a higher water chemical potential to a region of lower water chemical potential. (Tzahi 2006) To demonstrate osmosis lab‚ artificial cells were made with various sucrose concentrations and were placed into beakers of different sucrose solutions. Overall the results showed that the higher percentage of concentration gradient of sucrose‚ the more the artificial cells absorbed. Introduction: The

    Osmosis in Potato Tissue Experiment  Background Information  Osmosis can be defined as the movement of water across a  semi-permeable membrane from a region of high water concentration to a  region of low water concentration.  The semi-permeable membrane allows small particles through it but does  not allow large particles such as sodium chloride. Osmosis will  continue until a state of equilibrium is reached i.e. there is no area  with a higher or lower concentration than another area

    Estimating Osmolarity by Change in Weight Abstract Optimum water content for normal physiological processes in plants is crucial. In order for normal activities to take place‚ the amount of water relative to osmotically active substance (OAS) in cells must be maintained within a reasonable range. The one way to estimate optimum water content is to find osmolarity of plants cells. Osmolarity can be indirectly measure by comparing change in weight and volume when plant cells are incubated in

    there was a higher concentration of water molecules inside the potato chip compared to the concentration of water molecules outside the potato chip. It was stated in my prediction that osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules from a high to a low concentration‚ therefore water molecules from inside the potato chip moved out into the solution. Leading to the cytoplasm inside the cells to shrink and become flaccid. As the cells of the potato chip have lost water they now weigh less than they did
