ACTIVITY 1: THE RESTING MEMBRANE POTENTIAL 1. Explain why increasing extracellular K+ reduces the net diffusion of K+ out the neuron through the K+ leak channels? When the diffusion is greater on one side‚ the other side will slow down. 2. Explain why increasing extracellular K+ causes the membrane potential to change to a less negative value. How well did the results compare with your predictions? There are two potassium’s for every sodium so the increase of potassium will make it more

TRANSPORT IN MAMMALS Blood is a connective tissue and every connective tissue consists of cell‚ ground substance or matrix and fibres. For blood‚ it has cells‚ matrix in the form of plasma and fibres in the form of fibrin. In transportation‚ the surface area to the volume ratio of organisms contributes to the rate of movement of materials. For example in Hydra‚ and flat worms‚ the ratio is so high so simple diffusion can allow substances to reach all tissues easily. If the ratio is low‚ in mechanisms

Review Sheet Results 1. Explain why increasing extracellular K+ reduces the net diffusion of K+ out of the neuron through the K+ leak channels. Your answer: If the extracellular K+ increases then the concentration of intracellular K+ will decrease causing a decrease in the steepness of the concentration gradient and fewer K+ ions would be drawn out. 2. Explain why increasing extracellular K+ causes the membrane potential to change to a less negative value. How well did the results compare

Transport Systems Essay In single celled organisms‚ nutrients‚ water and various substances that are need for basic cellular processes can easily be transported in and out through the cell membrane. This is an effective transport system for microscopic organisms‚ but multicellular organisms require a more complex transport system to sustain itself. Take humans for example; unlike a cell‚ only the outer layer of skin is in contact with the body’s outside environment. It’s not possible for substances

NATIONAL ROAD TRANSPORT POLICY Introduction 1.1 Road transport is vital to economic development‚ trade and social integration‚ which rely on the conveyance of both people and goods. Reduction in transport costs promote specialization‚ extend markets and thereby enable exploitation of the economies of scale. Global competition has made the existence of efficient transport and logistic systems in delivery chain an absolute imperative. Easy accessibility‚ flexibility of operations‚ door-to-door service
