Using dialysis tubing to model diffusion of a cell membrane and investigating the influence of solute concentration on osmosis Purpose * Discover how dialysis tubing diffuses the cell membrane * Explore the effect of solute concentration on osmosis Background A cell membrane is a very significant function in the human body. In one sense‚ it is used as a barrier to keep the enzymes‚ DNA‚ and metabolic pathways that bundles everything together. Cell membranes are also used as a gateway for waste

Introduction Human cilia play a critical part in human processes. Human cilia are hair-like projections that extend from the surface of a cell. Cilia are capable of rhythmic motion and acts together from separate strands so that the cell is capable of movement. Flagella are a whip-like structure that is found in cells as well that allow for the movement of the cell. Human cilia are characterized as having “metachronal rhythm" and this means is a rhythm that "changes time" to produce wave. The beating

Mallory Charland February 9‚ 2015 Mutations of E. coli Lab Report Advanced Biology Deducing Mutations of the Lac Operon of E. coli Abstract: In this lab we determined a possible mutation in unique bacterial strains of E. coli by observing the proper responses of wild type E. coli Lac Operon as a control group. Mutated strains of E. coli were placed in four test tubes‚ each containing a different substance (lactose‚ glucose‚ water and lactose and glucose)

December 8‚ 2013 Soil Analysis Lab Report Intro: Soil is produced over hundreds of years through the weathering of rocks and the decomposition of organic material. Soil contains nutrients that are taken from decomposed animals and plants which turn to detritus. Nutrients such as nitrogen are added to the soil in these ways by organisms such as nitrogen fixing bacteria. Soil is important because it is the fuel to the plants that we need in order to survive and for all species to survive. Soil

Introduction Memory is defined as the faculty by which the mind stores and remembers information(Eysenck & keane‚ 2010). Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968) (Cowan‚ Rouder‚ & Stadler‚ 2000)‚ came up with a model of sensory memory which stated not everything we perceive we process. Craik and Tulving (1975) developed an opposing theory in which they proposed the levels of processing theory‚ stating its not the processing but the type of quality of the processing that is performed‚ that determines the retention
