Plant Cell Plant cells are eukaryotic cells or cells with membrane bound nucleus. Generally‚ plant cells are larger than animal cells and are mostly similar in size and are rectangular or cube shaped. Plant cells are similar to animal cells in being eukaryotic and they have similar cell organelles. What is a Plant Cell? Back to Top Plant cells are eukaryotic cells i.e.‚ the DNA in a plant cell is enclosed within the nucleus. The most important distinctive structure of plant cell is the presence

ORGANIC AND INORGANIC CONSTITUENT IN ESSENTIAL IN PLANTS AND NUTRIENTS REQUIRED TO PLANTS Organic constituent DEFINITION An organ‚ system‚ or other discrete element of an organism the part of the plant that carries out photosynthesis. EXPLANATION: The chemical compounds of living things are known as organic compounds because of their association with organisms. Organic compounds‚ which are the compounds associated with life processes‚ are the subject matter of organic chemistry. Among the numerous

structure of plant terpenes Terpenes are an enormous class of organic compounds‚ that are produced by a wide variety of plants and fungi‚ especially conifers. Terpenes are also produced by some of the living organisms‚ like swallowtail butterflies. They emit terpenes from their osmeterium. Terpenes are important materials for a plant as components of its body and as a material to protect it from external enemies since it has a strong smell and colorless. Terpenes are found in biological pigments‚ such

environment such as fishes in salt water‚ Cactus plants in dry land and mammalian cells in aqueous surrounding because of the specialized underlying structures of these life-forms. In order for us to appreciate these special adaptation‚ we first need to know how a typical plant or an animal cell organelle behaves in different water and solute concentrations. In this lab‚ we will determine the effects of hypertonic‚ isotonic and hypotonic solutions on plant and animal cells. In general when an animals

Engineering in Plants In the 1920’s‚ a man named Henry Wallace founded a company called “The Hi-Bred Corn Company.” He began selecting corn plants that flourished in certain aspects and bred them with other prosperous plants to make a hybrid. After pollenating the female silk of one plant with the pollen of another; the resulting offspring displayed both traits. This idea of ‘selective breeding’ would go on to become the norm in that era of agriculture because it produced bigger and better plants. Because

Gas chromatography is the common method used for the biogasoline analysis. Biogasoline catalytic cracking process requires detailed qualitative and quantitative analysis of the hydrocarbon composition of its oil and fraction. In this analysis‚ their fractional composition‚ saturated vapor pressure‚ density and antiknock rating will be investigated. By knowing the qualitative and quantitative composition of the gasolines‚ the content of n-paraffin‚ isoparaffin‚ aromatic‚ naphthene‚ and olefin (PIANO)

By fully understanding the function of photosynthesis‚ some environmental adjustments can then be made to refine the photosynthetic process. In this lab specifically (Lab No. 7)‚ we isolated specific color wavelengths and recorded the rate of photosynthesis in comparison to the unaltered rate of photosynthesis

Title: Candy Chromatography Background Information and Research: Paper Chromatogrpahy is a analytical method that is used for seperating and identifying mixtures of color. There are two stages‚ the stationary phase and the mobile phase. The first is for a solid and the second for a liquid or gas. -Reference http://www.chemguide.co.uk/analysis/chromatography/paper.html Purpose: To see how paper chromatography works.

Strong evidence suggests that different types of photosynthetic cyanobacteria underwent endosymbiosis that evolved into different types of photosynthetic eukaryotes (Biology 108 Lab Manual 2012)
