    Overview: Life at the Edge The plasma membrane separates the living cell from its nonliving surroundings. This thin barrier‚ 8 nm thick‚ controls traffic into and out of the cell. Like all biological membranes‚ the plasma membrane is selectively permeable‚ allowing some substances to cross more easily than others. Concept 7.1 Cellular membranes are fluid mosaics of lipids and proteins The main macromolecules in membranes are lipids and proteins‚ but carbohydrates are also important. The

    Experiment 1: Quantitative assessment of Some Cellular Constituents Summary: Euglena gracilis are unicellular organisms in the Protist Kingdom. They are known to have both plant and animal characteristics. Although‚ Euglena cells contain a variety of cellular constituents‚ their cellular constituents should be presented in equal ratio. The objective of this experiment is to determine Euglena’s cellular components in cells and then to establish their cellular constituents by comparing the experimental

    In BBC’s film The Cell: The Hidden Kingdom Dr. Rutherford takes the viewer on a scientific quest to find the secrets of the cell‚ a story that is often left untold. For this reason (because it contains important information that is generally unknown) it is absolutely necessary and I highly recommend for everyone to watch it. At first the film may sound unappealing to some who don’t enjoy these sorts of films but that is probably because the film’s title is rather generic and as a result it may deter

    Meiosis was discovered and described for the first time in sea urchin eggs in 1876 by the German biologist Oscar Hertwig. It was described again in 1883‚ at the level of chromosomes‚ by the Belgian zoologist Edouard Van Beneden‚ in Ascaris worms’ eggs. The significance of meiosis for reproduction and inheritance‚ however‚ was described only in 1890 by German biologist August Weismann‚ who noted that two cell divisions were necessary to transform one diploid cell into four haploid cells if the number

    Unit II Test Review Chapter 4 BB Notes Cells Under the Microscope Cells are microscopic in size. Although a light microscope allows you to see cells‚ it cannot make out the detail that an electron microscope can. The overall size of a cell is regulated by the surface-area-to-volume ratio. 4.2 The Plasma Membrane The plasma membrane of both prokaryotes and eukaryotes is a phospholipid bilayer. The phospholipid bilayer regulates the passage of molecules and ions into and out of the cell. The
