three main parts of a cell. plasma membrane-forms a cell’s flexible outer surface‚ separating the cell’s internal environment (inside the cell) from its external environment (outside the cell) cytoplasm- consists of all the cellular contents between the plasma membrane and the nucleus. nucleus- is the largest organelle of a cell. The nucleus acts as the control center for a cell because it contains the genes‚ which control cellular structure and most cellular activities The cell is the basic‚ living

beetroot a) Decide what you think will be the effect of alcohol on beetroot cell surface membranes and how this will affect their permeability. Write down your idea as a hypothesis that you can test‚ and support your idea with biological knowledge. Hypothesis “The greater the concentration of the alcohol the more red pigments (betalains) move into the solution.” Biological knowledge: The exposure of the beetroot cell membrane to alcohol makes it more permeable. If there would be no membrane there

WEEK 1 GEN Adverse reactions for drugs occur because: No drug has only one receptor it binds to. A drug that occupies and "turns on" a receptor is an: agonist Before marketing a new drug‚ the drug company asks the FDA to approve its choice of: trade name The time between when a drug response is observable and when there is no longer an observable drug effect is called the duration of action This term refers to how much of a drug must be given to see a desired response potency

I am disappointed with the SFSU bookstore. I went to the bookstore to buy a Scantron sheet for my final exam in Spring 2016. Whether I went there in the morning or at noon‚ there was always a long line in front of the checkout counter. I spent at least one hour to buy a Scantron sheet. I really hate to waste so much time in line. There are two checkout counters on the upper floor‚ I couldn’t understand why they just used only one counter. I suggest you buy a Scantron earlier. Moreover‚ I am not satisfied

Unit 2: Supply and Demand Study Guide and Review Questions Rachel Bracker‚ Scott Doyle‚ Lyra Hall and Christine Wong Winter 2010 Period 3 Terms Background and Straightforward concepts: 1. Competition: rivalry in supplying or acquiring an economic service or good 2. Free Market: a market where the price is arranged by the mutual consent of sellers and buyers‚ without government or trader manipulation 3. Equilibrium: when supply and demand are balanced at a price

this investigation I will be measuring the effects of temperature on the membrane permeability of beetroot. I will be measuring the amount of anthocyanin that will diffuse out of the beetroot. The way in which I will measure the anthocyanin is to check the light absorbency of the solution using a colorimeter. The higher the reading on colorimeter the more anthocyanin present in the solution To find out the permeability of the beetroot membrane I will firstly cut out cylinders of beetroot using a cork

Title L6 – Soil Permeability – Constant Head Test Introduction Permeability is measured in term of water flow through the soil in a given time. The soil permeability is a very important factor to study the behavior of soil in its natural condition with respect to water flow. The size of pore space and interconnectivity of the spaces help determine permeability‚ so shape and arrangement of grains play a role. Often the term hydraulic conductivity is used when discussing groundwater properties

Membrane Permeability Objectives: 1. Define solvent‚ solute‚ solution‚ selectively permeable‚ diffusion‚ osmosis‚ concentration gradient‚ equilibrium‚ turgid‚ plasmolyzed‚ plasmolysis‚ turgor pressure‚ tonicity‚ hypertonic‚ isotonic‚ hypotonic; 2. Describe the effects of hypertonic‚ isotonic‚ and hypotonic solutions on Elodea leaf cells and onion scale leafs. Introduction: Membrane permeability is a quality of a cell’s plasma membrane that allows substances to pass in and out of the cell‚ so that

REVIEW SHEET EXERCISE 2 Skeletal Muscle Physiology NAME: Jasmine Young LAB TIME/DATE: 1. Define each of the following terms: • motor unit - A motor unit consists of a motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers it innervates. • twitch - Skeletal Muscle twitch is the mechanical response to a single action potential. It has three phases known as the latent‚ contraction‚ and relaxation phase. • threshold - the threshold is the minimal stimulus needed to cause a depolarization of the muscle plasma membrane
