single cell to divide and produce all the differentiated cells in an organism‚ including extraembryonic tissues. Totipotent cells formed during sexual and asexual reproduction include spores and zygotes. Zygotes are the products of the fusion of two gametes. In some organisms‚ cells can dedifferentiate and regain totipotency. For example‚ a plant cutting or callus can be used to grow an entire plant. Human development begins when a sperm fertilizes an egg and creates a single totipotent cell called

TOPIC 3.7 + 8.1: CELL RESPIRATION 3.7.1 Define cell respiration. Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds in cells to form ATP (adenosine triphosphates). 3.7.2 State that‚ in cell respiration‚ glucose in the cytoplasm is broken down by glycolysis into pyruvate‚ with a small yield of ATP. Glycolysis in cytoplasm: Glucose 2 pyruvates + small amount of ATP (does not use oxygen) 3.7.3 Explain that‚ during anaerobic cell respiration‚ pyruvate can be

the cell appeared smaller after being exposed to starch solution was because water molecules move out of the cell because the concentration of water inside the cell was greater than outside the cell. I believe this for a few different reasons. We were given 3 different explanations to explain why the cells appear smaller after being exposed to sugar water. These include: That the sugar molecules are not able to enter the cell‚ but the sugar molecules push on the cell membrane making the cell appear

Title: Ms. K Cell Membrane and Homeostasis Experiment Objective(s): The reason for this experiment is to see how starch and iodine affect each other and how a plastic bag works similar to a membrane in certain situations. Introduction: I know prior to doing this experiment that iodine mixed with starch creates a dark color and that most objects‚ organic and inorganic‚ naturally experience isotonic reactions. Hypothesis: I think that the potato will absorb more starch than the sweet potato and

Cell Theory - Biology Speech on Cell Theory. Cells are the "building blocks" of the body. A human is made of millions of cells‚ which are adapted for different functions. They are composed mainly of a cell membrane‚ cytoplasm‚ vacuole(s) and a nucleus. They are the foundations of all living organisms‚ making them probably cells extremely significant when it comes to biology. They are one of the foundations of biology itself. The Cell Theory is a theory that has been composed‚ changed and altered

Chemistry Investigation Folio: Practical – Galvanic Cell Name: YY Names of Partner: ZZ Part A Investigation Design Proposal: Purpose of Experiment: To determine the effect of concentration of reactants on the current produced by a galvanic cell. Hypothesis: The greater the concentration of solution in the two half cells reacting with the two metals to produce current‚ the greater the flow of current will be produced from the galvanic cell. Independent Variable: Concentration of both reactants

embryos are destroyed‚ discarded‚ or knowingly subjected to risk of injury or death.” Despite the induction of the amendment‚ in 1998 James Thompson of the University of Wisconsin released information showing that he had used cells from human embryos‚ which were then discarded‚ to devise stem cells‚ cells that are the initial undeveloped form of all human cells and can therefore be used to replace any damaged‚ diseased or disabled cell. Upon the release of Thompson’s studies involving stem-cells and the

Environmental variation: Two individuals with the same genotype may become different in phenotype when they come into contact with different conditions of food‚ temp.‚ light‚ humidity and other external factors. Such differences among organisms of same heredity are called as an environmental variation. Environment: can be defined as sum total of an external conditions which influence on organism.
