Sickle Cell Anemia Sickle cell anemia is an inherited blood disorder‚ identified by the sickle shape of red blood cells which carry less oxygen and break easily‚ causing anemia. The sickling trait‚ the less serious form‚ occurs from the inheritance of only one parent; however‚ both parents must exhibit the disease in order for full symptoms to take place. It is caused by an error in the gene that tells the body how to make hemoglobin. The disorder is usually found in people of African descent

Brainstorm: New Cell Pone Idea Think-tank: We recognize that people want longer lasting cell phones. Calculators run on solar power‚ why can’t we use this technology to help our cell phones perform Generate new ideas: Solar Power/battery power cell phone Think of Ways that your product will be Unique: It can be charged without an outlet if it is in reach of the sun’s rays. It would be the first of its kind. There will also be a battery just in case there is no sunlight. But the battery can

Osmosis of a Potato cell. Hypothesis is that the potato in saltwater is going to show that it will break down the cells of the potato. Osmosis is the diffusion of a solvent through a semi-permeable membrane‚ from a solution of low solute concentration to a solution with high solute concentration‚ up a solute concentration gradient. Net movement of solvent is from the less-concentrated to the more-concentreated.‚ which tends to redure the difference in concentrations. This effect can be countered

of cells and their ultra structure The cell is the basic unit of life. Each cell can be regarded as a metabolic compartment‚ a separate place where the chemical processes of that cell occur. Cells are often designed to perform a particular function. Depending on that function‚ each cell type has an internal structure that suits it for its job. This is known as the ultrastructure of the cell. There are different types of cells inside the human body. They are the epithelial cells‚ muscle cells‚ nerve
