    betacyanin of 0.09 µM while the -5⁰C test tube had a concentration of 23.5 µM‚ around 260 times more betacyanin leakage. Which suggests that there has been severe damage to the plasma membrane rendering it unable to perform its main function of being a selective barrier (Reece et al. 2011) leading to the flow of betacyanin out of the cell. While the concentration of betacyanin present in the test tube exposed to 40⁰C water was 1.13‚ the difference in concentrations is not as immense as compared to the concentration

    Cell Membrane Transport The purposes for these experiments is to be able to understand osmosis and its relationship to tonicity of solutions‚ and the transportation of molecules across cell membranes. It’s also used to understand‚ and how temperature affects diffusion. You also learn how to test for presences of starches and sugars in solutions. In the first exercise I will be testing for diffusion through an artificial membranes. This one has forty five steps to it. I will not go into

    Active and passive transport are the ways in which cells allow things to move into and out of the cell through the cell membrane. They include many different ways to transport things. Passive transport requires no expenditure of energy by the cell. However‚ Active transport requires ATPs which have energy in order for it to move something through the cell membrane. There are different types of transport to suit the sizes of molecules as well. Passive transport includes diffusion‚ osmosis‚ and

    Urban transport policy in Singapore is becoming more difficult to handle. In the early 1970s Singapore faced traffic chaos‚ a failing bus system‚ little money for infrastructure and acute awareness of space limitations. The answer was a hard-headed “bargain” that offered steady improvements in space-efficient public transport at the price of making ownership of space-wasting cars unattainable for most. This has been widely seen as a success However‚ both sides of this bargain are under growing

    Gaseous exchange and transport Movement of chemicals in plants and animals -Chemicals that are being moved into the body‚ within the body or out of the body are gases‚ this movement is known as gaseous exchange. -The gases being moved in our out of the body need to move across the surface area of the body‚ in most cases a special surface area has been developed. -The surface that the gases cross is called the respiratory surface and the gases move across this surface by the process of diffusion
