    Title Membrane Permeability Aim To determine the effect of various chemicals and high temperature on the membrane permeability of beetroot Hypothesis Organic solvent and high temperature will destroy the cell membrane and make it permeable to the red pigment. The higher the concentration of the alcohol‚ the greater will be this effect. Principle Beetroot is the material used in this experiment to demonstrate the effects of high temperature and chemicals on the permeability of the cell membranes

    Planning Aim: - to investigate the effects of different concentrations of alcohol on the membrane structure of a 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:

    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

    Selective attention is very important in our daily lives‚ but we are often unaware of how it really works. Therefore‚ it is worthy to explore its characteristics and functions‚ ways to control it and investigation methods. Selective attention‚ also known as focused attention‚ mainly controls our awareness of particular categories or entities in our environment. When it is involved‚ we focus entirely on one stimulus and ignore others (Elizabeth‚ 2006). For instance‚ when we are working hard on an
