The cell‚ which is the smallest unit of life‚ is surrounded by a plasma membrane. The plasma membrane functions somewhat like a wall‚ as it keeps the internal contents from the external environment. Just like a wall‚ the membrane is also somewhat permeable‚ except that the membrane takes a much more active role in determining what is allowed in to the cell and what is kept out. The plasma membrane is a very thin structure‚ which has some very important tasks. One of the main tasks that it performs

Scientific Discovery of Plasma. Plasma‚ the "Fourth State of Matter‚" was first identified in a Crookes tube‚ an experimental electrical discharge tube in which air is ionized by the application of a high voltage through a voltage coil‚ and it was described by Sir William Crookes‚ an English physicist‚ in 1879. It was first called "radiant matter”. However‚ Dr. Irving Langmuir‚ an American chemist and physicist‚ applied the word "Plasma" to ionized gas‚ in 1929. Plasma just happens to be the most

Plasma Complexity! Plasma is said to a substance similar to gas in which a certain portion of the particles are ionized. The basic premise is that heating a gas dissociates its molecular bonds‚ rendering it into its constituent atoms. Further heating leads ionization‚ turning it into plasma: containing charged particles‚ positive ions and negative electrons. The presence of a non-negligible number of charge carriers makes the plasma electrically conductive so that it responds strongly to electromagnetic
