Learning about Cells. First thing I want to show you is two beautiful pictures of a Cell. Imagine all of this is in something so small we cannot see it with our naked eyes. About 10‚000 average-sized human cells can fit on the head of a pin. There are a few exceptions‚ but the average cell is very tiny. Here are a few beautiful examples of a cell structure to kind of give you an idea of its beauty‚ and how they fit together. Plasma Membrane (cell membrane) First we are going to learn about

Cancerous cells are being found more and more frequently in men and women each year. There are two known causes to this phenomenon: the tumor suppressor genes and proto-oncogenes. They are mutations that occur in the main cells of the body that ultimately lead to the formation of cancer. A single gene mutation is all that is necessary to drive the cancer cells to grow and divide uncontrollably. As this occurs the body cells go into apoptosis; if the patient does not take the necessary steps for immediate

General Biology 1 Sickle cell anemia is an inherited disease in which there aren’t enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout the body . Where the cell is deformed is in the bone marrow ‚a gene in the bone marrow causes the blood cell to come out in a sickle cell shape because the hemoglobin in the defected body is abnormal‚ after it gives up the oxygen‚ bet together causeing the red blood cells to become to a sickle like shape.People with Sickle cell anemia have abnormal hemoglobin

I have always had a passion for the STEM field. Ever since I was a child I have been exposed to biomedical engineering from a young age‚ have always loved my science and classes‚ and have had experiences that have introduced me to different fields of STEM. So far I have taken ten STEM classes in Highschool. and my favorite was Biology. I remember loving every second of every lab we did and excelled in them. I have taken 4 lab based courses Pre-AP Biology‚ Pre-AP chemistry‚ AP physics and AP Chemistry

Muscle cell I choose the muscle cell because around 12-13 years of age is the normal time for kids to have a big growth time and have their muscle and body grow quicker than normal.And being 12 what not a better time to do this. One of the coolest parts of the muscle cell is how complex it is with many different types of fibers and other layers that all work together. Another cool thing is how you can train them to make them smarter and bigger‚ what i mean by smarter is how they remember things like

Embryonic Stem Cell Research: How does it affect you? Embryonic stem cell research is widely controversial in the scientific world. Issues on the ethics of Embryonic Stem (ES) cell research have created pandemonium in our society. The different views on this subject are well researched and supportive. The facts presented have the capability to support or possibly change the public’s perspective. This case study is based on facts and concerns that much of the research done on embryonic stem cells

have a huge impact on the communication between cells. Cell communication is a crucial process necessary for cells to carry out various functions. Drugs such as Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA)‚ known as ecstasy‚ can create barriers or confusion to cells. Cell to cell communication carry messages from signaling cells to target cells. Usually a cell will bind with a target cell through a receptor protein in the plasma membrane of the target cell

Sickle-cell disease‚ also known as sickle-cell anaemia‚ is a hereditary blood disorder‚ caused by an abnormality in the oxygen-carrying protein hemoglobin found in red blood cells. This leads to a propensity for the cells to assume an abnormal‚ rigid‚ sickle-like shape under certain circumstances. Sickle-cell disease is associated with a number of acute and chronic health problems‚ such as severe infections‚ attacks of severe pain‚ stroke‚ and an increased risk of death. Sickle-cell disease occurs

Function: The plasma membrane in eukaryotic cells is responsible for controlling what goes in and out of the cell. Series of proteins stuck in the membrane help the cell to communicate with the surrounding environment it’s in. This communication can include sending and receiving chemical signals from other eukaryotic cells. Organelle: Cytoplasm Structure: Cytoplasm is a gel like substance which is located between the cell membrane holding all the cells organelles in place (except the nucleus). Function:
