1a. Aquaporins are membrane proteins that have fourteen various structures however the most common form is that of a homotetramer. The homotetramer is often found in the membrane and composed of four aquaporin membranes. The structural arrangement creates a fifth channel in the middle that allows for gas transportation. 1b. The direction of H2O molecular flow through a channel is determined by an osmotic gradient. 1c. One of the mechanisms that prevents proton channeling is due to the (ar/R) and

Diffusion and Osmosis of Solutes and Water Across a Membrane Brittany Bacallao Nova Southeastern University Abstract: This experiment gave a visual understanding of osmosis and diffusion. The first experiment proved that solutes would move down a concentration gradient if permeable to the selective membrane. The second experiment proved different solute concentrations affect the movement of water‚ depending on the solute concentration inside the cell. The purpose of this lab was to look for different

I S E 1 Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability P R E - L A B Q U I Z 1. Circle the correct term. A passive process‚ diffusion / osmosis is the movement of solute molecules from an area of greater concentration to an area of lesser concentration. 2. A solution surrounding a cell is hypertonic if: a. it contains fewer nonpenetrating solute particles than the interior of the cell. b. it contains more nonpenetrating solute particles than the interior of the cell. c. it contains the same

Cells Now we need to discuss CELLS. You’ve probably heard of cells‚ and may even know of a few‚ such as blood cells‚ nerve cells‚ or skin cells. What are these things called cells? Cells are the smallest living things. You’ll be learning a lot about cells in this course. For now‚ however‚ I’ll introduce you to just a few basic things about them. Cells are extremely tiny organisms that carry out all of the functions of life inside a thin layer of “skin” called (unimaginatively) the CELL MEMBRANE

The Dangers of Cell Phones Our community has increased greatly in technology during the past 20-30 years. Cell phones have given us more freedom and have also given us more freedom and have also given us the ability to communicate with anyone we want at anytime we choose. Cell phones‚ to some‚ are the greatest things invented to mankind‚ but every single thing must have a negative side. What is the negative side of cell phones? Cell phones are a horrible distraction‚ they are said to cause cancer
