    Effects of Tonicity on Cell Membrane Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effects of tonicity on a cell membrane using red blood cells‚ potato strips and three unknown solutions (A‚ B‚ C). First three slides were prepared containing RBC’s and unknown solutions A‚ B and C. A control slide was prepared only using RBC’s. After observing each slide under the microscope it was determined that unknown solution A was hypertonic because the RBC appeared to have shrunk. The

    1. Antioxidant Compounds in Red Beet Excessive formation of free radicals such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) occur as a byproduct of cellular metabolism. Free radical generation causes oxidative stress which has been associated with undesirable health effects (Valko et al.‚ 2007). Antioxidants are needed when ROS are generated inside the body‚ as the first line of defense (Lobo et al.‚ 2010). Halliwell & Gutteridge (2015) describe an antioxidant as “any substance

    of the plasma membrane found within and around all cells’ The plasma membrane surrounds all eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have membrane bounded organelles whereas prokaryotic cells do not. The plasma membrane forms the boundary between the cell cytoplasm and the environment. Its function are to allow different environments to be established inside and outside the cell. It also controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell. The cell surface membrane which surrounds
