While reading the Organ Sales Will Save Lives article by Joanna MacKay the main claim I felt would have to be in the beginning of the first paragraph where she stated that “governments should not ban the sale of human organs; they should regulate it. Lives should not be wasted; they should be saved”. This part basically explains what the problem is that she is trying to get an answer to which is that more people should be saved from consistently dying because of kidney problems and the government

functional limitations of sense organs. Ans. Our sense organs function with certain limitations. E.g. our eyes cannot see things which are very bright or dim. Our senses function within a limited range of stimulation. In order to be noticed by the sensory receptor‚ a stimulus needs to be of a suitable intensity to be noticed by the sensory receptor‚ i.e. it has to carry a minimum value or weight. The minimum value of a stimulus required to activate a given sensory system is called absolute threshold

diffusion of substances across a semipermeable membrane to gain a better understanding of how cells move materials across cell membranes. The experiment was designed to exhibit Brownian Motion; the random movement and tendency of particles of a substance to move from an area of greater concentration to lower concentration via diffusion until equilibrium has been attained. In addition to observing the passive process of diffusion‚ the experiment demonstrated how a semipermeable membrane will only allow

to discuss different tissue types to achieve D2. In this essay I will include information regarding: cell differentiation‚ the functions of various cell organelles‚ tissues and a comparison of different tissue types. Cellular differentiation is the process by which a less specialised cell becomes a more specialised cell type. Differentiation happens a number of times during the development of a multicellular organism as the organism changes from a fertilised egg cell to a complex system of tissues

Part 1 Part 1 of the experiment investigated the effect of different temperatures on beetroot cell membranes (a type of plant cell). Through this experiment‚ the process of diffusion and osmosis was in action. Various temperatures ranging from low temperatures to high temperatures such as -5⁰C‚ 5⁰C‚ 30⁰C‚ 50⁰C and 80⁰C were used to investigate the temperature effects on beetroot cell membranes. The hypothesis predicted that the higher the temperature the darker the beetroot substance and the lower
