Experiment 2 : Transport Across Membrane Name : Matrix No : Group : B Semester : 1 Date of Experiment : 05.09.2013 Lecturer’s Name : Miss OBJECTIVE To study the effects of hypotonic‚ hypertonic and isotonic solutions on plant and animal cells. INTRODUCTION In cellular biology the term membrane transport refers to the collection of mechanisms that regulate the passage of solutes such as ions and small molecules through biological membranes‚ which are lipid bilayers that

Virginia Woolf - Death of the Moth As she examines the struggle of a moth trying to achieve something impossible by going through a windowpane to reach the outdoors‚ Virginia Woolf sees the moth in a new light‚ a light that identifies the moth not as insignificant and in demand of pity‚ but a small creature of the world‚ a pure being that was afforded the gift of being “nothing but life.” The very fact that Woolf chooses a moth as the primary focus of her observation

liquid permeability of porous media. The apparatus used in the experiment is the liquid permeameter. The liquid used in this experiment is water. Three membrane samples of different thickness (0.1‚ 0.2‚ 0.3 cm) are used as the porous media. The determination of the permeability is carried out using elevated pressure test. Each sample is tested for 5 times at different values of pressure gradient which are 5‚ 10‚ 15‚ 20 and 30 psi. In order to obtain more accurate data‚ ensure that the membrane samples

Foot-and-mouth disease or hoof-and-mouth disease (Aphthae epizooticae) is aninfectious and sometimes fatal viral disease that affects cloven-hoofed animals‚ including domestic and wild bovids. The virus causes a high fever for two or three days‚ followed byblisters inside the mouth and on the feet that may rupture and cause lameness. Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a severe plague for animal farming‚ since it is highly infectious and can be spread by infected animals through aerosols‚ through contact

Membrane Processing MEMBRANEFILTRATION A membrane or‚ more properly‚ a semipermeable membrane‚ is a thin layer of material capable of separating substances when a driving force is applied across the membrane. Membrane filtration enables to separate particles with a diameter smaller than the pore diameter in the membrane from the liquid feed‚ by applying a driving force (pressure) over the membrane. The membrane technology consists principally of Microfiltration (MF)‚ Ultrafiltration

Through this investigation we found no effect in carbohydrate mouth rinsing on exercise performance. On the contrary to our hypothesis‚ there was no significant difference in distance cycled between those who carbohydrate mouth rinsed and the control (Fig. 1.). In addition‚ we also found that there was no significant difference in HR throughout the entire investigation between treatment groups (Fig. 2.). These exercise performance results is inconsistent with those results obtained by Carter et

2.07 - A Business Images and Brand Promises Case Studies Case Study I Since opening in a suburb of a major metropolitan area two years ago‚ Pablo’s Pepper Pizza has consistently had a huge line of customers waiting for a table. Pablo‚ the owner‚ attributes this to his strong belief that customers are entitled to high quality food at inexpensive prices. His brand promise is to consistently create a fun‚ family-oriented environment centered around great food that won’t break the budget. This

Tissue engineering By Nathan. F Introduction Tissue Engineering is the use of a combination of cells‚ engineering and materials methods‚ and suitable biochemical and physio-chemical factors to improve or replace biochemical functions. The objective of tissue engineering is to create living body parts that will fully integrate with the recipient’s body. Tissue engineering mostly associated with applications that repair or replace portions of or whole tissues. For example bone‚ cartilage

mosaic model of the cell membrane. What is the fluid mosaic model? The fluid mosaic model is a model conceived by S.J. Singer and Garth Nicolson in 1972 to describe the structural features of biological membranes. The membrane is described to be fluid because of its hydrophobic integral components such as lipids and membrane proteins that move laterally or sideways throughout the membrane. That means the membrane is not solid‚ but more like a ’fluid’. The membrane is depicted as mosaic because
