Biology- cell organelles assignment Animal cells: Introduction: An animal cell is called a eukaryotic cell; it has a cell membrane‚ cytoplasm and a nucleus. The cell surface is covered by a membrane only. The cell membrane is strong and keeps the cell together even though it is thin and flexible. The cell membrane also controls what goes in and out of the cell e.g. nutrients go in and waste comes out. The cytoplasm is inside the nucleus and it controls the cells activities. An animal is

Stem Cells: Future of Failure? When does a sperm and egg begin to resemble what we call a fetus? Research has shown that at four weeks‚ the embryo is the size of an seasame seed (New Health Advisor). The cells that make up this sesame seed could be the future of regenerative medicine. Stem cells are the cells made during the process of fertilization. They are the first traces of humans‚ making them basically a blank slate for all types of cells. They can become essentially any type of cell in the

Should cell phones be allowed in school? Yes. They should be allowed in school. Used in class‚ yes. They must have it on vibrator thought and can’t answer it while a teacher is talking. And you can’t disturb you class. In other words‚ someone in "Twee tribune" believes that cell phones should be allowed in school but a good handle full of students believes that cell phones should not. Cell phones are an electronic device that is used to make mobile telephone calls across a wide geographic area

Cell Membrane The Cell Membrane- The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell; the cell membrane is made up of phospholipids‚ proteins and carbohydrates. Its function is to protect the integrity of the interior of the cell allowing certain substances into the cell‚ while keeping other substances out. The phospholipids form a thin‚ flexible sheet while the proteins float in the phospholipid sheet like an ice berg‚ and the carbohydrates extend out from the

Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) which capable of harvesting electricity from renewable biomass and organic wastes arise as a promising yet challenging candidate to the existing sustainable energy portfolio (Picioreanu‚ et al. 2010). II. Historical Overview of Microbial Fuel Cells The idea of extracting energy from organic matters through the catalytic reactions of microorganisms emerged a century

Sickle Cell Disease Blood has been considered the essence of life for centuries‚ and our blood is a living tissue made up of liquid and solids. There are many diseases related to blood such as anemia which is the decrease in oxygen supply to tissue and causes hypoxia‚ thalassemia is the mutation in one or more globin gene of hemoglobin‚ etc. Therefore‚ one of blood disorders is the most common symptomatic hemoglobinopathy with the greatest prevalence in worldwide which is called sickle cell disease

“Largest Study on Cell Phones and Cancer Finds No Link”‚ Associated Press‚ Time‚ October 21‚ 2011 This article talks about how cell phones are not linked to cancer. According to Danish researchers‚ the biggest study ever consisting of 350‚000 people found no evidence of any link. This concluded that people who have used a cell phone for a decade don’t have different cancer rates than those who have not. Last year‚ a different study found no connection between cell phones and cancer. But

Chapter-8 Cell: The Unit Of Life What is a cell? Cell is the basic or fundamental structural and functional unit of an organism. What is cell biology? The branch of biology that deals with the study of cell structure and function is called cell biology. DISCOVERIES; Who discovered cell? Robert Hooke observed a live cell in 1665. He observed the cell(actually the cell walls) in the slice of cork under his compound microscope ‚coined the term cell‚ recorded his observations in micrographic
