AndrewGuerrero BIO 125 Lab Due November 14‚ 2012 Practical Exam 1. a. The symbionts (Paramecium) of the termite belong to the kingdom Protista b. Paramecium living in the intestines of termites breaks down the cellulose walls of wood fibers releasing proteins that are absorbed by the termites’ digestive system. Paramecium benefit by having an environment to thrive and they ingest the wood fibers for their own nutrition as well. 2. c. An important ecological effect

Pre-Lab 1 Assignment Quantitative Analysis of Biomolecules Biochemical analysis involves the characterization of biomolecules within a sample using appropriate laboratory techniques. There are two principal approaches: 1. Qualitative analysis – where a sample is analyzed to determine whether a biomolecule is present or absent. As an example‚ a blood sample might be analyzed for a specific antibody or a bacterial cell might be probed for a nucleic acid sequence. 2. Quantitative analysis

potential. When a plant tissue is immersed in a solution of higher water potential‚ water will enter its cells by osmosis. As the plant cells swell and become turgid‚ the plant tissue will increase in size. On the other hand‚ when the plant tissue is placed in a solution of lower water potential‚ water will leave its cells by osmosis. In this case‚ the plant tissue will decrease in size as the plant cells shrink upon losing water. For this activity‚ you are required to design and perform an experiment to

Muscle Cell at rest: As the muscle cell is at rest it has a resting potential of -90mV. The K+ is all located inside the cell‚ the Na+ is located outside of the cell and the Ca2+ is located inside the sarcoplasmic reticulum. All leak channels and pumps are closed at this point. Muscle Cell stimulated by Acetylcholine: A motor neuron releases Acetylcholine which diffuses toward the muscle cell across the neuromuscular junction. As the Acetylcholine binds to a receptor on the muscle

This result to less damage in their body‚ since other segment duplicate the damage segment functions Locomotion is more efficient‚ since partitions isolate the segment can contract and expand autonomously. 32.3.

Male System The structure and function of the human male reproductive system‚ is very similar to that of many other mammals. The male system is designed to make sperm or male gametes and is adapted to provide for the delivery of these gametes to the female to allow for fertilization. Male Reproductive System Male Reproductive System Structures 1. testes -- produces sperm and the hormone testosterone 2. scrotum -- pouch enclosing the testes keeping the sperm at an optimum temperature

Hartwell‚ Tim Hunt and Sir Paul M. Nurse "for their discoveries of key regulators of the cell cycle". They have identified key molecules that regulate the cell cycle in all eukaryotic organisms‚ including yeasts‚ plants‚ animals and human. These fundamental discoveries have a great impact on all aspects of cell growth. Defects in cell cycle control may lead to the type of chromosome alterations seen in cancer cells. This may in the long-term open new possibilities for cancer treatment. 2. Read the
