Discuss the Role of Hydrogen Bonding in living Organisms A hydrogen bond is an intermolecular bond and is formed when a charged part of a molecule having polar covalent bonds‚ forms an electrostatic attraction with a molecule of opposite charge‚ generally with fluorine‚ oxygen and nitrogen. Molecules having non polar covalent bonds do not form hydrogen bonds. Hydrogen bonds are classified as weak bonds as they are easily and rapidly formed and broken‚ however the cumulative effects of large

Genetically Modified Organisms Genetically modified Organisms (GMOs) has become a popular topic nationwide. The argument of whether it is ethical to use biotechnology to develop crops has been debated back and forth. However‚ GMOs have been proven time and time again that they can increase food production‚ lower costs‚ and decrease damage on the environment. The increased use of pesticides and fertilizers on plants over the years have made a big impact on the environment. These harmful chemicals

society using an organic analogy; they say society is like a biological organism. Parsons found three similarities between society and an organism. System organisms such as the human body and society are both self-regulating and inter-related‚ independent parts fit together in fixed ways. In the body these are organs; in society they are institutions‚ such as family and education. Both organisms have system needs for example an organism needs nutrition without which it would die. Social systems have basic

Why is water important for living organisms? Water is very important in all living organisms‚ it is vital for many different things. Around 70% of our body weight is due to water. The quantity is high in organs such as lungs and brain and fluids such as blood‚ lymph‚ saliva and secretions by the organs of the digestive system. First of all water is vital in the regulation of body temperature to depending on the temperature mammals will alter the amount they sweat. If they are to warm the amount

The Process of Osmosis and its Importance to Living Organisms. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane that does not allow dissolved solids (solutes) to pass. Osmosis refers only to diffusion of water and the direction of movement is from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration. This migration of water from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration is spontaneous and although water molecules move in both directions

Yuly Restrepo Enc 1101 24 March 2014 Genetically modified Seeds vs Organic Seeds Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) is one of the most important issues around the world. GMOs are special organisms in which the genetic material has been altered for faster growth‚ product quality‚ better pest and disease resistance and can grow in the worst of climates. GMOs also carry a lot of cons‚ such as unexpected side effects‚ problems with labeling of GM foods‚ ecological damage. Organic harvesting means
