Julia Babin Ms. Bukola 11/6/2012 Bio Lab W 8 Cell Structure and Function Prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells do contain a nucleus. Organisms are eukaryotic except Bacteria and Achaea. Organelles are small membranous bodies‚ each with a specific structure and function. Prokaryotes do have cytoplasm‚ which is the material bounded by a plasma membrane and cell wall. This contains ribosomes‚ small granules that coordinate the synthesis of proteins

Brain Structures and Functions Viviana N. Reyes ESE370: Learning & the Brain (CXI1409A) Instructor: Charisse Jones March 9‚ 2014 Brain Structures and Functions Many are fascinated by the brain and its functions. Our brain is composed of different units and lobes that work together but each part‚ of course‚ has a special function. We all ask ourselves‚ how is it that we learn? Do our senses have anything to do with getting new information into our brain? Technology

Lipids are made up of carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen (phospholipids also contain phosphate) and are found in a wide variety of organisms from bacteria to eukaryotes where they perform a wide variety of useful functions. This essay will expand on these functions to describe the role of lipids. There are several types of lipid including triglycerides‚ steroids‚ waxes and phospholipids. Triglycerides are made up of three fatty acids combined with glycerol by an ester linkage meaning they are predominantly

Cell Structure and FunctionAbstractThis report is about cell structure and function. The cell is the basic unit of life. All living things are madeof cells. By doing this lab‚ I hoped to learn how a cell looked and how it functioned. I also wanted toknow the differences between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells.IntroductionThe concept of this lab is producing a replica of an animal cell‚ and a plant cell. Producing the models of the cells helps to provide a better understanding of each cell

Give an account of protein structure and function Protein structure 1 Proteins consist of amino acids joined together (in chains) 2 A protein is unique because of the sequence of amino acids 3 The amino acids are joined by strong peptide bonds 4 to produce the primary structure 5 Further (weak) hydrogen bonding between acids 6 produce the secondary and tertiary structures A maximum of 4 marks can be gained from this section. Protein function 7 Some proteins are enzymes + named example

The structure and function of carbohydrates A carbohydrate is an organic molecule containing only Carbon‚ Hydrogen and Oxygen with the general formula Cn(H20)n. They are made up of individual molecules called monomers which are joined together by condensation reactions to make a longer chain called a polymer. Carbohydrates are categorised in to three main groups; monosaccharides‚ disaccharides and polysaccharides. Monosaccharides are single sugars and are sweet tasting soluble substances such

Plant Structure and Function Plant Body The unique organization of tissues in flowering plants is part of the reason why they are the dominant group of the plant kingdom. Monocots and Dicots Meristems Meristems – region of undifferentiated cells that can divide rapidly. Apical meristems – shoots and tip of roots (primary growth) Lateral meristems – thickening of the cambium (secondary growth) Plant Tissues Plant Tissues Xylem – conducts water and mineral ions; fluids can

Role of Stomata & Control Stomata : a pore found in the epidermis of plants which are used to control as exchange Main function of stomata : Allow enough C02 to enter the leaf to optimize photosynthesis‚ while conserving as much water as possible Structure of stomata * Each stomata consists of a stoma (minute pore) which are surrounded by 2 guard cells. * Stomata closes and opens according to the turgidity of the guard cells * Stomata also allows for cooling of the leaf by loss
