Surface Area Formulas In general‚ the surface area is the sum of all the areas of all the shapes that cover the surface of the object. Cube | Rectangular Prism | Prism | Sphere | Cylinder | Units Note: "ab" means "a" multiplied by "b". "a2" means "a squared"‚ which is the same as "a" times "a". Be careful!! Units count. Use the same units for all measurements. Examples |Surface Area of a Cube = 6 a 2

fluid 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

2. Draw and completely label a cell membrane. [pic] 4. List and briefly discuss the 5 components of cellular membranes. 1. Phospholipids layer- 2 layers ‚ polar and non polar ‚ polar facing the extracellular fluid and cytoplasm 2. Transmembrane proteins-integral membrane proteins are proteins that expand the membrane 3. Interior protein network-peripheral proteins are in the interior side of the membrane 4. Cell surface markers are glycolipids‚ carbohydrates/lipid

Investigating the effect of surface area to volume ratio on Osmosis As far as living organisms are concerned‚ they are all made up of cells whereas‚ the membrane surrounds all those cells. The cell membrane has the key responsibility to maintain a stable interval environment. Even though‚ Cell membrane is made up of phospholipids bilayer and has that great amount flexibility making it unbreakable while transportation of substances. However‚ certain substances such as‚ dissolved gases‚ sugars‚ salt

The Cell membrane surrounds all living cells and is the most important organelle‚ there is also a similar plasma membrane that surrounds all the organelles except for the ribosome. The membrane controls how and what substances can move in and out of the cell/organelle The structure of the membrane is often referred to as the “Fluid Mosaic Model”; this is because of the way it is structured It is composed of phospholipids‚ proteins‚ and carbohydrates‚ which are arranged in a fluid

permeability of the cell membrane. Introduction Located within the vacuole of beetroot cells is a red pigment call Betalains. Typically these pigments are contained within the cell vacuole by the tonoplast (vacuole membrane)‚ however When beetroot is heated these red pigments escape the vacuole. This experiment aims to explore the effect of temperature on the permeability of the cell membranes (i.e. Tonoplast). ‘The cell surface membrane is the plasma membrane that surrounds cells and forms the

Assignment 1: Cell Membranes and Temperature Background Theory Beetroot contains betalain pigments within it’s vacuole‚ which gives it it’s purple-red colour‚ it’s this pigment which leaks out as the beetroot is heated and the cells membrane begins to break down. The practicals aim is to show the effect of temperature on the cell membrane by observing the colour change of the water the beetroot was placed in. The cell membrane is important as it controls the substances enters and leaves the cell with

Formulas of Surface area and Lateral surface area of Polyhedrons LSA or Lateral Surface Area refers to the sum of the areas of all the faces of a three-dimensional figure‚ excluding its bases. SA or Surface Area- refers to the sum of the areas of all the faces of a three-dimensional figure. It also referred to as the Total Surface Area (TSA). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For Rectangular Prism LSA= P(h) *where P=perimeter of the base ; h= measurement of the height SA= 2B+ LSA *where
