Cellular organelle structure and function Nucleus The Nucleus is comprised of the pore perforated nuclear membranes‚ nucleoplasm‚ chromatin and the nucleolus at the core. The nuclear envelope consists of an inner and outer membrane that forms the outer structure. Contained within the nuclear membrane are nucloplasm which is the fluid medium in which the chromatin is present‚ chromatin being the genetic material. At the core of the nucleus is the nucleolus‚ where ribosomes are synthesized. The

Essay 3 Shubham Tyagi How do our sensory systems work? Write about taste‚ sight‚ hearing and touch. Introduction Sensory systems are important to us; they let us perceive the environment. The senses can be broadly divided in to the sense of touch‚ smell‚ taste‚ vision and hearing. The seemingly simple perception is in fact not as simple as it sounds there is a lot of chemistry

Alternating graded and all-or-none signals on the membrane of a single neuron • Graded potentials decay with distance (electrotonic conduction); longdistance transmission depend on transforming signals to APs • Typically‚ alternating electric (within neuron) and chemical signals (between neurons) • Postsynaptic potential affected by number and frequency of APs Passive spread of electric signal Sub-threshold current flowing along the membrane decays with distance: • Resistance of cytoplasm

vesicular transport 4. Circle the correct term. In pinocytosis / phagocytosis‚ parts of the plasma membrane and cytoplasm expand and flow around a relatively large or solid material and engulf it. 5. Circle the correct term. In active / passive processes‚ the cell provides energy in the form of ATP to power the transport process. Exercise Overview The molecular composition of the plasma membrane allows it to be selective about what passes through it. It allows nutrients and appropriate amounts

for the description of all biological membranes • Transmembrane segments of membrane proteins anchor membrane proteins in the lipid bilayer. • A ganglioside is not a phospholipid. • Thin-layer chromatography separates lipids based on hydrophobicity. • Unsaturated fatty acids have double bonds and increased membrane fluidity. • Cholesterol increases fluidity at low temperatures and decreases fluidity at high temperatures. • Ankyrin is a peripheral membrane protein found in erythrocytes. Therefore

Lab Introduction • What molecules can pass through a semi-permeable membrane? In this lab study we tested carbohydrates such as starch and glucose‚ as well as solutions like Benedict’s and Lugol’s to see if they would cross the membrane of a cell but since we can’t actually see that happen we used dialysis tubing (acts as the cell membrane). • My prediction was that glucose and Benedict’s could pass the semi-permeable membrane but starch and Lugol’s wouldn’t be able to. • The purpose of this

(see appendix one) is a single-celled organism without a membrane-bound structure‚ meaning it lacks a nucleus‚ mitochondria and any other membrane-bound organelles (Unknown‚ 2015). The Eukaryotic is any cell or organism that has a cell membrane-bound structure. Meaning it contains the major organelles inside a cell (Arrington‚ 2014).
