Alveolar Surface Tension and Surfactant in the Compliance of the Lungs Alveolar surface tension is important for the lungs to function efficiently. Surfactant is a lining in the alveoli made of lipids and proteins. Surface tension of the alveoli are important to keep the alveoli shape‚ but surfactant is needed to regulate surface tension. Also surface tension promotes movement of fluids across the alveolar membrane‚ therefore the surfactant also regulates the movement of fluids. Attraction of

October 2014 Cell Division Mitosis Abstract Mitosis and Meiosis: Cells can be divided in unicellular organisms or in multi-cellular organisms. DNA controls the cell division. Bacteria reproduce by a process called binary fission. Bacteria have one chromosome that’s attached to the cell membrane. The chromosome replicates and the two copies separate as the cell grows. Over a period of time this one cell makes two cells. Eukaryotes do the process of mitosis. In mitosis‚ each daughter cell gets about

Eukaryotic Cells Cells are the basic building block of life. Cells can be either Eukaryotic or Prokaryotic cells. Organism can only contain either one but not both of them. Prokaryotic cells are usually much smaller than Eukaryotic and are less complex. Bacteria are made up of one or more prokaryotic cells. Bacteria are made up of one or more prokaryotic cells. While Eukaryotic cell are found inside plant and animal life. Eukaryotic are more advanced and larger. Prokaryotic cell were the first

Cellular respiration is the complete cycle of a glucose molecule that happens to be using oxygen. The three stages of cellular respiration are: Glycosis‚ the Krebs cycle‚ and the electron transport chain. What is the role of glycolysis? Include the reactants and the products. Where does it occur? Glycolysis is the
