Lab Report 1: Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability Using PhysioEx 8.0 Introduction The purpose of these experiments is to examine the driving force behind the movement of substances across a selective or semiperpeable plasma membrane. Experiment simulations examine substances that move passively through a semipermeable membrane‚ and those that require active transport. Those that move passively through the membrane will do so in these simulations by facilitated

Cardiovascular system: The circulatory system: The circulatory system is made up of the vessels and the muscles that help and control the flow of the blood around the body. This process is called circulation. The main parts of the system are the heart‚ arteries‚ capillaries and veins. As blood begins to circulate‚ it leaves the heart from the left ventricle and goes into the aorta. The aorta is the largest artery in the body. The blood leaving the aorta is full of oxygen. This is important for
