Plan:- Independent Variable- Temperature is what I will be changing in the experiment. I want to find out what effect temperature has on the permeability of a cell membrane. Controlling other Variables- I will use measures to ensure that everything stays the same in my test to gain the best and most reliable results possible - Same volume of water that I put the beetroot into after heating. - The beetroot I use will be the same size each time‚ I will ensure this using a cork borer. - The beetroot

ORGANIC MATTER AND INORGANIC MATTE Organic matter is that which is living or has been alive‚ e.g. wood or coal. Inorganic matter is that which is not living and never has been alive‚ e.g. water or iron. Inorganic substances can be built up into organic compounds by living organisms. All living matter is made up of small units called cells. Some organisms‚ such as bacteria‚ consist of one single cell; others‚ like human beings‚ consist of many hundreds of millions of cells‚ all functioning together

Aim: To investigate how effect of Detergent Concentration (cont.) has on Membrane permeability of Beetroot cells. Hypothesis: I predict that as detergent concentration increases‚ the solution will become less clear‚ plus mass increases. The increases in mass will indicate that the water potential of the Beetroot cell is lower than that of the surrounding sucrose solution. The Beetroot discs will become flaccid and decrease in mass if the water potential of the surrounding solution is lower than

if there are a higher concentration of sucrose in the visking tubing‚ the water in the beaker will move into the visking tubing to make both solution balanced (isotonic). In order for osmosis to occur naturally‚ a semi-permeable membrane is required as a medium. A visking tubing is a semi-permeable membrane‚ therefore it will be used to act as the ‘cell’ for the experiment. This is because the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane of an actual cell is selectively permeable‚ allowing diffusion

a major issue and it causes problems as the kidney cannot filter the blood. How does a renal dialysis work: A dialysis machine tries to mimic some of the functions of a normal human kidney. One of the jobs of a kidney is to remove urea and some salts from the blood so they can leave the body in the urine. In a dialysis machine‚ blood from the patient runs through tubes made of a semi-porous membrane. Outside the tubes is a sterile solution made up of water‚ sugars and other components. Red and

concentrations of alcohol on the membrane structure of a beetroot a) Decide what you think will be the effect of alcohol on beetroot cell surface membranes and how this will affect their permeability. Write down your idea as a hypothesis that you can test‚ and support your idea with biological knowledge. Hypothesis “The greater the concentration of the alcohol the more red pigments (betalains) move into the solution.” Biological knowledge: The exposure of the beetroot cell membrane to alcohol makes it

leaky blood vessel network irrigates solid tumors. In this context‚ vascular permeability drives tumor-induced angiogenesis‚ blood flow disturbances‚ inflammatory cell infiltration‚ and tumor cell extravasation. This can directly restrain the efficacy of conventional therapies by limiting intravenous drug delivery. Indeed‚ for more effective anti-angiogenic therapies‚

Investigate factors affecting cell membrane permeability in beetroot. Research Question: How does variation in temperature affect the permeability of cell membranes? Background Information: In this investigation I will want to identify how variations in temperature effect the permeability through the use of a beetroot. I predict that as the temperature of the water increases so will the dispersion of the pigment. Independent Variable: The temperature of water will be increased in increments of 10oC
