the size of cheek cell and onion cell DCP: Introduction: In this experiment‚ Onion cells (Allium cepa) Cheek cells (Homo sapiens) were measured and compared. The aim of this experiment is to find out how both cells differ by comparing their size. Onion cells (Allium cepa) is plant cell and Cheek cells (Homo sapiens) is an animal cell. Hypothesis: The size of an animal cell (Homo sapiens) should be smaller than a plant cell (Allium cepa). Because a plant cell has cell wall which is to maintain

How do solutions of various salt concentrations influence osmosis in relation to an onion cell? Materials: (per student group): red onion epidermis forceps‚ dropper distilled water NaCl solution paper towels microscope slide cover slip Procedure 1. Make a wet mount of the red onion epidermis. 2. Examine under low power. When you have a clear view of several cells‚ switch to high power. Make a labeled drawing (cell wall‚ membrane‚ cytosol) of your cells. This

The effect of different temperature on the cell respiration. Introduction： Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds in cells to form ATP‚and then release waste products. The process of cell respiration can take place in the presence or absence of oxygen. In either case‚the first stage of cell respiration is glycolysis.The effect of temperature on cell respiration mainly depends on the effect of temperature on of enzyme activity.Generally speaking in a certain

POTENTIAL OF CELL SAP OF PLANT EPIDERMAL CELLS Aim: The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the effects that the molarity of the sucrose solution and distilled water have on the plasmolisys of epidermal cells of a red onion. Hypothesis: Taking in consideration osmosis‚ and my knowledge about it‚ my prediction is that as the molarity of the solution under which the cells are exposed will increase‚ also the amount of plasmolysed cells‚ counted from amount of undamaged cells taken into

bottom with the root cap‚ then the zone of cell division next is the zone of cell elongation‚ and at the top of the root is the zone of differentiation. To figure out what section of the root has the highest number of cells in mitosis we did an experiment where we found out cells that are closer to the root tip are more likely to be doing mitosis than the cells that are further away from the root tip. Through the experiment‚ we looked at the zone of cell division‚ which is

PLASMOLYSIS IN ONION CELLS (_ALLIUM CEPA_) I. INTRODUCTION Plasmolysis is the process in plant cells in which the cytoplasm is separated from the cell wall as a result of water loss through osmosis. Osmosis is a type of passive transport involving movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane. 1.

Osmosis coursework Aim: To investigate the effect of different concentration of a sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and pear pieces of a given size. Define osmosis: Osmosis is a net movement of water/ solution molecules from a region of high concentrated area to a region of lower concentrated area through a semi-permeable membrane which lets smaller molecules such as water through but does not allot bigger molecules like glucose to pass through. The molecules
