Gram Negative Petri Dishes
1,384 wordsAbstract/Summary: Changing our focus from the properties and functions that take place within the cell to the actual cell itself, we observed three specific bacterial types within this lab: Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, and cyanobacteria. We closely observed the features of cyanobacteria and were able to differentiate them from other bacteria. We specifically observed gloeocapsa, merismopedia, anabaena, and oscillator. In addition to this we observed the different characteristi...

No significant difference in insulin concentration was observed when incubation's were carried out at 5. 5 -mmol / l medium glucose concentration (15816 gU/ml, gU/ml, n = 6) or at a 25 -mmol / l ambient medium glucose concentration (146. 2 bn 22. 1 gU/ml, n = 6). (Assay et. al. , 2001) Method 2: As a result of their ability to differentiate into many different cell types, one can dissect the complex network of transcription factor genes regulating tissue-specifi...

Some of these enzymes break down proteins, others attack fats, and still others disassemble the nucleic acids that make up DNA and RNA (Bourne, 1992, p. 123). Lynosomes don't always work right. When they fail, the result can be catastrophic disease. In Tay-Sachs disease, for example, victims have inherited a faulty gene, which leads to a defective enzyme or no enzyme at all. As a result certain undigested molecules accumulate in the lysosomes, gradually lead...

Birth Control Pills Benign Tumors
2,111 wordsWhat is Cancer? Cancer is a group of many related diseases. All forms of cancer cause cells in the body to change and grow in an abnormal way. Normal body cells divide and grow in an orderly fashion. But cells changed by cancer can divide and grow out of control. This out-of-control-growth damages normal body tissues and disrupts the ability of organs to function, as they should. During the early years of a persons life, normal cells divide rapidly until adult size is reached. After that, normal...
