Side By Side Endoplasmic Reticulum
2,193 words
... e detoxification processes by which enzymes
act on chemicals and drugs to change their
structure and reduce their toxicity. The smooth
endoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle stores
calcium ions that function in muscle contraction.
The Golgi apparatus is composed of flattened
membranous sacs, containing cisternae, that are
stacked on each other like dinner plates. The
Golgi apparatus modifies, packages, and
distributes proteins and lipids manufactured by
the rough and smooth endoplasmic ret...

Determining Rates of Photosynthesis Through
Chloroplasts 2) Purpose = measure the rate of
photosynthesis in chloroplasts. 3) The chloroplast
will be subjected to two experimental conditions-
light, and the absence of light, using a
spectrophotometer to determine the amount of DPIP
reduced at specific time intervals under each
condition. 4) I predict the amount of DPIP reduced
will vary for each condition and increase over the
time intervals. I hypothesize under the light
condition the amount of ...

... erection Patrick Haney left behind a legacy of
guidelines for empowering people with AIDS. 1.
Modify their mindset that they are not a victim,
only people with AIDS. A perception of being a
victim fosters passivity and a sense of
helplessness. 2. Focus more on opportunities for
making the most of a bad situation and less on the
fatalistic aspects of the disease. 3. Assist them
to find people who can provide them with support
and they themselves must be caring and supportive.

... m is used to breakdown glycogen to glucose.
The endoplasmic reticulum is versatile and grows
and shrinks according to the cell's activities.
Chloroplasts which are found in plant cells are
used in the process of photosynthesis. They fall
into the category of plastids but they are
differentiated in that they contain chlorophyll.
These organelles produce chemical reactions from
the energy that the sun gives them. The Golgi
complex's structure is made up of many flattened
membranes sacs that ar...

Carbon Dioxide Hydrogen Ions

Photosynthesis is the process by which organisms
that contain the pigment chlorophyll convert light
energy into chemical energy which can be stored in
the molecular bonds of organic molecules.
Photosynthesis powers almost all trophic chains
and food webs on the Earth. The net process of
photosynthesis is described by the following
equation: 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + Light Energy = C 6 H
12 O 6 + 6 O 2 This equation simply means that
carbon dioxide from the air and water combine in
the presence of sunli...

Chemical Chemical Reactions CHEMICAL REACTIONS
Chemical reactions are the heart of chemistry.
People have always known that they exist. The
Ancient Greeks were the firsts to speculate on the
composition of matter. They thought that it was
possible that individual particles made up matter.
Later, in the Seventeenth Century, a German
chemist named George Ernst Stahl was the first to
speak of chemical reaction, specifically,
combustion. He said that a substance called
phlogiston escaped into the ai...

Fatty Acids Petri Dish
4,956 words
Plan The initial variable to be considered will be
the effect that caffeine and temperature has on
the heart beat and if it has a direct or indirect
effect on the daphnia's lifespan. If there is
enough time to consider a second variable however,
the effects of a temperature or alcohol on the
daphnia's body system will also be considered
alongside the initial variable of caffeine. These
will then be slotted into the same graph which
will show us how the figure correspond to the
results. In order ...

Environmental Protection Agency Ozone Depletion
1,137 words
The ozone layer diminishes more each year. As the
area of polar ozone depletion (commonly called the
ozone hole) gets larger, additional ultraviolet
rays are allowed to pass through. These rays cause
cancer, cataracts, and lowered immunity to
diseases. 1 What causes the depletion of the ozone
layer? In 1970, Crutzen first showed that nitrogen
oxides produced by decaying nitrous oxide from
soil-borne microbes react catalytically with ozone
hastening its depletion. His findings started
research on...

Lab: T: 12: 15 - 3: 05 INTRODUCTION: An enzyme is
any one of many specialized organic substances,
composed of polymers of amino acids that act as
catalysts to regulate the speed of the many
chemical reactions involved in the metabolism of
living organisms. The word enzyme comes from the
Greek phrase? en yeast? . Many scientists who
studied enzymes in t...

You Nuclear Energy Nuclear Energy You are watching
the control panels and gages for rector two.
Sitting comely you think about how easy your job
is. It is a joke! All day you sit around and watch
the gages for reactor number two just to make sure
they maintain their settings. You dont even need
to look at the gages either because a computer
automatically regulates them without you. Life is

Hydrogen Bomb Nuclear Fusion
2,740 words
Fusion reactions are inhibited by the electrical
repulsive force that acts between two positively
charged nuclei. For fusion to occur, the two
nuclei must approach each other at high speed to
overcome the electrical repulsion and attain a
sufficiently small separation (less than
one-trillionth of a centimeter) that the
short-range strong nuclear force dominates. For
the production of useful amounts of energy, a
large number of nuclei must under go fusion: that
is to say, a gas of fusing nuclei m...

TREATING ANAPHYLAXIS In the emergency setting,
anaphylaxis is a dangerous, life threatening
condition that must be treated in an aggressive
and timely fashion. Anaphylaxis is a condition
related to acute allergic reactions. Following the
body? s exposure to the offending allergen, there
are common systemic reactions. The most serious
reactions involve the respiratory and
cardiovascular systems, but the gastrointestinal,
dermatologic, and genitourinary systems are often
involved causing varied sy...
