All living cells have the same cell structure, which is to say: plasma membrane, cytosol, ribosomes, and at least one chromosome. The plasma membrane is vital to the cell to be able to perform even basic functions. The plasma membrane is made up of fats and proteins (Editorial Board, 2012). The basic function of the plasma membrane is to be able to allow certain molecules to pass in and out of the cell. The fat helps to allow food and waste to pass through the cell, while the protein serves as

affected by the relative concentration of enzyme and substrate in the reaction mixture. This experiment investigates how the changes in temperature, pH and enzyme concentration affect the enzymatic activity of catecholase in potato juice extract (Biology 107 Lab Manual, 2011-2012 ed.) The presence of polyphenoloxides (PPO) in fruits and vegetables is one of the causes of change in color. Color is one of the most important attributes of food both for its aesthetic value and for quality. Minimally

Due date: November 14, 2012 Biology 102: Stem Cells Stem Cells in Cancer Every day many people suffer from different kinds of cancers. Many of them suffer from Lung cancer, Skin cancer, or even cancer in the brain (tumor). However, many of them don’t survive because the fact is that many times it’s too late to save them with treatment that accurate today. Recently, there has been new research about cancer that could actually save more people from cancer. Michael Clarke and Robert Weinberg
