Although these two cells share a lot of similarities there are also many differences between the common prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, however more specifically I will be exploring how the structure relates to the function of an animal cell and a non-photosynthetic prokaryotic cell, and it is explained that, “analysing a biological structure gives us clues about what it does and how it works” (Campbell et al: 2014, p.52). The structure and the function of a cell generally aren’t one without…

way of unnecessary fructose. Let’s take a look at exactly what’s in a McDonald’s ‘real’ fruit smoothie: Strawberry Banana Fruit Blend Strawberry puree, banana puree, water, sugar, concentrated apple juice, contains less than 1% of the following: Cellulose powder, natural (botanical source) and artificial flavors, xanthan gum, citric acid, colored with fruit and vegetable juice, pectin. They also add ice and low-fat yogurt for good measure. Does it taste good? Indeed. But so do hot…

Lesson 5: Structures, Functions and Roles of Biological Molecules and Enzyme Activity in Metabolism Biological Molecules/Macromolecules Plants produce their own food through photosynthesis. They manufacture mainly carbohydrates (glucose) as a source of food of many higher organisms in the food chain. It is one of the many biological molecules present in plants and needed by animals. Biological molecules are macromolecules composed of many monomers (polymer) connected through a covalent bond…

plant within the last 8000 years by initially using its’ seeds as a food source which are quite nutritious. It was later discovered that the plant can be used to make high-quality fibers due to being tough and rot-resistant. The fibers are made of cellulose and have been used to make durable items ranging from clothing and rope,…

Egyptian Cotton vs. Bamboo Bed Sheets Egyptian cotton or bamboo bed sheets, which is better? On one hand, Egyptian cotton sheets are well established as the epitome of luxury while bamboo sheets are still fairly new to the world of bedding. On the other hand, bamboo sheets have some unique properties, giving it a competitive edge. So, when you’re shopping for a new set of sheets, should you opt for Egyptian cotton or bamboo?

Since the beginning of time, people from all cultures, all religions and all regions of Mother Earth have contemplated and thought of how and why we came to existence. Some say reincarnation, some say God, some actually say aliens. (UFOSHOTSPOT.COM) But really, what it comes down to is something that most people can’t deny, the facts are evident. 46% of the American population believe in Evolution, “That poll found that a quarter of Americans believe humans and other species evolved "without…

than bacteria. At the same magnification, the elodea cells are much larger and easier to see than the lactobacillus cells. This increase in size is allowed because of the endomembrane system in eukaryotes like plants. The cell wall, composed of cellulose fibers, was the most visible part of the cell by…

The 1st generation is the easiest to come across, it is crops which contain cellulose and lignin. Traditionally these were the only organic sources tested to be used for biofuel. Switchgrass, corn and rapeseed are all a part of this category. The 2nd generation consists of by-products from the 1st generation organics sources, these…
