Wheat grass is a very rich source variety of essential of nutrients. It contains most of the vitamins, variety of minerals and other nutrients. a) Vitamin A: It enhances the skin shine and provides glow to skin and makes it disease and infection free. It helps to cure spots and improves the eyesight. It is also helpful in checking the eyes, nose, and throat disorders. It maintains hair and is helpful in fighting the problems of pollution. b) Vitamin B: It aids digestion. It is helpful in the…

Summary: All biological molecules contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. A carbohydrate (C,H,O) is a biological molecule consisting of hydrogen , carbon, and oxygen atoms exclusively. They are the building blocks for polysaccharides, larger more complex carbohydrates. An example of a carbohydrate is glucose (the energy source for plants). Carbohydrates are the source of short term energy in organisms. Proteins (C,H,O,N) are made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen on a base level. Proteins…

organisms include protists, plants, animals and fungi Eukaryotic cells are larger and more complex than prokaryotic cells. In addition to a nucleus, they contain many other internal structures (organelles), including mitochondria and chloroplasts. Importance to Evolution: Eukarya are important to evolution these cells are considered a milestone in the evolution of life, since eukarya include all complex cells. Organisms: Endosymbiosis Terms: involves an intimate…

things that make eukaryote cells to be eukaryote. Eukaryote cells consist of: mitochondria, Golgi, ER, vacuoles, chloroplasts, lysosomes, nucleus, etc. The organelles that a cell has might vary from the type of the cell. Unfortunately, not all the parts of the cell might be observed under the light microscope because only the large organelles can be seen, such as: nuclei, chloroplasts, vacuoles. Most of the eukaryotic cells are motile. The three mechanisms that make them so are: flagella, cilia,…

DESERT Deserts may be extremely hot and humid. There are actually some animals manage to survive in the desert . The way some animals survive in the desert is some burrow underground to stay cool. Kangaroos lick their forearm to stay cool. Deserts may be extremely hot but they can support plant life and. Location Every continent has a desert except Europe. The world's largest desert is the Sahara and it can found in Africa. Asia has small deserts compared to the Sahara. Australia is…

the ability to photosynthesize? Well, due to the bacterium being infected with a parasite, the parasite gave the bacterium the ability to transfer food from the chloroplasts to the alga through the exchange of genes. However, after some time had past, the three beings came collectively together to form the organelle called the chloroplast. By the process of evolution and adaptation to the symbiotic union, the plant species developed the cell…

food using sunlight such as plants. They acquire free energy through a process called photosynthesis. Through photosynthesis, sunlight provides the required energy to build carbohydrates from CO2 and H2O. This entire process takes place in the chloroplast which contains chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the location that absorbs the sunlight and combines carbon dioxide and water in order to make sugar and oxygen. This process is exited through the stromata. In this experiment we want to know which…

Based on Mendel’s experimental observation and conclusion on pea plants, he proposed four postulates including one that each phenotypical characteristic are controlled by a pair of unit factors also known as alleles that separate independently in gametes. Although Mendel’s contribution to genetics isn’t wrong, there are some exceptions of inheritances that do not follow Mendel’s principles. Non-mendelian inheritance traits include maternal effects, epigenetics, and extranuclear genes. What makes…

Peroxisomes serve to produce hydrogen peroxide through oxidation, as well as break it down by converting it to water, or using the hydrogen peroxide to oxidize other organic compounds. They also produce energy by metabolizing fatty acids (Cooper, 2000). Peroxisomes execute various metabolic functions and create hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct from the process of oxidation. However, since the hydrogen peroxide created by the peroxisome is toxic, the organelle also produces an enzyme called…

meiosis and mitosis. There are 2 types of eukaryotic cell: plant and animal cells. They contain organelles such ribosomes, smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, nucleolus, centrioles, cell membrane, flagella, cilia, microtubules, chloroplast and lysosomes. Animal Cell: Plant Cell: The nucleus controls and stores genetic material. It manages the cells…
