Active and passive transport move oxygen, water, and nutrients into cells and remove waste. Active transport requires a chemical energy because it moves from lower concentration to areas of higher concentration. It uses ATP to pump the molecules against the concentration, which requires cellular of solute. Passive transport moves from areas at a higher concentration to low concentrations, so it doesn’t require energy. Active transport takes place in the membranes of both the mitochondria and…
There are various models that describe the passage of molecules across membranes. In order to rule out the effect of the size of the passage, it is assumed that the solutes will be uncharged and spherical. There are size-selective models that are used to analyze experimental data. These models are the one- or two- pore analysis and the normal or lognormal pore distribution modes. Previous analysis has shown that the heteroporous equations had similar results and the homoporous equations were…
The rate of osmosis is affected by temperature. Contrary to the results obtained in this lab, warmer temperatures speed up the rate of osmosis. In our lab, our results showed that the room temperature water was the optimal temperature for osmosis, followed by cold water, then the hot water. The prune in Beaker A, the control group and room temperature water, increased in weight approximately 110%, from an original weight of 6.8 grams. The water in Beaker A also remained the most consistent in…
to be selectively permeable which means that the cell allows only certain objects and substances in and out of the cell (McKinley, O’Loughlin, & Bidle, 2015). Substances are moved across the cell membrane through a process called diffusion. Osmosis is a type of diffusion that involves the movement of water across the cell membrane from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration (McKinley, O’Loughlin, & Bidle, 2015). There are three types of concentrations of solutes: isotonic,…
6. Why are behavior theories important to include in campaign development? (10 points) Behavior theories help guide campaigns in a way to change a behavior. Each theory is different, so it is important to implement the correct theory that fits the program. Behavior theories are able to connect on a personal level, interpersonal level, as well as a community level. Using a behavior theory during a campaign is more likely to see results in behavior. The theory helps fine previous benefits to the…
Innovation is generally defined as the process of change or creation in order to generate optimum effectiveness amongst products and ideas (Business.gov.au, 2015). In accordance to Business.gov.au (2015), it is suggested that the utilisation of innovative processes can increase the likelihood of a business or organisation’s success as it enhances more efficient work and higher quality performance and productivity. Within a business context, innovation may include the implementation of new ideas,…

Business organisations in modern day society are constantly on a lookout for new innovations that would contribute to the company’s drive for success. This of course is crucial in any business, as the use of these innovations can lead to a sustainable outcome. However achieving such competitive advantage is a challenge faced by most business organisations in their relative industry, especially when considering the high demand for cost friendly products that offer the same features as its…
have an overwhelming desire to succumb to the darkness, but that is not the human spirit. Humans know how to survive and in order to address and overcome adversity, you have to believe that better exists or that more can be achieved. Technological innovations and inventions did not evolve from the idea that what currently exists is all that exists. People thought and believed that there was more at stake, there were more efficient ways to do things and that” abundance” was achievable.…
driving force for innovation. IP 's are adverted as “ownership of the mind 's products”(Cooter, Ulen, 124); Intellectual property is secured by the law through patents, copyrights and trademarks; this protective screening allows individuals(inventors) the prospect of obtaining acknowledgment & financial payment from whatever they contrive or formulate. With the successful integration of intellectual property law; “the innovator need not fear that others will steal the innovation. Instead of…
