Granule cell

Nucleus The Nucleus is an example of a command centre found inside a eukaryotic cell; it’s usually the most prominent organelle, yet it occupies only 10% of the total volume of the cell. If this cell did not have a Nucleus, it would be defined as a prokaryote cell, however if the Nucleus was damaged and not repaired, the cell would simply die. The cell nucleus is enclosed within a double membrane (contains an Inner and Outer Nuclear Membrane) called the Nuclear Envelope, which separates the…

and a lighter central region. The two dark lines suggests the presence of the protein on either side. The lighter central region suggests the presence of phospholipids. The dark grainy appearance could be the ribosomes. Ribosomes appear as dark granules in the cytoplasm. Measured by rule: approximately 1 mm actual size 10 nm (image size)/(actual size)= Change 1 mm to nanometres. 1mm=1000000 nm 1000000nm/10nm= 100,000 Data based questions a. Nuclear pores. b. The pores transport…

mechanism of fusion of Egg and sperm in human? ANSWER: Gametogenesis is the formation of the sex cells in multicellular eukaryotes. The word Gameto mean the gametes and genesis for formation of . Gametes typically come in male (sperm) and female (eggs). In human , the process involves two specialized cell divisions. The purpose is to create a haploid cell able to be well-suited with another haploid cell. Sperms is formed by the process called spermatogenesis and eggs are formed by the process…

Porter et al., 1945 using cells derived from chick embryos tissues with the aid of electron microscopy examined into detail the structural outline of the cell and organelles including: mitochondrion, Golgi Bodies and endoplasmic reticulum (Porter et al., 1945). This then created an avenue for enquiry into how these compartments within the cell interacts, how molecules move from one compartment to the other. In order to address concerns…

transport in human melanocytes (1). Located in the basal layer of the epidermis, melanocytes produce melanin by inserting granules of melanin into melanosomes (2). Melanosomes are the site of synthesis, storage, and transport of melanin pigments that reside in the matrix…

(IV) Porous Ceramics The concept behind nearly inert, micro-porous bioceramics (type2) is the ingrowths of tissue into pores on the surface or throughout the implant. The increased interfacial area between the implant and the tissues result in an increased inertial resistance to movement of the device in the tissue. The interface is established by the living tissue in the pores. This method of attachment is often termed biological fixation. It is capable of withstanding more complex stress…

efficiently change the internal organization of the cell, and capture organelles through the cytosol. Intermediate filaments are made up of the protein keratin. Their primary function is to strengthen the internal structure of a cell. Microfilaments are the smallest among the three cytoskeletal filaments. They consist of protein actin. Microfilaments are dynamic structures that can rapidly disassemble or assemble themselves, and thus microfilaments enable the cell to move efficiently. Cilia and…

In Aristotle’s view, everything in this world can be categorized. Living beings include plants and animal. The plant has nutritive soul and the animal process both nutritive soul and perceptive soul. If we discuss animal further, we can divide animal into rational animal, which is human, and non-rational animal. The essential feature of “being an animal” is perception. From the Aristotle Introductory Reading: “413b2: What makes something an animal is primarily perception.” Perception is…

Genetic Engineering is the modification of an organism 's genetic composition by artificial means, often involving the transfer of specific traits, or genes, from one organism into a plant or animal of an entirely different species. With this new, rapidly growing, technology we are now able to do things that we once thought were impossible. In Ethics and the New Genetics, the Dalai Lama addresses problems that we need to consider as we continue to explore this microscopic world that we have…

within a cell, they can be expressed in response to external stimuli. This external stimuli can be sub lethal heat shock (SLHS) hence the name heat shock proteins (Baneyx, F. 2008), this stimulus causes more of the proteins to be produced (Pugsley, A. 1989). In addition to being expressed due to SLHS they can also be expressed in response to amino acid analogs, heavy metals…
