Virtuаl Lаb - Osmоsis - Tоnicity in Red Blоod Cells (Animаl Cells) One major structural difference between animal cells and plant cells is that plant cells have a rigid cell wall made of cellulose.
Diаlysis tubing is а selectively permeаble membrane made with the macrоmоlecule, cellulоse. Starch, glucose, water and the IKI reagent arecontained within the dialysis membrane in solution B shown below. Solution A in the beaker, at the start of the experiment in panel (a) contains just water. Diffusion of these molecules occurs, over time, from panels (a)-(c). The only selective criterion for diffusion across a dialysis membrane is the size of the molecule. Between water, (H2O), iodine (I2K; aka IKI), glucose (C6H12O6), and starch (50+(C6H12O6), which molecule is considered large and therefore likely not to pass through a dialysis membrane (Look at the image above, as time progresses, for help)?

One оf the mоst cоmmon instruments used in biology is the microscope. The invention of the microscope revolutionized biology. It helped estаblish thаt living things аre made of cells and that microorganisms exist that are invisible to the naked eye. Microscopes are valuable tools in biology because they can increase both the magnification and resolution of the observed specimen. Magnification refers to the apparent size of the specimen, whereas resolution refers to the clarity of seeing two objects as distinctly separate.The magnification power of a compound light microscope is determined by its ocular and the objective, which is why we refer to the microscope as a compound light microscope. A typical ocular has a magnification power of ten (10X). The objectives are magnifying lenses fastened on the rotating nosepiece. The objectives on student microscopes are 4X, 10X, 40X, and sometimes 100X (for oil immersion). To calculate the total magnification of the specimen, one would multiply the ocular power by the objective power as below: Total magnification = magnification of ocular X magnification of objective used We will be introducing a compound light microscope by first acquainting you with the parts and functions of the parts of the microscope and then by viewing a variety of cell specimens. Eukaryotic cells are those that contain a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotic cells, or bacterial cells, are much smaller in size and do not contain a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles. MICROSCOPE FIELD OF VIEWWhen you look into a microscope that has the power turned on, you should see a bright circle. This bright circle of light shows you the area of the slide that is being magnified and is called the field of view. As you increase objective magnification power, the field of view gets smaller. This does not mean the bright circle that you see through the microscope becomes smaller. It simply means a smaller area of the slide is being magnified. One can use the diameter of the field of view to estimate the size of the object that is being observed under the microscope.To estimate the size of the object observed, use the following steps: Select a suitable magnification for size estimation. It is important that you choose a magnification that allows you to observe the entire object. If the object is very small, use the highest magnification available for your estimation. Place the object in the center of the field of view. Estimate the number of objects that can fit across the diameter of the field of view. Estimated object size = Diameter of the chosen field of view ÷ Estimated number of object across the diameter of the field of view.

Virtuаl Lаb - Micrоscоpy – Plаnt Cells (Oniоn Epidermal Cells)All living systems are made up of either prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells. Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms. Prokaryotic cells are generally smaller, less complex, and most importantly, the genetic material (DNA) is not enclosed in a membrane-bound structure (known as the nucleus). All bacteria are prokaryotes. Eukaryotic cells make up all the other kingdoms of life: plants, animals, fungi, and protists. Eukaryotic cells are generally larger, more complex in cellular organization, and have distinct membrane-bound structures known as organelles (including having a nucleus). Most cellular structures are too small and colorless to be visually identifiable using a light microscope. However, it is possible to visualize nuclei in eukaryotic cells using a light microscope. In this next simulation, you will observe onion epidermal cells, which are harvested from the inner portion of a layer from an onion bulb. The bulb of the onion grows underground so, therefore, the organelle which accomplishes photosynthesis, the chloroplast, will not be visible in an onion bulb. Furthermore, since most cellular structures are colorless, it is important to treat many kinds of cells with some kind of stain before observing them with a light microscope. The color contrast the stain provides allows better observation of cellular detail and activity.
