(a)

Summary Introduction

To evaluate:

An experiment was designed and conducted to analyze the uptake of sucrose in the plant cells. (a) The hypothesis for the decrease in pH, if plant cells are immersed in a sucrose solution. (b) The result obtained, if an inhibitor of the ATP regeneration was added in the beaker once the pH reached a steady level.

Introduction:

The plant cells were immersed in a sucrose solution in a beaker. The movement of the sucrose and water ions will take place by the process of diffusion and osmosis respectively in the beaker. The hypothesis given by the scientists proposes the movement of the hydrogen and sucrose ions inside the plant cells through the plasma membrane with the help of the co-transporter protein channels.

To evaluate: The hypothesis for the decrease in pH, if the plant cells are immersed in a sucrose solution.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The result that was obtained, if an inhibitor of ATP regeneration was added in the beaker once the pH reached a steady level.

What are biofertilizers and mention the significance
PCBs and River Otters: Otters in Washington State’s Green-Duwamish River have high levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in their livers. PCBs can bind to the estrogen receptors in animals and disrupt the endocrine system of these otters. The PCBs seem to increase the estrogen to androgen ratio, skewing the ratio toward too much estrogen.     How would increased estrogen affect the river otter population? Based on your reading of the materials in this unit, what factors can affect fertility in humans?   Explain how each of the factors affecting human fertility that you described can disrupt the human endocrine system to affect reproduction.
Other than oil and alcohol, are there other liquids you could compare to water (that are liquid at room temperature)? How is water unique compared to these other liquids? What follow-up experiment would you like to do, and how would you relate it to your life?
