Plants utilize nutrition in the form of inorganic minerals for growth and development. Plant nutrients can be divided into two groups and these are macronutrients and micronutrients. Macronutrients are elements required by plants in relatively large quantities and these include Carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), phosphorus (P), potassium(K), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S), magnesium (Mg)…

To analyze the Glycogen and Protein concentration of a rat liver cell sample, utilizing Iodine solution, Diphenylamine reagent, Biuret reagent and by using heat through boiling. Introduction This experiment was designed to exemplify and cipher the distribution of RNA, DNA, protein and Glycogen between the karyon and cytolplasim of the liver cell. The liver is…

Picornaviruss are little positive strand RNA viruses with individual stranded genomic RNA capable of doing assorted diseases in worlds ( Porter, 1993 ) . The picornavirus RNA genome has a 3 ‘ poly ( A ) tail and a virus encoded atom Vpg at the 5 ‘ terminal. Unlike other RNA genome viruses, picornavirus does…

Over the past decennary, G protein-coupled receptors were assumed to be chiefly as monomeric polypeptides. This position was based on the monophasic binding belongingss of most counter ligands for single GPCRs. However, increasing grounds has shown that GPCRs exist as dimeric and/or multimeric constructions and can be either homomeric or heteromeric ( Milligan 2009 )…

The aim of the experiment that was carried out was to see, at what temperature and in which standard solution, does the amount of dye left in the boiling tube had the highest percentage transmission. Beetroot was used for the experiment because it was easier to see the dye after the practical was completed. Putting…

Proteins are made up of amino acids. There are 20 amino acids commonly found in biological materials. These can be divided into 2 groups, indispensable and dispensable. The indispensable amino acids cannot be produced by the body so are required in the diet. The dispensable amino acids can be produced by the body so are…

Antibodies function as mediators of specific humoral immunity by engaging diverse molecular and cellular effector mechanisms that serve to eliminate the antigen. They are produced by B lymphocytes and plasma cells in the lymphoid organs and the bone marrow, but they perform their effector functions at sites distant from their production. Like the T cell…
