Cell Membrane
Microscopic details of cell membrane by Catherine Boudreau Cell membranes are crucial to cell proliferation and survival. The cell membrane is not only a protective barrier that surrounds the cell but it also allows passage of essential molecules to and from the cell. The cell membrane is made of two key co... More> Structure and function of the cell membrane by Heather Lyon Cells, whether it is animal, plant or bacteria, have many different parts or organelles. Each organelle has a different and important function within the cell. If any of the parts fail then the cell ceases to function and it begins to die. One of th... More>
	Osmosis and cell membranes by Michael Gotama Osmosis can't be explained separate from membrane cell because osmosis is the diffusion of water across membrane. Although osmosis is kind of diffusion but there are a big differences between diffusion and osmosis. For a short diffusion is particle ... More> Membranes and cell diffusion: understanding the phenomenon by Michael Gotama Diffusion is the movement of particle from outside to inside through a membrane cell of living thing, vice-versa, the movement of the particle is from an area which has a high concentration gradient to an area which has a low concentration gradient....

What are aquaporins and how do they work? by Melody Clearwater Water is the most essential molecule of life. Because of water’s physical properties, living organisms depend on it to survive. Water’s neutral pH and polarity make it a universal solvent for many of the solutes that life dep... More> Basic cellular anatomy and physiology by Jennifer Vose The cell theory states that all living things are made of one or more cells, cells are the basic units of structure and function for living things, and cells can only arise from pre-existing cells. The cell, therefore, is integral to an understandin... More>
