Short Note on Mitochondria

May 16, 2023May 16, 2023 - by Jaishree Gorane - Leave a Comment

Mitochondria, the ‘Powerhouse of the cell’, are double-membrane organelles found in eukaryotic organisms. They function as the cell’s digestive system and play an important role in energy production through oxidative phosphorylation. With their unique structure and multiple functions, mitochondria regulate metabolism, promote cell growth, detoxify ammonia, induce apoptosis and maintain calcium ion balance, making them essential for cellular activities.

Endocytosis and Exocytosis – Differences , Similarities ,Roles, Steps , Types

April 26, 2023October 6, 2023 - by Jaishree Gorane - Leave a Comment

Endocytosis and Exocytosis are cellular processes used to move molecules in and out of cells, respectively. Endocytosis involves the formation of a vesicle to engulf and transport molecules into the cell, while exocytosis involves the fusion of a vesicle with the plasma membrane to release molecules out of the cell. These processes play important roles in nutrient uptake, waste elimination, cell communication etc.

What is Endocytosis – Class 9

April 22, 2023October 6, 2023 - by Jaishree Gorane - 2 Comments.

Endocytosis allows cells to take in external materials by forming vesicles that fuse with the cell membrane. This process is vital for nutrient uptake and immune function. There are three steps and three types of Endocytosis. Phagocytosis engulfs particles, while Pinocytosis takes up fluids and solutes. Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis uses specific receptors to target and internalise molecules.

Endocytosis -Definition, Mechanism, Types, Examples

April 20, 2023April 26, 2023 - by Jaishree Gorane - 5 Comments.

Endocytosis is a cellular process by which cells absorb molecules and particles from the external environment by engulfing them within a vesicle. There are three main types of endocytosis – phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and receptor-mediated endocytosis. Endocytosis plays a crucial role in nutrient uptake, immune defence and cellular signalling. Examples of endocytosis include the uptake of bacteria by immune cells and the absorption of nutrients by intestinal cells.

Components of Xylem

March 24, 2023March 24, 2023 - by Jaishree Gorane - 9 Comments.

Xylem is a vital plant tissue responsible for the transport of water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves. It is made up of several components, including tracheids, vessel elements, fibers and parenchyma cells. Tracheids and vessel elements form long tubes that allow for efficient water transport, while fibers provide structural support. Parenchyma cells help with storage and metabolic functions.

15 Difference between Xylem and Phloem

March 23, 2023December 23, 2023 - by Jaishree Gorane - 2 Comments.

Xylem and phloem are vital plant tissues with different tasks. Xylem transports water and nutrients upwards from the roots, while the phloem transports sugars from the leaves to other parts of the plant. Their composition, flow direction, location, transport mechanism, speed of movement, response to injury, fibres, distribution, movements and roles within plants provide fascinating insights.

Xylem – Definition , Structure, Components (Types), Functions And Importance

March 19, 2023April 2, 2023 - by Jaishree Gorane - 11 Comments.

Xylem is a specialized tissue in vascular plants that transports water and minerals from roots to the rest of the plant. It is composed of tracheids, vessel elements, xylem parenchyma, xylem fibers and xylem rays. Water transport is driven by root pressure and transpiration pull. Xylem provides structural support, stores nutrients and transports signaling molecules. Its transport mechanism is a combination of physical and biological factors.

Blood Vessels Diagram

March 7, 2023March 20, 2023 - by Jaishree Gorane - 3 Comments.

The blood vessels diagram shows the structure of arteries and veins. Arteries have a thick tunica media layer to handle the high-pressure blood flow while veins have a thinner tunica media and a larger lumen to accommodate a higher volume of blood. the smallest blood vessels have thin endothelial cell walls and a narrow lumen that allows for the exchange of nutrients and waste products with pericytes and red blood cells. A neatly labeled diagram makes it easy to understand.
