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.

Xylem Diagram

A neatly labeled xylem diagram to understand xylem tissue. Xylem consists of vessel elements, tracheids, fibers and parenchyma cells each with unique functions in water and nutrient transport and structural support. Important features such as cytoplasm, the nucleus and bordered and simple pits are also shown in the diagram. Students can use this easy-to-draw diagram for their assignments and exams.

Components of Xylem

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.

How Amoeba Acquires its Food through the Process of Phagocytosis

March 2, 2023May 30, 2023 - by Jaishree Gorane - 6 Comments.

Amoeba, a single-celled organism, acquires its food through the process of phagocytosis. During this process Amoeba uses pseudopodia to engulf its prey and forms a membrane-bound phagosome which fuses with lysosomes to form a phagolysosome. The prey is then digested. Factors such as temperature, pH and food availability affect the efficiency of phagocytosis in amoeba.

How Lymph is Formed ?

March 1, 2023February 9, 2024 - by Jaishree Gorane - 5 Comments.

This article explains the formation of lymph, a colorless body fluid. It highlights that lymph originates as interstitial fluid, which collects in lymphatic capillaries, transforming into lymph. This fluid then passes through the lymphatic system, where it is filtered by lymph nodes before returning to the bloodstream. This process is essential for nutrient delivery, waste removal, and immune system support.

22 Differences Between Plasma and Serum

February 28, 2023December 23, 2023 - by Jaishree Gorane - 1 Comment

Plasma and serum are the two distinct components of blood that vary in definition, composition, and properties. Plasma comprises electrolytes, proteins, enzymes, hormones, metabolites, and clotting factors while serum is devoid of clotting factors. Both require different preparation methods, have clinical significance in disease diagnosis and treatment, and can be used for various purposes such as biomarker analysis, blood transfusions, and research studies. diffrence between plasma and serum explained for students to complete their assignments , homework and exams
