BIOL 2050: Concepts in Biology II

Learn how bioremediation works to treat contaminated environments and how microbes can help clean up pollutants. We evaluate multiple scenarios zeroing in on oil-degrading bacteria as a prime example of the process.

Explore the anatomy and function of muscle fibers, focusing on the critical role of the sarcolemma. Delve into the significance of myofibrils, sarcoplasm, and T-tubules. Understand the intricacies of muscle contraction and the cell's role in it.

Understand the essence of controlled experiments and the significance of control groups. Unpack the common misconceptions associated with experimental design. Grasp the key factors that make an experiment truly controlled.

Discover the role and location of Langerhans cells key components of the human immune system found in the skin. Learn about the different layers of the skin and where these cells predominantly reside. By the end of the video you'll know that Langerhans cells are mainly found in the Stratum Spinosum layer

Gain a clear understanding of chemical equilibrium, where reactant and product concentrations stay constant due to equal forward and reverse reaction rates. Dispel common misconceptions about equilibrium, such as concentration equality and reaction reversibility.
