  2. Eggshell membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eggshell_membrane

    Eggshell membrane is the clear film lining the chicken eggshell displayed. Eggshell membrane or shell membrane is the clear film lining eggshells, visible when one peels a boiled bird egg. Chicken eggshell membranes are used as a dietary supplement. Eggshell membrane is derived commercially from the eggshells of industrial processors.

  3. Chorioallantoic membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorioallantoic_membrane

    Here, the embryo is grown within the confines of the egg shell. In this method, fertilized eggs are rotated inside an incubator for three days in order to prevent the embryo from sticking to the membranes of the shell. A hole is then created on the eggshell and wrapped with a film to prevent dehydration and infections. The egg is then ...

  4. Osmosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmosis

    The process of osmosis over a semipermeable membrane.The blue dots represent particles driving the osmotic gradient. Osmosis (/ ɒ z ˈ m oʊ s ɪ s /, US also / ɒ s-/) [1] is the spontaneous net movement or diffusion of solvent molecules through a selectively-permeable membrane from a region of high water potential (region of lower solute concentration) to a region of low water potential ...

  5. Candling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candling

    Candling an egg. Candling is a method used in embryology to study the growth and development of an embryo inside an egg.The method uses a bright light source behind the egg to show details through the shell, and is so called because the original sources of light used were candles.

  6. Osmoreceptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmoreceptor

    If plasma osmolarity rises above 290 mOsmol/L, then water will move out of the cell due to osmosis, causing the neuroreceptor to shrink in size. Embedded into the cell membrane are stretch inactivated cation channels (SICs), which when the cell shrinks in size, open and allow positively charged ions, such as Na + and K + ions to enter the cell. [3]

  7. Animal embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_embryonic_development

    Depending on the animal species, the process can occur within the body of the female in internal fertilization, or outside in the case of external fertilization. The fertilized egg cell is known as the zygote. [2] [5] To prevent more than one sperm fertilizing the egg , fast block and slow block to polyspermy are used. Fast block, the membrane ...

  9. Osmotic pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmotic_pressure

    Osmosis in a U-shaped tube Osmotic pressure is the minimum pressure which needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of its pure solvent across a semipermeable membrane . [ 1 ] It is also defined as the measure of the tendency of a solution to take in its pure solvent by osmosis .
