We are able to visualize‚ feel‚ smell‚ and hear the world around us due to a system called the sensory system. All around the surface of our body we have detectors that are known as receptors. These receptors‚ in the form of cells‚ are specialized to capture specific forms of energy- whether heat‚ light‚ chemical‚ or mechanical (1). The environmental cues that are detected by our receptors on the surface of our body are then transformed into electrical signals‚ or nerve impulses‚ that can be sent

Material Roderick Tabigne Respiratory System Lab – Week Six Introduction The respiratory system consists of the upper respiratory tract (the nasal cavity‚ pharynx‚ larynx‚ trachea‚ and bronchi) and the lower respiratory tract (the lungs). As you learn about the various diseases that affect the respiratory system‚ it is important for you to understand the structures that can be affected by disease. Complete this lab to become familiar with a healthy system and to identify diseases related to both

Rats are various medium sized rodents. "True rats" are members of the genus Rattus‚ the most important of which to humans are the black rat‚ Rattus rattus‚ and the brown rat‚ R. norvegicus.

love the peace of mind knowing there weren’t rats lurking in your walls? Rats create many problems in the world and I believe we should eliminate all rats. One reason rats need to be eliminated is they spread diseases. According to CDC (Centers for Disease Control) rats spread hemmoragic fever‚ Lassa fever‚ Leptospinosis‚ and many more. Having rats running around infected with possibly fatal diseases is far too dangerous. To emphasize the deadly effect rats have‚ we can look at the Black Plague‚ in

In this lab we tested to see if the amount of sunlight exposed to the basil seed‚ would affect the growth. The null hypothesis for this experiment was that there would be no statistical difference between the green‚ yellow‚ and red basil seeds’ growth. Three alternate hypotheses are: If we expose the green seed to 48 hours of sunlight and the yellow seed to 24 hours of sunlight‚ then the green seed with grow more than the yellow. The opposite of this hypothesis would alternate 2. Another alternate

Conclusion I predicted that if the decolorization of DPIP is caused by photosynthesis and not cell respiration and spinach extract containing chloroplasts and mitochondria is incubated with DPIP‚ then the rate of DPIP decolorization should be higher if in bright light verses dark light because DPIP is reduced by photosynthesis and not by the mitochondria or any other cellular function. If DPIP was only decolorized by chloroplasts‚ then the percent transmittance of chloroplast suspensions would be
