Effect of pH on Green Pea Germination Objective: To determine how pH affects the germination of green peas and to examine the degree of germination within each pH level. We will do this by using various buffer solutions (along with distilled water) to grow green peas. Hypothesis: We expected that the group of peas that encountered a pH of 7 to have the most and highest degree of germination. Materials: tap water buffer solutions pH 3‚5‚ 7‚ 9‚11 distilled

DNA DNA‚ or Deoxyribonucleic Acid‚ is described‚ in Encarta Encyclopedia as a genetic material of all cellular organisms and most viruses. DNA carries the information needed to direct protein synthesis and replication. Protein synthesis is the production of the proteins needed by the cell or virus for its activities and development. Replication is the process by which DNA copies itself for each descendant cell or virus‚ passing on the information needed for protein synthesis. In most cellular

Background DNA is an abbreviation for deoxyribonucleic acid‚ but it is usually known by its initials alone. DNA is found in practically all living organisms‚ and it is now known to carry genetic information from one cell to the next‚ and from one generation to the next. The units of inheritance‚ called genes‚ are actually sections of the DNA molecule. Nuclei of the cells of higher organisms contain thread-like bodies called chromosomes‚ which consist of DNA‚ wrapped around proteins. So understanding how

Ways in which we could help the child is through specialised care for example using treatments and medication suited to their needs to make them well or to improve the quality of life. Also the child could have interaction with other children who suffer from the same illness as them to help them socialise

chromosomes are very long compact coils of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) that store all the information that the body inbeds such as how one looks and functions. This paper will first describe the structure of DNA; second discuss how the structure of DNA allows it to serve as the basis for inheritance‚ third examine how meiosis allows DNA to be divided into gametes and finally‚ describe how this relates to Gregor Mendel’s patterns of inheritance. The structure of DNA DNA is a thread formed by two strands
