In the “Crush the Can” lab‚ we took an aluminum can‚ heated up some water in it‚ and turned it upside down into a tub of ice-cold water‚ crushing it with pressure. The movement of gas particles was a crucial component of this experiment. After the can was placed onto the hot plate‚ as the water heated up‚ the gas particles inside of the can started to move faster due to the relationship between temperature and the average kinetic energy‚ or average motion energy‚ of the gas particles. As the temperature

In order to read DNA‚ it must be sequenced. This sequencing uses electrophoresis‚ a technique that separates sections of DNA that differ by a base. Electrophoresis used to be done manually‚ but was error prone and time consuming. Now‚ automatic sequencing machines are used. A technician begins the process by pouring gel between two glass plates that are set less than half a millimeter apart. After the gel is set up‚ DNA is put into each of the ninety-six lanes. The DNA sections then move through

Quantifying the COX1 Gene within the Mitochondrial DNA of a Potato Introduction Respiration is a very important process for every living organism. While it is typically thought of as breathing in oxygen‚ and exhaling carbon dioxide‚ like all things‚ it must take place at the cellular level. The electron transport chain is responsible for cellular respiration. The process uses four complexes; the fourth is cytochrome c oxidase. Cytochrome C oxidase is responsible for the reduction of oxygen to water

Fast Plants Lab Background Gregor Mendel is an Australian monk‚ who worked in a garden at a monastery. He experimented with pea plants‚ and soon became known as the father of genetics. The reason he studied pea plants was because they grow quickly‚ the traits can be easily observed‚ and the plant is easy to pollinate. Mendel’s method was to control the pollination of the pea plants and create offspring’s of the two plants that were pollinated together. Using self-pollination and cross pollination

over aims has gained momentum” (Noll‚ 2011). This statement has led many Americans to ask the question‚ “Should schooling be based on Social Experiences”? Philosophers such as John Dewey would answer yes to this sensitive question‚ while holding the opinion that the school is the testing ground to prove that education can fuse knowledge with experience. Some may further hold the view that a child-focused approach to education puts credence on the needs and interests of the learners. British philosopher

Lab 6: Isolation of Chromosomal DNA Mic 428L/ Section 001 Introduction: In biological research to address and eventually answer a multitude of questions‚ usually involves isolating chromosomal DNA. The purpose in this particular lab was to isolate chromosomal DNA from mutants grown and observed in lab 5 and then digest the DNA using a restriction enzyme. The fragments left from digestion will be ligated and then transformed into a strain of E. Coli DH5αλpir containing the pir gene pi product
