Experiment 1 Cyanobacteria Oxygen Production Through Photosynthesis Date Performed: September 2‚ 2014 I. Introduction a. Background Cyanobacteria or blue green algae are renowned for their tolerability and susceptibility even in wide range of environmental conditions‚ a characteristic of many primitive organisms. CNB are believed to be the agents of autotrophic origin of life thus they probably represent the survivors of the earliest photosynthetic plants‚ along with photosynthetic and chemosynthetic

Experiment 1: The Effects of Coal Mining Coal mining‚ particularly surface mining‚ leads to large areas of land being temporarily disturbed. The mine workings collect and conduct water that is in contact with the widespread pyrite‚ a mineral that produces iron and sulfuric acid when exposed to air and water. In this lab‚ you will see first-hand the reasons why mine drainage can be harmful to the local drainage system if left untreated. Materials: (3) 100 mL Beakers 1 tsp. Crushed pyrite 1 tsp. Activated

Experiment E: Post lab Natasha Buckiewicz (130361780) IA: Matt Halloran Due: November 26‚ 2014 1. This experiment followed GCP number 8 which is reduce derivatives. This experiment did not use unnecessary derivation since the reaction was not modified in any way. No additional reagents were required so it did not generate a lot of waste. 2. Safer solvents and auxilaries (GCP #5) was not used in this experiment since the experiment used a solvent to complete the reaction. The reaction used both

Enzymatic activities of bioactive washing powder Title: Investigation of the amalyse activity f bioactive washing powder Objective: To investigate the amalyse activity of the two brands of bioactive washing powder – “Super clean” and “Magic power”. Principal: Amalyse can catalyse the breakdown of starch into maltose. In this practical‚ solutions of the 2 washing powders will be filled into 2 identical wells on the starch agar plate separately. Starch will be broken down by the amylase disused

It would be nearly impossible to have the transportation of vesicles without kinesin to guide it. And without the transportation of these synaptic vesicles to release their neurotransmitters‚ there would be no movement in the cell at all. This experiment is so important because vesicle transport in neurons helps to identify many neurological disorders. One such example is a research on Drosophila. Since there is only one kinesin light gene in the subject‚ the mutants in that one chain gene exhibit

Experiment #4 (10/31/14) Lab Review Objective To introduce the basic molecules of life and to test for their presence in different substances. Introduction Macromolecules are in all forms of life. These organic compounds are carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins‚ and nucleic acids. These are monomers and they link together into long chains that form polymers. Different reagents can be used to find the presence of these macromolecules. Proteins are made of carbon‚ hydrogen‚ oxygen‚ nitrogen‚ and sometimes

If the solution appears milky than it is known as a precipitate reaction‚ meaning it is soluble‚ and that the ions separated and became surrounded by water. Precipitates in this experiment are electrically uncharged. To identify which compounds are

Locomotor activity The Locomotor activity (Pákáski and Kálmán‚ 2008) refers to the movement of spontaneous locomotor and exploratory activity in rodents. LMA is a simple performed measurement of behavior to detect the effects of drugs‚ genetic manipulation‚ etc.‚ on motor function by measuring horizontal‚ vertical and stereotyped behavior in rodents. Several measures of locomotor activity in rats‚ including the distance covered‚ movement time and speed of progression. This test is sensitive to

If these variables were not to be held constant than the findings of this experiment would be meaningless because there would be no way of desiring if the independent variable was the cause of the changes which were recorded In this experiment‚
