The temperature of water was determined by a thermometer. 1 cm stripped ends of the wires was hooked into the input posts on the back of the impendence converter. Lab tutor module was started after. B. Baseline heart rate The top of the container was covered with foil and the animal was allowed to sit quietly for 10 min. The trace was examined by pressing start. After that the baseline or the controlled

INTRODUCTION During collisions involving two bodies‚ equal and opposite forces are set up between them. These impact forces influence the subsequent motion of the bodies. Momentum of the system (consisting of both bodies) is preserved if both bodies are free to move in space. This is because there is no external forces act on the system. The forces acting between the bodies during the small interval of time when they are in contact cause changes in the velocities of each separate body. An exact determination

Coli bacteria. We began the lab by first obtaining two sterile microcentrifuge tubes‚ one was label “GFP+” while the other one was “GFP–” because this one served as a control meaning nothing goes inside this one. With gloves on 25 microliters competent cells‚ which is e. Coli bacteria

Title: Confirming the Presence of Fermentation in the Conversion of Milk to Kefir Authors: Michael Ahrens‚ Nicholas Fiore‚ Garrett Hages‚ Melissa Cullom University of Kansas‚ Biol 402‚ Fall 2014‚ 3:00pm room 6040 Abstract: In this experiment milk was fermented into Kefir‚ then a series of tests were used to confirm that fermentation actually occurred. The tests used to confirm the fermentation were a gas production test‚ pH test‚ Gram stain‚ and turbidity test. The results showed during the conversion

Polypeptides‚ better known as proteins‚ carry out nearly all of a cell’s functions. A protein is made up of at least one or more amino acid polymers. The necessity of proteins for life is unequivocal‚ not only do they help to form the structures of cells but they act as enzymes in reactions of the body1. Enzymes are biological catalysts that lower the amount of activation energy needed in carrying out biochemical reactions1. Enzymes are responsible for almost every reaction that occurs in a cell

Abstract In this experiment‚ the preferences of mealworms towards lighted and dark environments were tested. The main question posed was whether the behavior of the mealworms would be affected by the variable of light‚ and whether they would move towards or away from the light source (taxis). We placed ten mealworms into two adjoining containers and tried to simulate the effects of above ground and underground by exposing the mealworms to minimal amounts of light in one of the containers (underground)

root tip of a plant spend a comparatively long time in the mitotic phase‚ whereas those cells comprising slow-growing tissues would spend most of their lives in interphase. Non-dividing cells remain in interphase and never enter the mitotic phase. (Lab Manual 64) Interphase is the synthesis of biological molecules including DNA and duplicated DNA with associated proteins. These comprise the chromatin that begin to condense toward the end of this phase‚ but are not yet visible. The nucleoplasm

higher resolution and more light‚ you need to put more than one mirror together and make them work together‚” explains Robert Angel‚ a professor of astrology at the University of Arizona (Giant Mirrors to Capture the Universe). Just as we learned in our lab‚ we need a good source of light for something to become clear. The mirrors that are used for the telescope cause the light to be reflected off of one mirror onto the other which then create a clear image from the large convex lens. “Because these

Objective: The objective of the lab is to separate the caffeine samples we are using‚ using thin layer chromatography. The solvent we are using for the separation is 3:1 mixture of Chloroform and Acetone. Principle: Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is an important technique that is useful for separating organic compounds. TLC is often used to monitor the progress of organic reactions and to check the purity of products. Separations in Thin layer chromatography involve distributing a mixture of
