The purpose of the Picket Fence Free Fall Lab was to examine the acceleration of objects as they fall to earth. During free-fall the only force that should be acting upon the object is the earth’s gravitational pull (9.8 m/s/s)‚ therefore the velocity of the object should always equal 9.8 m/s/s. In this lab the picket fence was dropped repeatedly through a photogate connected to Logger Pro‚ which allowed the fence’s acceleration and velocity to be recorded and graphed. The results of the experiment

Purpose: The purpose of doing this lab was to observe the regenerative patterns of planaria cells after a portion of their bodies was cut off. Background: 1. A blastema is a group of cells that forms at the site of a wound that eventually turns into the missing parts of a planaria. 2. Planaria fission occurs when a planaria is missing body parts. The organism attaches its tail-end to the ground and pulls itself forward using its head-end in order to tear itself into two parts. Then‚ each of these

Introduction Heredity and genes play a big part in who you are and how you develop. Understanding genetics and how it factors in to everyday life is very important. In this lab we will be determining the dominant traits and the recessive traits and the results on

measurements while describing the swamp: “Okefenokee Swamp . . . is a shallow‚ saucer-shaped depression approximately 25 mi wide and 40 mi long”(251). The writer uses descriptive words that portray neither positive nor negative connotations. For example‚ the author writes‚ “. . . low‚ sandy ridges‚ wet grassy savannas‚ [and] small islands”(251). When describing the plants and animals‚ the writer classifies them into “Exotic flowers” and “mammals”; this connotes a neutral tone because classifications

Experiments investigating the effect of a particular factor on an enzyme-catalysed reaction are commonly used as assessed practicals in Biology. The reason for this is there are a number of factors that can be investigated‚ and therefore‚ a number of factors that can also be controlled. From our lecture‚ we are aware that the following can affect the rate of reaction: 1) Temperature: a. Independent variable: A range of temperatures should be investigated‚ with particular attention
