AP Biology Summer Assignment Chapter 50.1: An Introduction to Ecology and the Biosphere Ecology is the scientific study of how organisms interact with the environment. When studying Ecology scientists want to know‚ where organisms live‚ why they live there‚ and how many are there. Ecology and environmental biology both stem from Darwin’s interest and observations upon the distribution of organisms and how they adapted to their specific environment. Darwin concluded that the environment interacting

Labset Three Worksheet 1. What is a carbohydrate profile? Why are they used as a diagnostic or identifying tool? (2) Carbohydrate profiles are specific information on the type and amount of carbohydrate that a product contains. It is used to identify and differentiate two closely related species. 2. What are the carbohydrate profiles of the organisms you tested? (2) The yeast carbohydrate profile came out with glucose and fructose positive and Mannitol negative. The staph epidermidis

By measuring the temperature difference before and after a reaction‚ the calorimeter indicates how much energy is released. From personal experiences I had previously learned about the release of energy from different types of food samples. For example‚ from a previous class we learned about monosaccharides and how these types of carbohydrates tend to release more energy than the energy storing polysaccharides (complex carbohydrates). I’ve learned some new and interesting facts such as a dried fruit
