Osmosis The purpose of this lab is to study how membranes of plant and animal cells react when exposed to different solutions. The first experiment involves purple onion skin and the second involves rat blood in various solutions. I needed to understand certain terms before preforming this lab to be able to efficiently explain what is happening to the cells. Diffusion is the tendency of a substance to move down its concentration gradient from a more concentrated to a less concentrated area.

Introduction There are two groups of reflexes in the human body‚ with two ways to categorize each of them. Reflexes can either be inborn and connected through the nervous system‚ or they can be learned through practice. Another way to explain a reflexive category would be autonomic reflexes or somatic reflexes. Autonomic reflexes are those which are unaware to us and act on visceral organs of the body‚ whereas somatic reflexes involve skeletal muscle stimulation. Both types of reflexes are put into

the product is not a pure aspirin by expressing purple color. TLC results weren’t high enough to conclude that the product was a pure aspirin. Overall‚ the lab wasn’t successful due to the low percentage of aspirin that were produced. Out of 2.0 grams of aspirin‚ only 0.7862 grams of pure aspirin were produced. So the percent yield was only 39%. Errors could be made during filtration process and the melting of the aspirin. These results showed that aspirin are not as pure as people

Abstract The major objective of this experiment was to observe the effects of catalase under varying controlled conditions. The scope of this experiment includes Metabolic processes‚ such as cellular respiration‚ and it poisonous byproduct hydrogen peroxide. The methodology includes procedures; multiple variables were tested in specific concentrations; that test the reaction rates of the enzyme catalase over a fixed period of time. The major conclusion was that catalase reacts faster in warm temperatures

By----James & Hao Feng & Henry Zhang Purpose: By measuring the friction and μ of a container and change different variables including mass‚ surface and gradient‚ get causes of the change of friction and μ. Materials: A container Three Pen bag in different mass A rough wood board A clean desk Rulers Thrust meter. Steps Prepare

spring scale in order to record the values when a) the block first moved‚ representing μs and b) as it traveled at a constant speed‚ representing μk. In one experiment the wood block was placed on its side and the experiment repeated. Overall‚ the results showed that μs > μk‚ and that the block that had the least surface area on the plank also had lower coefficients of friction when compared to one with more surface area on the plank. Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to observe

increase‚ because the muscles need more oxygen to produce energy. In the other hand‚ inhalation (23.18) increased heart rate than exhalation (15.87). This can be concluded‚ because blood going to the heart increased (increase in heart rate. As a result‚ the heart rate increase when the body is in intense movements or during

measuring the exact distance traveled by the filter paper‚ making the test results not plausible. The results of this lab proved several things. The results of the first test show that a higher enzyme concentration causes a faster rate of the substrate being broken down. This means that the effect of enzyme concentration on enzyme activity is a positive effect and speeds up enzyme activity. The reason that the results turned out as they did is because with more enzymes to do the work‚ that leaves

concentration to an area of lower concentration. In this lab‚ we can determine the direction of diffusion of small molecules by measuring the diffusion of small molecules through dialysis tubing. This tubing acts as a selectively permeable membrane‚ and allow to pass larger molecules slowly. Introduction: Cells have kinetic energy and it causes the molecules of the cell to move around and bump into each other. Diffusion is one result of this molecular movement. Diffusion is the passive movement

The lesson is divided into 3 labs that can be completed in any order. After labs have been completed‚ facilitate a class discussion where students summarize and compare findings and relate how their findings support (or refute) Newton’s Laws of Motion LAB 1: How fast can it go? Put one car at the top of the ramp and let it roll down. Use a stopwatch to record the time the car rolled. Use this information to calculate the acceleration of the car. Measure the distance the car rolled using the
