Practical 12: Digestion in Humans Aim: To distinguish between 5 liquids to come to a conclusion from which region of the alimentary canal it was extracted from. Hypothesis In this practical‚ we have been given 5 unknown solutions hence it is not possible for us without any logical analysis to come up with a conclusion regarding the positioning along the alimentary canal. We cannot come up with a proper answer or predict results without running through the tests. I though can base my

General Biology I‚ Fall 2011 Lab Report 3 Name: Luan Nguyen Date: 11-30-11 Lab: Gel Electrophoresis Purpose of this lab: In this laboratory investigation‚ students will analyze hypothetical human DNA using restriction endonucleases and gel electrophoresis to match samples from a crime scene to a suspect. Introduction: Your analysis unit will use gel electrophoresis to determine the guilty party. Electrophoresis is a technology in science that allows an individual to separate

It was hypothesised that as the concentration of NaHCO3 solution increases‚ as will the rate of photosynthesis until optimal levels are reached‚ then plateauing of results will occur. The hypothesis was refuted by evidence shown in the results (table two) as 0.5% concentration produced the greatest rate of photosynthesis‚ 3.10x10-3. Concentrations of 5% and 10% were deemed unusable as the agapanthus discs would not submerge‚ therefore the results did not enable a range of data. The results of

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to determine the concentration of two bases‚ carbonate and bicarbonate‚ by using a potentiometric titration. We can determine the concentration of the bases in the reactions ( H+ +CO3- < ==> HCO3- and H+ + HCO3- < ==> H2CO3-) by the way the pH of the solution changes. The way the pH changes when a strong acid is added can be used to determine the concentration of the strong and weak bases that are present in the solution. We can determine this by

Transpiration Formal Lab Report By Jessica Tran Introduction When water is transported from the roots to the mesophyll cells in the leaves‚ it is evaporates out the stomates‚ called transpiration‚ to create a lower osmotic potential. Osmotic potential is the part of the water potential of a tissue that results from the presence of solute particles. Even though the stomates open to release water‚ it also brings in carbon dioxide to produce sugar and oxygen through a process of photosynthesis

Biofuel Enzyme Kit Katie Adamson Biochemistry Laboratory‚ BIO124L 1/29/15 Abstract The objective in this lab was to determine the effects different conditions had on the enzyme cellobiase. We examined reaction rates in the presence or absence of an enzyme‚ the effects temperature and pH changes on the enzyme and the effects enzyme concentration and substrate concentration had on the enzyme. As expected results showed us that cellobiase works optimally when conditions are favorable. We see this

Introduction During the course of this lab‚ we explored whether or not certain processed foods contained Genetically Modified Organisms. Genetically modified food is an important subject in the world today. Ever since Flavr Savr came out with their tomatoes grown from genetically modified seeds in 1994 genetically modified foods has become ever more popular amongst distributors of produce (Mestel‚ 2013). The world’s population has grown by around one billion in the last decade (US Bureau of the

In this experiment we determined the Ka using two different methods: 1) the measurement of the pH of a solution containing a known concentration of a weak acid‚ and 2) measurement of the pH at the half-neutralization point in the titration of a weak acid and a strong base. Theory and Concept: When titrating a weak acid‚ HA‚ with a strong base the equilibrium

We labeled the test tubes with numbers one through five. The first test tube was our calibration tube‚ here we added one milliliter (mL) of buffer‚ four mL of distilled water and three drops of chloroplasts using pipets. After‚ we created the solution for the second‚ third‚ fourth and fifth test tubes by adding one mL of buffer‚ three mL of distilled water one mL of DPIP an 3 drops of chloroplasts. However‚ we decided that test tube number two was going to be the test tube that was kept completely
