Lab 4: Endocrine System Physiology | 1. | | Refer to Activity 1: Determining Baseline Metabolic Rates. How did the baseline metabolic rates of the three rats differ? Answer: | The metabolic rates for the thyroidectomized and hypophysectomized rats were lower than that of the normal rat. | | | 2. | | Why did the metabolic rates differ? Check all that apply: Answers: | The hypophysectomized rat lacked thyroid-stimulating hormone. The thyroidectomized rat lacked thyroxine hormone.

Protein in the Digestive System Taylor Adams Biol 112- 501 18 April 2016 Introduction Proteins are found in nearly all foods that we eat. Once the food we eat makes its way to our stomachs‚ pepsinogen is released from chief cells. This enzyme mixes with hydrochloric acid in the stomach and begins to break down the proteins. Along with the stomach‚ the small intestine is also an important location for protein breakdown. The proteins from both locations are broken down into amino

Lab #5: Refraction of Light Theory: Refraction can be defined as the bending of a wave when it enters a medium which causes it to have some reduced speed. In terms of light‚ refraction occurs when the ray passes through some medium which slows its speed; such as water or glass. In this instance the ray tends to bend towards the normal of the medium. The amount of bending or refraction which occurs can be calculated using Snell’s Law (). Objective: To measure the index of refraction of Lucite

Investigating the Effect of Predator Reproduction Rate on Prey and Predator Population Question How does the amount of prey a predator needs to survive and to reproduce effect the total population of an ecosystem? Hypothesis If there is slower reproductive rate among the predator population‚ then the prey population will eventually increase. The prey will live and reproduce if it is not eaten by the predator therefore if it becomes more difficult for the predator to multiply the prey

Lab: investigating hooked law with springs Purpose: to find spring constants of different springs using the slope of a graph of change in heights vs. the weight force. Also‚ to be able to understand how spring constants change when you add springs in a series or paralle Pre lab predictions: We predicted that the graph of gravitational force (mg) as a function of stretch (delta x) would look like Data: Spring #1: y = 8.2941x + 0.0685 This table represents the different distances that

Water plays a vital role in biological systems. Some species are able to survive in diverse environment such as fishes in salt water‚ Cactus plants in dry land and mammalian cells in aqueous surrounding because of the specialized underlying structures of these life-forms. In order for us to appreciate these special adaptation‚ we first need to know how a typical plant or an animal cell organelle behaves in different water and solute concentrations. In this lab‚ we will determine the effects of hypertonic

Laboratory No 4 Electrical Systems 100 AC CIRCUITS INTRODUCTION The purpose of this laboratory test was to make comparisons between theoretical and practical results and to develop a greater understanding of factors affecting the operation of complex AC networks. SUMMARY OF RESULTS The error in the results ranges from 0.02% to 22.63% and the phase angle errors ranged from 0.02° to 17.27°. This suggests that part of our results were very accurate (series parallel RC network) and the rest
