    bio 101 lab report

    The object of this experiment is to determine how changing the size of the beak of a finch will affect the population as well as the growth rate of the finch’s beak. The reason for the experiment is to evaluate evolution and how it affects the finch’s population, and how natural selection is always present in life. In this experiment I will show that the finch will continue to evolve until its beak has reached the optimal size for sustaining life, when changing the beak size to a much larger size we will see that the finch will have no need for further evolution of its beak and that its population will become much more stable and consistent throughout the years.…

    Cohesion Mini Lab

    In mini-lab 1, water was dropped onto the flat surface of a penny until the surface tension of the water was broken. 50 drops were able to be put onto the penny surface, with 51 drops of water being the point at which the hydrogen bonds of the water droplets that had created surface tension prior to drop number 51 failed to keep the surface tension, and the water spilt over the edges of the penny. This number of drops on the penny, 50, was possible because of cohesion. Cohesion created surface tension so the water molecules form hydrogen bonds of a greater strength with the water molecules around them. Cohesion is when a water molecule’s positive hydrogen end bonds with the negative oxygen end of another water…

    ATP is generated from aerobic respiration from the use of biosynthetic pathways. Glycolysis is where respiration starts in the cells and produces ATP, NADH, and 2 pyruvate molecules from the oxidation of six carbon carbohydrate and glucose. Even if oxygen is there or not, enzymes are mediated in the cytoplasm. The electron transport chain, chemiosmosis, and aerobic respiration use NADH molecule (which it main purpose is to transport electrons form one molecule to another) for later purposes. The mitochondrial matrix receives pyruvate from the cytoplasm after it crosses over the mitochondrial membrane. When the pyruvate enters the Krebs cycle it goes through many stages of biochemical enzyme-catalyzed reactions. In more detail about the cycle its main purpose is to produce little amounts of ATP by removing carbon dioxide and hydrogen from pyruvate molecules. Within the inner membrane of the mitochondrion the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis synthesis ATP with hydrogen ions which are NADH and FADH2. The Krebs cycle and glycolysis produce less ATP because chemiosmosis synthesizes a great amount of ATP.…

    Hydrate Lab

    Hydrates are compound with a constant composition. Concepts of Law of Definite Proportions (hydrates remain in constant proportions) and Law of Conservation of Mass (this idea is used to determine the mass of water in the compound and, subsequently, the formula of the compound) are expressed in this experiment. In this experiment, the goal was to find the formula of copper sulfate pentahydrate by heating a sample of the blue compound in order to evaporate the water and receive the white-colored copper sulfate anhydrous. Using the mass of the original sample of copper sulfate pentahydrate subtracted by the new mass of the copper sulfate anhydrous, the mass of water lost is obtained and used to find the empirical formula. The expectation for…

    Explain Why The Ice Water Cooled The Soda The Fastest

    After conducting my experiment, the results have led me to the conclusion that the ice water cooled the soda the fastest. This happened because the melting ice uses energy. Though water that is in the process of freezing gives off energy, melting ice cubes absorb energy. This means that when the ice is melting, it is absorbing energy from the soda, therefore causing it to lose energy and make its molecules slow down and freeze. This is why the soda cooled the fastest in the ice water; its energy was decreasing. In the refrigerator, the soda was just sitting in cold air. The same thing happened with the freezer. In the bucket of ice, nothing was making the ice melt quickly so it wasn’t using a lot of energy. This is why the ice water cooled…

    Virtual Lab: Treating Water

    I enjoyed doing the virtual lab. I treat water as an occupation so I understood how and what to add to treat the water. If you have a low (acidic) pH then you should add sodium hydroxide. If you have total coliforms, you should chlorinate before and after treatment. Often, we test houses for total coliforms and e. coli. If the bacteria is positive, then we chlorinate the well. After we make sure all the chlorine is throughout the house, we let it sit for 24 hours to disinfect the pipes and the well. Then we flush the system so there is no more chlorine and resample the bacteria. If you have high nitrates or pesticides, then you should activate carbon and chlorinate at the end. If you have high metals, then you should add chlorine at…
