Distinctiveness between the right and left hemisphere of the brain Word Count: 995 Abstract The brain assymetry experiment is to investigate on the distinctiveness of the right and left hemisphere in the brain as each hemisphere has certain specializations. The experiment were carried out by initially asking the 25 participant on whether they were left or right handed and they had to choose the chimeric image which appeared younger to them. Laterality quotients were calculated in order to

What in your view was the short-term significance of Boudicca? Boudicca is a historical figure of undeniable significance‚ “one of those rare individuals from the past who have become folk heroes…” (Hingley‚ R & Unwin‚ C‚ 2005‚ 7). In Iron Age Britain‚ Boudicca was able to emerge as a Queen with unwavering passion‚ determination and the upmost of bravery in her rebellion against Roman rule. It therefore seems fitting to assess her significance and the impact she had in the years following her defeat

AIMS At the end of the experiment‚ students should be able to synthesise pure aspirin using chemical tests such as esterification and recrystallization independently and to also find out the melting point range of aspirin using melting point determination. INTRODUCTION Aspirin‚ which is also known as acetylsalicylic acid‚ is one of the commonly used and widely found in any drugstore or pharmacy. Its properties make aspirin a well-rounded drug that reduces inflammation and fever and also relieves

society. Philip G. Zimbardo was the mastermind of the Stanford Prison Experiment‚ which was a psychological experiment that determined the roles of members in a society that became a fiasco (“Philip G. Zimbardo” 1). The experiment left emotional and mental scars on mock-prisoner lives. The Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE) illustrates the way a person changes when a label and power is all of a sudden given to hoax guards in order to control fraud prisoners. The experiment had a unit of people willing

Statement of problem: How much salt must be added to a glass of water for an egg to float? Hypothesis: I believe it will take 5 tbsp. of salt to be added to water for an egg to float. My reason is that I think that 5 tbsp. of salt is very heavy and will make the water heavy enough to float the egg. I must make the water heavy enough to float the egg. If the water has enough salt it will float. Materials Used: Eggs – 2 medium sized chicken eggs (2.0oz each) Natural Sea Salt Iodized

EXPERIMENT No. 3 Objective :- To prepare a temporary mount of a leaf peel to show stomata. B) Materials required :- Fresh leaves of plant‚ compound microscope‚ glass slides‚ cover slips‚ water‚ glycerine‚ safranine‚ blotting paper‚ needles‚ brush etc. C) Theory :- i) Stomata are minute pore present on the surface of the leaves. ii) Though they are found on both the upper and lower epidermis of the leaf‚ they are more in number on the lower

Aim: This is the reason for doing the experiment. It may contain a research question‚ but it must state what it is that we are investigating or what we hope to find out. Hypothesis: This is the basis behind your plan which leads you to believe that the experiment can be successfully carried out. It may also contain a prediction of the final answer (supported by a reason) Method: This is what was actually done or is going to be done. It may need a diagram‚ in which case it should be drawn

The experiment was divided into three days to test the detoxification activity of Beetles grown on Mung and Black-eyed peas. In day 1 of part I‚ four beetles per group were chosen from each food sources for both ANAE and BNAE activity. In part I‚ the crude extract was obtained by the experimental design outlined in the lab manual (Course Supplement for Bio 101‚ p.68). Each member of the group took care of one Bean beetle crude extract. First‚ the sex was identified by the following instructions of

complex with DMSO by refluxing the compound. The metal complexes were analyzed through their melting point and IR spectroscopy to determine whether the metal bonded to a Sulfur atom or an Oxygen atom of the DMSO. After analyzing the IR spectrum‚ it was determined that S=O shifted to a lower wavenumber in CuCl2~2DMSO and that S=O shifted to a higher wavenumber in RuCl2~4DMSO. Introduction Depending on the metal‚ it will bond to DMSO through its oxygen or sulfur atom. This will cause the frequency
