September 18‚ 2011 Period 8 AP Bio Ms. Dahle September 12‚ 2011 TITLE: Population Genetics and Evolution Within a Gene Pool INTRODUCTION: The Hardy-Weinberg scheme is a way of viewing evolution as changes in the frequency of alleles in a population of organisms. If A and a are alleles for a particular gene and each individual has two alleles then p is the frequency of the A allele and q is the frequency of a alleles. The frequency of the possible diploid combinations is expressed in the equation

Genetic engineering is a type of engineering where genes are modified to find cures‚ diseases‚ and more. Genetic engineering uses the central dogma‚ which is the idea of taking. DNA transcribing it into RNA translates it into protein and expressing it as a trait. Recombinant plasmids are when DNA fragments are inserted into a plasmid vector. The recognition site is where the plasmid gets cut by the restriction enzyme which is an enzyme that cuts a DNA molecule. Recombinant DNA is the DNA being inserted

Bio Lab Report Erica Patterson September 10‚2013 Intro to cellular and molecular Biology Lab Abstract: In the Biology Laboratory Manual by Darrell S. Vodopich and Randy Moore are results to a similar experiment. The studied the hypothesis of carbon dioxide production by yeast fed sugar is not significantly different than the carbon dioxide production by the yeast fed in protein. Their hypothesis is the one that has helped formulate ours. We also will be answering the same to questions “What

Lab 10: Cell Structure & Function Questions 1. For each structure identified‚ do you think its location affects its ability to function? Why or why not? (Hint: those buried deep in the cell probably do different things than those closer to the cell membrane) Structure does not affect function of the cells‚ cells have a particular structure that enables them to carry out their function in the best way. Everything in a cell is there to enable it to perform in the most efficient manner possible
