Lab 3 – Homework 1. Purpose of today’s experiment: To determine the effect osmotic pressure might have on cellular membranes‚ specifically when beet slices are placed in NaCl solutions of varying concentrations. 2. Hypothesis: The osmolarity will directly increase with increasing NaCl concentrations. 3. Control = Distilled Water – this was present in all solutions 4. The independent variable – salinity of the 6 solutions; while predetermined‚ the NaCl concentrations varied from 0% to 15%.

Biology 105 Q: What are five issues that biological research may help us solve in the near future? A: In the near future Biological research may assist scientist in solving severe problems that have an impact on all forms of life. One problem at hand is how to control the human population. The human race is rapidly increasing and this has had a negative effect on the existence of natural ecosystems. Which leads to another issue Biological research may help scientists solve‚ producing

In 1956‚ Denham Harman articulated the free radical theory of aging which states that ‘oxygen free radicals that are formed endogenously in live cells result in a pattern of cumulative damage’(9). The theory is also implied that the target of those radicals in the cellular system is random. In live cells‚ DNA‚ protein and lipid are targets for the free radical’s invasion. Damaging any of those vital macromolecules in live cell affects the physiology of the cell and may lead to apoptosis and cell

of sexual orientation have been attempted to be described with biological and environmental theories‚ though none is sufficient to explain the cause. Sexual orientation has been attributed to differences in structure and function of brain‚ specifically in hypothalamus of straight and gay men (LeVay‚ 1991). Though the research doesn’t establish hypothalamus as the cause of sexual orientation‚ it does indicate the presence of biological factor causing the sexual orientation. Several other studies concerning

Biological factors are something that contributes hugely to the formation and maintenance of relationships- whether it is romantic‚ friendly or family related. Many researchers have conducted studies in which they have attempted to try and explain the link between biological factors and human relationships. I am going to specifically focus on Bowlby’s study on the role of hormones in bonding‚ Buss’ study on women jealousy and its relation to estrogen levels‚ Fishers study on the brain and its role

and biological weapons. These weapons are constructed solely to kill mass populations in the quickest amount of time as possible. Their most startling aspect is the cruelty in which lives are extinguished and brutalized. However‚ these two weapons are latently different. The definition of a chemical weapon is a weapon that uses any amount of toxic properties or chemical substances and that is intended to kill as an act of war. Biological weapons‚ however‚ are defined as the use of biological toxins
