“Comparing Average Rates of Respiration in Mealworms in Light and Dark Environments in a Manometric System” Mohammad Rafi 213552179 BIOL1000 LAB REPORT Oct 28‚ 2014 Hypothesis The biological hypothesis for this lab experiment was that the rate of respiration in mealworms would decrease in mealworms that were exposed to a dark environment compared to those mealworms that were exposed to a light environment. This hypothesis was based on the fact that oxygen levels tend to decrease in

The primary functions of the circulatory system is to supply blood to all of its tissues‚ transport nutrients to its cells‚ and transport gas. The circulatory system also makes sure that thermoregulation‚ keeping internal environment within temperature range‚ takes place to maintain homeostasis. Lastly‚ the circulatory system keeps the body from harm by fixing any damages done to the body and providing protection against unwanted organisms. 3) The circulatory system itself has three major organs

HISTORY OF THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM: DISCOVERY OF THE BASICS The most basic principles of the Circulatory system took thousands of years to uncover. An Egyptian papyrus dating back to 1500BC correctly correlated the character and frequency of the pulse with the patient’s health status. Hippocrates (460-355BC) and his pupils also drew accurate conclusions regarding the nature of blood flow. The goal of this review is to examine the events that led to discovery of blood circulation. The Ancient Greeks

body is made up of a number of systems that all interlink and produce everything we need in order to survive. Within the body there is the digestive system; the circulatory system‚ the nervous system‚ the muscular system‚ the skeletal system and the reproductive system. These systems are all part of one another and they share organs‚ tissues and cells and that is how they interlink. The diagram above shows each system and where they are located in the body. Each system is shown in a different image

The circulatory system along with the heart make are what make up the cardiovascular system. The heart works as a pump that pushes blood to tissues‚ organs and cells in your body. The blood can be pumped throughout the body through a series of arteries‚ veins and capillaries. Arteries and capillaries send blood from the heart to all areas of the body‚ while veins help bring that blood back to the heart. Arteries carries oxygenated blood away from the heart‚ and veins carry deoxygenated blood back

Observance of Artificial Selection: Technical Study of Wisconsin Fast Plants 5th and 6th period AP Biology Due: 12/16/13 Abstract This experiment was used to explore the Theory of Evolution created by Charles Darwin. The use of natural selection was apparent in the artificial modification of an organism ’s traits which aided in this investigation. Through this experiment the Wisconsin Fast Plant was used. It is a fast-growing organism developed to improve the resistance to disease in
