zmosis The IB Lab Report Measuring osmosis 1. Introduction My experiment is about osmosis on a potato and if or the quantity of salt affects osmosis. I would do the experiment with 5 potatoes cut into squares all the potatoes weight the same so the weight can`t be a variable the I put the potatoes on 5 different plastic cups with different amounts of salt and then I weight them again to see if the quantity of salt affected the osmosis of potatoes 1a. Research question ¿Does the quantity

microorganisms grow at rapid speeds and can be harmful and cause diseases. Although microorganisms may cause harm‚ society benefits from microorganisms in many ways. Microorganisms are necessary for the production of antibiotics‚ vitamins‚ vaccines and food such as bread and cheese. Dues to its important role in society the study of microorganisms‚ Microbiology‚ has become widespread. Microorganisms collected for study can be grown and visualized in both liquid and solid growth media. The purpose of

Ans: The signs and symptoms the young graduate student presented‚ show evidence of Lyme disease. 2. What is the environmental pathway for the vector of this disease? Ans: The environmental pathway for the vector of this disease would be a forested habitat. The black-legged tick or the deer tick is the principle vector of this disease (Lyme

Corte Madera Scientific Report Abstract I examine how rising or falling tide can affect the water level of Corte Madera Salt Marsh in this report. The data is from Wednesday (June 19th) and Thursday (June 20th). My hypothesis is that tide and water level have positive relationship. From the result‚ I learn that the water level and tide have positive relationship. However‚ when tide changes its direction‚ the water level is likely to stay or little change. Introduction On June 19th‚ my

Synthesis of Tetraphenylcylopentadienone Post-Lab Report Purpose- This experiment illustrates the use of adol condensation for the synthesis of a five-membered carbocylic ring. It is also a good demonstration of the impact extended conjugation has on the absorption of visible light. The reactants are bright yellow in color while the products are a very deep purple color appearing almost black. Introduction- The synthesis of Tetraphanylcyclopentadienone was a further example of the adol

Osmosis Lab Report Hypothesis: Osmosis will occur when there is an uneven distribution of solute in a solvent. The higher the solute in solvent‚ then there will be a higher rate of osmosis through the diffusion gradient forming a hypertonic or hypotonic solution. Solvent with equal or no solute forms an isotonic solution. Materials: Distilled water‚ sucrose‚ dialysis tubing‚ string‚ 250 ml beaker. Procedure: To demonstrate and isotonic solution we needed 3 inches of dialysis tubing. We

LAB REPORT HYPOTHESIS 1: Plants transpire the most when the environment has light and less humidity JUSTIFICATION: Water evaporates more readily because light stimulates the opening of the stomata and photosynthesis would occur. HYPOTHESIS 2: Transpiration would occur the second most when there’s light and lots of humidity. JUSTIFICATION: The light would allow photosynthesis to occur and the stomata to open but little if any diffusion of water out the leaf would occur. HYPOTHESIS 3:

Post lab The unknown solution 4055 was tested by the separation scheme in order to identify the four cations that exist in it. The cations found were Ag+‚ Ba2+‚ Mn2+‚ and Ni2+. When I added 5 drops of 3M NaCl to the unknown solution‚ we had some precipitate‚ we centrifuge and then we divided to two test tubes‚ and they were put in hot water and got confirmatory tested. The Ag+ appeared to be in the solution because it melted‚ however Pb2+ didn’t. With the rest of the solution we added Na2SO4 we had

Shalacia Gilmore Fall 2012 BIO 1107 Natural Selection Lab INTRODUCTION In the 1850s‚ two scientists by the name of Charles Darwin and Alfred Russell Wallace composed the theory of evolution by natural selection. (1) Darwin characterized several claims needed for natural selection to happen‚ including heritable variation within the population‚ and the presence of more individuals than the environment can support. They also discovered that certain environments favored certain traits. These

starch‚ into an acid or alcohol. For instance ‚ yeast performs fermentation to achieve energy by altering sugar into alcohol. Bacteria execute fermentation‚ altering carbohydrates into lactic acid (Helmenstine‚ 2013). Fermentation can be used in the food and drink industry as well‚ examples of this is bread. In the process of fermentation with bread‚ yeast produces carbon dioxide‚ alcohol and other compounds which enable the dough to rise and modify its physical properties. Louis Pasteur stated that
