Photosynthesis and Semi-Conductor based Solar Cells Plants‚ by shear desire to survive have developed the worlds most efficient and reliable power supply by way of photosynthesis. Scientist for years have tried unsuccessfully to duplicate the process of photosynthesis. However‚ for the purpose of this paper‚ I will compare and contrast how energy and electricity is generated through photosynthesis and a semi-conductor based solar cell. In addition‚ this paper will explain how both processes

Replacing disc brakes on a vehicle is not as hard as a person might think. It takes basic tools and a little mechanical ability. I will be explaining the process of this job‚ as well as the tools and parts needed to complete it. Also talking about how you would know your brakes were due to be changed. After starting this job the vehicle will be in operable until work is completed. It is important that at the start of this job‚ a person has all of the tools and parts needed to complete it. If a

Toxicology Lab 1. In this investigation‚ a wide range of concentrations of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) solution were created and the effects that they had on radish seeds were tested. This ultimately created a doseresponse experiment in which it was detectable whether or not radish seeds were a reliable bioassay for the toxicity of NaCl. The goal of this experiment was to determine a correlation between toxicity and seed germination/radicle

This lab has introduced the use of daphnia‚ pill bugs‚ amoeba and Uglena. We the AP Biology students were first introduced to the test subjects to test his or her capability of handling living organisms for upcoming science experiments. The AP Biology students were asked to create original experiments for all test subjects testing reactions to gravity‚ light intensity and reaction to food. Daphnia‚ or Daphnia magna‚ are microscopic organisms in which the students created an original lab to test

a ticker timer. Materials/Apparatus: One ticker timer One carbon paper disc One 1.5+ meter tape One test tape One stop-watch Theory: The recording timer is a device that helps you study motion‚ it is a simple electric device plugged into mains power‚ with a stylus that vibrates up and down. The stylus hits a tape that can be drawn through leads‚ and presses it onto the carbon disc below. This leaves a dot on the tape for every hit. The power source ensures that the vibration

The experiment we conducted in lab used three different species of algae‚ Macrocystis (brown)‚ Plocamium (red) and Ulva (green). Before we conducted anything‚ we first measured the initial oxygen concentration in the water that was used to house each alga. This was done because in the water that we used there happened to be phytoplankton which can respire and photosynthesize. If we didn’t take them into consideration our results would end up skewed. Once that was known we took a piece of each algae

Question 2 a.) Rubisco is a key component in photosynthesis. It is an enzyme involved in the fixation of atmospheric carbon dioxide. b.) Due to global warming‚ the increased temperature can influence Rubisco which can catalyses oxygenation over carboxylation. During carboxylation CO2 is fixed and raised temperature enhancing oxygenation. c.) Level of PGA depends on Rubisco with who is going to bind. Rubisco is an enzyme that reacts with CO2 and O2. The reaction with O2 competes with carboxylation
