Reflexes Laboratory Activity (12 points) 1. Amy has numbness of her pinky‚ ring finger‚ and medial surface of her right arm. After neurological testing‚ it is determined that she has a compressed spinal nerve on the right side. a. Which spinal nerve (what level) is affected? The level is C5-T1 cervical nerves. The specific spinal nerve would belong to the brachial plexus‚ the ulnar nerve. b. How did you determine/decide it was this level? The ulnar nerve branches off of the medial cord‚ which is

into the beaker while using the Archimedes’ Principle method instead of submerging the object? If the object was dropped into the beaker‚ then the measurements would not be correct. F. How did the magnet’s density measurement using the Archimedes’ Principle compare to the density measurement using the calculated volume? Which method might be more accurate? Why? The calculated volume measurement is more accurate because Archimedes’ Principle might have a higher percentage of error.

ENZYMES LABORATORY REPORT Introduction The utilization of any complex molecule for energy by an organism is dependent on a process called hydrolysis. Hydrolysis breaks complex molecules into simpler molecules using water. Similarly‚ the process that is the reverse of this is called dehydration synthesis‚ which removes water from simpler molecules. However‚ because hydrolysis occurs very slowly‚ living organisms use biochemical’s called enzymes to speed up the reaction. In this lab exercise

“We cannot know the consequences of suppressing a child’s spontaneity when he is just beginning to be active. We may even suffocate life itself. That humanity which is revealed in all its intellectual splendor during the sweet and tender age of childhood should be respected with a kind of religious veneration. It is like the sun which appears at dawn or a flower just beginning to bloom. Education cannot be effective unless it helps a child to open up himself to life.” -- Maria Montessori

Scientists require a large amount of equipment in order to successfully plan‚ complete‚ and analyze experiments they conduct. The specific apparatus used varies significantly from lab-to-lab and depends mostly on that particular lab’s planned experiments. However‚ most lab equipment falls into one of a relatively small number of categories. Glassware The bewildering array of available glassware includes several specialized pieces of equipment that scientists use to measure liquids and crystallize

Over 100 million animals are burned‚ crippled‚ poisoned and abused in U.S. labs every year. 92 percent of experimental drugs that are safe and effective in animals fail in human clinical trials because they are too dangerous or don’t work. Labs that use mice‚ rats‚ birds‚ reptiles and amphibians are exempted from the minimal protections under the Animal Welfare Act (AWA). Up to 90 percent of animals used in U.S. labs aren’t counted in the official statistics of animals tested. The
