    In the Kingdom Exploration lab, five different organisms were observed under a microscope, (Yeast, Paramecium, Elodea, Daphnia, Euglena). Each of these organisms is apart of one of the six kingdoms, (Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Fungi, Protista, Plantae, and Animalia) which are apart of three domains, (Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya). In this lab, however, none of the organisms observed were archaea or bacteria. Also, all the organisms were eukaryotes, not prokaryotes, which are organisms without a nucleus and a single chromosome (a double-stranded DNA located in an area of the cell) instead. In the lab, organism one is a very small dark green leaf from a small plant. Under the microscope, there is a lot of chlorophyll, floating around inside the rectangular cells. Organism one…

    In order to understand a little bit about the effects of common household drugs such as nicotine and caffeine on pulsation rate, an experiment was conducted with Lumbriculus Variegattus (Blackworms). In week 1, we observed the basal rate of three different worms, and then placed the same three worms on different concentrations of caffeine and nicotine. “Caffeine is known to act as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain; it promotes sleep and suppresses aurosal, binding to the adenosine neurotransmitter receptor to block its inhibitory action” (CCNY lab manual, 2014). Before our experiment was conducted we hypothesized that increasing the concentration of caffeine will increase the pulsation rate. During this experiment we used 1.0mM, 3.0mM, and 10.0mM concentrations of caffeine. The highest the concentration the more effect it would have on the pulsation rate, so in this case we could assume that 10.0mM would have the highest effect on the pulsation rate of the blackworms.…

    In the BIO 14 Lab, the organismal system used for the last of three labs this semester is the Mimosa pudica plant. In these three weeks the stimulus-response of these plants will used to conduct experiments on the phenotypic plasticity of Mimosa pudica. Phenotypic plasticity is the ability of an organism to change its phenotypic traits in response to changes in the environment. And while very beneficial in some ways such as by allowing organisms to adapt to a changing environment quickly, it also has its costs. The greatest cost probably comes in the energy the organism needs to expend in order to produce the changed trait. For example, in the phototropic effect in plants, the plant bends toward the sunlight to allow for more of its leaves to get direct…

    The purpose of our lab was to have a better understanding of what are the differences between animal cells and plant cells. Although the cell is the basic unit in both living beings they are not completely alike. For that I have examined and compared human cheek cells to Elodea leaf cells. First, I’ve scraped the inside of my cheek with the end of a swab stick to collect the cells then I’ve prepared them on a clean glass slide. When everything was set up I’ve observed the specimen at low, medium and high magnification, drawing a diagram for the high magnification one. Afterwards I’ve arranged the slide with the piece of Elodea leaf on the microscope stage and observed the cells in it at low and high magnification, drawing a diagram for both of them. At the end I have taken in consideration all my observation and come to the conclusion that, indeed, cells are existent in both living beings but their not completely alike.…
