Title: Laboratory Techniques and Measurements Purpose: To properly use‚ understand‚ and correctly convert the scientific measurements such as: finding density‚ converting centimeters to millimeters‚ 3 different units of temperature‚ etc… Procedure: I used a metric ruler to measure the length of the objects‚ a thermometer to determine the degrees of the water‚ and a scale to determine the mass of the designated objects. I used the proper equipment to measure out or hold the item. After I gathered

THE PH SCALE Learning Objectives: To distinguish between acidic‚ neutral and alkaline solutions using pH values. To classify solutions of equal concentrations in terms of acid or base strength using pH values. To understand how the appropriate use of Litmus paper‚ Universal Indicator and pH meter can give an account of different degrees of accuracy in the measurement of acidity or alkalinity of substances. 1) Define what an Acid is. Give five characteristics of acids. An acid is a chemical

Genomic Techniques in Ecological Genomics Ecological genomics is “an interdisciplinary field that seeks to understand the genetic and physiological basis of species interactions for evolutionary inferences” (Renn‚ Siemens 2010). Here I will focus on the genomic techniques that can be used to answer ecological genomic questions. An overarching goal in the field of ecological genomics is to find the genes that matter in species interactions‚ and then to study the ecological consequences

Systematic sampling is often used instead of random sampling. It is also called an Nth name selection technique. After the required sample size has been calculated‚ every Nth record is selected from a list of population members. As long as the list does not contain any hidden order‚ this sampling method is as good as the random sampling method. Its only advantage over the random sampling technique is simplicity. Systematic sampling is frequently used to select a specified number of records from a
