Melissa Morales Bios 101 Spring 2013 Demography- Human Life History Introduction Demography is the study of human populations. It studies the size‚ composition and distribution of a population‚ and the process through which a population changes. Demography allows us to track changes over time and to depict how different periods in history change population dynamics. Births‚ deaths‚ migration and emigration‚ jointly produced the change within a population (Biological Science). Demography

Diffusion in Cells Isabel Zak Question: How does the size of a cell affect the distribution of chemicals throughout the cell? Hypothesis: The larger the cell is‚ the more difficult it will be for the chemicals to reach the centre of the cell‚ and diffuse throughout it. This is because there will be a higher surface-area to volume ratio in the larger cells‚ making the centre of the cells further away from the surface. Therefore‚ when dipped in sodium hydroxide‚ the larger cells will not

AP Bio DNA‚ RNA‚ Protein synthesis Study Guide DNA Structure Nucleotide structure - sugar‚ phosphate group‚ base backbone structure - alternating sugar and phosphate group directionality (5’-3’) - DNA is anti parallel. The side that sticks out s the 5’ side bases - adenine = thymine & guanine=cytosine purines vs Pyrimidines - purines have two rings while pyrimidines have one ring Bonding - hydrogen bonds Base Pairing rules - look at bases ^^ DNA Replication Semi-conservative replication

Sam Rausser Wednesday‚ August 17‚ 2011 3:38 PM Once glucose is made‚ glucose molecules can be converted (by plants) to… 1) monosaccharides‚ like fructose 2) Disaccharides a. Maltose (glu‐glu) seeds b. Sucrose (glu‐fru) sugar cane‚ sugar beets 3) Polysaccharides a. Starch‚ food storage in roots (chains of glucose) b. Cellulose‚ plant structure (chains of glucose) 4) Amino Acids a. Glucose + N from ground 5) Lipids‚ specifically oils which are energy source in seeds & phospholipids found in membranes

Lab 5: Osmosis Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to familiarize you with osmosis and‚ specifically‚ what happens to cells when they are exposed to solutions of differing tonicities. Hypothesis: If we add higher concentrations of sugar to the dialysis tubing‚ then the net movement of coffee into the dialysis tubing will increase. Materials scale or balance 24" dialysis tubing 4 transfer pipets sugar scissors rubber bands four coffee cups - they need to be roughly the same size

An increase in enzyme concentration will increase the reaction rate when all the active sites are full‚ and an increase in substrate concentration will increase the rate when the active sites are not completely full. The enzyme used in this lab is catalase‚ a common catalyst found in nearly all

Diffusion and Osmosis of Solutes and Water Across a Membrane Brittany Bacallao Nova Southeastern University Abstract: This experiment gave a visual understanding of osmosis and diffusion. The first experiment proved that solutes would move down a concentration gradient if permeable to the selective membrane. The second experiment proved different solute concentrations affect the movement of water‚ depending on the solute concentration inside the cell. The purpose of this lab was to look for

follows; 6H₂O + 6CO₂ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂1 There are four variables that affect the rate of photosynthesis; light intensity‚ temperature‚ CO₂ and water.2 However‚ is it possible to count in the colour of light‚ too‚ which I am going to investigate in this lab. Since the photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts that has chlorophyll‚ the rate of photosynthesis can be affected by different colours of light‚ since the absorption of light changes within different colours. Research Question: What colour of

Laboratory Report 4: Invertebrate Animals Section: I Table: 6 Date: September 26th‚ 2013 Introduction: In our group‚ our task was to observe the selected four invertebrates and familiarize ourselves with their taxonomic levels through the organism’s mechanisms of feeding‚ motility‚ and reproduction. Our group used the prior knowledge we possessed about the Hydra‚ Rotifer‚ Gammarus‚ and Planaria organisms to complete the lab. We knew that all of these small invertebrates have a
