AP Chemistry Lab 2: Analysis of Alum Lab Objective: In this lab we will analyze alum by two techniques in order to verify its identity. The melting point and the mole ratio of hydrated water to anhydrous aluminum potassium sulfate will be determined. Lab Procedure: 1. Use a mortar and pestle to crush alum. 2. Pack the alum in capillary tube‚ and then fasten it to the thermometer. 3. Fasten the thermometer to the ring stand. 4. Immerse the bottom of the

using the fruit fly‚ Drosophila Melanogaster. A Cinnabar Brown female was crossed with Wild Type male. The flies were mated in a jar containing a nutrient medium and then placed in an incubator. The experiment was conducted over a period of 5 weeks. Cinnabar (cn) and brown (bw) are two loci in Drosophila with recessive eye colour mutations. Mutations in cn cause a bright red eye and mutations in bw cause a brown eye. Double mutants have white eyes. As predicted‚ all the F1 generation of flies were wild

The first slinky’s mass was weighed‚ using a scale‚ and its tension was measured using a force measurer 2. The slinky was stretched to 4m. 3. The linear mass density was solved for‚ by dividing the mass by the length. 4. The theoretical velocity was solved for‚ using the equation

Enzymes Introduction This study allows the investigation of enzymatic reactions behavior. An enzyme is a protein catalyst reaction by lowering the activation energy required for that reaction. The enzyme is unaltered at the completion of the reaction. In this stimulation the amount of product produced during the course of an enzymatic product produced during the course of an enzymatic reaction will be measured. Hypothesis 1: What is the estimate optimal of ph? Hypothesis 2: What is the estimate optimal of temperature

Calvin Williams Chapter 20 1. Advances in recombinant DNA technology allow scientists to work with smaller fragments of DNA‚ give them more tools to dissect and analyze DNA‚ and also allow for them to make many copies of a strand of DNA. 2. Restriction enzymes are made by bacteria to cut up invading DNA. They target specific base sequences in the DNA and then work to cut out those sequences from the DNA. 3. When a restriction enzyme cuts out a portion of DNA‚ it will sometimes leave a sticky

The Effects of Insects on Carnivorous Plants Digestion process of Venus Fly Trap Siddarth Pillai Hour 3 Honors Biology The Effect of Insects on Venus Fly Traps Research Question: How long does it take for a venus fly trap to digest an insect? I. Introduction: Venus Fly Traps are both heterotrophs and autotrophs meaning that they create their own food and get food from other insects. The Venus flytrap is known as the Dionea muscipula; it is a carnivorous plant native to the swamplands of North

In order to begin the experiment‚ culture vials for the flies were created. After wearing the proper safety gear‚ including but not limited to gloves and a lab coat‚ the fly food source was made using roughly an equal amount of distilled water and fly food. These were mixed until it had a mashed potato-like consistency. It mustn’t be too liquid-like as it will kill the flies; and should be solid enough to not slide around the vial. After obtaining and labelling a new vial‚ the food mash was placed
