Version 2: Identifying Dominant Plant Species 1- Hypothesis Based on the results‚ the bunchberry plant‚ with a scientific name of Cornus canadensis‚ was most frequently seen in station four‚ the ecotone‚ and second most in station five‚ the forest which is most likely in the lower forest since it has a similar environment to that of station four‚ and third most in station three‚ the bog. It was not as frequently seen in areas of higher elevation such as the old field. It should be noted that

AP Bio - Modern Genetics Protein Synthesis • Start with primer • New strand is 5’ to 3’ • TATA Box - TTAATTAA • RNA Polymerase - Reads and matches bases (One recipe; only reads leading strand) • Single strand produced; mRNA • Now produced pre-mRNA (You need exon‚ not intron) • Introns create spaces‚ need ligase to connect exons to make true mRNA. • Adds a poly A tail (on 3’ side) and 5’ (prime) cap (on 5’ side) used for defense • Leaves through pore to ribosome. • Messenger RNA will attach to

franciscana are known to live in high salinity lakes that are often basic (Biology 108 Lab Manual 2015). Furthermore‚ A. franciscana feed on photosynthetic phytoplankton which inhabit areas of light availability but are also more susceptible to predation in highly-lit areas (Biology 108 Lab Manual 2015). Also‚ A. franciscana can withstand a broad range of temperature except extreme values may affect survival (Biology 108 Lab Manual 2015). In this experiment‚ the habitat

Ivan Chavez B1 Invasive Species: The Mexican Fruit fly An invasive species is a species that does not naturally take place in a particular area and with its arrival brings economic‚ environmental or human harm (1). Recently there has been a bigger emphasis on invasive species (1). They are threatening our agriculture and forests and causing major impacts to our cities (1). The characteristics that make the species thrive in their environment vary with each. Their characteristics

Biology 102 Lab Report: Ventilation and Oxygen Consumption in Fish Methods: The lab consists of two experiments repeated over a period one hour with fifteen minutes interval‚ in order to determine the effect of weight and temperature on ventilation and oxygen consumption of Carassius auratus‚ commonly known as goldfish. Each experiment was carried out by five groups. Measurement of ventilation was determined by recording operculum movement of the fish. Oxygen consumption was measured using oxygen
