Using a photosynthetic organism of your choice‚ choose only ONE of the three variables (temperature‚ wavelength of light‚ or light intensity) and for this variable. • Design a scientific experiment to determine the effect of the variable on the rate of photosynthesis for the organism • Explain how you would measure the rate of photosynthesis in your experiment • Describe the results you would

AP ESSAY ANSWERS: 16-20 1. Information transfer is fundamental to all living organisms. For TWO of the following examples‚ explain in detail‚ how the transfer of information is accomplished. A) The genetic material in one eukaryotic cell is copied and distributed to two identical daughter cells. B) A gene in a eukaryotic cell is transcribed and translated to produce a protein. C) The genetic material from one bacterial cell enters another via transformation‚ transduction or conjugation

Chapter 1 Exploring Life Lecture Outline Overview: Biology’s Most Exciting Era Biology is the scientific study of life. You are starting your study of biology during its most exciting era. The largest and best-equipped community of scientists in history is beginning to solve problems that once seemed unsolvable. Biology is an ongoing inquiry about the nature of life. Biologists are moving closer to understanding: How a single cell develops into an adult animal or plant. How plants convert

1. There are two main types of cells‚ prokaryotic and eukaryotic. The connection between the two can be seen right from their prefixes‚ pro meaning before and eu meaning true or good. This is because prokaryotic cells are before a nucleus and eukaryotic cells possess a true nucleus. This has led to many theories that eukaryotic cells have evolved from prokaryotes. The evidence for this is most noticeable in the structure of the cells‚ which will be compared below. Prokaryotic cells have no

1. Living organisms play an important role in the recycling of many elements within an ecosystem. One such way this idea can be proven is through the study of carbon in an ecosystem. Plants‚ for starters‚ are a major part of this carbon cycle. During photosynthesis‚ plants remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen as a waste product. Another major contributor to this vital cycle is the human being. The average human being goes through respiration each day to help maintain

Phelps‚ Biology 205 MW 2:10pm. Unknown Organism Paper The unknown organism tested in the Mesa lab was collected from in between the toes of my puppy‚ Riley. The original culture grown consisted of dozens of visibly different organisms of varying colony colors and growth patterns. I chose to test a smaller‚ red colony for my experiments. Based on its gram reaction and oxygen requirements‚ the following tests were performed to reach my presumptive ID: Test Performed Result Gram Stain +

Each problem that these organisms may have experienced in the past has been dealt with a solution of some manner. One of the main problems was water storage. Because organisms in an aquatic environment are surrounded by water‚ they do no experience problems with water storage‚ but without an aquatic environment there are bound to be problems. The land organisms need to have water within their body that is able to be accessed when needed. A solution terrestrial organisms have developed is the loop

AP Biology Summer Assignment Chapter 50.1: An Introduction to Ecology and the Biosphere Ecology is the scientific study of how organisms interact with the environment. When studying Ecology scientists want to know‚ where organisms live‚ why they live there‚ and how many are there. Ecology and environmental biology both stem from Darwin’s interest and observations upon the distribution of organisms and how they adapted to their specific environment. Darwin concluded that the environment interacting
