Chapter 20: DNA Technology Biotechnology: Use of living organisms to perform tasks. * Wine & cheese * Selective breeding * Antibiotic production * Recombinant DNA Restriction Enzymes * Bacterial enzymes: cut up foreign DNA * Specific: only but at recognition sequences * Palindromic: cut at the same base sequence on each strand‚ but in the opposite direction * The exposed bases provide “sticky ends” * H-bond to compliment bases of segments cut with same restriction

28/09/12 Grace Masters Woodlice Behavior Experiment Aim: To investigate the effect of light intensity on the behavior of woodlice (Porcellio scaber) in regards to their change in speed. Variables: Variable How can it be controlled? (IV) - Light intensity - The light intensity will be controlled by the knob on the lamp throughout the experiment. In addition‚ the light intensity will be controlled by closing the windows and doors in the classroom as well as turning

1. By exhaling out carbon dioxide into the straw on top of the bromothymol blue indicator‚ the solution will turn the color blue into a yellowish-green color. When there is a presence of something that is acidic the BTB indicator changes its color into yellow/green. So in this case‚ the water with BTB and carbon dioxide exhaled into the flask creates a carbonic acid. As an aerobic activity increase than the carbon dioxide rate increases as well. 2. By exercising more‚ one’s body requires more

Iodine is a test for starch while Benedict’s solution is a test for reducing sugars. When solution A is tested by benidicts test‚ the clear blue solution changed to a little reddish and brick red precipitate is formed.this result show that solution A is a reducing sugar. When carried out iodine test with solution A‚ the colourless solution remain unchanged . this tell us that starch is absent is solution A. When solution B is tested with Benedicts test‚ the clear blue solution remain unchanged‚ we

Introduction: Living‚ microscopic‚ unicellular organisms can be identified as microorganisms. Fungi‚ Protista‚ Bacteria‚ and Archaeans are four kingdoms in the phylogenetic tree of life that consist of microorganisms. Amongst these microorganisms the prokaryotes were the first ones to arrive through evolution. The rest of the life forms as we see them evolved from these simple creatures‚ prokaryotes. The smaller prokaryotes were swallowed by bigger prokaryotes setting the stage for the origin of

SOCIAL DILEMMS CRISCYNTHIA MCWILLIAMS INTRODUCTION TO SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY DORIE RICHARDS FEBRUARY 18‚ 2013 Our perception of ourselves can be one of many but the most important of our perception is determined by our behavior. What we think about ourselves is who we become. If we think we are inadequate‚ we will begin to act that way. If we feel positive‚ we will act that way. The trail forward towards

Exercise 1: Dissolved oxygen is oxygen that is trapped in a fluid‚ such as water. Since virtually every living organism requires oxygen to survive‚ it is a necessary component of water systems such as streams‚ lakes and rivers in order to support aquatic life. The dissolved oxygen is measure in units of ppm—or parts per million. Examine the data in Table 2 showing the amount of dissolved oxygen present and the number of fish observed in the body of water the sample was taken from; finally‚ answer

Summer Assignment – AP Biology – Chapters 2-5 Chapter 2 1. CHNOPS are the six most crucial elements in most macromolecules. Name them. Carbon‚ Hydrogen‚ Nitrogen‚ Oxygen‚ Phosphorous‚ Sulfur. 2. Create a chart and state how many bonds each of the CHNOPS elements can form. Carbon | Hydrogen | Nitrogen | Oxygen | Phosphorous | Sulfur | 4 | 1 | 3 | 2 | 3 or 5 | 2 | 3. Create a Venn Diagram to compare and contrast polar covalent bonds‚ nonpolar covalent bonds‚ and ionic bonds.

Acids & Bases Lab Write Up Lab 2 Introduction There are many acids and bases all around us. An acid is known as a hydrogen ion donor (H¯)‚ and a base is known as a hydrogen ion acceptor (H⁺). Acids and bases are represented by the pH scale. The pH scale shows the strength that an acid or base has. This scale ranges from 0-14‚ with 0-6 being acids‚ 8-14 being bases‚ and 7 being neutral‚ such as water. This is defined as the negative log of an ion atom (pH=
