Abstract For this experiment we tested the effects of different adrenalin concentrations (0.001%; 0.01%; 0.1%) on the daphnia flea. The daphnia was placed on a slide with cover slip in order to examine its heartbeat by using the microscope. Aim In this Lab we will study the effect of different concentrations of adrenalin on the heart rate daphnia‚ the water flea. It is expected to recognize a threshold of the daphnia in its reaction the three different adrenalin concentrations‚ in terms of heart rate

Introduction: The common fruit fly‚ Drosophila melanogaster‚ is mainly used for genetic studies. Fruit flies are easily cultured and can reproduce in as little as two weeks at the proper temperature. (Book) The purpose of this experiment was to study the transfer of genes between homologous chromosomes by crossing over. During our experiment we studied three X-chromosome genes: white (w)‚ miniature (m)‚ and forked (f). To begin this experiment we started with four types of flies; sepia‚ dumpy‚ wild

The Forbidden Fruit It seems like the greatest anecdotes revolve around an apple; Adam and Eve damned all of mankind for an apple and an apple inspired Newton’s whole life work. The scrumptious Frisbee-shaped apple pie that Gary Soto’s six-year old self snatches is almost worth spending the rest of eternity in hell. The author compels the reader that the rush and risk of stealing appears pleasuring enough when you enjoy it‚ but guilt fills the conscience when it vanishes. The use of diction‚ imagery

Preparation of food takes a lot of time. Even if the dish is only composed of fruits. A lot of dishes have vegetables in them. These can also be useful especially when preparing lots of different food at the same time. If you look at cooking websites they will suggest to use lemon water. In our experiment we will attempt to find out which is better at preserving the sliced‚ chopped‚ and or diced food. Since our experiments are limited by time and costs‚ we will stick to the simplest of the available

AP Biology Lab Four: Plant Pigments and Photosynthesis Abstract: The purpose of this lab is to separate and identify pigments and other molecules within plant cells by a process called chromatography. We will also be measuring the rate of photosynthesis in isolated chloroplasts. Beta carotene‚ the most abundant carotene in plants‚ is carried along near the solvent front because it is very soluble in the solvent being used and because it forms no hydrogen bonds with cellulose. Xanthophyll is found

Instructions for AP BIOLOGY Investigation 12-Fruit Fly Behavior *We will be using Roly-polies (Armadillidium vulgare) to study animal behavior instead of fruit flies. They are members of a family of woodlice in the order Isopoda that are able to roll into a ball. When writing up this lab‚ substitute A. vulgare or “roly-poly” or “pillbug” for Drosophila melanogaster throughout. **You still have to know the basics of fruit fly behavior‚ so be sure to read the lab carefully and save the lab handout to
