ABSTRACT Morphology is inherent to an understanding of how insects live and function. Orthopteroid insects are good choices for this study because gross morphological features are readily observed. Like most other insects‚ the grasshopper (or other Orthopteroid) consists of three general body regions: the head‚ thorax and abdomen. For morphological studies‚ antennae were detached from the specimen. Then‚ the antenna was mounted in a glass slide. The prepared slides were then examined under magnoscope

individual’s brain enzymes can denature and cause life threatening problems. The opposite can occur as well‚ if the temperature is too low‚ hypothermia can occur and it can be dangerous (Wilson‚ 1996). In the experiment optimal conditions for fungal and bacterial amylase was measured as well. Discovering information‚ such as the optimal temperature‚ can help demonstrate the environment these organisms work best. Thus‚ if further studies are conducted on different enzymes‚ the more information is covered about

Purpose: To observe epithelial tissue by using a microscope to compare prepared slides. Introduction: Epithelial tissue covers the whole surface of the body. It is made up of cells closely packed and ranged in one or more layers. This tissue is specialized to form the covering or lining of all internal and external body surfaces. Epithelial tissue can be divided into two groups depending on the number of layers of which it is composes. Epithelial tissue which is only one cell thick is known as

1. OBJECTIVES (a) To determine the equivalent circuit parameters of a 3-phase squirrel-cage induction motor from laboratory test data. (b) To determine the performance characteristics of an induction motor under load conditions. (c) To control the no-load speed of an induction motor. 2. INTRODUCTION 2.1 Three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors An induction motor is a transformer with a rotating secondary winding. It has two essential components: an outer stationary stator and an

EXPERIMENT 1: TITLE: ISOMERISM AND KINETICS IN COORDINATION CHEMISTRY OBJECTIVE: 1. To prepare and study the kinetics of the interconversion of some of the isomers of a typical coordination compound. INTRODUCTION: Isomerism played a central role to establish the basic concept in coordination chemistry while reaction kinetics of coordination compound is known as the area of continuing intense research activity. The mechanism of the reactions of coordination compounds relevance

Synthesis of Butyl Benzoate Using Phase Transfer Catalysis The objective of the experiment is to synthesize the butly benzoate by nucleophilic substitution and characterize it by IR spectroscopy. The percent yield of the final product is determined after the synthesis. Procedures: 2.0 mL of 1-bromobutane‚ 3.0 g of sodium benzoate‚ 5.0 mL of water‚ 4 drops of Aliquat 336‚ and a boiling stone were placed in a 50mL round-bottomed flask. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 1 hour and the flask

The kidneys are a pair of fist-sized organs located outside the peritoneal cavity on each side of the spine. The kidney is a highly specialized organ that maintains the internal environment of the body by selectively excreting or retaining various substances according to specific body needs.

Questions and Hypothesis: Seed germination‚ plant growth‚ and sprouting of leaves are affected by several factors: supply of nutrients‚ water‚ exposure to sunlight‚ and conditions of surroundings. Due to certain stimuli in the surroundings plant “hormones” cause plants to behave in ways that ensure the most efficient use of resources while preserving the most energy. One stimulus to consider‚ is the exposure of plants to sunlight; when plants are just sprouting and are underground‚ the sti
