Life right now isn’t the way it was 21 centuries ago. And it’s not just us humans that’s changed; It’s all living things. This change over time or ‘development’ is called evolution. Evolution is the change of (heritable) traits in different organisms over time. If you’re thinking apes becoming humans you’re already wrong. There’s even evidence of evolution like fossils‚ DNA samples‚ similarities in bone structure‚ and even vestigial organs. The purpose of this lab is to see how evolution works and

this lab: Gravitational force Newton’s Laws One of the topics we have discussed is acceleration‚ meaning that the velocity of the object being studied is changing. What causes something to accelerate? In this lab you will investigate the forces that affect the motion of objects. Materials Something to toss Procedure Toss an object straight up into the air and catch it as it falls back down. Carefully watch the object’s vertical position as a function of time. Repeat your toss

many “chainobeads” was your enzyme able to make per minute in the 0 – 15 second interval? Our enzyme was able to make 6 chainobeads in the 0-15 interval. 2. How many “chainobeads” was your enzyme able to make per minute in the 60 – 120 second interval? Our enzyme was able to make 49 chainobeads in the 60-120 intervals. 3. Did your enzyme’s rate change over time? How does this compare to a real enzyme? The enzyme’s rate did change over time. This compares to a real enzyme because an enzyme’s job is

Osmosis Design Lab November 19‚ 2011 Biology Defining the Problem and Selecting the Variables Research Question: What will happen to mass of the cell when it is placed in different solutions while trying to reach equilibrium? Background Information Osmosis is the procedure where water or different types of liquids move through a semipermeable membrane. This type of passage is considered as simple diffusion where no energy is required. This means that the liquid will have

kind of cell because it’s in every cell. The cell membrane is supposed to hold up the structure of the cell keeping all organisms in alignment. Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules through a partially permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration‚ in order to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides. We didn ’t know anything about osmosis except that it was a word in the dictionary that we never picked up. Osmosis and diffusion are similar because osmosis is the

Lab Report Janice Chisholm SCI207: Dependence of Man on the Environment Instructor: Lee Ott April 28‚ 2013 1. What patterns do you observe on the information table 4? While observing the information in table 4‚ it appears that the number of fish changes from time to time and the oxygen increases and / or decreases when this occurs. 2. Develop a hypothesis relating to the amount of dissolved oxygen measured in the water sample and the number of fish observed in the body of water?

The investigation on the average mass of DNA with the mass of banana‚ strawberry and kiwi. Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to investigate the comparison between the amount of DNA per gram of fruit that can be extracted from a banana‚ strawberry and kiwi and to determine which one has more DNA. Hypothesis: The banana genome contains 837 MBPs and the strawberry genome contains 206 MBPs and the kiwi genome contains 128 MBPs. This states that there are more base pairs in a banana genome

Blood Lab Report Introduction A blood experiment was performed testing four different patients blood to find out their specific blood types. Blood types are categorized in four blood groups based upon the antigen ( proteins on the surface of blood cells that can cause a response from the immune system) ("Rh factor" 2006) on the surface of the red blood cell. The blood groups are A‚ B‚ AB and O‚ names which are broken down from the ABO blood group system. Although simulated blood was used

Collisions in Two Dimensions Abstract: This lab was conducted to investigate the theories of conservation of momentum and kinetic energy in different types of 2D collisions. In order to do this‚ both an elastic and inelastic collision was conducted on an air table with pucks. A video was taken and analyzed to determine velocity‚ allowing for future finding of momentum and kinetic energy values. By finding these‚ it was possible to determine which kind of collision took place. With low values of
