For example‚ a young adult in good health is expected to have the following FEV values:•FEV-0.5-50-60% of FVC•FEV-1-75-85% of FVC•FEV-2-95% of FVC•FEV-3-97% of FVCIn general‚ a normal result is 80-100% of the predicted value. Abnormal values are:•mild lung dysfunction-60-79%•moderate lung dysfunction-40-59%•Severe lung dysfunction-below 40% (SSO‚ 2). In the Schneider ’s Physical Test‚ the subject final test score number

In our experiment‚ we plan to note the effects of salt on S. cerevisiae by both spot plating to note overall cell colony size and the number of total cells and through the use of electro photometry to also count total cell concentration. Results: In our experiment‚ we determined how the concentration of sodium chloride effected cell growth and proliferation. We allowed S. cerevisiae cells to grow in mediums of varying sodium chloride concentrations

Carbohydrate Lab Report Introduction Qualitative identification of a substance is of significant importance in chemistry. Physical constants such as melting points have traditionally been used by organic chemistry for identification of unknown compounds. As for inorganic substances‚ the precipitation of a solid‚ results of a flame test‚ or the formation of a colored substance could all be keys to identifying a sample. Chromatography and spectra are amongst the newer techniques

Joshua Berkebile 8-26-10 1st period Density Lab The purpose of this lab was to find the mass‚ the length‚ the width and the height of 4 different cubes so we could calculate the volume and density of them. We also had to find the density of irregular shapes by dropping them into a graduated cylinder than subtracting the starting water volume by the ending water volume. Density is how much mass is in a certain volume of matter. Volume is the amount of room that an object

necessary to produce a temperature change of 1°C per gram of substance. The specific heats of different substances vary‚ and therefore this quantity may be useful in identifying an unknown. The measurement of heat changes is called calorimetry. In this lab activity‚ calorimetry will be used to determine the specific heat of an unknown metal. This will be done by using a styrofoam cup calorimeter containing water. A calorimeter is insulated so as to minimize any loss of energy to the surroundings. Therefore

The primary purpose of this study was to determine whether the Stroop phenomenon is equally strong in both brain hemispheres. Participants collected from our research methods lab were asked to complete an online experiment measuring the time of interference it took them to depict the color of the ink of the color-words. Furthermore‚ each color was assigned a number. For example‚ the ink color red was represented by the number
