In the BIO 14 Lab‚ the organismal system used for the last of three labs this semester is the Mimosa pudica plant. In these three weeks the stimulus-response of these plants will used to conduct experiments on the phenotypic plasticity of Mimosa pudica. Phenotypic plasticity is the ability of an organism to change its phenotypic traits in response to changes in the environment. And while very beneficial in some ways such as by allowing organisms to adapt to a changing environment quickly‚ it also

Environmental Systems Bio-cylinder Lab Report Planning: The question that we‚ as a class‚ were trying to answer was: How long can the organisms survive within a sample-closed ecosystem? To answer this three separate classes had the opportunity to create their own bio-cylinders‚ place a specified number of organisms‚ seal it‚ and observe the cylinder for however long the organisms were able to survive. Each class made small modifications to the number of fish and snails that placed within the

The question is who are we? And where do we come from? Rather then spark a religious verse science debate and draw a very emotional line in society we let everyone believe what they want to believe. However regardless of what you want to believe facts are facts and science is science. After

What are the Effect of Different Environments and the Movement of Pill Bugs? Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to analyze pill bug’s activity in different environments and determine the effect of wet/dry or dark/light environments have on them and how taxis takes place in their choices in living in areas. Background information: Terrestrial isopods are commonly referred to as sow bugs and pill bugs and have other nick names as well. These pill bugs are also related to lobsters‚ crabs and

Electrical Components and Circuits Course: PHY101 Purpose: The purpose and objectives of this lab was to be able to draw completed electrical circuits using the correct symbols for selected electrical components‚ including batteries and diodes. Another focus was to calculate the proper resistance using Ohm’s law‚ use proper electrical currents and quantities‚ and lastly measure voltage and resistance in an electrical circuit using a multimeter. Materials:

Bio Lab: The Effect of Exercise on The Respiratory and Circulatory Systems Ellie Cookson Communication: 2. As the graphs show‚ both breathing rates and pulse rates spike significantly between the resting rates and immediately after exercise. Average breathing rates went from 26.7 breaths/min at sitting rate to 46.4 breaths/min during or immediately after exercise. Pulse rates also increased quite dramatically‚ going from an average of 65 beats/min at rest rate to an average of 100.3 beats/min
