Procedure 2: DNA Extraction from Cheek Cells Materials: Water‚ Clear Dish Soap‚ Table Salt‚ Isopropyl Alcohol (70%) or Ethanol‚ Food Coloring 1. To 200 Ml drinking water add two teaspoons of salt 2. Gargle the salt water for 1 minute. 3. Spit the gargled water into a beaker (or new cup). Now your cheek cells are suspended in the salt water. 4. Gently stir the salt water with one drop of soap (try to avoid air bubbles) 5. In a separate beaker (or cup)‚ mix 20 ml isopropyl alcohol and 1-3 drops

AP Lab Seven Genetics of Organisms Dan Torres AP Biology Block 1 January 24‚ 2011 Introduction & Background Fruit flies have made a huge contribution towards knowledge about genetics‚ but for most people‚ they are just annoying insects that are attracted to their fruit. Their scientific name is Drosophila melanogaster‚ and to scientists‚ they have been a key to understand many principles of heredity including sex linked inheritance‚ epistasis‚ multiple alleles‚ and gene mapping. Fruit

Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to determine the maximum absorbance of fast green‚ and the chlorophylls‚ also in the case of fast green create a concentration curve to determine an unknown substance. Each test will use the spectrophotometer. Spectroscopy is the study of light. A spectrophotometer is a machine used to determine the absorbance of light at any given wavelength. It does this by using a source of white light through a prism‚ which gives multiple wavelengths that

Jan Levi O. Pangilinan Mr. Jestoni Basco BSIS – IIIB BIOS(Basic Input/Output System) 1. What is BOIS? The term BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) was invented by Gary Kildall and first appeared in the CP/M operating system in 1975‚ describing the machine-specific part of CP/M loaded during boot time that interfaces directly with the hardware (a CP/M machine usually has only a simple boot loader in its ROM). Later versions of CP/M (as well as Concurrent CP/M‚ Concurrent

Lab Report: Animal Behavioral Diversity Biology 112 Lucas LLona 5-7-13 1) a. Based on background knowledge regarding beta fish‚ I believe that the male beta fish will be the first out of the two specimens to display any aggressive behavior. b. - Pectorals flap at rapid speeds when the beta fish is uncomfortable and appears agitated. - The gill cover expands in size when the beta fish is uncomfortable. - Caudal fin moves quickly when agitated and also determines how quickly the specimen

over a decade‚ there has been a controversial issue dealing with building a national DNA database. This issue has been brought up over the discussion of the actual database and what kinds of effects will come out of it‚ if it actually happens to go through. Some people think the database will be a force in crime fighting. Others think it is a violation of civil liberties. In the early 1900s‚ “fingerprinting‚” a new crime-fighting database‚ was developed. With the exception of identical twins

Population Genetics of the Alu Insertion on the PV92 region of Chromosome 16 Abstract: PCR is a laboratory method used to amplify a small‚ specifically targeted‚ amount of DNA. It has three steps‚ the denaturing of the template DNA‚ the annealing of the primers to the DNA templates and the extension of the new DNA by Taq DNA polymerase. The Alu insert on the PV92 region of chromosome 16 is targeted and its frequency is measured according to the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in the Vanier HTK population

Enzyme Catalysis Lab: Laboratory Write Up Problem/Question: What happens to the amounts of gas produced in a catalyzed reaction of Hydrogen Peroxide when the catalyst is mixed with an acid? Theory/Hypothesis: In this experiment the researcher and their team will be performing tests on a catalyst (proteins found in potato) to see what will happen when the catalyst in a Hydrogen Peroxide reaction is treated with an acid before the reaction occurs. The researcher hypothesizes that the after treating
