DNA Extraction Lab Problem Statement: Do you think you have ever eaten DNA? Background Information: DNA is too small to see under a regular microscope‚ so how can it be studied? DNA is a large molecule found in all living things; therefore it is possible to extract it from cells or tissues. All we need to do is disrupt the cell’s plasma membrane and nuclear envelope‚ make the DNA clump together and - voila! - DNA extraction is possible. DNA extractions from onion‚ bananas‚ liver‚ or wheat

Title Application of DNA Barcodes to Identify Various Plant Species Abstract In this experiment we applied barcodes to plants in order to identify what species they are classified under. We also compared the DNA sequences of different plant species using the ribulose-biphosphate carboxylase gene (rbcL). We took samples from a plant called Chard and performed PCR‚ DNA amplification and quantification and sequenced the DNA. During the experiment‚ we hypothesized that this year’s “nonspinach”

Ballistic Fingerprinting is a method that is used to identify a bullets origin of fire‚ in other words‚ what gun fired the bullet in question. “The technology behind the achievement is called IBIS‚ short for Integrated Ballistics Identification System. Like many ideas in law enforcement‚ including fingerprinting itself‚ IBIS immigrated to the United States. Created by Forensic Technology Inc. of Montreal in 1991

Observance of Artificial Selection: Technical Study of Wisconsin Fast Plants 5th and 6th period AP Biology Due: 12/16/13 Abstract This experiment was used to explore the Theory of Evolution created by Charles Darwin. The use of natural selection was apparent in the artificial modification of an organism ’s traits which aided in this investigation. Through this experiment the Wisconsin Fast Plant was used. It is a fast-growing organism developed to improve the resistance to disease in

Question 1 What are probable sources of acid precipitation in your community? What impact can this have on the environment in your region? Some of the probable sources of acid precipitation is Fog‚ and rain. During the summer it hardly rains which makes it hard for our crops to grow‚ also since we are in the valley it makes it hard for us to get the water that we need. During the fall it gets very foggy in the mornings and it makes it very difficult to see while your driving. Prevailing
