Kunal Bhattacharjee Period 8 AP Bio Enzyme Catalysis Lab Report by Kunal Bhattacharjee 1 Kunal Bhattacharjee Period 8 AP Bio Enzyme Lab Report INTRO: Enzymes are a type of proteins that are formed by Amino acids and help speed up metabolic reactions. They are able to do this by interacting with the substrate . The substrate is what is being breaking down in the reaction. The substrate comes in to contact with the enzyme by binding to

Abstract Population genetics is the study of how localized groups of individuals capable of interbreeding and creating fertile progeny change genetically over time. The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium accounts for gene pools that do not change genetically over time. In this experiment‚ I intended to determine whether the sample population consisting of my fellow biology lab classmates would fall in the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with respect to the ALU insert from human chromosome 8. My hypothesis was

Genetic Drift Worms Lab 1. The average number of generations it took for the smaller population to become fixed was 10.2. 2. The average number of generations it took for the larger population to become fixed was 10.9. 3. In the smaller population I started off with six variations of the worm and ended with one variation. In the larger population I started off with 12 variations of the worm and ended with 1. 4. Genetic drift caused the changes in these populations. 6. Genetic drift has a

Results: Somatic cells multiply through mitosis resulting in diploid‚ identical cells and meiosis provides for genetic variability along with haploid daughter cells‚ gametes‚ or sex cells. Most of the cells observed on the root tip were in interphase. Table 3.1 helped analyze the number of cells that are going through each phase of the cell cycle and helped estimate the amount of time it took for each cell to complete that phase. Table 3.2 compared and contrasted mitosis and meiosis. Conclusion:

Fruit Fly Genetics Lab Kelly Hernandez 5/31/14 Drosophila melanogaster is a small‚ common fly found near unripe and rotted fruit. It has been in use for over a century to study genetics. Thomas Hunt Morgan was the best biologist studying Drosophila early in the 1900’s. Morgan was the first to discover sex-linkage and genetic recombination‚ which placed the small fly in the forefront of genetic research. Scientists have used Drosophila for many reasons. For one they are very easy to maintain‚

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

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
