Laura Lugo Group: Bianca Jonson Short lab report 10/4/14 Effect of household drugs on circulatory system of Lumbriculus Variegatus (blackworms) Hypothesis & justification part 1: In order to understand a little bit about the effects of common household drugs such as nicotine and caffeine on pulsation rate‚ an experiment was conducted with Lumbriculus Variegattus (Blackworms). In week 1‚ we observed the basal rate of three different worms‚ and then placed the same three worms on different concentrations

Melissa Morales Bios 101 Spring 2013 Demography- Human Life History Introduction Demography is the study of human populations. It studies the size‚ composition and distribution of a population‚ and the process through which a population changes. Demography allows us to track changes over time and to depict how different periods in history change population dynamics. Births‚ deaths‚ migration and emigration‚ jointly produced the change within a population (Biological Science). Demography

Lab Four: Skeletal Tissues This week‚ we are examining tissues of the skeletal system. Specifically‚ we will investigate the process by which the long bone of the upper arm‚ the humerus‚ grows and lengthens in our patient‚ an 8-year old boy. Then‚ we will compare this process of growth with the process of healing and repair when this same patient sustains a distal end greenstick fracture of the humerus at his weekly gymnastics practice! Your assignment‚ which is worth 30 points‚ is to write

Hypothesis 1: It was hypothesized that the growth and seed pod production in the standard plants would increase when less competitors were present and that growth would be more affected by competition than seed pod production would be. The data in Figure 1 and Figure 2 support this hypothesis; the standard plant grew the most when it was in a container alone and‚ on average‚ produced more seeds when no competitors were present (Figure 1). Though growth and seed pod production had similar trends

secretions of animals including human beings as well as the plant seeds‚ bacteria and fungi (Siddiqui et al.‚ 2010)‚ the enzyme α-amylase that was studied during the experiment has significant impact on the hydrolysis of starch. By breaking the alpha‚ 1-4 glycosidic linkages in the carbohydrates‚ amylase hydrolyzes the starch‚ a polysaccharides that is stored in plants and cannot be directly digested by animal cells‚ into maltose‚ a disaccharide that later generate two units of glucose to undergo metabolisms

frequency of the founding individuals? 2. Do these results vary between the populations founded by beakers #1‚ #2 and #3? Why or why not? 3. What observations can you make about the genetic variation between the parent and founding populations? 4. Suppose you have a population of 300 butterflies. If the population grows by 12% in the following year‚ how many butterflies do you have? 5. Now suppose you have 300 eggs‚ but only 70% of those eggs progress to become a cater- pillar‚ and only 80

infrastructure? Risk assessment and business impact analysis (BIA) are crucial steps in the development of a disaster recovery plan. But‚ we need to create a disaster recovery risk assessment and business impact assessment in the overall planning process. 4 True or False - If the Recovery Point Objective (RPO) metric does not equal the Recovery Time Objective (RTO)‚ you may potentially lose data or not have data backed-up to recover. This represents a gap in potential lost or unrecoverable data. True

The Effects of Environmental Stimuli on Animal Behavior AP Biology Emily Olsen April 26‚ 2012 I. Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to test the effect certain stimuli has on the behavior of a terrestrial isopod. These bugs are more commonly known as pill bugs and potato bugs. The objective of this experiment is to determine which kinds of habitats potato bugs favor. Potato bugs have an innate behavior called taxis which will cause the animal to move away from a stimulus that is unwanted
