Introduction: This investigation used spectroscopy to evaluate light absorption in different solutions. A spectrophotometer was used in the lab to determine these values. A spectrophotometer is an apparatus used to “measure the absorption of radiation in the visible and UV regions of the spectrum and allows precise at a particular wave length” (Jones et al.‚ 2007). The amount of light absorbed by a substance is directly in relation to the concentration of the solute and also the wavelength moving

Exercise 1: Correct Use of the Scientific Method and an Experiment with Macromolecules I. Objectives In this lab‚ students will: a.) Learn how to utilize the Scientific Method to develop a testable hypothesis b.) Generate an effective experimental design from a hypothesis c.) Understand the chemical differences between different macromolecules and how these differences can be used to design tests for each molecule. d.) Identify macromolecules in solutions using chemical analyses. e.) Practice

Lab 10: Cell Structure & Function Questions 1. For each structure identified‚ do you think its location affects its ability to function? Why or why not? (Hint: those buried deep in the cell probably do different things than those closer to the cell membrane) Structure does not affect function of the cells‚ cells have a particular structure that enables them to carry out their function in the best way. Everything in a cell is there to enable it to perform in the most efficient manner possible

Alhia Harris October 18‚ 2011 Biology Lab report Proteins are very important throughout the body. They have a lot of functions in cells. Antibodies are proteins that help cells rebuild the cells when they are destroyed. Transport proteins move substances from one place to another. Regulatory proteins control cellular metabolism in a way that cells throughout the body can have the right amount of glucose in the blood. A common protein is an enzyme; in cells they speed up chemical reactions. For

1. Describe the function of the following pieces of safety equipment and how each might be used: a. Eye wash- To be used in the event of a chemical splash to the eyes. Should be used to flood the eyes for at least 15-30 minutes with water‚ flooding from the eye outward. b. Fire Blanket- To be used in the case of a small fire. Would be tossed onto flames to suffocate the flow of oxygen. c. Shower- Safety showers are designed to flood your body with water in the event of a fire or chemical spill

Ksenia Semina Evolution Lab ARR 3 Blast Lab Analysis: Gene 1: The 4 organisms that were looked at in the Gene 1 are bird‚ vertebrate‚ rodent and bony fish. From the Blast result the most similar gene sequence to the gene of the gene of interest is Gallus gallus collaged which is also a bird. They are the most similar because the Gallus has the highest max score out of all other genes and 100% for the ident and there is no difference in the e-value. The species is located at the bird’s branch
