1. Why do flowers have such a pleasant scent? What would be the practical reason? The practical reason for flowers having such a pleasant scent is to attract birds and insects such as bees. By attracting them to the flower‚ the bird or insect will be more likely to spread the pollen of the flower around‚ allowing for reproduction of that flower. 2. What is the reason behind evolutionary adaptation of flowers into bright colors? The reason behind the evolutionary adaptation of flowers

Complete the following questions and submit via Blackboard 1. List two events which occur during prophase of mitosis: 1. An aster is formed by fibers radiating from the centrioles of the cell. 2. Chromosomes are formed when the chromatin threads coil and then condense‚ and these chromosomes are two identical chromatids bound together by a centromere. 2. What is the main occurrence involving the chromosomes during

Diffusion and Osmosis Through Dialysis tubing We did this experiment to test the diffusion of different substances through dialysis tubing. We used what we knew about diffusion to make predictions on what we thought the mass of the dialysis tubing to be after submerging them for 30 mins and we knew that diffuse occurs from highest concentration to lowest concentration. Since the dialysis tubings are filled with different substances than what they are being put into then they should all gain

Natalia Wierzchon A.P. Biology Lab: 1. Osmosis 09/10/2010 I. Introduction a. Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to observe the diffusion process of water‚ osmosis‚ as well as create an understanding of water potential‚ the basis of osmosis. The experiment proved how water molecules in a solution are able to move from an area of low solute concentration‚ high water concentration‚ to an area of high solute concentration‚ low water concentration‚ diffusing “down” the water gradient.

Adriana Gutierrez AP Biology Lab 9 Analysis 1. For this experiment‚ what were the independent variable and the dependent variable? What were the constants? The independent variable of this experiment are the environmental factors that you are testing on the rate of transpiration‚ so our independent variables would be bright light‚ fan‚ dark‚ and misted. The dependent variable is the rate of transportation because this depends on whatever environmental factor the plant is placed. The constants

English 111 05 March 4‚ 2014 Homelessness In the U.S. there seems to be a lot of homeless people. Approximately 3.5 million people are likely to experience homelessness in any given year(www.nlchp.org). There are many reasons why people become homeless which are‚ domestic violence‚ addiction disorders‚ lack of jobs‚ mental and medical health issues‚ lack of education‚ and insurance. Some of these problems spiral out of control resulting in the inability to provide for oneself or

Biology 1010 is a course that introduces students to the basic biological phenomena in all living organisms. It focuses on the different molecular levels of organization‚ heredity in evolution‚ genetics and reproduction. Through this course‚ I was able to master three essential concepts such as Mendel’s Law of Segregation‚ enzymes‚ and photosynthesis. Gregor Mendel was an Augustinian monk that argued that parental traits are passed on to their offspring discrete “heritable factors”. Heritable factors
