Popcorn Experiment Experiment performed on 8/26/11 Biology 101 Introduction: “The oldest popcorn ever found was discovered in the “Bat Cave” of central New Mexico. Archaeologists found 80‚000-year-old corn pollen below Mexico City”. “The popcorn was thougt to be about 5‚600 years old”. (www.factmonster.com/spot/popcorn1.html) This particular pollen is almost identical to today’s popcorn pollen. Researchers came up with the theory that popcorn could have been a Stone Age snack for “cave

POST MODERNISM - fragmented‚ discontinuous structure‚ hybrids‚ experimenting‚ and subjective view of truth. Post modernism came about because of the first world war- left Britain broken and fragmented. The massive blood bath changed the mind-set of the country‚ thought about bigger questions‚ ideas about rejecting an overall authority

Tips to go Green Buy products made of recycled content materials. Report scavengers‚ who take recyclables from county curbside recycling bins. It is against the law for any unauthorized person to take items from curbside bins‚ and those who do are robbing counties of the revenue from recyclables that helps pay for curbside programs. Have a garage sale. Other people may be able to reuse your old stuff‚ so it doesn’t have to be thrown away. Start a compost pile to recycle leftover food like bread scraps

Biotechnology‚ Mapua Institute of Technology ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ solubility class of various organic compounds are to be determined. The main objective of the experiment is to identify an unknown compound through the use of preliminary tests such as examination of physical state‚ color‚ odor‚ and ignition properties. Also‚ solubility tests were used to further examine an unknown compound’s solubility class. In this experiment‚ the apparatus used are micro test tubes and droppers for mixing

Biology- Change in pH Aim: To investigate the affect that change in pH levels has on a particular enzyme‚ in this case amylase. Hypothesis: In this investigation I expect as the pH reaches the optimum level‚ the rate of reaction will be fastest‚ compared to other pH levels. It is also suspected that after the enzyme has reached optimum level the enzyme activity will decrease. Through further study of the optimum level of amylase I found that the enzyme usually has an optima pH of 8. It is known

The Green Movement Purpose: The purpose of this lab report is to demonstrate how changes in abiotic factor such as changes in precipitation patterns can influence plant populations. Introduction: During this observation I was observe ring the plant species called Kentucky Blue Grass. In this observation I will show how changes in the weather can affect the population of the grass. I will also explain how this may have some effect on Global Warming as well. Hypothesis: My hypothesis of
