Transpiration Formal Lab Report By Jessica Tran Introduction When water is transported from the roots to the mesophyll cells in the leaves‚ it is evaporates out the stomates‚ called transpiration‚ to create a lower osmotic potential. Osmotic potential is the part of the water potential of a tissue that results from the presence of solute particles. Even though the stomates open to release water‚ it also brings in carbon dioxide to produce sugar and oxygen through a process of photosynthesis

Introduction: Mitosis occurs in all eukaryotic cell tissues and produces genetically identical daughter cells with a complete set of chromosomes. In humans‚ mitosis produces somatic cells that are diploid‚ which means they contain two non-identical copies of each of the twenty-three chromosomes. One copy is derived from the person’s mother and the other from the person’s father. Meiosis‚ on the other hand‚ occurs only in testis and ovary tissues‚ producing sperm and ova (eggs). The gametes that

University of Texas at Tyler Lab 3C: Purification of L-Lactate Dehydrogenase By Affinity Chromatography on Cibacron-Blue Sepharose David Alexander 10-15-2014 Dr. Black Chem 4135.001 Abstract: Like the previous experiments‚ the ultimate goal of this lab was to purify the enzyme sample. However‚ this is the last lab for purification and high level techniques of purification were employed to achieve this. Dialysis was used first‚ lowering the small-molecule concentration within the sample. Finally

Introduction The lung is a spongy organ made up of of irregularly shaped air spaces called Alveoli. The alveoli are lined by a single layer of flat cells and supported by a mesh of fine elastic fibers. The alveoli are surrounded by a rich network of pulmonary capillaries (Couch and Berger‚ 2004). Our lungs are a network of connected tubes that bring oxygen from the air into our blood‚ nourishing the trillions of cells that make up our bodies. The lungs also clean the blood of carbon dioxide waste

Kathleen Kramas Cells and Heredity Lab Tuesday 2:00-4:50 22 OCTOBER 2012 Membrane Permeability Decreases as Molecular Size Increases Introduction: Red blood cells are vital to organisms functioning properly. They are microscopic cells that carry oxygen from the lungs to all the tissues throughout the body. Upon transporting oxygen‚ red blood cells also exports waste‚ such as carbon dioxide‚ to the lungs where it can be expelled. Red blood cells are made up of hemoglobin which is surrounded by a

Biofuel Enzyme Kit Katie Adamson Biochemistry Laboratory‚ BIO124L 1/29/15 Abstract The objective in this lab was to determine the effects different conditions had on the enzyme cellobiase. We examined reaction rates in the presence or absence of an enzyme‚ the effects temperature and pH changes on the enzyme and the effects enzyme concentration and substrate concentration had on the enzyme. As expected results showed us that cellobiase works optimally when conditions are favorable. We see this

Submit your completed lab report to the Lab: Photosynthesis Lab assignment link for grading. For information on how this assignment will be graded‚ please visit the Course Information sectionChlorophyll and Accessory Pigments A pigment is any substance that absorbs light. The color we see comes from the wavelengths of light that reflect. Chlorophyll‚ the green pigment common to all photosynthetic cells‚ absorbs all wavelengths of visible light except green. The green reflects back to our eyes

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

Radial Immunodiffussion (RID) Christian Crespo 18 October 2013 Immunology Lab Report Purpose of the Experiment: The objective of this experiment is to quantitatively observe the foundational reaction in our Immune system; the Antigen-Antibody interactions. The Ouchterlony procedure is what will be used in this lab to detect nature of the antibody interaction. The orientations of the band will provide more information about the interaction of antibody and antigen

Bacterial Transformation Lab Report Backround: The plasmid pGLO contains an antibiotic-resistance gene‚ ampR‚ and the GFP gene is regulated by the control region of the ara operon. Ampicillin is an antibiotic that kills E. coli‚ so if E. coli‚ so if E. coli cells contain the ampicillin-resistance gene‚ the cells can survive exposure to ampicillin since the ampicillin-resistance gene encodes an enzyme that inactivates the antibiotic. Thus‚ transformed E. coli cells containing ampicillin-resistance
