Unit 5 Case Study Mariella Hines is a 9 year-old African-American girl attending the 3rd grade in the JFK School. She was referred to the School Psychologist because she has recently become very withdrawn during class‚ refusing to speak to anyone‚ including her teacher and peers. Previously she seemed to have age-appropriate social skills‚ interacting well at school. Her withdrawal started suddenly. Mariella’s teacher‚ Mrs. Levine‚ called Mariella’s mother to find out more information‚ but her

Study Questions: Chapter 28 1.) Archaea and Bacteria are the oldest‚ structurally simplest and most abundant forms of life. 2.) Name and describe seven ways in which prokaryotes differ substantially from eukaryotes? Unicellularity- fundamentally single-celled Cell Size- can vary (large range changes with species) Nucleoid- lack a membrane-bound nucleus but rather a nucleoid region Cell Division/Genetic Recombination- binary fission (does not use spindle) and do not have a sexual cycle Internal

Biology Article Isaac Ayers Professor Carol Hoban SCI115012VA016-1136-001 Introduction to Biology August 2‚ 2013 * The title of the article that I have chosen for this assignment is “The Era of Memory Engineering Has Arrived”. The article begins by explaining a basic plot of a sci-fi movie in which the main character has had his memories altered by scientists using electrode caps. The article then goes into detail about how a new set of experiments‚ led by MIT neuroscientists

How Enzymes Work In Different Environments By Sarah Smith Biology1111 October 20‚ 2011 Lab Partner: Nellie Greer ABSTRACT Peroxidase is an enzyme found in potatoes that catalyzes the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide‚ H2O2‚ into O2 gas and water. We examined the different pH environments that can affect the enzyme activity during the breakdown of H2O2. In order to do this‚ we added different levels of pH‚ low‚ medium‚ and high‚ into different test tubes with the enzyme and H2O2‚

Lung Capacity I. Introduction. The chest contains two lungs‚ one lung on the right side of the chest‚ the other on the left side of the chest. Each lung is made up of sections called lobes. The lungs are soft and protected by the ribcage. The purpose of the lungs is to bring oxygen into the body and to remove carbon dioxide. Oxygen is a gas that provides us with energy‚ while carbon dioxide is a waste product or “exhaust” of the body. | To deliver oxygen to the body‚ air is breathed in through

Extended experimental investigation: effects on membranes of environmental stress Background It is not possible to observe membranes directly‚ so this investigation is an indirect study of the effects of different substances and treatments on living beetroot cells. Beetroot cells have been chosen for this activity because each beetroot cell has a large central vacuole bounded by a membrane (Figure 1). Contained in the vacuole is the red pigment anthocyanin‚ which gives the beetroot its

# 49 Diet The food an animal eat everyday is called diet. Most animals need 7 types of nutrients in their diet: carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ fats + water‚ fibre‚ vitamins‚ minerals. The amount of energy needed is provided mainly by our carbohydrate and fat intake. Your dietary requirements depend on your age‚ sex and activity. - Age: The energy demand increases until we stop growing. While children are growing they need more protein per kilogram of body weight than adults do. - Sex: Generally

Dry Wallum The dry wallum is a harsh environment that is battered by the sun and wind every day and with a base of porous sand; water availability is very scarce and must be conserved. The abiotic factors in the dry wallum are that the area is exposed to high amounts of sunlight which causes a loss of water in the leaves through transpiration. Since the wallum is so dry and hot; bush fires play a major cycle in the dry wallum which the trees have adapted to cope with. The roots of the plant and

Gas exchange is a biological process that is essential for the survival of an organism. The purpose of this process is to obtain oxygen from the environment (which is necessary for cellular respiration‚ and to dispose of CO2‚ a bi product of respiration. An efficient gas exchange system has 3 requirements. It must have a large surface area over which the gases can diffuse. A large surface area maximises the amount of area available for the gases to exchange. It must also be moist. Oxygen must first
