The purpose of this investigation was to see if doing push ups affects one’s heart rate. It was found that the exercise that was performed did affect the heart rate. Therefore‚ doing push ups did increase the heart rate. If doing exercise increases one’s heart rate‚ then doing push ups affects the heart rate. This investigation deals with analyzing the effect on doing an exercise‚ in this case- pushups; will increase one’s heart rate. I have analyzed ten boys between the ages of fifteen and seventeen

Introduction Last week‚ my Biology class and I went down to the Port Kembla Rock Platform. While we were there we surveyed five different sectors about the rock platform and recorded them‚ these included: 1. Surveying the abiotic characteristics of the rock platform 2. Observing the abundance and distribution of the Black Periwinkle (Nerita Atramentosa) 3. Observing the feeding relationships and food webs of the organisms 4. Finding the adaption’s of organisms 5. And Observing the human impacts

Discussion: 1. Peter was preparing some potatoes for cooking. He put some water in a pot and added some salt. He cut up the potatoes and put them in the salt solution. Then the telephone rang and he spent 30 minutes talking to George. When he returned to put the potatoes on the stove they were flaccid (soft). Explain what happened to the potatoes. The concentration of free-moving water molecules is higher in potato cells‚ the cytoplasm of the cell is hypertonic. The water molecule will flow from

The area of study that interest me the most is Biology; the study of living organisms. I’m passionate about it because I desire to know how living organisms function for I could eventually use that knowledge to improve the quality of life of people. Meanwhile that I’m still enrolled in BMCC‚ with the guidance of professor Adolfina Koroch‚ I have created a busy schedule for next semester. I will be an assistant professor for biology assisting in the labs and giving tutoring to the students. Also‚ I’ll

Benefits of MRSA MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) is responsible for several difficult treatments of infections in humans. Many MRSA infections occur in hospitals and health care facilities with a higher rate in nursing homes or long-term care facilities. There are many solutions that can reduce these infections which are beneficial for people. “According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)‚ more than 70 percent of the bacteria that cause hospital-associated

The Rise of the Superbugs A Superbug is a bacterium that can live in the human body and has the ability to withstand all forms of antibiotic medication. Superbugs are becoming increasingly significant in modern medicine as they are becoming more and more resistant to antibiotics. Antibiotics were discovered in 1928 by Alexander Fleming (Walsh and McManus‚ 2000). This resulted in a huge movement forward in medical history and even greatened human life expectancy. Since then antibiotics have been

Biology assignment - In Vitro Fertilization. In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)‚ is the procedure whereby human babies are conceived‚ not in the womb but in a test tube or a Petri dish. This procedure has become one of the greatest developments in the world of medical technology. In Vitro Fertilization has given infertile couples the chance to conceive and bear a child from a full term of pregnancy. Without this procedure‚ their infertility would render them childless. There are many aspects of

or cell doctrine‚ states that all organisms are composed of similar units of organization‚ called cells. The concept was formally articulated in 1839 by Schleiden & Schwann and has remained as the foundation of modern biology. The idea predates other great paradigms of biology including Darwin’s theory of evolution (1859)‚ Mendel’s laws of inheritance (1865)‚ and the establishment of comparative biochemistry (1940).
