Introduction! ! The Michelson Interferometer is commonly used to determine the wavelength of light or measure very small distances. It was invented by Albert Abraham Michelson and is commonly used in optical interferometry‚ a branch of physics involving a family of techniques one could use to extract information about waves by superimposing them. ! ! The original application of the Michelson Interferometer was to the famous Michelson-Morley experiment in 1887. Prior to Einstein’s

Bio 112L Lab Report Bones and the Digestive‚ Respiratory‚ Circulatory‚ and Nervous Systems Introduction: Bones are what our skeletal systems are made up of. There are 206 bones in the human body of the adult skeleton. The adult skeleton is broken up in two divisions: the axial skeleton‚ and the appendicular skeleton. The axil skeleton is made up of 80 bones‚ and the appendicular skeleton is made up of 126 bones. As for the different systems of the body‚ we dissected a fetal pig in groups

What are some of the different types of kidney stones? A kidney stone develops from crystals that separate from urine and build up on the inner surfaces of the kidney. Normally‚ urine contains chemicals that prevent or inhibit the crystals from forming‚ however‚ in some people‚ stones still become formed. Crystals that remain small enough will travel through the urinary tract and pass out of the body in the urine without even being noticed. · calcium stones Calcium stones are the most common type

cheese. Lactic acid bacteria(LAB)‚ a bacteria that can be found in the production of cheese‚ its stress gene was investigated in the experiment by using various biochemical and genetic techniques to identify and extract. The characterisation of the strain illustrates how identification of strains differ using different methods‚ such as gram stain and 16s rRNA screening. After the characterisation‚ the stress gene isolation assist the further understanding of the gene on LAB be giving different stress

The kidney as several roles as a homeostatic organ‚ one of the roles is the regulation of blood PH ‘the kidney excrete a variable amount of hydrogen ions into the urine and conserve bicarbonate ions’ (Principles of human anatomy) as these two activities help regulate the blood PH level.

TITLE OF EXPERIMENT 2 : DILUTION 2.1: OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this experiment‚ students should be able to: 1. determine the concentration of coloured solution such as FeCl3 by using dilution and colour differentiating (colorimetric) techniques. 2.2: INTRODUCTION Concentration can be expressed in many different ways such as percentage volume and percentage weight etc. In laboratory‚ normally concentrations were expressed as molarity and normality. Molarity is the

Diet For Renal Patient Fluid & Fluid Control Kidneys help control the amount of fluid that leaves your body. If your kidney disease progresses‚ your kidneys may be unable to regulate the removal of fluid from your body and as a result your doctor may ask you to limit your fluid intake. Too much fluid may cause swelling‚ shortness of breath‚ or high blood pressure. What exactly is a fluid? Fluids are any food that is liquid or anything that melts into a liquid. Examples of fluids include the

How does the kidney function: The kidney has two important functions for the body because it is connected to the body’s blood flow‚ it can help monitor blood pressure and secrete hormones‚ which can raise blood pressure in the event when it does not receive enough blood flow. However the most important job is filtration of blood. The kidney works to filter out toxins‚ especially chemicals that are formed as a result of cells using energy. The kidneys also work to maintain the balance of electrolytes

Should it be legal to buy a kidney? Kidneys are organs in the body‚ shaped like beans which are almost as big as a persons fist. Every person has two kidney’s‚ one near the middle of the back‚ below the rib cage and the other on each side of the back spine. The kidney’s job is to clear waste from the bodies blood and use the extra water and waste to turn to urine‚ releasing it from the ureters through urination. Each day‚ the kidney cleans around two-hundred quarts of blood‚ finally gathering two
