Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to apply Mendel’s laws to predict the probability of the occurrence of a single event‚ of two independent events and of certain traits in offspring of parents exhibiting traits. Gregor Mendel was an Austrian monk in 1866‚ who studied how traits were passed using pea plants. From his studies of inheritance‚ he created three laws of inheritance: the law of dominance‚ the law of segregation‚ and the law of independent assortment. He called genes ‘’factors’’

Osmosis Lab Research Question: In this lab‚ our goal was to look at the effects of different sucrose concentrations on osmosis in potatoes. Our research question was “How do the sugar levels affect the rate of osmosis in potatoes?”. Background Information: Solutions consist of solutes dissolved in a solvent. In all living organisms there are many different types of solutes including salts and sugars. The major solvent is water. There are different concentrations of solutes in various regions

In this enzyme lab‚ (insert creative name)‚ the enzyme catalase was observed under varying conditions in order to interpret what prohibits and inhibits the functioning of certain enzymes in chemical reactions. Enzymes aid in chemical reactions by speeding up the time it takes for the reaction to occur‚ without getting “used up” throughout the process. Catalase‚ the specific enzyme used in this lab‚ is a protein abundant in the liver and red blood cells. It enhances the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide

What is the effect of a non-volatile impurity on the boiling point of a substance? of a volatile impurity? A non volatile impurity which is added to the volatile liquid‚ it’s boiling point will increase. It is due to some of effective surface area which is available for evoperation is occupied by non volatile substance. If another volatile impurity is added then 1) if it does not chemically react with given liquid then boiling point will decreade due to increase in vapour pressure. 2) if it chemically

A prominent Anglo-indian‚ Derozio played a major role in introducing western attitudes into Indian intellectual life. He taught literature and history at Hindu College‚ Calcutta and was perhaps the first nationalist poet of modern India. Drawing inspiration from French Revolution‚ he inspired his pupils to think freely and rationally‚ question all authority‚ oppose meaningless customs and traditions. He started a discussion group—the Academic Association—to enable interaction amongst students. He

The objective of this macromolecules lab was to identify the presence any of the major macromolecules in various every day food items. The three macromolecules that this lab was carried out for were carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ and proteins. There were five different experiments conducted and each of those experiments had one factor in common‚ they all had the same controls. The controls in this lab activity were already set for the lab activity. The controls were the distilled water and the baking soda
