Describe the properties and uses of plasmids in G.M. experimentation. Plasmids are extrachromosomal genetic elements found in a variety of bacterial species. They are double stranded; autonomously replicating‚ supercoiled‚ covalently closed circular (ccc) DNA molecules that range in size from 1 kb to greater than 200 kb. Often‚ plasmids contain genes coding for enzymes that‚ under certain circumstances‚ are advantageous to the bacterial host (Table 1). Table 1. Some of the phenotypes conferred

Results Properties of social networks Mean network size was 80.67 (SD = 39.84‚ Mdn = 75)‚ with a range of 10–279 (Figure 1). The shape of the distribution is similar to that found in other studies of social networks (Bernard et al.‚ 1990; Hill & Dunbar‚ 2003). The size of the kin and friend networks is given in Table 1. Multilevel models The results of the two models are presented Table 2. The intraclass correlations (ICCx) of the models were 0.18 for Model 1 and 0.24 for Model 2

Department of Chemistry [Colligative Properties & Osmotic Pressure] Purpose : The experiment this week had two different purposes. The first is to teach us about freezing points. This lab was designed to show us the freezing point of a pure solvent‚ in comparison to a solvent in a solution with a non-volatile solute. The second goal of the experiment is to teach students about osmosis. In the experiment‚ we got to observe osmosis as well as understand dialysis

Properties of Chemical Reactions Ms. Whitty‚ Science 10 Fiona Adams‚ November 1st‚ 2012 Introduction Chemical reactions are a part of our daily lives‚ from rusting metal to making bread to leaves changing colour in the fall. A chemical reaction is the process that occurs when two or more substances combine to produce a chemical change. When a chemical reaction takes place‚ the change is indicated by one or more qualitative properties. The colour or odor could change‚ gas could be produced
