High or Low Blood Pressure? Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to compare blood pressure as related to gender and athletic status. Hypothesis: I predict that males have a higher blood pressure than women and athletes have a higher blood pressure than non athletes Background Info: Blood pressure is the amount of force that blood pushes against the inside walls of blood vessels as it passes through. This pressure

Colleen Hamilton AP Lab 4: Determining the Rate of Cellular Respiration of Peas at Varying Temperatures and Stages of Germination I. Purpose and Intro The purpose of this lab is to determine the rate at which germinating peas respirate at varying temperatures and stages of germination. Cellular respiration is the set of metabolic reactions and processes that takes place in an organism’s cells in order to create ATP from sugar. It occurs in the mitochondria and comprises three stages: glycolysis

But the rest of the world considers them annuals because they can’t survive the cold. They only grow to be only a couple of feet high‚ so they tuck in nicely behind other shorter-growing

Abstract: By studying and calculating state variables from equations of state‚ such as the Peng-Robinson equation‚ the Clausius-Clapeyron equation‚ and the Antoine equation‚ one can see its dependence on thermodynamic properties of 1‚3‚5-Trimethylbenzene. After researching critical‚ triple‚ and melting point properties‚ other constants‚ and enthalpies of sublimation‚ fusion‚ and vaporization‚ many quantities were able to be calculated. The programs used to solve for these quantities were the Peng-Robinson
