University of Phoenix Material Roderick Tabigne Respiratory System Lab – Week Six Introduction The respiratory system consists of the upper respiratory tract (the nasal cavity‚ pharynx‚ larynx‚ trachea‚ and bronchi) and the lower respiratory tract (the lungs). As you learn about the various diseases that affect the respiratory system‚ it is important for you to understand the structures that can be affected by disease. Complete this lab to become familiar with a healthy system and to identify diseases

The purpose of this exercise was to use our skills we have learned in the lab to identify two unknown organisms. PROCEDURE I was given unknown #76. I performed the streak plating method with my unknown organisms. To perform this exercise I needed a TSA plate and labeled the bottom of it with my name‚ group number and organism. I also divided the bottom into three sections. After that‚ I sterilized my inoculating loop using the bunsen burner flame. After letting the loop cool‚ I reached into my

closer the heart rate should be to the resting heart rate of the Daphnia. Possible errors that could have gone wrong are the duration given to allow for the absorption of the different concentration of salt solutions due to the limited time during the lab period and the distinguishing of the separate heart beats and the inaccuracy of a constant time being off by points of a

Biophysical Ecology Abstract: There are many patterns that can be observed throughout our environment. In this experiment‚ the temperatures of organisms in a biophysical environment were analyzed to see if a pattern could be recognized that was related to the behavior of an ectotherm. An ectotherm is an organism that relies on the environment to regulate its body temperature. Organisms such as Pseudemys (turtles) and Lacertilia (lizards) are examples or ectotherms. After arriving at Maxcy Gregg

In fermentation the pyruvate is converted into ethyl alcohol‚ through the oxidation of the 2 NADH molecules‚ which returns them to two NAD+’s (Freeman‚ 2011). Oxidation is the loss of an electron in this case H+. We used information from previous labs in which we tested

Introduction to Microbiology – Case Study 1 Kristen Alejos You are working as an emergency room nurse in Topeka when a mother brings in her 8 year old son because of severe‚ bloody diarrhea. When questioned‚ the boy said that it hurts when he goes to the bathroom and his mother said he had vomited in the previous two days. When asked about their previous movements‚ the mother and son both mentioned a backyard barbeque that had taken place 6 days earlier. The boy complained that his mother

of course‚ values can fall between. Methods: To observe the effects of prolonged exercise on the metabolic system the lab subject needed to walk on the treadmill at a rate that kept his heart rate at 60% of his maximum. The

Impurity Lab Report Aim: To find out the difference of the boiling point and melting point when adding impurity (salt) to water. Diagram: Method: 1.Set up the apparatus as shown in the diagram 2. Get a known amount of ice in the beaker (half full)‚ and a known amount of salt in another beaker 3. Measure the temperature (melting point) of the ice without adding any impurity (salt). 4. Measure the temperature (melting point) of the ice after adding the salt into the beaker. 5. Heat up

Lab Report Procedure 6.1: Perform Benedict’s test for reducing sugars. Introduction: Benedict’s tests allows for the detection of the presence of reducing sugars. All monosaccharides are reducing sugars since all of them have active carbonyl group. Some disaccharides that are exposed to a carbonyl group are also reducing sugars but less reactive than monosaccharides. By mixing the sugar solution with Benedict’s solution and heating them‚ a redox reaction will occur. The copper (II) sulphate

This lab experiment investigates the effect of listening to different types of music on one’s pulse. The experiment relates the circulatory system to the pulse as it measures how quickly the heart contracts and releases blood. Pulse is measured in beats per minute (bpm). One’s pulse is loudest near the heart‚ because there is more pressure closer to the heart. In contrast‚ one’s pulse is quieter the further away it is measured from the heart‚ because there is less pressure the further the distance
