the period of oscillations to the length of the pendulum.Sources of error for this procedure included precision in both length and time measurement tools‚ reaction time of the stopwatch holder‚ and the accuracy of the stopwatch with respect to the lab atomic clock. The final result of g takes into account the correction for the error introduced using the approximation. There are opportunities to correct for the effects of mass distribution‚ air buoyancy and damping‚ and string stretching[1]. Our results

Long stands of double helical DNA can fit into the nucleus of a single cell because DNA is specially packaged through a series of compaction events to fit easily within cell nuclei. Even though the length of DNA per cell is about 100‚000 times as long as the cell itself‚ it only takes up only about 10 percent of the cell’s volume. The DNA molecule‚ in order to condense‚ wraps itself around groups of histone proteins‚ and then the chromatin folds back on it‚ nucelosomes pack together to create a compact

Pseudomonas taiwanensis – Enrichment‚ Isolation and Identification Microbiology 521 2/10/12 Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to enrich Pseudomonas bacteria‚ isolating a species of Pseudomonas and identifying it using phenotypic properties and DNA sequencing as an existent or completely new and undiscovered species of Pseudomonas. Overview: Genus Pseudomonas is a chemoheterotrophic bacteria found in soil and water. They are Gram negative‚ motile‚ paired rods that are also oxidase-positive

Wave Nature of Light Objective: The purpose of this lab is to investigate interference‚ otherwise known as the diffraction of light. A beam of light acts a wave‚ and we are able to use equations so calculate the wavelength of the light used. The diffraction of a straight edge demonstrates that light waves bend around straight edges‚ allowing light to enter an area of shadow. When waves are superposed‚ they reinforce each other when crests are in phase and cancel out when they are not in phase

Laboratory Report The Plasma Membrane I. Introduction The Plasma membrane is the edge of life‚ the boundary that separates the cell from its surroundings. It controls the traffic of materials in and out of the cell. (Reece‚ 2011). It is incredibly thin that is very vital in maintaining the integrity of the cell. Not only does the plasma membrane bind the other organelles‚ it also forms a dynamic structure which gives them their remarkable activity and selectivity. (Hickman‚ 2008). Diffusion

involved in the identification of restriction fragment length polymorphisms. Restrictions were carried out using three different restriction enzymes‚ ECORI‚ HindIII and BstELI with their buffers. Lambda (λ) DNA was then examined using electrophoresis and Southern blotting. The results showed that λ DNA was best digested by EcoRI as all of the expected bands can be seen and are in the right place. The HindIII digestion was second best as there was a large amount of merging and the bands contained a lot

PEES 4200W- Physiology of Exercise Lab #2: Metabolism and Energy Expenditure 1. The Respiratory exchange ratio is the ratio of the volume of carbon dioxide produced and oxygen consumed. The ratio indicates the energy that the subject is expending for indirect calorimetry‚ how efficient the subject ’s body is at utilizing the oxygen inhaled‚ as well as the main substrate being used for energy during varying intensities of exercise. During rest the volume of carbon dioxide was 0.73L/min‚ the volume

procedure was taken from “From Drosophila cDNA in E. coli plasmid to homologous human proteins” lab manual (4). - Colony Picking: Two E. coli colonies were grown on agar plates and treated with ampicillin. They contained the plasmid with genes for ampicillin resistance and Drosophila cDNA sequence. - Plasmid Isolation: We used the QuickLyse Miniprep Plasmid DNA purification systems to isolate the plasmid DNA. Indeed‚ the bacterial cells were removed from the liquid broth and were resuspended in the lysis
