PHOTOSYNTHESIS LAB Alyssa Wright VARIABLE: LIGHT INTENSITY AIM: to investigate the effect of light intensity (lux) on the amount of oxygen produced (number of bubbles) HYPOTHESIS: I predict that the rate of oxygen produced increases‚ as the light intensity increases‚ but only to a point. I predict this will happen because the plant will have enough carbon dioxide and water to keep up with the amount of light that there is. When there is less light intensity‚ photosynthesis will happen

Friction Page 1 Lab: Friction William Morris Leo Hayes High School Friction Page 2 Purpose: To investigate the coefficient of friction for a given surface and the effects that factors such as weight‚ surface area and changes to the surface have on the coefficient of friction. Hypothesis: The smaller the amount of normal force (weight)‚ the less friction created and the least surface area and the greaser the surface the less friction is created. With

The purpose of lab number thirteen was to examine the response of the daphnia to a chemical stimulant. Also examined was how human resting heart rates differed from the daphnia’s. Stimulants are any substances that raise the levels of activity in the body. Stimulants could be a number of things such as physical or chemical. Physical stimulus usually deal with something that affects the five senses such as sight‚ hearing these could be attributed to loud noises or too much light going into your eye

Cavendish discovered hydrogen in 1774 and Joseph Priestley found oxygen in 1776‚ neither man would expect the effect these elements could have on modern science‚ namely rockets. But creating a rocket is just combining these two gases in a closed environment‚ and one spark. This lab exemplifies just that what happens when the gases H2 and O2 are chemically combined with a spark. In this lab‚ the objective was to see how far a pipette filled H2 and O2 could travel. One half a centimeter of H2O was

Introduction to Microscale Laboratory Niki Gharavi *‚ Minh Nguyen San Jose City College ABSTRACT: The objective of the experiment was to be introduced to working with the lab equipment‚ specifically heating and measuring‚ and to be able to create some of the apparatus that future experiments will require. Heating methods used were an aluminum block‚ a sand bath‚ and a water bath. The aluminum block heated most quickly while the others were more stable. Regarding the measurement of water‚ the less

Lab Report The Effect of Resting on Clothespin Squeezing. Hypothesis: If you rest then the clothespin squeezing rate will increase. Materials:- Clothespin Clock Sneakers Procedure: Separate class into two groups (exercisers and resters). Exercisers will do jumping jacks for a minute. Exercisers and registers will squeeze clothespin for a minute Repeat steps two and three. Total of three trails. Precaution: Shoes must be tied. Space between exercisers. Healthy exercisers

Effects of Crossing Over in Sordaria fimicola Abstract Sexual reproduction in organisms is a cause for genetic variation. This can be seen through the process of meiosis in Sordaria fimicola because of the effects of crossing over and independent assortment that occur in meiosis I. Before performing this experiment we hypothesized that we would be able to see that crossing over did indeed occur in the S. fimicola. We tested our hypothesis by growing our own culture and observing it under a

The laboratory was also conducted in association with a second laboratory that measured the effects of an inhibitor on the enzymes. Changes in temperature and pH along with Substrate Concentration and Enzyme Concentration were the conditions tested in the experiment. Each lab was assigned to a group A‚ B‚ C and D in our class performed this experiment. The data presented in this report will reflect the average rates of change in

salinity‚ making water salty. To name a few‚ salinity affects the environment through sediment from rocks washes into the ocean‚ evaporation of ocean water‚ and sea ice formation are known to increase the salinity of the ocean (NASA). It can also effect the environment if high concentrations run off to a nearby freshwater source. Measuring salinity was very difficult in early times. During years 300 and 600‚ observations of changes in salinity‚ temperature‚ and smell helped civilizations
