Beet Lab By: Sumeet Grewal Purpose: The purpose of this lab was determining the effect of surface area on the beets ability to interact with the environment. Three similar sizes of beets were assigned. Each beat was cut up into different sizes as one large piece‚ two smaller pieces and eight tiny pieces. All three different slices of beets were placed in their own containers and tested. Observation: While the lab was going on‚ it was noticed the tiny pieces of beet were doing the best while the

Lab 34b Cardiovascular Physiology 1. What was the baseline heart rate for the frog? 59-63 bpm 2. Which wave is larger‚ the one for atrial contraction or the one for ventricular contraction? Why? Ventricular. It shows the strength of the ventricle as it pumps blood‚ and it is a thicker muscle to pump stronger as it contracts 3. At what time during the contraction cycle was it possible to induce an extrasystole? The time during the relaxation part of cardiac cycle. 4. By clicking the Multiple

Lab Report: Purpose: The Objective of this lab was to learn how to measure the pH (or acidity) of commonly known fluids‚ using the correct tools and procedures. To then use that data to document the changes noticed when mixing those same fluids and changing their respective pH levels. Materials: In order to conduct this experiment several pieces of equipment and other materials were needed. The first item was a graduated cylinder‚ which was used in order to measure out the precise

Effects of Enzyme Catalysis of H2O2 by Catalase Report by: Timmy Lin (#269164729) October 17‚ 2011 Mr. Rienzi AP Biology Problem: Measuring the effects of Catalase enzymes on hydrogen peroxide decomposition. Measuring the rate of the reaction when hydrogen peroxide and Catalase are mixed at the same ratio for different time (10‚ 20 30 60 120 180 360 seconds). Background: Enzymes are biological catalysts that carry out cellular metabolic processes with the ability to enhance the rate

Earth’s Energy Budget Introduction: This Albedo lab was created to help explain the process in which the Earth reflects solar energy back to space. The fraction of radiation reflected by an object is known as an albedo. In relation to the atmosphere‚ as solar radiation reaches certain colors on the surface of Earth‚ more radiation is absorbed by darker colors‚ which in turn decreases the solar radiation that reflects back to the atmosphere. If a person was interested in learning more

points Introduction: In this lab we will learn how the kidney processes blood and produces urine. Activity 1: Investigating the Effect of Flow Tube Radius on Glomerular filtration. Data/Results: Questions: Please answer the questions in complete sentences and explain your answers. 1. What effect does increasing the afferent radius have on glomerular filtration rate and pressure? Both the rate and the pressure increase as you increase the afferent radius. 2. What effect will decreasing the efferent

Sample Short Lab Report By Charles M Borener Jr April 24‚ 2009 Kinetic Friction Experiment #13 Joe Solution E00123456 Partner - Jane Answers PHY 221 Lab Instructor – Chuck Borener Thursday‚ 11 AM – 1 PM Lecture Instructor – Dr. Jacobs Abstract In this experiment‚ we test factors which effect friction. We pulled a wood block across a surface to determine whether the surface area of the block or the type of surface effects friction. We found that the surface area of the block did not change

Assessment of Catalase Function Lab Introduction The purpose of this lab report was to test and measure the rate of substrate destruction by an enzyme‚ we tested the destruction of hydrogen peroxide by the enzyme catalase. Hydrogen peroxide is a poisonous by product of metabolism that can damage cells if it is not removed. Catalase is an enzyme that speeds up the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen gas. H2O2 + catalase → H2O + O2 A catalyst is a substance that lowers the

The Osmosis Lab SHS Lacrosse Monster #2 Dates performed: 10/10/11 and 10/11/11 Introduction: The purpose of the laboratory investigation was to observe the diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane. In this lab‚ dialysis tubing was used to represent the semi-permeable cell membrane. Three dialysis tubes were prepared with 5% sucrose solution and were soaked in solutions of different concentrations. The diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane is called osmosis. When
