I am choosing to study how the PSI (pounds per square inch) of a football is affected by the temperature. I chose to study this because I like football and I always pondered this question. I believe that this is a worthwhile question to study because these studies can help improve the game as the weather gets colder. As air cools‚ it expands‚ so when a football gets colder‚ the air inside it expands. This expansion causes the air pressure to decrease. The air pressure decreases because the molecules

Photosynthesis: Plant cells vs. Solar Cells Chevon Allen 01/23/2010 SCI-115 Professor Garcia Photosynthesis and the semiconductor-based solar cell are very similar process with different ways of reaching the same goal. In photosynthesis‚ plant cells harness the solar energy of the sun with carbon dioxide to transform water molecules into hydrogen‚ oxygen‚ and electrons. Just like photosynthesis‚ Semi conductor based solar cells harness the solar energy of the sun for the same purposes

Lab Report Comparing Animal and Plant Cells The cell is the fundamental structural unit of all living organisms. Cells help carry out the functions of life and together support the organism to function as a whole. Cells are divided into two main categories of eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Animal cells and plant cells fall into the division of eukaryote cells that have both a nucleus and organelles. In this lab‚ animal and plant cells will be compared through a microscope to identify differences

The Effect of Temperature on the Enzyme Catalase Stephen Francis Biology 183 Abstract This experiment was performed to determine the resultant effect of temperature change on the reaction between the enzyme catalase and hydrogen peroxide. This experiment was performed by measuring and comparing the amount of oxygen bubbles produced and the absorbance of the catalase and hydrogen peroxide solution over time at room temperature‚ 2°C‚ 50°C‚ and 60°C. The overall result of this experiment proved

organelle in any eukaryotic cell. It is enclosed in a double membrane and communicates with the surrounding cytosol via numerous nuclear pores. Within the nucleus is the DNA responsible for providing the cell with its unique characteristics. The DNA is similar in every cell of the body‚ but depending on the specific cell type‚ some genes may be turned on or off - that’s why a liver cell is different from a muscle cell‚ and a muscle cell is different from a fat cell. When a cell is dividing‚ the nuclear

Lab 2: Animal and Plant Cells Purpose: To examine the differences between single cell and multi cell organisms in terms of Animal and Plant cells. Question: What are the differences between multi and single celled plant and animal organisms? Prediction: Spirogyra Cell: The parts of the spirogyra cell that will be visible under the microscope will be; cell wall‚ cell membrane‚ nucleus‚ chloroplasts‚ vacuole and cytoplasm. Banana Cell: The parts of the banana cell that will be visible

experiment was composed to show the effects that different colors of light have on plant growth. We separated our plants into different boxes and then covered the openings with colored cellophane. We conducted this experiment for approximately two weeks. Out of the colors blue‚ green‚ red‚ and yellow‚ the plant behind the blue cellophane grew the most. Research Problem What effects does different color light have on plant growth? Hypothesis The plants will grow taller under the red and blue

BIO 131 Lab #2 Drawings of Animal and Plant Cells Instructions: 1. Set up light microscope for use. Handle with care. 2. Obtain a slide of animal cells and observe first under low-power (4X)‚ then under medium power (10X)‚ then finally switch to high-power (40X). 3. Make careful observations of the structure of the cells. 4. Draw what you see under high power on a sheet of paper. Place your drawing in a circle measuring 10-15 cm. Use only pencil‚ draw neat lines‚ do not shade. The title
