Planaria Regeneration in Ideal Temperatures vs. Cold Temperatures Christina Malfas Abstract Planaria are flatworms that live in quiet freshwater bodies. They live in a narrow range of temperatures‚ from 22-24°C. They regenerate asexually‚ specifically through a process called epimorphosis‚ in which they completely regenerate one half of their bodies after splitting themselves in two. The diffusion gradient model assumes that cells in an organism “know” their orientation on that organism due

The height difference that is used in the experiment varies from 0.5m. It adds by 0.5m in every drop height. A trend line showed on the graph and explains that the higher the drop height the higher the ball bounces back. When the height the ball bounces back is rounded the pattern of increasing the bounce height is by 0.2 m as shown‚ 0.7‚ 0.9‚ 1.0. The pattern of the bounce height explains this when the numbers are rounded. In each increasing drop height‚ the amount of m that the ball has bounced

The effect of environmental factors such as temperature‚ osmotic pressure‚ oxygen concentration and pH on microbial growth and survival Abstract: Microbial growth can be affected by different environmental factors such as temperature‚ osmotic pressure‚ oxygen concentration and pH. Six experiments were carried out in this report testing for microbial growth against different environmental factors. Good aseptic techniques were used to prevent contamination‚ resulting in a uniform set of results

Chapter 6 Measuring Vital Signs Unit 1: Temperature‚ Pulse‚ and Respiration UNIT RATIONALE Important indicators of your patient’s/client’s health status are known as vital signs. Vital signs give you information about breathing‚ body temperature‚ and the heart. They are a good indication of how well the body systems are functioning. As a health care worker‚ you need to observe patients whenever you are near them. Your knowledge of vital signs and how to measure them helps you know when to report

The Question: Does temperature affect the elasticity of a rubber band? Our Hypothesis: We thought that in hot water that it will be the most elastic. Simply because hot water make things stretchy and moveable like balsa wood. Material: 1. Three Cups 2. Nine rubber bands (should be the same) 3. Cold Water 4. Hot Water 5. Room Temperature Water 6. Two pencils (you will see why later) 7. Four Ice Cubes 8. Water that is sitting in an indoor location 9. Stop Watch 10. Ruler Experimental 1. Take one cup

magnet affect by warm or cold temperatures? This experiment showed that if a magnet is cold‚ then it will have more magnetic pull than a warm magnet. The independent variable is the temperature of magnets. The dependent variable is the magnetic pull of magnets. The experimental group is magnets exposed to different temperatures. The control group is the room temperature magnet. The control variables are the amount of time the magnets are exposed to different temperatures‚ the type of magnet‚ and the

Does Adding Salt to Water Make it Boil at a Higher Temperature? Project Design Plan Everyone knows that water boils at 212°F‚ but does adding salt to a pot of water make it boil at a higher temperature? Being a person that cooks frequently at home‚ I wanted to test the debated idea that adding salt to my water will make it boil faster. One of my friends says it does raise the temperature and therefore cooks it faster. My other friend says it only helps it taste better. Literature

structures and temperature as having knowledge of it leads to a perfection in the structures formation. This is especially so as the structural parameters of FePO4 falls very closely to the values that are limited i.e. too high a pressure causing instability in the thermal conditions‚ thus it is in even greater importance that the amount of temperature used is studied in detail since it is a determinant of thermal stability of the parameters of the present structure.

Investigation into the photosynthetic activity of isolated chloroplasts from spinach beet to various light conditions. Introduction Chlorophyll‚ an important pigment in chloroplasts‚ is an essential component in photosynthesis; converting electromagnetic radiation from the sun into potential chemical energy. Photons excite electrons in chlorophyll which move through the electron transport chain‚ resulting in energy being stored in the bonds of ATP and NADPH. The flow of electron through the electron

‘Kinetics’ is the study of chemical reactions. The speed of a reaction can vary depending on many variables such as the nature of the reactants‚ particle size‚ concentration and temperature. For a chemical reaction to occur‚ there must be a collision between reactants. The reaction rate is slower when the reactants are large and complex molecules because it takes longer for the molecules to combine together creating a chemical reaction. More than 2000 years ago‚ Democritus‚ who was a philosopher
