The Microscope Lab Brandy Talley PRCC Biology Lab Online June 13‚ 2013 Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to learn about different types of microscopes that we use today‚ learn the parts of the microscope‚ and how to properly use a microscope by exploring various slides. Materials: *Microscope *Letter “e” slide *Onion root slide *Bacterial capsule slide *Cheek smear slide Lab Notes: 1.What is the difference between a compound

Presence of Alu element within PV92 on chromosome 18 in a mixed ethnical population and its connection with humans’ ancestral origins By Shiyu Song Biology 155Q LAB-A: 14:30-17:30 Dr. Jacob April 17th 2013 Abstract The Alu insertion (+) within PV92 on chromosome 16 usually reflects a person’s ancestral origin. This study aimed to find the correlation between the presences of Alu insertion (+) within PV92 on chromosome 16 within a population. We used PCR to detect the Alu insertions

Mr. Mihordea Motion of Atoms and Molecules lab summary In this lab the standard heat of combustion of magnesium was calculated by using the calorimeter. Also‚ the point of combustion of magnesium was to see how much heat would be released from fireworks such as sparklers. The concept of this lab was to find the difference in temperature from the beginning to end of combustion of magnesium and calculate the standard heat

Ketchup Lab Report Problem: People visiting fast food restaurants complained that ketchup was dripping onto their fingers and clothes. What could we do to insure that the ketchup will not drop all over the customers? Hypothesis: If I put one ketchup packet in a hotter bath then it will move faster down the styrofoam plate. Independent Variable: The temperature Dependent Variable: The viscosity of the ketchup’s “runniness” Constants: The type of ketchup

Introduction Reactive oxygen species (ROS) include super oxide ion (O2-)‚ hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and hydroxyl radical (HO- ) are the causative agents to produce oxidative stress. ROS are produced by two independent pathways: mainly the mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and cellular responses to bacterial invasion‚ xenobiotic and cytokines. To counteract the formation of ROS‚ a number of antioxidant proteins have been described. These proteins are superoxide dismutase‚ catalase‚ glutathione peroxidase

Table 8.1- Combustion of magnesium ribbon Observations Reaction was exothermic; magnesium ribbon burned and was glowing a bright white color when ignited. Reactants: Mg and O2 Products: MgO Balanced chemical equation 2Mg + O2 2MgO Table 8.2- Combustion of heptane Observations When holding test tube inverted over heptane flame‚ condensation formed against top walls of the test tube. When the burning splint was added the walls of the test tube became less foggy from the condensation

Maria Martinez Anatomy and physiology II TTH 2:20 “Demonstrating the Importance of Surfactant: Lab Report” Introduction Surfactant is an essential component for the respiratory system to function properly. This experiment was administrated to help us understand better the role of surfactant in the alveolar system. Surfactant is a detergent-like substance produced by the Type II alveolar cells in the alveoli. Surfactant is produced to make it easier for people to breath by reducing the surface

The purpose of the lab was to measure the effectiveness of antacids at neutralizing excess stomach acid. A neutralization reaction is when an acid and a base react to form water and salt. To illustrate‚ H+ hydrogen ions from the acid react with the hydroxide ions OH- from the base. Antacids are taken to relieve heartburn or indigestion caused by excess stomach acid. For instance‚ antacids such as alka-seltzers contain baking soda which is highly reactive with acids‚ settling the discomfort of indigestion
