Introduction:Spirometry is the classic pulmonary function test‚ which measures the volume of air inspired or expired as a function of time. It can monitor quiet breathing and thereby measure tidal volume‚ and also trace deep inspirations and expirations to give information about vital capacity. Spirometrymay also be used to measure forced expiration rates and volumes and to compute FEV1/FVC ratios. Spirometry provides an objective measurement of lung function. It will measure the Expiratory Vital

a separate test tube. After setting up the test tubes‚ 1 mL of hydrogen peroxide was added to each tube of extract. The thickness of the foam layer that was created in each tube was measured in millimeters. The effect of Temperature on Catalase The effect temperature had on the action of each catalase. In the liver cells‚ the hypothesis was tested based on: Temperature has no effect on catalase activity. First‚ 50 μl of liver of extract was added along with 1 mL of water in four test tubes. Then

Unlike most coefficients in Physics‚ friction behaves differently depending on whether the object is at rest or at motion.

refracted‚ by the angles and plane faces of the prism and each wavelength of light is refracted by a slightly different amount” (Davidson‚ 2015). This means white light is every visible light‚ meaning white light would best be absorbed by plants. You could test this by conducting an experiment with several plants‚ all of the same height and breed‚ leaving half in the sunlight and moonlight and the other half under lights that aren’t white‚ blue‚ or yellow to see which light would have the best photosynthetic

Anxiety Lab Report Abstract: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between cognitive anxiety‚ somatic anxiety and self confidence in two different situations; non-stressful and stressful. It is to examine the effects on anxiety of a simple golf putting task. The stressor used in this experiment can be described as situational‚ namely the stressor of social comparison‚ the type of stressor that leads many performers to question their own ability which in turn evokes symptoms

Abstract: Bacteria consists of a large domain of prokaryotic microorganism in which can fight of antibiotics allowing the bacteria to become antibiotic resistant. In this lab report‚ we discover the most effective disinfectant that would work best in killing the harmful bacterial strain‚ Bacillus subtilis. KB testing or disc diffusion antibiotic sensitivity testing is measured through the diameter in millimeters to find how resistant the antibiotic to the bacteria. The hypothesis of Windex fell correctly

more concentrated solution of amylase (1>5)‚ the reaction rate will be faster; therefore test tube 1 will have the quickest reaction rate. The rate of disappearance of starch in amylase can be shown by diluting amylase in a 1:1 ratio but using Tube 1 to create Tube 2‚ Tube 2 (a mix of 1 and 2) to create Tube 3 and so on for 5 Tubes.
