AP Biology Lab Report Investigation 12: Fruit Fly Behavior Abstract: In the lab that was conducted‚ students were supposed to examine the tendencies of fruit flies‚ specifically Drosophila’s‚ to move toward or away from important stimuli that aide in their survival‚ also known as taxis. Another objective for this lab was to identify the patterns and relationships between environmental factors and a living organism. Students are supposed to use two bottles to allow the flies to choose which

The purpose of our experiment was to synthesize aspirin from acetyl anhydride‚ salicylic acid‚ and sulfuric acid. And then determine the relative purity of the synthesized sample. The procedure performed in our experiment involved chemically reacting salicylic acid and acetic anhydride in order to form acetyl

Lab 1‚ Exercise 1 • Based on the information in Table 2‚ what patterns do you observe? The number of fish that I observed in a body of water increases until the dissolved oxygen was at 12 ppm. After that point‚ the number of fish declines slightly. • Develop a hypothesis relating to the amount of dissolved oxygen measured in the water sample and the number of fish observed in the body of water. When the dissolved oxygen levels increase‚ the number of fish that

Lab 5 DECOMPOSITION (Nov 2‚ 2011) Introduction: Decomposition is the breakdown of organic material into its smaller molecules and elements. (This term is generally considered as a biotic process but one may find it also used to describe an abiotic process‚ e.g.‚ due to weathering.) The decomposing organisms may use the release of elements for nutrients and by breaking apart the carbon-carbon bonds in organic matter this can release energy for them. These smaller molecules and nutrient elements

Cassie Browne Anthony Lulgjuraj Fly Lab Report Friday 9:30am Mutation #620 X Mutation #644 1) The vial labeled Mutation #620 contained female flies that displayed a mutation in eye color. This mutation causes a change in eye pigment from wild type (bright red) to a dark‚ reddish brown. The males possessed mutation #644. It is a mutation in wing morphology that reduces wing size. A controlled cross was conducted between these two true-breeding mutant flies. Their progeny (F1) being heterozygous for

Too many house-flies are coming into people’s homes during the summer when they have their doors and windows open. This is a problem for the people living in these homes as house-flies carry diseases that they transmit onto food around the home. We need to come up with a solution that decreases the number of house-flies coming into the home while allowing people to keep their doors open. After considering numerous ideas I concluded that the best way to do this is via a eugenol based fly spray. Due to
