Scientific Writing and Standard Components of a Lab Report INTRODUCTION Writing is a powerful tool. Effective communication is necessary to succeed in any field. As a professional‚ you must communicate with both your colleagues‚ and the community at large. Writing is the means of showing the value of your work. The specific style of writing in science is based on the unique audience of readers. In addition‚ writing allows one to organize one’s thoughts and clarify ideas‚ and it fosters abstract

frog moth butterfly Grass Discussion In the pratical numerous organisms were detected; most of these organisms could be said to have 4 to eight legs. It is evident that some could fly and some could not ly. The trophic levels ranged from one to four; while the auto-troph was a tamarind tree and some grass. The herbivore was a butterfly which fed entirely on the tamarind tree. Also‚ a carnivore which fed on more than one

Period 1 10/14/12 Enzyme lab Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up the process of chemical reactions. They are also proteins‚ and most enzymes activities occur within organism. They decrease activation energy‚ energy that is needed to start a chemical reaction. Enzymes are substrate specific substrates ending in "-ase"‚ enzymes ending in "-ase". External factors‚ such as temperature‚ pH‚ and concentration of the substrate‚ affect the enzymes activity in the lab‚ pectase and cellulase will

Experiment on Cellular respiration of Mung Beans Seeds with the Effects of Temperature Introduction: ATP is generated from aerobic respiration from the use of biosynthetic pathways. Glycolysis is where respiration starts in the cells and produces ATP‚ NADH‚ and 2 pyruvate molecules from the oxidation of six carbon carbohydrate and glucose. Even if oxygen is there or not‚ enzymes are mediated in the cytoplasm. The electron transport chain‚ chemiosmosis‚ and aerobic respiration use NADH molecule

and familiarize ourselves with their taxonomic levels through the organism’s mechanisms of feeding‚ motility‚ and reproduction. Our group used the prior knowledge we possessed about the Hydra‚ Rotifer‚ Gammarus‚ and Planaria organisms to complete the lab. We knew that all of these small invertebrates have a freshwater habitat. Each organism differs in taxonomic levels from Genus to Species. We knew that the Hydra reproduces with one of two methods: 1) by “budding” which is an asexual method of reproduction

Siddharth Tirumala Mrs. Kiriazis IB1 Biology 22 August 2013 Diffusion Lab Write-Up Research Question: How does the temperature of the water affect the diffusion of food coloring? Hypothesis: Food coloring will dissolve faster as the temperature of the water increases. Variables: Name of Variable | What is it? | How is it measured? | Units | Range of the data | Independent | Temp. of Water | Thermometer | oC (Celsius) | | Dependent | Rate of diffusion of food coloring | Stopwatch

Question 1 What are probable sources of acid precipitation in your community? What impact can this have on the environment in your region? Some of the probable sources of acid precipitation is Fog‚ and rain. During the summer it hardly rains which makes it hard for our crops to grow‚ also since we are in the valley it makes it hard for us to get the water that we need. During the fall it gets very foggy in the mornings and it makes it very difficult to see while your driving. Prevailing

This file of BIO 100 Week 4 Discussion Questions shows the solutions to the following problems: DQ 1: Post your response to the following: What are some of the benefits of squeezing so much data into virtually every cell in the body? Why did humans not evolve with one central repository of DNA rather than having it replicated throughout the body? Assume that the hereditary information carried in genes and DNA is responsible for many differences observed in humans and other living things. How

What are the names of the species used in this experiment? Which of these species was the most tolerant of increased acidity in the aquarium? Which species was the least tolerant? The names of the species used in the experiment were clam‚ dragonfly‚ and side swimmer. The specie that was the most tolerant was the dragonfly and the least tolerant was the clam. Describe how acid precipitation affects ecosystems. Acid precipitation affects the ecosystem‚ for example‚ lowering ph in water when it
