Observance of Artificial Selection: Technical Study of Wisconsin Fast Plants 5th and 6th period AP Biology Due: 12/16/13 Abstract This experiment was used to explore the Theory of Evolution created by Charles Darwin. The use of natural selection was apparent in the artificial modification of an organism ’s traits which aided in this investigation. Through this experiment the Wisconsin Fast Plant was used. It is a fast-growing organism developed to improve the resistance to disease in

Mary Fenning Lab 12 Reflection‚ Refraction‚ & Lenses Introduction The purpose of is lab is to observe ray models of light and how light refracts and reflects through a straight line and Snell’s Law. Procedures Setup and materials: Part IV: Procedure: Using the slit plate observe the rays on the viewing screen set Rotate the slit plate until the slits are horizontal. Record what image looks like at the different angles Trace the rays onto a white piece of paper and extend the lines

ASTR 101 Size of the Solar System Name _______ Section __ Overview · Become familiar with the scale of the planets vs. their distances. · Get an overview of the solar system. · 50 points are possible Introduction It is easy to flip to the index of an astronomy textbook to discover that‚ say‚ the Sun lies 150 million kilometers away from Earth. It is far more difficult (if not impossible)‚ however‚ to picture this distance in our mind. In this exercise

Exploring the virtual reality conjecture Brian Whitworth Introduction Computers today simulate entire worlds‚ with their own time‚ space and objects‚ but that our world could be so is normally a topic of science fiction‚ not physics. Yet that the world is illusory has a long history. In Buddhism‚ the world expresses the Universal Mind‚ in Hinduism it is Maya‚ the illusion of "God’s play”‚ and to Plato it was just shadows flickering on a wall1. That the world is digital is also not new‚ as to

Introduction Gene expression‚ the process by which genotype is expressed as phenotype‚ is one of the most important biological functions living organisms are capable of carrying out. Although a cell may have thousands or hundreds of thousands of genes‚ only the ones needed this is determined by the environment are turned on at any given time. In bacteria‚ temperature‚ pH‚ and other chemical agents all affect the expression of genes. In this lab‚ the effect of temperature change on the gene w

African Diaspora and the World After reading the short story “Diaspora” by Joanne Hyppolite‚ I got a vivid understanding of how diaspora can have an effect on one’s identity. Over the past month we have studied many theories and concepts concerning race‚ gender‚ and politics. There are three theories that capture the essence of Joanne Hyppolite’s worldview as a Haitian growing up in America: intersectionality‚ identity‚ and diaspora. Individuals oftentimes experience the theory of Intersectionality

diploid stage. In yeast‚ the haploid cells are n=16 and the diploid cells are 2n=32. S. cerevisiae has two haploid mating types MATɑ and MATa. When the haploids mate‚ the diploids formed are heterozygous at the mating locus. In this experiment‚ the genotypes of the two respective stains were172 MATa ade2 his3 leu2 trp1 ura3 can1 and 196 MATɑ ade2 his4 leu2 trp1 ura3 can1. Each strain has a mutation at the his locus which means that the yeast is unable to grow unless it is in

Date A Typology of Virtual Teams: Implications for Effective Leadership In this article Bell and Kozlowski (2002) examine the technology changes in today’s business organizations. According to Bell and Kozlowski as organizations become more complicated and evolved their organizational systems‚ structures‚ and processes become more complex as well. As a result‚ many organizations take on a horizontal organizational structure and team-based work structure identified as virtual teams to adapt to the
