BIOLOGY Biology is the study of life -- life in all of its grandeur. From the very small algae to the very large elephant‚ life has a certain wonder about it. With that in mind‚ how do we know if something is living? Is a virus alive or dead? What are the characteristics of life? These are all very important questions with equally important answers. Characteristics of Life Living tings include both the visible worlds of animals and plants as well as the invisible world of bacteria and viruses.On

Biology – HSC Online Extract from Biology Stage 6 Syllabus (Amended October 2002) © Board of Studies‚ NSW 9.2 Maintaining a balance: 1. Temperature range Background: All organisms are adapted to a particular environment with its characteristic temperature range. The temperature range allows the organism’s enzymes to control its metabolism by operating at their optimum efficiency within this range. Some organisms are adapted to live at high temperatures (80 - 100oC) and these are called thermophiles

Abstract For this experiment we tested the effects of different adrenalin concentrations (0.001%; 0.01%; 0.1%) on the daphnia flea. The daphnia was placed on a slide with cover slip in order to examine its heartbeat by using the microscope. Aim In this Lab we will study the effect of different concentrations of adrenalin on the heart rate daphnia‚ the water flea. It is expected to recognize a threshold of the daphnia in its reaction the three different adrenalin concentrations‚ in terms of heart rate

Propaganda 911 An exploration of propaganda in Fahrenheit 9/11 Michael Moore unleashes a barrage of propagandistic techniques in his movie‚ Fahrenheit 9/11. Moore uses card-stacking‚ omission‚ manipulation‚ insinuation‚ and virtually throws everything but the kitchen sink at President Bush. Although at times‚ it feels as if the kitchen sink is on its way. Moore uses these techniques to push his theme: George Bush + war = Bad; Michael Moore + Democrats = Good

Purpose: The purpose of doing this lab was to observe the regenerative patterns of planaria cells after a portion of their bodies was cut off. Background: 1. A blastema is a group of cells that forms at the site of a wound that eventually turns into the missing parts of a planaria. 2. Planaria fission occurs when a planaria is missing body parts. The organism attaches its tail-end to the ground and pulls itself forward using its head-end in order to tear itself into two parts. Then‚ each of these
