Introduction: Coccinellidae‚ which is more familiar known as the ladybug‚ comes from a family of small beetles. However‚ one may jump to conclusions after hearing their names‚ but ladybugs are not all females! Their color ranges from a red to a reddish-orange and even to a yellow color along with black spots on their hard-shell wing covers. Even though they are small bugs‚ they are very predatory. The ladybug’s mouth includes mandibles which is another word for their strong jaws (Hussain‚ et al

speed up chemical reactions that take place in cells. Enzymes can be found in both liver and potato. They provide a site where reactants can be brought together to react. These reactants are called substrates that fin into the enzyme. The changing of heat‚ surface area‚ chemicals‚ and pH will denature the shape of the enzyme‚ not allowing it to do its function. Testing on peroxidase- an enzyme- will be done on an animal enzyme (chicken liver) and a plant enzyme (potato). For testing Hydrogen Peroxide

Lab Report: Hard Water Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to determine whether a liquid is hard water or not. Background: Hard water is the water that has a high amount of mineral in it‚ usually Ca2+ and Mg+. These cations enter the source of water by leaching from minerals within a wet underground layer of water- bearing rock‚ or an aquifer. According to the WHO‚ hard water is not harmful to human’s health but it’s a serious problem in the water industry. Household plumbing and appliances

higher pH is alkaline. pH is playing a important role in the development of renal calculi. Acidic urine will lead to xanthine‚ cystine uric acid‚ and calcium oxalate stones. However alkaline urine can cause calcium carbonate‚ calcium phosphate‚ and magnesium phosphate stones. For protein‚ normally there will be no protein or only small amount of protein in the urine‚ Protein in the urine may be a sign of kidney disease. If the result finds positive of the protein in the urine‚ it should be followed by

Stir for 10 minutes‚ then add dropwise a solution of 0.63 g sodium acetate in 2.5 mL distilled water. Heat the resulting mixture on a hot plate to between 60 and 70oC for 15 minutes‚ with stirring‚ then cool to room temperature. Isolate the product by suction filtration and wash it with 6.0 mL of cold distilled water. Suction dry for 15 minutes‚ then dry

The particular conditions that had to exist for this to apply were that the population had no mutation‚ had no natural selection‚ was a large population‚ had only random mating‚ and had no migration. For the cases to follow later in the lab‚ Cases 1 and 2 exemplify Hardy-Weinberg conditions. All of the others either have selection or not enough members in the population‚ which will be the most-closely observed

Introduction and Purpose: This lab focuses on how weight affects the time it takes for a rotocopter to fall from a drop height of 1 and 2 meter(s) respectively. The primary goal of this lab is to investigate and explain the relationship of these two factors. During the process of conducting this experiment‚ learning to design a lab will also be achieved. Research Question: What is the effect of weight on the time it takes for a rotocopter to fall from a drop height of 1 and 2 meter(s)? Variable
