High-fat Diet Contributes to Aggressive Behavior Hypothesis: High-fat diet contributes to aggressive behavior. Introduction: Aggression is a behavior that is destructive‚ hostile or violent and is intended cause harm‚ injury or damaged to the target person or object. Aggression and violence are the major problems in our society and one of the main contributions of this behavior is socioeconomic status (SES). According to the American Psychological association (APA)‚ socioeconomic status is

Title Testing Kool-Aid Mix for Food Dye Additives Purpose What food dye additives go into the food products we consume and how do these additives affect our perception of that food? Hypothesis If “Black Cherry” flavored Kool-Aid Mix appears red‚ then it will contain the food dye additive Red-40 that emits a red pigment. Background Food color not only affects the appearance of food‚ it also affects our perception of how food tastes. Tests have shown that consumers will choose colored drinks over

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium accounts for gene pools that do not change genetically over time. In this experiment‚ I intended to determine whether the sample population consisting of my fellow biology lab classmates would fall in the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with respect to the ALU insert from human chromosome 8. My hypothesis was that this sample population would fall in the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with respect to the ALU insert. To analyze whether this sample population was in the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium

Introduction For this experiment we compared and analyzed various DNA fragments in order to determine if these DNA fragments originated from the same individual. The learning objective for this lab is to gain a better understanding of how DNA fingerprinting works. In this lab the primary function is to determine which DNA fragments match the DNA fragment found on the crime scene. To determine if any of the DNA fragments match the fragment found at the crime scene‚ the DNA fragments must undergo the

Abstract: The Enzyme Lab results where when the liver was frozen‚ its reaction was fast‚ and when it was hot‚ it was slow‚ and the liver that was at room temperature reacted slowly to medium. Introduction: The Enzyme Lab is to conduct investigations to determine the most favorable conditions for the most efficient enzyme activity. Variables to be used testing include temperature‚ pH values and surface area. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of chemical reactions‚ which would otherwise

DON’T spill any water or have to restart. Make sure no air bubbles are clinging. Then take down final volume of water cylinder. 6. Dump the water out‚ then dry sample off. 7. Repeat this over with the other metal samples. * Hypothesis: * My hypothesis is that even though I will find the densities and names of the unknown metals its not going to be accurate because some water will spill out. Many people are going to come up with the different names because they aren’t care full enough

DNA FINGERPRINTING LAB REPORT DNA contains genetic material and information that makes up each individual trait. Every person can be identified by providing his or her genetic information based on a particular DNA strand. DNA information is an effective way of identifying persons if it is used properly. It is used to identify humans in different situations such as crime scenes‚ accident scenes‚ paternity testing‚ soldier remain identification‚ inheritance claims‚ missing person investigations‚

1. The overall goal of this lab was to carry out experiments that clearly demonstrate the different ways DNA genetic information‚ specifically transduction and conjugation. The first half of this experiment focused on exploring the mechanisms of transduction. This was done by creating a spot titer plate for phage carrying kanamycin resistance and E. coli. E. coli was then proven to have gained kanamycin resistance throughout transduction as demonstrated by its ability to grow on a medium containing

LAB REPORT GUIDELINES Writing a good lab report is an important goal of your science education‚ and gives you the opportunity to enhance your writing skills and to communicate your understanding of the scientific process to others. Your lab report for this semester will be a write up of your independent research project. This will follow the standard format for a lab report and should include the following sections: Title Introduction Materials and Methods Results Discussion Conclusion

Fifty milliliters of 1.5% agarose solution was swirled and inserted into the microwave for 1 to 2 minutes until the agarose solution was clear. The solution was put into a cooling bath of 60 °C for 15 minutes. After cooled‚ the agarose was poured into the prepared gel-casting tray for 30 minutes until it became solid. The well-forming comb was then removed and 1X TBE buffer was
