Shannon Yeh October 28‚ 2013 Animal Dentition Laboratory Assignment (Figure 1.) Tooth Sharpness (degrees) (Figure 2.) Relative Tooth Width (mm.) Results: The dental formula is a convention used by mammalogists to determine the tooth number and tooth arrangements. The dental formula is calculated by counting the number of incisors‚ canines‚ premolars‚ and molars present in the upper jaw (one side) and counting the number of incisors‚ canines‚ premolars‚ and molars

One purpose of the experiment was to gain an understanding of diffusion and osmosis‚ specifically in context of a plant or animal cell reaction to an isotonic‚ hypotonic‚ or hypertonic solution. Another objective was to understand the nuances of simple diffusion‚ facilitated diffusion‚ and active transport and to explicate the characteristics affecting the rates of diffusion. The next objective was to be able to explicate the partition coefficient and its influence on hemolysis. The final objective

Osmosis Lab: The Incredible Egg How does the solution a cell is in effect the movement of substances into and out of the cell? Eggs were soaked in vinegar for twenty-four hours before the lab to dissolve the shell‚ then placed them into the distilled water. Then the eggs were taken out and dried by the paper towel to measure their weight on the electronic scale. First egg weighted 78.92g‚ most of the parts of it’s skin was white translucent‚ and was spongy. After the egg was submerged into the

Lab Report INTRODUCTION: This experiment is being done to find out what happens to a carrot or a potato if you place them in two different solutions. Osmosis has a lot to do with this experiment and is the movement of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Osmosis only deals with water and is a type of diffusion. The difference between all three solutions is that in a hypertonic solution the cells fluid rushes out of the cell and causes it to shrivel. In a hypotonic

Title: Aim: to observe and find out how much starch grains are distributed within a transverse section of a banana Apparatus: banana‚ iodine solution‚ ruler‚ white tile‚ stopwatch‚ microscope slide‚ coverslip‚ filter paper‚ Light microscope Method: 1) A piece of banana was place on a tile and a section was cut across the piece of banana about 5mm thick. 2) The surface of the banana was covered with iodine solution and left for about one minute. 3) The distribution

Version 2: Identifying Dominant Plant Species 1- Hypothesis Based on the results‚ the bunchberry plant‚ with a scientific name of Cornus canadensis‚ was most frequently seen in station four‚ the ecotone‚ and second most in station five‚ the forest which is most likely in the lower forest since it has a similar environment to that of station four‚ and third most in station three‚ the bog. It was not as frequently seen in areas of higher elevation such as the old field. It should be noted that

Biology 20 IB Design Lab Does increasing or decreasing the ph level of a 3% concentration H2O2 (l) solution affect the amount of oxygen released between 15.0ml of the solution and a 5g sample of liver? The reaction is measured by the difference in mass of a balloon that is used to capture the amount of gas released by the catalase enzyme found in liver reacting with a basified 3% H2O2 (l) and an acidified 3% H2O2 (l) . Chemical reactions occur when two or more molecules interact and the molecules

Reverse Osmosis Application Assignment Osmosis is the dissemination of water atoms through a semi-permeable layer from areas of high to low concentration in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentration on both sides. In real life osmosis is found in roots of plants retain water from the dirt‚ and kidneys taking water from blood [5]. Reverse osmosis is the removal of solute from water by applying pressure to the water and moving the solution through a semi-permeable membrane. It is

TOPIC 6‚ 11‚ & OPTION H: HUMAN HEALTH AND PHYSIOLOGY Digestive System Includes all the structures that are concerned with bringing food into the body to provide for the needs of the body’s cells. Each cell in an organism relies on a continuous expenditure of energy. Fats‚ carbs‚ and proteins are broken down during cellular metabolism and the energy derived from them is used to make ATP. The digestive system deals with: Ingestion‚ which is the bringing of nutrients into the body. Mechanical
