AP/IB Biology Lab Assessment The effect of various fruit and vegetable cell membranes on their water potential Independent variable: Type of fruit or vegetable. (Produce used: Russet potatoes‚ Pascal celery‚ Gala apple‚ Navel orange‚ and Imperator carrot). The fruit or vegetable will be placed in six 56.7 gram cups‚ ranging with sucrose molarities of 0 (distilled water)‚ 0.2‚ 0.4‚ 0.6‚ 0.8‚ 1.0‚ with 5 trials‚ leading to 30 cups for each produce variable. Dependent variable: The water potential

Sarah Clay Internal Assessment Design Question: Does the caffeine in Coca-Cola affect blood pressure? Hypothesis: The amount of caffeine in Coca-Cola will cause to the adrenal glands‚ located on the top of the kidneys‚ to release more adrenaline which will in turn cause an increase in blood pressure. As the amount of Coca-Cola decreases‚ so will the difference between initial blood pressure and blood pressure after the consumption of the caffeine. Variables: Independent Variables | Dependent

How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis? Does the amount of light intensity increase the rate of photosynthesis in a pondweed? Design aspect 1 Introduction My investigation will be centered on measuring the rate of photosynthesis and whether or not light intensity will affect it. The formula of photosynthesis is Carbon dioxide + water oxygen + glucose with the arrow referring to light energy as a means to convert the CO2 and H2O into oxygen and glucose. Logically‚ one would

How to find success in IB Biology The International Baccalaureate program offers many classes in the vast majority of SL and HL credits with the program and does so with the science section of the program. There are many different HL science classes that can be taken in IB but here at Edison‚ there are only two classes offered once you become a senior who is looking to take an HL science class. The two choices are HL Physics and HL Biology. Both are arguably the toughest IB classes offered at Edison

Brian Toohey Biology Mrs. Heimforth 12/06/10 Diffuse the Osmosis Section 2: Introduction Step 1: The scientific concept of this lab was to see how osmosis transferred the substance through the cells to reach equilibrium. Step 2: My hypothesis was that the bag with 60% sucrose then it would be heavier than the bag with tap water or 30% sucrose. I thought this because I thought that there would be more of a substance change in 60% sucrose. Section 3: Methods First get 3 pieces of the same

increasing the glucose concentration will increase the amount of C02 produced which will suggest that the rate of cell respiration has increased. [pic] II. Hypothesis • While a hypothesis isn’t needed and sometimes it’s not possible‚ usually in biology you will have a hypothesis. If you include a hypothesis to help focus your research question then it needs to be an “if….then…” statement that includes the independent and dependent variables. Your hypothesis should be supported with an explanation

AP Biology August 23‚ 2012 Egg Osmosis Lab Definition of osmosis: The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane from high to low concentrations Hypothesis: If I place an egg in vinegar‚ then the outer layer of the egg is going to become slimy and look like rubber. It will also become larger and bubbles will form on and around the egg. Hypothesis: If I place an egg in corn syrup‚ then the egg will become small and the outer layer will not look like rubber any longer. Day one:

Transcription and Translation Notes for IB Diploma Year 1 DNA is a huge information database that carries the complete set of instructions for making all the proteins a cell will ever need! Although there are only four different bases in DNA (A‚ C‚ G and T)‚ the order in which the bases occur determines the information to make a protein‚ just like the 26 letters of the alphabet combine to form words and sentences: Compare: RAT - TAR - ART - same 3 letters; completely different meanings.
