Biology 1010 is a course that introduces students to the basic biological phenomena in all living organisms. It focuses on the different molecular levels of organization‚ heredity in evolution‚ genetics and reproduction. Through this course‚ I was able to master three essential concepts such as Mendel’s Law of Segregation‚ enzymes‚ and photosynthesis. Gregor Mendel was an Augustinian monk that argued that parental traits are passed on to their offspring discrete “heritable factors”. Heritable factors

Pre-Lab 1 Assignment Quantitative Analysis of Biomolecules Biochemical analysis involves the characterization of biomolecules within a sample using appropriate laboratory techniques. There are two principal approaches: 1. Qualitative analysis – where a sample is analyzed to determine whether a biomolecule is present or absent. As an example‚ a blood sample might be analyzed for a specific antibody or a bacterial cell might be probed for a nucleic acid sequence. 2. Quantitative analysis

Courtney S. 4th Period SINKERS and FLOATERS Purpose:The purpose of this investigation is to provide an overview of photosynthesis and to design and conduct an experiment to test the factors that affect the rate of photosynthesis. Hypothesis:If 10 leaf discs are placed into 2 plungers and placed under a lamp the CO2 rate will speed up the process of photosynthesis. Materials: -Fluorescent lamp - Hole punch - 1 Sharpie marker -20 leaf discs -Syringes -12 mL cups Data Table Start 2 4 6 8
