this is significant activity of the neurons to allow us to understand abnormality in the nerve that cause disorders. The objective of this study was to trigger a compound nerve action potentials (CAPs) and examine the effects of a stimulus voltage on a nerve and inspect their threshold‚ refractory period and also their velocity. Compound nerve action potentials (CAPs) are summed action potential of one nerve‚ one nerve consists of many neurons. We used the sciatic Lithobates pipiens nerve in this

Exercise 1 Polymers – An introduction to Organic Chemistry Group 3 Jude Marchoni C. Tampus Meryl Marie Susan Chua Pearl Pontillas Paolo Pepito Gaia Casas I. Abstract: (Paolo) In this experiment we will be testing what would happen to the polymer when we add borax to it. A polymer is a compound made up of large molecules often in a solid state. Polymers are chemically formed by 100 to 10‚000 small molecules called "monomers". Monomers occur in molecular units or patterns

The aim for this experiment is to investigate the effects of different storage environments on organic and non-organic bananas‚ to see which one lasts the longest over a period of time. The study was separated into 5 groups that were each labeled to a location in a standard family home that would‚ over time‚ begin to affect the overall form and characteristics of the bananas. Throughout the experiment‚ it was found that “Group 2 – Impact of Air Exposure‚” lasted longer than any other group. Following
