Determining the habitat preference of Artemia franciscana by creating artificial gradients of three abiotic factors: light‚ pH‚ and temperature Introduction In the study of ecology‚ species are often described as generalists if they live in broad environmental conditions or specialists if they live in narrow or specific environmental conditions (Reece et al. 2011). Artemia franciscana‚ the organism under study‚ is a well known generalist that has adapted it’s reproductive strategy to allow

Termite Lab Report The effect of ink on termite behavior Abstract Termites produce special chemicals within their bodies called pheromones. Because termites are usually found inside dark areas‚ pheromones help them communicate in these places. Past studies have suggested that ink inside ballpoint pens contains pheromones‚ causing termites to follow any trail created by the ink. If a pathway is drawn with an ink pen‚ then a termite will be attracted to the path and trace it due to the pheromones

Biology Laboratory Report MEASURING RATE OF WATER UPTAKE BY A PLANT SHOOT USING A POTOMETER Introduction All plants need salts minerals‚ water‚ CO2 and O2. To fulfill their requirements different plants use different ways. Lower plants use diffusion‚ however higher plants use vascular tissue that is located in the middle of the root and in the vascular bundles in the stem. The transpiration is the important process in the plant. The main reason is that transportation

Behavior of Gases and Absolute Zero Determination Lab Report Experiment 4 Introduction In this experiment we measured the relationship between temperature‚ volume‚ and pressure. Objectives: Conduct a set of experiments‚ each of which illustrates a gas law. Gather data to identify the gas law described by each activity. Complete the calculations necessary to evaluate the gas law in each activity. From your results‚ derive a single mathematical relationship that relates pressure‚ volume‚ and

9/23/12 Lab Report #1 Meter Reading Summary The objective of this experiment was to learn how to read different meters like the D.C. volt meter and the D.C. amperes meter. In all meters each big line is a major division and each little line in between is a minor division‚ and if there is a line smaller than the minor division lines then that would be a sub minor division. Each meter has a low‚ medium‚ and high range. For example on the D.C. volt meter the ranges go from top to bottom 150‚ 15‚

Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to see how the colour of an apple would change (browning) over time‚ when placed in different conditions. When referring to the term “browning”‚ it is meant to imply the change of colour that occurs inside the apple‚ giving an appearance that is distasteful (Di Guardo et al.‚ 2013). Specifically‚ within this lab the apple was cut into 4 pieces with 3 pieces being placed on a weigh boat‚ and a 4th piece placed in a beaker of water. These weigh boats were
