maybe too long so the temperature was not precise. Scientists may have forgotten one of the tests‚ so that data is lost. Specific errors include measuring the entire test tube from top to bottom instead of measuring the exact distance traveled by the filter paper‚ making the test results not plausible. The results of this lab proved several things. The results of the first test show that a higher enzyme concentration causes a faster rate of the substrate being broken down. This means that the effect

reflexes are put into effect via the nervous system. (1) The Patellar reflex‚ or Knee-Jerk reflex‚ is used to test the nervous tissue in the spinal cord from L2-L4. The patellar reflex is known as a “reflex arc”. It is a negative feedback circuit that is made of three components. The first is a sensory‚ or afferent neuron which takes in information from a sensory stimulus‚ and translates it to an electrical signal‚ which then gets sent to the central nervous system. The second piece is an interneuron

Rebecca Saady ~Naked Egg Drop~ 24 May 2014 Abstract A wondrous thing is defying nature‚ which is the purpose of a device built to stop an egg from breaking at a height of 7 meters. The egg will fall onto a piece of paper‚ with cotton underneath‚ which is supported by a net of rubber bands‚ which are hoisted up by thick wood sticks. Also balloons are tied below to catch some of the force‚ and then just drop the egg. After the egg was dropped‚ it was a success; it landed smoothly and

Grade 11 physics: SPH3U1-01 | Physics Lab Report | Specific Heat Capacity of Brass | | Jin Jin Shi | 2012/12/6 | Instructor: Mr. Nailer | I. Introduction The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a solid body depends on its change in temperature (ΔT)‚ its mass (m)‚ and an intrinsic characteristic of the material forming the body called specific heat (cp). The heat is calculated from the equation II. Purpose The purpose of this laboratory is to determine

Unfortunately the time constraint was caused by and outside influence unrelated to the lab itself‚ and so next time we could do a lab under normal conditions where there are no outside disturbances. There were weight differences in the potatoes which could have caused thicker potatoes to absorb more than others. It was a little impossible to obtain the same

The experimented value was drastically different from the accepted value‚ which caused the percent of error to be extraordinarily high. The experimental marshmallow’s energy per gram was .073 Cal/g while the accepted marshmallow’s energy per gram was 3.33 Cal/g. The percent error for the marshmallow was 97.8%. The experimental CHEEZ-IT’s energy per gram was .531 Cal/g while the accepted CHEEZ-IT’s energy per gram was 5 Cal/g. The CHEEZ-IT’S percent error was 90%. The experimental Cheetos’ energy

This purpose of the lab was to observe and compare the reactivity of the elements within groups and the reactivity of the groups themselves. The elements of each group were reacted with fire‚ acid (HCl or HNO3)‚ or in deionized water. According to the observations‚ the most reactive group was the alkali metals. Since the alkali metals are in group 1‚ they only have one valence electron and can easily lose this electron. As you move towards the right of the periodic table‚ the number of electrons

AP Bio Block B Photosynthesis Lab 12/6/12 Introduction: Photosynthesis is affected by light intensity‚ water‚ and temperature. Plants grow more abundantly because the weather is warm. Carbon Dioxide given off by animals is consumed by plants that replace the oxygen animals take it. Experimentation will help understanding how plants are vital because of the oxygen they release. If leaf disks in the experiment release oxygen‚ they will undergo photosynthesis and float. If
