01) The Cell Structure and function Abstract In this lab the structures of various cells were viewed through a compound microscope. The bacteria in yogurt was viewed a long with a slice of potato‚ and a thin skin of red onion. The potato was dyed with iodine while the red onion was dyed with methane blue. The students had to assemble the first three slides. Two more slides were provided these are the yeast and protozoa cells. Those two are also viewed

CELL REPRODUCTION DNA is the cell’s genetic material; chromosomes are the carriers of this genetic information. In proka-ryotes‚ the chromosome is a single circle of DNA. In eukaryotes‚ each chromosome is a complex of DNA and histone proteins found in the nucleus. BINARY FISSION Prokaryotic cells reproduce via binary fission. In this process‚ DNA Is replicated‚ and the cell splits in two roughly equal parts‚ each with a copy of the cell’s DNA. EUKARYOTIC CELL CYCLE Eukaryotic cells reproduce

Methods for studying cells in the lab Centrifugation A centrifuge is a device for separating particles from a solution according to their size‚ shape‚ density‚ viscosity of the medium and rotor speed. Centrifugation can be used to separate cells from one culture or to isolate an organelle from the rest of the cell. The process relies on speed; the faster and longer the particle is centrifuged‚ the smaller the particles are that will be separated. Separation occurs by causing the larger particles

Lab design –Voltaic Cells Aim Of Experiment In this experiment‚ we are going to make a battery by making an electron current between the metals Zinc and Copper. We aim two study the voltaic cells and the transfer of electrons from the metal to the ion. The tendency for the electrons to flow from one chemical to another‚ such as from the zinc metal to the copper ion as shown here‚ is something that can be channeled and controlled. Channeling the flow of electrons is what we will take up in this

Name: Serene Tan Subject: Chemistry SL Date: 5th December 2012 Title: The effect of concentration of electrolyte on the potential difference in voltaic cell. Aim: To investigate the effect of concentration of electrolyte of the potential difference in voltaic cell. Introduction: Chemical reactions involving the transfer of electrons from one reactant to another are called oxidation-reduction reactions or redox reactions. In a redox reaction‚ two half-reactions occur; one reactant gives

Willy Rupprecht Date(s) performed: October 2 - 3‚ 2012 Gravimetric Analysis of an Unknown Group 1 Metal Carbonate Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to determine the identity of a Group 1 metal carbonate compound by gravimetric analysis. Procedure: The unknown carbonate is weighed and then dissolved in water. A solution of CaCl2 (calcium chloride) is added to the metal carbonate solution to precipitate the carbonate ions as CaCO3 (calcium carbonate). The precipitate is then filtered‚ dried

Atomic Mass of “Pennium” Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to calculate the atomic mass of “pennium” using pennies made before 1982 and pennies made 1982 or after. Hypothesis: The atomic mass of the pennium will be the average of the average masses of a pre-1982 penny and a post 1982 penny. Procedure: 1. Obtain a bag of pennies 2. Determine the total number of pennies in the bag. Record the value. 3. Sort the pennies by date into 2 piles. One pile should consist of pennies older than 1982
