AP Lab #5 Plant Pigments/Photosynthesis I. Identifying the Effects of Different Variables of Light and Carbon Dioxide on the Rate of Photosynthesis and Observing the Separation of Pigments Through Chromatography II. Introduction Plants have a variety of pigments‚ all of which absorb a different color of light. The three main pigments are chlorophyll a‚ chlorophyll b and carotenoids. Chlorophyll a is the primary plant pigment that absorbs red and blue light‚ which ultimately appears green to the human eye

Stop-and-Wait Protocol for a Noisy Channel is a complicated protocol because it has many functions that needs to be performed. However‚ regardless of this reason it is also a very useful and successful protocol. One of the main operations that this protocol does is by assigning a sequence number in the header of each frame that it sends to the receiver and using this number to establish whether a frame was lost and whether it needs to be resend. We will be examining the process that this protocol entails

Abstract: The Enzyme Lab results where when the liver was frozen‚ its reaction was fast‚ and when it was hot‚ it was slow‚ and the liver that was at room temperature reacted slowly to medium. Introduction: The Enzyme Lab is to conduct investigations to determine the most favorable conditions for the most efficient enzyme activity. Variables to be used testing include temperature‚ pH values and surface area. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of chemical reactions‚ which would otherwise

Moment of Inertia and Rotational Motion Garret Hebert PHY 2311 Tues 1:00 garret.hebert@hindscc.edu Abstract: During this lab we will study what rotational Inertia is and how different shapes of masses and different masses behave inertially when compared to each other. We will specifically study the differences of inertia between a disk and a ring. We will use increasing forces to induce angular acceleration of both a disk and a ring of a certain mass. We will then then measure the differences
