The Bobo Experiment was performed in 1961 by Albert Bandura to try and prove that people‚ especially children‚ learn their social skills and behaviors from copying or mimicking adults in their lives rather than through heredity genes. Bandura wanted to show‚ by using aggressive and non-aggressive adult-actors‚ that a child would be apt to replicate and learn from the behavior of a trusted adult (Shuttleworth‚ M. 2008). These issues have been present for many years‚ even before the media used these

of eating fast food and how fast food has become a part of American culture. The success of McDonald’s has been astounding and has made a huge impact on the American food industry. Fast food has become such a huge part of American life. McDonald’s brags about 31‚000 restaurants worldwide‚ which means almost all Americans have quick access to a restaurant. Every day‚ 43 percent of Americans will eat fast food. Even very young children can recognize the McDonald’s logo. But fast food isn’t just quick

an important role in the freshwater food chains and serve as food for other freshwater organisms such as fish. They are also commonly used to test for chemical toxicity in water. Since Daphnia have transparent body‚ it is easier to observe their heart rates‚ and other visceral organ systems. Its small heart rate is easily visible when viewed under a microscope. A change in its heart rate plays a crucial role in determining whether

In the eye opening documentary‚ The Human Experiment‚ directed by Don Hardy and Dana Nachman‚ the many health dangers of thousands of harmful chemicals in everyday products are exposed. The film explores the lives of people who have been affected by the ubiquitous chemicals found in our food and our homes. The film addresses the battle against powerful industries that are determined to keep consumers in the dark about the dangers of many of their products. The fight against dangerously lethal chemicals

SUMMARY The aim is to observe distillation process of ethanol-water solution and to measure the alcohol content after process in this experiment. 500 ml of solution with an alcohol content of 32% (v/v) is used for this experiment. Temperature values are recorded for every 10 ml alcohol obtained in the flask. The process is repeated in our experiment and for the first process‚ the data collection process continues until the distillate reaches to 200 ml. The concentration of alcohol is measured for

Effect of Caffeine on Daphnia Heart Rate: Aim: To investigate the effect of caffeine on the heart rate in Daphnia. Hypothesis: My hypothesis is that as the caffeine content increases‚ the heart rate if the Daphnia increases. Equipment: * Culture of water flea – Daphnia * Caffeine of 5 different concentrations * Microscope * Counter * Cavity Slide * Pipettes * Stop clock * Distilled water * Test tubes * Petri dish Method: 1. Remove one Daphnia

they work. This experiment is designed to make the understanding of surfactant in the alveolar film easier to learn‚ because it’s not very simple. Surfactant is a detergent-like substance produced by the Type II alveolar cells in the walls of the alveoli. Surfactant is produced to reduce the surface tension of the water molecules that primarily compose the walls of the alveoli. For this experiment‚ we will be using milk and food coloring to represent the water (milk) and gas (food coloring) in the

VITAMIN C CONTENT OF FRUIT JUICE Aim: To investigate the vitamin C content of fruit juice.Hypothesis: I believe the more drops of fruit juice taken to decolourise DCPIP‚ the smaller the amount of vitamin C in that fruit juice. This is because DCPIP needed to be decolourised by ascorbic acid in fruit juice‚ so less concentration of ascorbic acids means that more ascorbic acids is needed to decolourised DCPIP. I believe that freshly squeezed orange is going to have the most Vitamin C content because
