Purpose: In this lab‚ I will observe macroscopic changes that occur when mixing together certain chemicals and household cleaners. The mixing of the chemicals provided with each other and with acid/base indicators demonstrates how matter can change‚ and how chemistry can be seen with the naked eye. By mixing household cleaners with an acid/base indicator I hope to demonstrate how these changes can be related to everyday life. Procedure: Before beginning my experiment‚ I put on my gloves

The purpose of my experiment is to determine which temperature will allow Luminol to glow at its greatest capacity. My hypothesis is that the glow will illuminate for the longest time in a cold temperature because it will take longer to dissolve. I also predict that in the warmer temperature‚ the glow will be at it’s brightest. Luminol is a chemical‚ which exhibits chemiluminescence with a blue glow. It is a solid that is soluble in most polar solvents‚ but insoluble in water. Luminol is widely

The Elvis Experiment Introduction: In this experiment we will determine how the difference in length and diameter of a blood vessel have an effect on the resistance of blood flow and how the viscosity of blood will also effect the resistance of blood flow in a blood vessel. Observation: My mom is a big Elvis fan and she always wondered how his health affected his death. Knowing that he had high cholesterol and high blood pressure I decided to do an experiment on what factors may have had an effect

on the regeneration rate of the planaria. The hypothesis of this experiment is that if the planarians are exposed to a certain number of magnets at a closer distance‚ then they will regenerate stronger and faster. This is important because it could lead to faster regeneration for the animal and lead to bigger things such as finding a way to incorporate this to human regeneration. Many experiments have been researched

Kaur Pure Cultures Lab 1/31/13 Introduction : Pure cultures are made of only one type of organisms and can be used to study their properties. A method used to isolate pure cultures is making a steak-plate‚ which is a dilution process in which culture is spread over an agar plate in a certain manner. Using a loop rod‚ culture was taken from the tube and dragged across area 1 several time‚of the agar. The agar was then turned 90º‚ and the loop was flamed and cooled. Taking some culture from area

The Effects of Environmental Stimuli on Animal Behavior AP Biology Emily Olsen April 26‚ 2012 I. Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to test the effect certain stimuli has on the behavior of a terrestrial isopod. These bugs are more commonly known as pill bugs and potato bugs. The objective of this experiment is to determine which kinds of habitats potato bugs favor. Potato bugs have an innate behavior called taxis which will cause the animal to move away from a stimulus that is unwanted

higher resolution and more light‚ you need to put more than one mirror together and make them work together‚” explains Robert Angel‚ a professor of astrology at the University of Arizona (Giant Mirrors to Capture the Universe). Just as we learned in our lab‚ we need a good source of light for something to become clear. The mirrors that are used for the telescope cause the light to be reflected off of one mirror onto the other which then create a clear image from the large convex lens. “Because these

Arlind Mara Paper Towel Lab Report AP Biology 15 September 2011 Which Towel is The Quicker-Picker Upper! To determine which of the most popular paper towel brands such as Bounty and Marcal would be the Quicker-Picker-Upper I conducted the following experiment during which I dipped 6in X 6in squares of paper towels into 100mL and measured the amount of water absorbed by the towels in 20 seconds. After averaging all 3 trials for the paper towel brands that I tested I arrived to the conclusion
