Biophysical Ecology Abstract: There are many patterns that can be observed throughout our environment. In this experiment‚ the temperatures of organisms in a biophysical environment were analyzed to see if a pattern could be recognized that was related to the behavior of an ectotherm. An ectotherm is an organism that relies on the environment to regulate its body temperature. Organisms such as Pseudemys (turtles) and Lacertilia (lizards) are examples or ectotherms.

humans have become hugely dependant on agriculture. As such‚ acid rain has the potential to damage crops extensively‚ and thus‚ damage society as well through shortage of food or even famine. In addition‚ in countries that depend on the production of agricultural goods like Canada‚ the effects of acid rain can be tremendous. In this lab‚ we have chosen to examine the effects of acidic and basic environments on radish plants (Raphanus sativus)‚ by implementing varying pH levels of buffer solution into

Name: Nikia Martinez Class: Biology 240L L3-1201 Assignment: Electrocardiography Lab Report Due: April 3rd 2012 Professor: Dr. B. Schoffstall Introduction In a normal human being the heart correctly functions by the blood first entering through the right atrium from the superior and inferior vena cava. This blood flow continues through the right atrioventricular valve into the right ventricle. The right ventricle contracts forcing the pulmonary valve to open leading blood flow through the pulmonary

Food production A growing population brings with it a necessity to produce more food. However‚ the potential impact on the local and global environment must be considered. Part of the solution lies in careful management to reduce energy losses in food chains‚ as well as looking to new food sources. It is necessary to find a compromise between the priority of obtaining food and the priority of protecting ecosystems. The efficiency of food production can be improved by reducing the number of levels

the percent yield by dividing the expected yield‚ the amount of product that should be produced based on your stoichiometric calculations‚ by the actual yield‚ the amount of product that is experimentally obtained from a chemical reaction. In this lab‚ I have determined the reaction for mixing two reactants together; I measured out 0.005 moles of each reactant‚ lead (II) nitrate and potassium chromate. I dissolved‚ mixed‚ and made them react to make products; I compared the mass of the two reactants

Title: Esterification Objective: To synthesis acetylsalicylic acid by esterification. Introduction: A pleasant‚ often fruity‚ odor is characteristic of some of the simpler esters. Ethyl butyrate smells similar to pineapples‚ the odor of n-propyl acetate is reminiscent of pears and isopentyl acetate has a strong banana fragrance. Esters are derivatives of the carboxylic acids and contain the following functional group: The synthesis of an ester can be accomplished in one of several ways. An esterification

zmosis The IB Lab Report Measuring osmosis 1. Introduction My experiment is about osmosis on a potato and if or the quantity of salt affects osmosis. I would do the experiment with 5 potatoes cut into squares all the potatoes weight the same so the weight can`t be a variable the I put the potatoes on 5 different plastic cups with different amounts of salt and then I weight them again to see if the quantity of salt affected the osmosis of potatoes 1a. Research question ¿Does the quantity

Bioinformatics Lab Report Hypothetical Phylogenetic Tree: Using a cladistic approach‚ we constructed a hypothetical phylogenetic tree of many different plant taxa by comparing their morphologies. We first decided to sort the various types of plants into groups based on morphological features. After sorting these plants into five different groups we began to determine how the plants differed from eachother in the group and what features set them apart. From this we started to create
