Umwali Ecology Lab Report 10 Section 7649 Competition Data November 28‚ 2012 INTRODUCTION Competition‚ whether it is for food‚ water‚ shelter or a mate occurs between any living organisms in a mutual habitat. They are likely to be in close proximity and this interaction could either be harmful or helpful to each organism. When the interaction is beneficial‚ it is considered to be mutualism‚ either being obligate or facultative. However‚ interactions between different species may take different

-Unknown Mixtures Lab- Purpose: The aim of this experiment was to find out the two substances of the unknown mixture from salt‚ sugar‚ dirt‚ and baking soda by looking at its properties. Hypothesis: Find the unknown substance by testing it out by heating it‚ pouring water‚ vinegar‚ and observing it . Procedure: 1) Materials- * 100ml of water * Vinegar * Bunsen Burner * 2 beakers * 1 spatula 2) First‚ do steps (3-6)to find out the properties of salt‚ sugar

Microbiology Laboratory Report Identification of Unknown Bacteria 03/10/05- 04/01/05 Authors: Richard Hendricks‚ Jessica Prebish; NMU Abstract: Broth culture 16 was randomly selected by our group and subjected to qualitative tests for taxonomic identification. The culture did appear homogenous throughout the testing period and is currently retained by Northern Michigan University’s department of Microbiology. We suggest that culture 16 is an example of Escherichia coli. Background: Techniques
Premium Escherichia coli Staining Gram staining
Introduction: During this unknown lab report various test were performed to differentiate microbes from each other and to compare metabolic and biochemical process. The gram stain distinguishes between Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria based on the composition of the cell wall. The Gram stain procedure distinguishes between Gram positive and Gram negative groups by coloring these cells red or violet. Gram positive bacteria stain violet due to the presence of a thick layer of peptidoglycan

area‚ the larger species it can support. Aim: To see how the size of an area affects the relationship between species diversity. Diversity is a range of different elements. Habitat size determines diversity relationship(Edition of Nature‚ March 28 2002). In the research of specie diversity ‚ it was found out that more productivity was done when two different types of species were in one area. It was also said that diversity goes down but as it goes down the productivity of the species increase. Variables:

Identification and Diagnosis of Unknown Enteric Bacteria in an Infected Patient Using an Enteropluritube Brooke Addario 2/16/2015 BIO 488C - Section J TA – Jacob Karsten Introduction: Enteric bacteria are members of the Enterobacteriaceae family of microorganisms. These gram negative‚ rod shaped‚ facultative anaerobes are found in the intestinal tracts of humans and animals. Enteric bacteria can be pathogenic; however‚ they are also a normal part of human bacterial flora and are therefore

Microbiology-2460 Lab-003 March 31‚2008 Lab Report-Escherichia coli Abstract The purpose for this lab report was to identify and inform of an unknown bacteria that has been causing a patient to have lower abdominal and pelvic pain. To obtain the identification of this unknown bacterium‚ several biochemical tests needed to be performed in order to prescribe the correct medication to treat and cure the symptoms. Introduction In a lab today‚ I am to identify an unknown bacterium that is causing

CHM1032L pre/post lab instructions Preparation is a key to success in this lab. For this reason‚ you are required to thoroughly read through the experiment information presented in the lab manual‚ and complete a pre-lab for each experiment you do. The prelab must be completed prior to the day of the experiment. Each Friday I will ask to see your completed prelab before I allow you to enter the lab. If you have not finished the pre-lab‚ I will not allow you to enter the lab and you will receive

DENSITY AND SPECIFIC GRAVITY Materials and Methods Part 1: Density of an Unknown Solid 1. We first were asked from our laboratory instructor to attain an unknown solid and were asked to note down the number of the solid. 2. Determine the mass of the unknown solid to the nearest 0.001 g and record it in the data table in the back of the laboratory workbook. 3. Then we determined the volume of the unknown solid by water displacement. We first filled a 100mL graduated cylinder about

Lab Report 1 Introduction: Proper chemical formulas entitle many challenges such as the Law of Multiple proportions that states that there may be more than one plausible mole ratio for the elements in that compound. However if we determine the mass of each element in the compound we will be able to get the true chemical formula. In this experiment‚ we used the law of definite proportions to find the chemical formula for a hydrated compound containing copper‚ chlorine‚ and water molecules
