December 8‚ 2013 Soil Analysis Lab Report Intro: Soil is produced over hundreds of years through the weathering of rocks and the decomposition of organic material. Soil contains nutrients that are taken from decomposed animals and plants which turn to detritus. Nutrients such as nitrogen are added to the soil in these ways by organisms such as nitrogen fixing bacteria. Soil is important because it is the fuel to the plants that we need in order to survive and for all species to survive. Soil

protein coat that surrounds the core of DNA. When phage DNA enters the host cell it directs phage reproduction. DNA is the molecule that is responsibility for heredity. In this experiment‚ phage was added to E.coli in a radioactive medium. Phages were used to demonstrate that DNA is the genetic material. The DNA molecule is surrounded by a protein coat. So‚ when phages infect bacteria‚ they will attach to the surface of the bacterium. When this happens‚ they inject DNA into the cell. The protein coat remained

Ph Lab Report Bryon Kim 123013 B(2) Biology Background information/Research PH paper (litmus paper) determines how acidic or how basic a substance is. The paper changes color accordingly to color code on the pH scale. The pH scale starts from 0 to 14. The lower the number the more acidic it is. Zero is the most acidic‚ and 14 is the most basic while 7 is the neutral number for example water. Examples of an acid is lemon juice or multi purpose cleaner. Examples of a basic substance is shampoo or liquid soap

Introduction: The theory behind the extraction of a solution containing benzoic acid‚ cellulose‚ and methyl orange involves many components pertaining to the fundamental ideas of solubility and polarity. Using the concepts of like dissolving like and acid base reactions‚ a solution of organic acid (benzoic acid)‚ a water soluble compound cellulose‚ and an organic soluble compound methyl orange‚ can be separated and benzoic acid can be isolated by a method of extraction. At the fundamental level

A company has specified that the acceptable size of a knob that is to be produced is (0.140 ± 0.003) inches. In this lab‚ the dimensions of the knobs produced in one day are tested for discrepancy in order to pass control testing. This lab also reports the probability that knobs with the acceptable dimension will be produced. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using Microsoft Excel‚ a histogram was created displaying the three documented dimensions of 15 batches of knobs. This histogram was obtained in order
