The objective of this macromolecules lab was to identify the presence any of the major macromolecules in various every day food items. The three macromolecules that this lab was carried out for were carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ and proteins. There were five different experiments conducted and each of those experiments had one factor in common‚ they all had the same controls. The controls in this lab activity were already set for the lab activity. The controls were the distilled water and the baking soda

Plants also need water for photosynthesis‚ to be able to create their food. The water travels up to the plant’s stem‚ where photosynthesis takes place. Water is

Genetics of Drosophila Lab Report: The test of heredity in fruit flies In my testings with breeding the fruit flies‚ I learned that the purpose of breeding them was to test how genetics pass from generation to generation‚ also known as heredity. We attempted to breed the flies and get them as close to a 9:3:3:1 ratio as possible. This would lead to an acceptable trait ratio. My hypothesis was that if we were to breed the flies in a stable environment‚ the most common fly (or the fly with the highest

Introduction: Lycopene is a carotene because of its carbon and hydrogen composition. It is red in color and a member of the carotenoid family. Members of the carotenoid family play integral roles in plants. They use the absorption of light to aid in photosynthesis‚ and protect chlorophyll from damage. In humans‚ Lycopene acts as an antioxidant. Lycopene is found in various fruits and vegetables. The purpose of this experiment is the isolation of Lycopene from tomato paste. This is done using

Figure 1.2 This figure shows the black constructed paper box that we used to cover the clear two-part container for the second trial of the dark environment. Next‚ we decided to change the experiment a little. We wanted to test if different colors of light‚ has an effect on ladybug feeding. We set up two lamps; one with red lighting and the other with blue lighting. Again‚ we set up two two-part clear containers with four ladybugs and twenty aphids. This is shown in the Figure 1.3.

Introduction Human cilia play a critical part in human processes. Human cilia are hair-like projections that extend from the surface of a cell. Cilia are capable of rhythmic motion and acts together from separate strands so that the cell is capable of movement. Flagella are a whip-like structure that is found in cells as well that allow for the movement of the cell. Human cilia are characterized as having “metachronal rhythm" and this means is a rhythm that "changes time" to produce wave. The beating

Behavior of Gases and Absolute Zero Determination Lab Report Experiment 4 Introduction In this experiment we measured the relationship between temperature‚ volume‚ and pressure. Objectives: Conduct a set of experiments‚ each of which illustrates a gas law. Gather data to identify the gas law described by each activity. Complete the calculations necessary to evaluate the gas law in each activity. From your results‚ derive a single mathematical relationship that relates pressure‚ volume‚ and

Rachel Bohnenberger Professor Van Doorn ENVS 150-002 27 April 2015 GMOs Lab Report Introduction As the population of Earth increases exponentially‚ so does the demand for more food. One of the solutions to the question of how more food can be produced is Genetically Modified Organisms‚ or GMOs. There is an ongoing debate about whether or not GMOs are more beneficial or harmful to society. Some of the benefits to GMOs are: growing plants‚ such as corn‚ that are resistant to weeds and pests‚ larger
