Lab Report Microscopic Study: Investigating Osmosis in Red Blood Cells Lab Report Investigating Osmosis in Red Blood Cells Introduction: The flow of water across a permeable membrane is called osmosis‚ and during this process‚ water moves down its concentration gradient. A solution surrounding a cell is hypertonic if it contains more solute particles than the inside of the cell‚ and the water will move out of the cell into the surrounding hypertonic solution by osmosis. If the solution

Lab Report Microbiology Introduction Bacteria can be found almost anywhere. For human life‚ some help us‚ some hurt us‚ and others are neutral. It is now known that good bacteria‚ or normal microflora‚ can reach 1014 microbial cells. This is far more than the 1013 cells that make up the human body (Tannock‚ 1995). The total number of bacteria on Earth is estimated to be around 4-6 x 1030 (Horner-Devine‚ 2004). It is important to know the extent of bacteria‚ how they live‚ and how they are

I) Introduction In this lab‚ a test was conducted to determine how the relative redox activity of chloroplasts from spinach leaves‚ which were performing photosynthesis‚ would change when in the presence or absence of light. To observe these changes in redox activity‚ the chloroplasts were exposed to DCPIP‚ a chemical that changes color according to such activity. By determining the redox activity of the chloroplasts‚ it could then be inferred which chloroplasts were photosynthesizing more actively

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

reactants producing a product and product breaking apart to its original reactant. Watch as both reactant and product reach a state of balance. No pressure greater than one another. Collision model provides characteristics of chemical reaction. Molecules must collide in order to react; and Characteristics such as higher concentrations‚ high temperature‚ etc. plays the role of increasing the speed of reaction or having more collisions. Scientists use collision model to understand why some molecules

INTRODUCTION Biodiversity presents occurrence of variety of species and their natural community in which they live. By the definition it is “The degree of variation of life forms within a given species‚ ecosystem‚ biome‚ or an entire planet. It is a measure of the health of ecosystems and is in part a function of climate.” (Rutherford) Ecosystem is on the other hand‚ “ community and its abiotic environment”( Rutherford). Biodiversity exists in every ecosystem‚ weather it is big one‚ or just ecosystem

A cylinder is a shape with a circular bottom at the both ends that kind of looks like a pringles potato chip bottle THE formula of finding the volume of a cylinder is base area times height of cylinder. The base area will be the area of the circle which is pi x radius x radius So you just take that answer and multiply it by the height of a cylinder. done math math math cylinder cylinder asdfghjk lkjhgh jhgf ghjxskdskdgc kdshfkhshfkshksskkkkjs wordlimit mine is

Diffusion and osmosis go hand-in-hand. Osmosis is generally the same as diffusion‚ however‚ deals solely with water. Osmotic pressure is the pressure of a solution against a semi-permeable membrane to prevent water from flowing into the membrane. In this lab‚ we are going to study tonicity; tonicity is the measure of this osmotic pressure and is the differential of pressure between two solutions separated by a selective membrane. To help identify the relative concentrations of solute particles of
