influencing multiple (and possibly unrelated) phenotypic traits. Mutation in this type of gene will simultaneously affect more than one trait. An example is phenylketonuria‚ a human disease caused by mutation(s) in a single gene that codes for the enzyme‚ phenylalanine hydroxylase. The disease is characterized by mental retardation and reduced hair and skin pigmentation. List and explain other factors that

reproductive. Orientation is when the organism is placed in their beneficial environment consisting of two behaviors‚ taxis (movement directly towards or away something) and kinesis (random movement). Reproductive is detected using drosophila in this lab‚ it consists of finding courting and mating with another of the species Agnostic behavior is found in a situation where the animal feels threated by another‚ leading to the organism looking bigger or more threatening to the opponent. Within the Agnostic

purple to 1 non-purple plant observed. However‚ cross three did reject Mendel’s hypothesis because epistasis was involved (Strickberger 1985). The results of my last monohybrid cross‚ cross three‚ showed a phenotypic ratio of 9 with a yellow tip to 7 all green plants. The dihybrid cross that my group generated showed a 9:3:3:1 ratio of phenotypes‚ which is the ratio Mendel proposed for such a cross. The phenotypes visible for the dihybrid cross were red stem green leaf‚ red stem white leaf‚ no red

Introduction! ! The Michelson Interferometer is commonly used to determine the wavelength of light or measure very small distances. It was invented by Albert Abraham Michelson and is commonly used in optical interferometry‚ a branch of physics involving a family of techniques one could use to extract information about waves by superimposing them. ! ! The original application of the Michelson Interferometer was to the famous Michelson-Morley experiment in 1887. Prior to Einstein’s

Unit 10 Lab 1 1. ZenMap GUI sends out broadcasts for server queries for various different types of operating systems in servers (OS). By examining how various hosts respond to certain queries‚ ZenMap GUI can distinguish what kind of OS and server exists. 2. Nmap searches its internal database and what ports on the IP’s are listening and matches it to the best known application. Applications like MSSQL and Web servers usually use the same ports over and again For example tcp port 3389 will most definitely

Wave Nature of Light Objective: The purpose of this lab is to investigate interference‚ otherwise known as the diffraction of light. A beam of light acts a wave‚ and we are able to use equations so calculate the wavelength of the light used. The diffraction of a straight edge demonstrates that light waves bend around straight edges‚ allowing light to enter an area of shadow. When waves are superposed‚ they reinforce each other when crests are in phase and cancel out when they are not in phase

Laboratory Report The Plasma Membrane I. Introduction The Plasma membrane is the edge of life‚ the boundary that separates the cell from its surroundings. It controls the traffic of materials in and out of the cell. (Reece‚ 2011). It is incredibly thin that is very vital in maintaining the integrity of the cell. Not only does the plasma membrane bind the other organelles‚ it also forms a dynamic structure which gives them their remarkable activity and selectivity. (Hickman‚ 2008). Diffusion

it’s lowest to do so. However‚ in cold solutions the starch will take longer as it will in temperatures beyond 40 degrees. Once it reaches this point‚ the break down will either take a very long period of time or have no reaction at all as enzymes are denatured at a certain point.

BREADBOARD We should be familiar to the following things about a breadboard: * What is a breadboard and what is it used for? * How does it work? * Setting Up. * Limitations. What is a breadboard and what is it used for? A breadboard (or protoboard) is usually a construction base for prototyping of electronics. The term "breadboard" is commonly used to refer to a solderless breadboard (plugboard). It was designed by

PEES 4200W- Physiology of Exercise Lab #2: Metabolism and Energy Expenditure 1. The Respiratory exchange ratio is the ratio of the volume of carbon dioxide produced and oxygen consumed. The ratio indicates the energy that the subject is expending for indirect calorimetry‚ how efficient the subject ’s body is at utilizing the oxygen inhaled‚ as well as the main substrate being used for energy during varying intensities of exercise. During rest the volume of carbon dioxide was 0.73L/min‚ the volume
