INTRODUCTION: This lab was done to know how diffusion takes place. In the first place‚ particular penetrability is characterize as the particular "determination" with reference to what particles to enter the cell or kept outside of the cell; it is basically specific of what is going in and what is going out‚ primarily supplements going in and squanders going out (Marieb). Moreover‚ specific penetrability happens in two ways: dynamic process that requires ATP for the transportation of cell while

Lab Report Background Information: Magnesium is an alkaline earth metal that has the symbol Mg. Magnesium is a fairly strong‚ silvery-white‚ light-weight metal (one third lighter than aluminum). In a powder‚ it heats and ignites when exposed to moisture and burns with a white flame that is harmful to the eyes. It is difficult to ignite in bulk‚ but once ignited‚ it is difficult to extinguish. Magnesium Ribbon is a long strip of magnesium metal about 3 millimeters wide and 10 meters long with

the acid in lactate acid‚ it interfere with electrical signals in muscles and nerves‚ slows energy reactions‚ and impairs muscle contraction. The burn up we feel in intense exercise is the cause of hydrogen ion. During this experiment(Muscle fatigue lab) it will be seen that after a while of squeezing a small ball there won’t be the same amount of energy that was started with first and you will feel a burn in your arms which makes you feel hurt and don’t do a lot of squeezing; which is called the

Geometrical Optics: Snell’s Law PHY101 Lab 12 Date: July 23rd‚ 2012 Objective: The purpose of this laboratory activity is to develop a set of experimental procedures that answer questions regarding Snell’s Law and the index of refraction. Ultimately‚ the experimental procedures you develop will allow the index of refraction to be found for water and cooking oil. 1. Explain how to experimentally determine the index of refraction of two substances. 2. Develop a set of experimental

Conclusion: The purpose of this lab was to synthesize and purify aspirin. The theoretical yield was calculated to 3.766g. The actual yield of pure aspirin was 2.863g with a yield of 76%. The percent yield indicates that our synthesis was a success but the yield is low and indicates that some of the aspirin was lost during synthesis. Some reasons for loss can result from human error such as loosing product from sticking on the spatula and the Buchner funnel and several weighings. Also‚ when transferring

Jeanine Campa Biology 101 10/20/2010 Ecology-Interspecific Interactions Lab Intro: Ecology is the study of how organisms interact within their environment. Every species interacts with its surroundings‚ whether it’s within their populations‚ community‚ ecosystem‚ etc. In this lab‚ we will be comparing two different species and how they grow alone as well as together‚ in the same environment. More specifically‚ in this lab‚ we will be dealing with one of the most important ideas in ecology‚ the

In each station there was a positive and a negative control. If the substance was the same as the negative control then it was negative. If the substance was the same as the positive control than the substance is positive. In the first lab we did the Paper Spot test‚ one would have had to apply the substance on a cardboard like paper. If it looked oily it was the biomolecule called lipid. The result of test one was it stayed the same‚ it did not turn oily and was clear. Next was the test
