are we even talking about this? You don’t need to lose weight at all‚ so what are you dieting for‚ anyway? It’s better to like yourself just the way you are.” “What do you think?” Mitchell says‚ turning toward you. “You’re taking biology. Don’t you think highprotein diets make a lot of sense? You think I should stick with this one?” “Tell him he’s being ridiculous!” Janine insists. “He’s going to make himself sick.” Questions .

UNIT 2 NOTES DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) DNA Functions • Stores genetic information and copies itself (replication) to pass on the information • Contains genes (instructions to make proteins) • Instructs cell’s activities DNA Structure • DNA is a polymer of nucleotides • Chromosomes (DNA strand + associated proteins ie. Histones wrap DNA around like a spool = condensed chromatin) ↓ genes (sections of a chromosome that codes for a protein) ↓ nucleotides (3 parts: phosphate‚ deoxyribose

is in the Proteins: Tests Supports Universal Common Ancestor for All Life”‚ by Katherine Harmon‚ a scientist by the name of Douglas Theobold carried out statistical analysis on 23 preserved proteins that were preserved over three major domains of life. The result of these analyses supported Darwin’s evolutionary theory‚ by demonstrating that the protein sequences of life today came from a common universal ancestor rather than separate individual ancestors. However‚ today doubt in this theory still

BIOL 1F90 Expt. #1: Protein Quantification Student Name: Carlos Osorio Student ID: 5220710 Lab Section: 34 Date Experiment Performed: Sept. 26th‚ 2012 Lab Partners: K. Cloutier J. Yang ABSTRACT Protein concentration analysis is primarily done through an accepted form commonly referred to as the Bradford Protein Assay. The main purpose of this experiment was to observe and record the various protein samples’ absorbency values through the calibrated readings of a spectrophotometer

Metabolic Acidosis Metabolic acidosis is a condition in which there is too much acid in the blood. It happens because of a chemical imbalance in your cells. Metabolic acidosis can happen at any age‚ and there are many different causes. It may be a symptom of a sudden‚ short-lived (acute) condition‚ or a lifelong (chronic) condition. Metabolic acidosis can be mild‚ or it can be severe and life-threatening‚ depending on the cause. It can be corrected if the cause is identified and treated correctly

4A.2 RRL 4A.2.1 Coagulation of Proteins Coagulation of protein refers to sticking together‚ like a blood clot‚ usually as a result of denaturation or coming out of solution due to abnormal ionic strength or a change of solvent. Definite characteristics of the proteins are changed when they are coagulated‚ among which is loss of solubility in water and dilute salt solutions. In some instances and under certain conditions the coagulation process may be reversible. (Campbell‚ et.al‚ 1979) 4A.2.2

of these brain structures contribute different functions within the human body. The brain’s first structure is the myelencephalon‚ which is also called the medulla. The myelencephalon is known as the most posterior part of the brain. The structure of the myelencephalon is made up of bundles of axons called tracts. These tracts carry signals between the rest of the body and the brain. The myelencephalon also contains a reticular formation‚ which consists of a complex system of 100 tiny nuclei

and UCT causes the endotherm’s metabolic rate to increase. We can hypothesize that when the temperature falls below the LCT or above the UCT‚ the percent O2 consumption will increase‚ and thus‚ the metabolic rate. The hypothesis was supported by the result received in this lab. The thermal neutral zone (TNZ) of an endotherm is its temperature tolerance range. For the mouse‚ this is about room temperature. It is seen that in the TNZ‚ the metabolic rate decreases from about 1.75 to 1 (Fig 1). During

The school does have the right to regulate the dress code. The smaller the school‚ the less rules there are. Although‚ it is always necessary to regulate dress code! Dress code is one of the most broken rules‚ yet a very important one! To start with‚ some of the “casual wear” these days has profanity written on it and shows too much skin‚ which can be inappropriate. These types of clothing are frowned upon and not seen as professional. When your outer appearance isn’t seen as professional‚ neither
