of the specialized underlying structures of these life-forms. In order for us to appreciate these special adaptation‚ we first need to know how a typical plant or an animal cell organelle behaves in different water and solute concentrations. In this lab‚ we will determine the effects of hypertonic‚ isotonic and hypotonic solutions on plant and animal cells. In general when an animals cell’s placed in hypertonic solution it shrivels; a plant cell on the other hand undergoes plasmolysis. When an animal

Andres Santana per.4 4/20/15 Pedigree Lab Introduction How can you spot different pattern of inheritance? When we started this lab the question (subject) we had to try and solve was ‘Which pattern of inheritance is present in the O’Smithsteinskis and AkimGarciaChan family pedigree? If when looking at the number of people shaded in our pedigree and find that the number is increasing each generationon then we can assume that the pattern of inheritance found here is Complete Dominance

Fly Lab Shannon Ladd Introduction: Famers and herders have been selectively breeding their plans and animals to produce more useful hybrids for thousands of years. It was somewhat of a hit or miss process since the actual mechanisms governing inheritance were unknown. Knowledge of these genetic mechanisms finally came as a result of careful laboratory breeding experiments carried out over the last century and a half. A contributing geneticist named Gregor Mendel (1822-1884)‚ discovered through

Toxicology Lab 1. In this investigation‚ a wide range of concentrations of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) solution were created and the effects that they had on radish seeds were tested. This ultimately created a doseresponse experiment in which it was detectable whether or not radish seeds were a reliable bioassay for the toxicity of NaCl. The goal of this experiment was to determine a correlation between toxicity and seed germination/radicle

Lab 5 The Diffraction Grating Chinua McDonald Objective: To measure the wavelength of light with a diffraction grating. Theory: The two types of diffraction gratings are the transmission and reflection gratings. They are made by ruling on a piece of glass or metal a number of evenly spaced lines with a fine diamond point. Diffraction phenomena can be analyzed in terms of Huygens’ principle‚ according to which every point on the wave front of a wave should be considered as a source

As I found myself struggling to get to the next chapter in The Inheritance of Loss‚ I couldn’t help but to wish that I were rereading The Kite Runner instead. Every time I flipped a page‚ I couldn’t help but to envision the characters switching roles because even though the two plots varied‚ the characters certainly didn’t. Everything from the attitude‚ age‚ and even specific structure of the members of the two families from both novels mimicked each other as the novels progressed. The family

indicated by a very pale pink color. To calculate the molarity of NaOH‚ the following equation was used MNaOH x VNaOH = MKHP x VKHP therefore the molarity was .125 M. INTRODUCTION This lab experiment covers the preparation of standard solution and the acid/base titration. The first part of the lab is to prepare a standard solution of Potassium hydrogen per. A standard solution is a solution of known concentration‚ in which it is prepared using exacting techniques to make sure that the molarity

Methods: This experiment was carried out over a five-week process. Each lab bench crossed two parental generations: dumpy females x sepia males‚ and sepia females x dumpy males. My partner and carried out the sepia x dumpy cross. The following week (week 2)‚ we removed the parents so we wouldn’t confuse the P generation
