Arianna Montoya Osmosis and Diffusion Lab Report Background Information: Diffusion involves the movement of solute particles across a selectively permeable membrane from higher to lower concentrations. A selectively permeable membrane allows only some thing to go through. Water and oxygen are examples of molecules that are able to go through the membrane

Making a plastic from potato starch – extracting starch In this activity you are going to extract starch from potatoes. This starch can be used to make a plastic. A similar process is used in industry to extract starch‚ which is then used in a number of products‚ including food and packaging. You will need: q q q q q q Approx 100 g clean (not muddy) potatoes Grater Tea strainer Distilled water Pestle and mortar 100 cm3 measuring cylinder. What to do q q q q q Grate about 100

Fruit Fly Genetics Lab Kelly Hernandez 5/31/14 Drosophila melanogaster is a small‚ common fly found near unripe and rotted fruit. It has been in use for over a century to study genetics. Thomas Hunt Morgan was the best biologist studying Drosophila early in the 1900’s. Morgan was the first to discover sex-linkage and genetic recombination‚ which placed the small fly in the forefront of genetic research. Scientists have used Drosophila for many reasons. For one they are very easy to maintain‚

Introduction The annelids (also called "ringed worms")‚ formally called Annelida (from Latin anellus "little ring")‚ are a large phylum of segmented worms‚ with over 2‚000 modern species including ragworms‚ earthworms and leeches. Annelids are abundance in freshwater‚ brackish and marine sediments. They are bilaterally symmetrical‚ triploblastic‚ coelomate organisms. These invertebrates can be recognized by their segmented bodies. Segments each contain elements of such body systems as circulatory

performing these tests was to differentiate microbes from one another and to compare how metabolic and biochemical processes differ from species to species. The tests performed include: the Fermentation of Sugars Test (sucrose‚ glucose‚ and lactose)‚ the Urease Test‚ the Fermentation of Lactose Test‚ the Sulfide Indole Mobility (SIM) Test‚ the Nitrate Reduction Test‚ the Protein Hydrolysis Test‚ the Catalase Test‚ and the Cytochrome Oxidase Test. The microbes that were tested during this lab were:

The Effects of Temperature‚ Acetylcholine‚ and Adrenaline on the Heart Rate of Daphnia magna Hieu Duong 6 April 2011 Introduction The heart is a muscular organ that constantly pumps blood throughout the human body. The continuous flow of blood creates a system for vital organs within the body to gain oxygen and nutrients. The timely delivery of oxygen to the body’s organs is very crucial. Brain cells‚ for example‚ will die within minutes if the flow of oxygen is obstructed. For the

Effect of Sugar on Bean Plant Growth Abstract The objective: My project was to determine if bean plants grew stronger and healthier by the addition of the right amount of sugar to their watering. I believe that plants that receive 50 grams of sugar per liter of water would help bean plants grow to be stronger‚ healthier and larger because they would get energy from the sugar. Methods/Materials 36 bean plants were grown in potting soil. The same amount of soil was used in each pot and it had no added

The Kirby-Bauer Test Interpret your results as described below. INTERPRETATION: · Place the metric ruler across the zone of inhibition‚ at the widest diameter‚ and measure from one edge of the zone to the other edge. HOLDING THE DISH UP TO THE LIGHT MIGHT HELP. · The disc diameter will actually be part of that number. · If there is NO zone at all‚ record it as 0---even though the disc itself is around 7 mm. · Record your zone diameter in millimeters. · Find
