Lab 11: Animal Behavior Introduction Ethology is the study of animal behavior. There are two specific categories of behavior: learned ad innate. Orientation behaviors place the animal in their specific environment. Animals move away from sensory input in taxis where as behavior is the response to sensory input. Stimulus’ of light‚ heat‚ moisture‚ sound‚ or chemicals are mostly found in taxis. Kinesis is the movement that does not result in orientation with stimulus. When animals respond to each

was separated into four stages‚ the first being preparation of cell competency. In this stage two vials were placed in ice baths‚ one vial containing 50 µL of E. coli and the other containing a CaCl2 solution. 630 µL of the CaCl2 solution was then transferred to the E. coli vial‚ using a sterile pipet. After tapping the tube to mix the solution‚ it was then returned to the ice bath to continue incubation for at least 10 minutes. The cell competency preparation was carried out by the instructor in this

The cell is the fundamental structural unit of all living organisms. Some cells are complete organisms‚ such as the unicellular bacteria and protozoa; others‚ such as nerve‚ liver‚ and muscle cells‚ are specialized components of multi-cellular organisms. Cells range in size from the smallest bacteria-like mycoplasmas‚ which are 0.1 micrometer in diameter‚ to the egg yolks of ostriches‚ which are about 8 cm (about 3 in) in diameter. Although they may differ widely in appearance and function‚ all cells

Prokaryotic – no organelles; no nucleus; bacteria and Achaea; spherical‚ rodlike/corkscrew-shaped; cell wall; Eukaryotic – has nucleus; has organelles Commonalities – contain DNA that stores genetic information What is the main component of cellular membranes? What function(s) do membranes serve in cells? Made of phospholipids; defines

1. My thoughts on the issue of sterile procedures in the lab are that they should inform people before they do those procedures that they would become sterile. I also think that people should have to sign a consent form to make sure that they do understand the risk and to ensure that they know and are okay with the fact that these procedures will cause them to become sterile. They have every right to know‚ as they are their bodies. A consent form will also ensure that people are informed of the risks

Small Animal Metabolism Materials: 3 Gerbils (8‚ 24‚ 17) Cage Circular Tube 2 Plugs Brown Paper Towel Weight and Balance Soap Solution Drierite Glass Pipette Metal Poker Procedure Our hypothesis for the Small Animal Metabolism lab was that the gerbil will consume oxygen at a greater rate than a mouse because the gerbil is larger in size. To begin this experiment we obtained a gerbil from a specific cage and weighed it on a balance. After we had weighed the gerbil‚ we inserted

Anatomy of flowering plants deals with the study of internal structure of various organs of flowering plants. The tyloses are the structures present in the woody tissues of dicot stems. These are the extension of xylem parenchyma cells into the vessel elements(NEET-II 2016). Cortex tissue is present in between the epidermis and stele. It is multilayered and is made up of parenchymatous cells with big intercellular spaces (NEET-II 2016). Wood of gymnosperms does not contain vessels.e.g- Pinus is
