Lab Report Comparing Animal and Plant Cells The cell is the fundamental structural unit of all living organisms. Cells help carry out the functions of life and together support the organism to function as a whole. Cells are divided into two main categories of eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Animal cells and plant cells fall into the division of eukaryote cells that have both a nucleus and organelles. In this lab‚ animal and plant cells will be compared through a microscope to identify differences

Question 1 : The distribution of organisms in a community is affected by the biotic factors and abiotic factors. Abiotic factors are the non-living components in the ecosystem such as air‚ water‚ soil‚ temperature and light intensity. Biotic factors are the living components in the ecosystem such as animals and plants. In an ecosystem‚ the living organisms live together in their non-living environment and function as a unit. This dynamic system starts with species‚ populations‚ ecosystems‚ communities

What are the common and scientific names of your organism? The organism I have chosen to explore is commonly known as the Chinese giant salamander and scientifically as Andrias davidianus. It is also noted that species is sometimes assigned to the Cryptobranchium genus (Gang et al.‚ 2004). List the taxonomy of your organism- what are the Phylum‚ class‚ order‚ and family of your organism? Domain: Eukarya Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Amphibia Order: Caudata

two unknown organisms provided by the instructor in a nutrient broth. It is only known that the two organisms are from vomit; one is gram-positive and the other is gram-negative. It is necessary to first separate the two organisms by inoculating a nutrient agar plate using the streak-plate method. The initial streak-plate procedure was performed and placed in the incubator at 37◦C for 24-48 hours. Upon observing the growth on this plate‚ it is fairly obvious that one of the organisms is Serratia

The decomposition that microbes take part in help release mineral nutrients‚ such as potassium and nitrogen‚ from dead organic matter and allowing primary producers the nutritional access. They also produce CO2 and CH4 to release into the soil and atmosphere. 3. Describe the growth you observed in each of your
