PEES 4200W- Physiology of Exercise Lab #2: Metabolism and Energy Expenditure 1. The Respiratory exchange ratio is the ratio of the volume of carbon dioxide produced and oxygen consumed. The ratio indicates the energy that the subject is expending for indirect calorimetry‚ how efficient the subject ’s body is at utilizing the oxygen inhaled‚ as well as the main substrate being used for energy during varying intensities of exercise. During rest the volume of carbon dioxide was 0.73L/min‚ the volume

The outcome from this lab is to be able to differentiate when to use ohmmeter and voltmeter for the individual circuit. II. Theory Ohm’s Law states that the electric current through a material is directly proportional to the voltage across a piece of material (such as wire) while the resistance is held

With this knowledge‚ sufficient understanding about the properties and characteristics of the different devices that can be used in a piping system is necessary for the choice of the appropriate devices to be used in future experiments. In the second part of the experiment‚ we observe how the flow rate of a fluid changes with respect to the head of the pump. The graph plotted in called a Pump Characteristic Curve. In this experiment‚ the performance curve deviated from the

from physical contact between two things. I am pulling the spring scale‚ which measure force in Newtons (kg x m/s2)‚ and then the block is moving. Different masses (kg)‚ or the measure of the resistance of an object to changes in its motion due to a force‚ of an object have different accelerations (∆v/∆t). The more massive the object is‚ the smaller its acceleration. Newton’s third law of force says that if two object interact‚ the force F12 exerted by object 1 on object 2 is equal

cheese. Lactic acid bacteria(LAB)‚ a bacteria that can be found in the production of cheese‚ its stress gene was investigated in the experiment by using various biochemical and genetic techniques to identify and extract. The characterisation of the strain illustrates how identification of strains differ using different methods‚ such as gram stain and 16s rRNA screening. After the characterisation‚ the stress gene isolation assist the further understanding of the gene on LAB be giving different stress

Math Sir Isaac Newton On Christmas day in 1642 a premature baby by the name of Isaac Newton was born. Isaac was born in Woolsthorpe‚ Lincolnshire‚ England and attended day school there while living with his grandmother. When Isaac was about thirteen‚ he went away to Grammar School in Grantham where he noticed his interest in chemicals. In 1661‚ he went to Cambridge University and stayed there until 1696 (with some gaps due to the plague). Within his Cambridge years‚ Isaac

Lauren Sullivan Plants Imperfections Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to plant different crosses and observe the different phenotypic ratios the plants present. The procedure of this experiment was plant six different crosses and water them correctly so that we could observe the different phenotypes and compare them to Mendel’s proposed ratios. Mendel‚ who had studied peas‚ did a similar experiment and came up with specific ratios that a monohybrid and dihybrid cross should show. His

Organic Chemistry II Lab 9 Fermentation of a Carbohydrate: Ethanol from Sucrose * Introduction Ethanol is one of the oldest alcohols and also the least toxic one. Industrially‚ ethanol is made most economically by hydration of ethylene. However‚ ethanol that is intended for human consumption must‚ by law‚ be prepared by fermentation. By either method‚ ethanol‚ of course‚ has the same formula‚ structure‚ and properties. The fermentation takes place with the assistance of enzymes from yeast

reproductive. Orientation is when the organism is placed in their beneficial environment consisting of two behaviors‚ taxis (movement directly towards or away something) and kinesis (random movement). Reproductive is detected using drosophila in this lab‚ it consists of finding courting and mating with another of the species Agnostic behavior is found in a situation where the animal feels threated by another‚ leading to the organism looking bigger or more threatening to the opponent. Within the Agnostic
