Measures of Flexibility and Their Correlations to Sit-and-Reach and Modified Sit-and-Reach Tests Jacob Palmer University of Puget Sound March 3rd‚ 2015 Measures of Flexibility and Their Correlations to Sit-and-Reach and Modified Sit-and-Reach Tests INTRODUCTION Flexibility can be defined as the capability of something to bend easily without breaking. The flexibility of a person is commonly measured during fitness tests‚ and the most frequently used test of a person’s flexibility is the sit-and-reach

called a spectrophotometer detects the amount of light that passes through the sample and the percent transmittance can be recorded from the meter. In the lab‚ multiple homogeneous solutions are made. There was not a way to determine the differences in concentrations‚ but the Spec 20 made it possible to measure the difference. The Beer-Lambert Law is a graph used to record

Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify unknown bacteria cultures using various differential tests‚ and my unknown bacteria is #17. The identification of these unknown cultures was accomplished by separating and differentiating possible bacteria based on specific biochemical characteristics. Whether the tests performed identified specific enzymatic reactions or metabolic pathways‚ each was used in a way to help recognize those specifics and identify the unknown cultures. The differential

Introduction The purpose of this experiment was to determine the rate law graphically from the rate of disappearance and the x y values also the specific rate constant (k). Activation energy was also determined‚ and the effect of catalyst was evaluated in the reaction between peroxodisulphate ion S2O82-‚ and iodide ion‚ I-. S2O82-(aq) + 3 I-(aq) --> 2 SO42-(aq) + I3(aq) The general expression for the rate law‚ given this overall reaction‚ is: rate of disappearance of S2O82- = k[S2O82-]m[I-]n

The objective of this lab was to recreate the color profile of a given solution. In this case‚ the solution was Powerade. The final solution should match the absorbance values at the peak wavelengths (420nm and 628nm) in Powerade. This lab was done using deionized water‚ FD&C Blue #1‚ FD&C Yellow #5‚ FD&C Red #40‚ and a spectrometer. To obtain the correct color profile‚ FD&C Blue #1 and FD&C Yellow #5 were utilized in the sample solutions. The experiment was conducted over two days; the first day

Genetics of Drosophila Lab Report: The test of heredity in fruit flies In my testings with breeding the fruit flies‚ I learned that the purpose of breeding them was to test how genetics pass from generation to generation‚ also known as heredity. We attempted to breed the flies and get them as close to a 9:3:3:1 ratio as possible. This would lead to an acceptable trait ratio. My hypothesis was that if we were to breed the flies in a stable environment‚ the most common fly (or the fly with the highest

Engineering B45 Concrete Lab Report Introduction: Concrete is a mixture of sand and rock or similar inert material (aggregates) held together by a cementing material. Usually the cementing material is Portland cement‚ but sometimes binders such as asphalt or gypsum are used‚ in which case the concrete may be called asphaltic concrete or gypsum concrete. Properties of concrete are governed not only by the properties of its ingredients (cement‚ water‚ sand‚ and coarse aggregate) but also‚ to a great

The third hero is Sir Isaac Newton‚ possibly the most brilliant man to ever live‚ who has made a plethora of scientific accomplishments. Although with his great mind it also carried mental illness. Author Marina Jones‚ writer for Futurism‚ writes about Sir Isaac Newton’s struggles in her article titled “The Madness of Sir Isaac Newton”. Newton should inspire others to overcome their obstacles no matter how large they are. In his early life he had to overcome some personal issues. His first struggle

during the lab session Procedure Part A This lab was performed by the group members as they closed both low and high flow rotameters (Fig-2) and filled the tank with water. Then‚ the large rotameter was opened when the water in the tank had reached the internal baffle‚ so the flow from the tank was reduced by doing so. One member was in charge of adjusting the level of the water so it was always maintained over the baffle’s level during the lab (Fig-1). The first part of the lab was done
