Light Microscopy Lab Lab write-up 1 Parveen Rajper Biology 101 Principles of Biology 1 September 29‚ 2012 Introduction: The light microscope helps see the microscopic world that the naked eye cannot see. If there were no microscopes in the world‚ than it would be very difficult to understand the many particles that surround the living world. The purpose of this lab experiment is to become familiar with a microscope. It is hypothesized that it will be difficult

to have in the body. A substrate is the material that is being broken down. In this case‚ the substrate would be hydrogen peroxide. The catalase‚ located in the liver‚ is being used to break down the substrate. Problem The purpose of this lab is to see if the enzyme‚ catalase‚ can be manipulated. We are testing the effects of pH‚ temperature and enzyme concentration. Hypothesis Controlled When we add peroxide to the liver it will bubble a lot and break down faster. When we add peroxide

Enzyme Activity Lab Hypothesis: 1] Are enzymes reusable? Yes‚ enzymes are reusable. 2] Which of the following do you think contain catalase? [Manganese dioxide‚ chicken meat‚ apple‚ carrot‚ potato‚ or chicken liver] I think that the manganese dioxide‚ apple‚ and carrot contain the catalase. 3] Would grinding the materials affect enzyme activity? I think that grinding the materials will increase enzyme activity. 4] Would temperature affect enzyme activity? I think that

The Normal Symbiotic Phase extends from 4 to 6 weeks of age to 5 months where he is aware of oneness with his mother without a sense of individuality from the external environment. In the Separation-Individuation Phase: In this phase the infant breaks out connects and relates to the environment and starts separating and differentiating with the mother‚ while developing a sense of individuation with ego‚ identity‚ and cognitive abilities. There are 3 overlapping sub-phases: Hatching from the age

Yak Lab Natural selection is the process by which favorable heritable traits become more common in successive generations of a population of reproducing organisms‚ and unfavorable heritable traits become less common. Natural selection acts on the phenotype‚ or the observable characteristics of an organism‚ such that individuals with favorable phenotypes are more likely to survive and reproduce than those with less favorable phenotypes. If all the offspring that organisms can produce were to survive

Lab Report: Purpose: The Objective of this lab was to learn how to measure the pH (or acidity) of commonly known fluids‚ using the correct tools and procedures. To then use that data to document the changes noticed when mixing those same fluids and changing their respective pH levels. Materials: In order to conduct this experiment several pieces of equipment and other materials were needed. The first item was a graduated cylinder‚ which was used in order to measure out the precise

Reconstructing a Cow’s Knee Lab Objective: To learn the function of the knee and how its ligaments work to create the movement the knee makes by taking apart the knee and reconstructing it with different materials to replace the ligaments. Hypothesis: If we replace the cow’s knee tendons with rubber bands then it will work like a new knee because the rubber bands will provide the support‚ strength‚ and flexibility it needs. Safety: Wear gloves while handling the knee‚ use precaution when

Butter lab 1 Introduction: While doing this experiment we used 3 terms. We used cream‚ butter‚ and butter milk. Cream is unhomogenized butter. Butter is what we got after the lab was finished. Butter milk is the milk around the butter after it is homogenized and it is thicker than normal milk. If we shake the cream in a jar than will it turn into butter? If I shake the cream than it will turn into butter because it will homogenized. In this lab you will shake a jar of cream and see if will
