Introduction In this lab‚ the purpose was to verify Hess’s Law. Four main topics were covered during this experiment including enthalpy of reaction‚ heat of formation‚ Hess’s Law‚ and calorimetry. The enthalpy of reaction‚ ΔHrxn is the heat or enthalpy change for a chemical reaction. The energy change is equal to the amount of heat transferred at a constant pressure in the reaction. The change represents the difference in enthalpy of the products and the reactants and is independent of the steps

Olivia Teasdale Mrs. Gaspar SBI3U1 10/07/13 The Effect of Disinfectants and Antiseptics on Bacteria Growth Abstract The purpose of this lab was to determine the effect of disinfectants and antiseptics on bacterial growth. By observing the effects of 5 different inhibitors including alcohol‚ bleach‚ soap solution and distilled water‚ it was determined what antiseptic or disinfectant was able to best inhibit this kind of bacterial growth. Nutrient Agar was poured into a Petri dish with four quadrants

organism” (Simpson‚2010). Fermentation is the metabolic procedure in which an organism alters a carbohydrate‚ such as sugar or starch‚ into an acid or alcohol. For instance ‚ yeast performs fermentation to achieve energy by altering sugar into alcohol. Bacteria execute fermentation‚ altering carbohydrates into lactic acid (Helmenstine‚ 2013). Fermentation can be used in the food and drink industry as well‚ examples of this is bread. In the process of fermentation with bread‚ yeast produces carbon dioxide

Bacteria and Archaea The Archaea are presently recognized as one of the two main domains of prokaryotes. The majority of genes that indicate Archaea to be different from Bacteria are for information transfer processes such as DNA replication‚ transcription and translation. Of these‚ DNA replication machinery appears to be most different between the two domains. In terms of transcription‚ the core subunits of the RNA polymerase are the same in Bacteria and Archaea‚ but archaea also contains several

Meiosis and Genetic Diversity in Sordaria 979554296 Biology 110 Lab Introduction: In Israel there exists multiple spots in the mountains called Evolution Canyons‚ which are all located between a southern facing slope (SFS) and a northern facing slope (NFS). What’s particularly interesting about these locations is that despite the two slopes being on opposite sides of a small canyon‚ they exhibit extremely contrasting conditions. The SFS receives multiple times the UV radiation from the sun

I am a parasitic bacteria that has evolved sharp edges around it that can cut up proteins‚ specifically titin filaments found in the sarcomere. I would infect the sarcomeres through the T-tubules found on the sarcolemma and start detecting for titin filaments. As it is attached to the Z Disc and the myosin heads‚ I would start making my way there to destroy them. Once I have found the titin filaments‚ I would bind to them and thus cut up the protein. Titin filaments are important as they hold the
