Insect Collection Tanner Jones Honors Biology 1st period Page 1 American Oil Beetle The American Oil Beetle is a type of Blister Beetle. These beetles are referred to as oil beetles. They are called this because they release oily droplets of hemolymph when they feel threatened. When the beetle feels threatened or put under pressure‚ they will release a chemical called cantharidin‚ which creates blisters and will irritate the human skin. These beetles have a soft‚ and stout abdomen with

Sucrose Synthesis by D. DeWitt‚ PhD v1.5 11/10/12 Introduction | Condensation Reaction | Plant Synthesis | A. Introduction Although it might seem straight forward‚ the synthesis of sucrose‚ either as a simple condensation reaction (a.k.a. dehydration synthesis)‚ or what actually happens in plants is complicated. Before we explore sucrose’s creation‚ let’s take a look at its structure. In Figure 1‚ the space-filling model is pretty but rather useless at this point in our journey. We

Alum Synthesis: The Chemical Process of Recycling Aluminum Introduction By recycling aluminum cans‚ the costs and energy savings are dramatically more resourceful and efficient than producing aluminum from what it is naturally found in‚ bauxite ore. The process of recycling aluminum to produce potassium aluminum sulfate‚ a common alum‚ will be done through a serious of chemical reactions. Through this reaction‚ percent yield will be determined. Materials and Methods The mass of a 250 mL

Insulin promotes dephosphorylation (activation of HMG-CoA reductase) which promotes cholesterol synthesis in which insulin binds to its receptor protein in the liver cell membrane and stimulate irs-1 formation.irs-1 activates HMG-CoA reductase enzyme increasing rate of cholesterol synthesis.(4) FACTORS

Lab Report Synthesis and Characterization of Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid) The Synthesis and Characterization of Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid). Summary: In this experiment‚ we produced 4.21 g of acetylsalicylic acid. Our theoretical yield was calculated to be 5.22 g. Therefore our % yield was determined to be 80.6%. The experimental boiling point range of acetylsalicylic acid was found to be 130-132° C. The true melting point of acetylsalicylic acid is 135° C‚ therefore our percent

Tea tree oil‚ Does it worth it? The world now is heading more towards natural medications‚ or medication with natural herbs and fruits. Yes since is on its peak‚ but yet we want to step away from chemicals and pills‚ we are indeed looking for something that will do the job without any side effects‚ we want something that will cure our body without harming it. That thing is totally tea tree oil. From all natural oils‚ tea tree oil is thought to be the best. For its several benefits and uses‚ tea tree

Oils play a huge role when it comes to massage. In most of the cases they “decide” whether some massage is relaxing enough or not. There are a wide range of sorts of massage oils accessible. At the well being nourishment store‚ you’ll discover single massage oils‚ for example‚ sweet almond oil or avocado oil. On the off chance that you shop at spa shops or healthy skin stores‚ you’re more inclined to discover mixed massage oils containing two or more massage oils. Why is it critical to think about
