Phelps‚ Biology 205 MW 2:10pm. Unknown Organism Paper The unknown organism tested in the Mesa lab was collected from in between the toes of my puppy‚ Riley. The original culture grown consisted of dozens of visibly different organisms of varying colony colors and growth patterns. I chose to test a smaller‚ red colony for my experiments. Based on its gram reaction and oxygen requirements‚ the following tests were performed to reach my presumptive ID: Test Performed Result Gram Stain +

Venn Diagrams Paper Math 156 Jacqueline Burrell May 13‚ 2012 Evan Schwartz‚ instructor How Venn Diagrams Can Help Students in Math Venn diagrams are used in math to visually assist students when grouping real sets or implied ideas. The diagrams were invented by John Venn and are his only known accomplishments in the science of mathematical logic (Stapel‚ 2012). The diagram begins with all related information and is named the universal set. In this set all the known information pertaining

relationship between two organisms where one organism benefits but the other is neutral‚ there is no harm or benefit. An example of commensalism is a flatworm attaching to the horsecrab and eating the crab’s food while the crab is not affected. Commensalism *Parasitism is a type of symbiotic relationship between organisms of different species

5 Design Decision Styles. What’s Yours? By Jared M. Spool Originally published: Jan 21‚ 2009 In the early days of e-commerce‚ we studied how seasoned hiking customers bought hiking boots online. Two sites in our study‚ L.L. Bean and REI‚ both sold virtually identical boots at the same price with practically the same marketing copy. Yet the customers we studied were far more likely to buy the boots on the REI site than on the L.L. Bean site. Why? Because the product pictures on the REI site showed

The goal of this project was to create a gas station management software package using the classic waterfall development lifecycle. Some of the requirements that needed to be met were: the ability to control gas pumps‚ keep track of in-store

different species of living organisms‚ bacteria‚ or viruses to get desired traits such as resistance to disease or tolerance of pesticides. How do scientists Genetically modify organisms? Genetically modifying organisms works just like an advanced form of cut and paste. During genetic modification‚ DNA is taken from and unrelated plant‚ animal or bacteria and inserted into a different organism to get it to produce the desired traits. The DNA is“cut” from one organism and “pasted” into and unrelated

GMO stands for Genetically Modified Organisms. This means they undergo a certain forced process where they are introduced to bacteria and viruses to receive different traits to resist diseases or the tolerance of pesticides. GMO crops have been in the news for a very long time and it’s safe to say there are some pretty heated arguments about the topic. These foods that have been introduced to GMO have been tested with the World Health Organization and humans are safe to consume them. All living

Every person on this planet has their own hypothesis on how all organisms are related. Some may believe that there is no correlation between any of the organisms and it has always been that way. On the other hand‚ some believe that all organisms upon this earth have changed drastically‚ and we finally reached the point that we are at today after billions of years of adaptation. Now the only way to support a hypothesis is with scientific research‚ which brings me to the point of bringing up my hypothesis

Genetically Engineered Foods or Organisms Genetically Engineered Foods or Organisms Biological Basis Genetically modified crops (GMCs) are plants having DNA altered through genetic engineering techniques. The goal is to introduce a new desirable trait to a plant that does ordinarily occur in the species. Desirable characteristics include resistance to environmental conditions‚ resistance to diseases and specific pests and production of a particular nutrient. Genetic

The importance of carbohydrates in living organisms Carbohydrates contain carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen in the ratio of 1.2.1.. There are many different types of carbohydrate‚ all of which are useful to living organisms. The most important carbohydrate is probable glucose. Glucose is a monosaccharide and is the monomer unit which makes up more complex polysaccharides. Two glucose molecules can be joined in a condensation reaction‚ whereby water is removed‚ for example to produce maltose‚ a disaccharide
