Glucose is a form of energy derived from carbohydrates. All living organisms requires energy to live and thrive. When glucose is ingested it is transported through the circulatory system by the various tissues and organs. This glucose will be used by the muscular and nervous system to complete day to day task. If the body is not in need of glucose it will be stored in the form of glycogen for a later date. The entire process starts with carbohydrates‚ for this paper we will be tracing the path of

In the unknown identification labs‚ we have identified our unknown as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is Gram negative and rod shaped that we found to be motile in the lab. Our strain of P. aeruginosa formed colonies that were round in shape and had scalloped margins on nutrient agar. On our agar slant‚ the P. aeruginosa colonies had a filiform appearance on the edges. I think we correctly identified our unknown as P. aeruginosa because we performed several different tests‚ eleven

The lab required pressing two toothpicks against the skin simultaneously. It was difficult to press down both toothpicks at the same time and this skewed the results. When the toothpicks weren’t pressed down at the same time‚ it felt like one point‚ then another

The purpose of lab number thirteen was to examine the response of the daphnia to a chemical stimulant. Also examined was how human resting heart rates differed from the daphnia’s. Stimulants are any substances that raise the levels of activity in the body. Stimulants could be a number of things such as physical or chemical. Physical stimulus usually deal with something that affects the five senses such as sight‚ hearing these could be attributed to loud noises or too much light going into your eye

Then a pinch of salt and 1 mL of water was added into each mortar and used the pestle to ground the tissue into a pulp like substance. After it transformed into pulp‚ 50 μl of the fluid extract was taken to be used for the experiments. Doing so‚ this evaluated the actions of each catalase in their cells. Catalase Foam Thickness 50 μl of each tissue extract was added to the cut up tissues‚ 1 mL of water was added to it and each placed into a separate test tube. After setting up the test tubes

Skeletal muscle moves because we want it to. It is controlled voluntarily (consciously). There is 2 types of contraction Isometric: As the muscle contracts‚ it remains the same length whilst the tension increases in an attempt to overcome the opposing force. Example: Holding a glass of water still in front of you. Isotonic: As the muscle contracts its length changes whilst the tension remains constant or develops to overcome the opposing force. Example: Lifting a glass of water to your mount and

Introduction Trained professionals can look at the EKG tracing and determine if the heart is normal or if the heart is abnormal. “An ECG records the electrical activity of the heart. The heart produces tiny electrical impulses which spread through the heart muscle to make the heart contract” (Kenny‚ 2015). There are two different types of cells. Autorhythmic (electrical) cell begins electrical activity and triggers contractile fiber‚ and contractile (myocardial) generates force to

Physics Lab Report Format General Remarks: Writing a lab report is the only way your TA will know what you have done during the lab and how well you have understood the process and the results. Part of your lab experience should be learning how to organize and present your work in a scientific way. There is no framework that can be used as a “one size fits all”‚ therefore this sample lab report should only be used as an example. Any lab report should have the following features:

Ans: The signs and symptoms the young graduate student presented‚ show evidence of Lyme disease. 2. What is the environmental pathway for the vector of this disease? Ans: The environmental pathway for the vector of this disease would be a forested habitat. The black-legged tick or the deer tick is the principle vector of this disease (Lyme

Name: Nikia Martinez Class: Biology 240L L3-1201 Assignment: Electrocardiography Lab Report Due: April 3rd 2012 Professor: Dr. B. Schoffstall Introduction In a normal human being the heart correctly functions by the blood first entering through the right atrium from the superior and inferior vena cava. This blood flow continues through the right atrioventricular valve into the right ventricle. The right ventricle contracts forcing the pulmonary valve to open leading blood flow through the pulmonary
