    The Human Mind Makes Mistakes The brain‚ a mysterious unknown place where people don’t know many answers to. The brain‚ where people make endless mistakes everyday caused by everything we do in our daily lives. The brain as many parts connecting around the whole body; the brain isn’t just one object that works in the same field. It’s like a company‚ they have their tasks and they perform them. Example of testing how our brain works is the show‚ Brain Games. The show basically points out why and

    Introduction Osmosis is when a fluid passes threw a semi permeable membrane. Moving from an area in which a solute such as salt is present in low concentrations to an area in which the solute is present in high concentrations. There are three types of osmosis: hypertonic is when there is high concentration and the cell has no water inside it (shrunk)‚ hypotonic is when there is low concentration and the cell has swelled up or in other words has a lot of water inside it‚ isotonic is when the water comes

    Introduction In this experiment‚ I measured the impact of two different topical chemicals on growing bacteria over the course of a week. Bleach‚ water‚ hand sanitizer and hand soap were all variables used to observe the effects of the bacteria swabbed from my palm and fingers. Bleach has been the go to product for killing germs and it is because of the similar effects it has with high temperature on the proteins in bacteria. I hypothesized that bleach would be the most efficient way for killing the

    volume ratio on the rate evaporation of water in different sized containers. By measuring the time it takes for the whole amount of water to evaporate‚ a conclusion can be made about the validity of the surface to volume ratio in regards to the biological process of diffusion. Research Question: What is the effect of the surface area to volume ratio on the evaporation of water? Variables: - Independent: o Surface area in cm2 of the top most surface of water in the container. - Dependent: o Rate

    Conclusion and Evaluation Conclusion In our test we put six different sliced up potatoes chips in solutions. The solution was different concentration of salt and water‚ one was 5% sugar‚ one 10%‚ one 15%‚ one 20% and one 30% salt concentration. We measured the mass of the potatoes chip before and after we put it into the solution. To keep the experiment fair we only changed one variable which was the salt concentration. The results that we got showed the chip went up in mass for 0%

    Potato Osmosis and Diffusion Lab Report Emily Cocq Research Question: Will there be a difference in the experimented potato cores after being subjected to high concentrations of sugar? Introduction: Water can move through protein channels in cell membrane/cell walls. The water will move due to the water potential of the cells. If there is a greater concentration of solutes (chemicals) inside the cell than outside the cell and the chemicals can not move‚ then water will respond by moving

    The formation of an action potential can be divided into five steps. (1) A stimulus from a sensory cell or another neuron causes the target cell to depolarize toward the threshold potential. (2) If the threshold of excitation is reached‚ all Na+ channels open and the membrane depolarizes. (3) At the peak action potential‚ K+ channels open and K+ begins to leave the cell. At the same time‚ Na+ channels close. (4) The membrane becomes hyperpolarized as K+ ions continue to leave the cell. The

Osmosis normally indicates on the grounds that it began to change in the mass for both the dialysis tubing loaded with the bizarre arrangement and the container of sucrose and water. Demonstrated that dissemination of water had happened over the semi-penetrable dialysis tubing. It’s checked on the grounds that the weight both changed. The outcomes
