The objective of the experiment was to differentiate mammalian C2C12 cells into muscle cells and analyze for presence of myosin light chain. Utilizing Western Blotting techniques and using specific antibodies helped to detect myosin light chain. The hypothesis was that proliferating myoblasts could be induced to initiate the differentiation process by depriving the cells of the necessary growth factors and that the differentiation is characterized by the expression of muscle-specific proteins.

For the seventh experiment we will be performing different type of test to see how different chemical react with each other. The first experiment will be a demonstration the professor will give to the class. the first experiment you will be performing will include a test tube you will add a couple drops of dilute hydrochloric. you will add this to five little pieces of zinc metal. In next experiment you will performed you will put 2 ml of 3% hydrogen peroxide solution in a test tube .you will also

Investigation The following assignment presented is based on the information and outcomes of an experiment conducted by Claire Dunne‚ Eilis Brien and myself about the effects of light intensity‚ representing the three seasons of summer‚ spring‚ autumn and winter‚ on the transpiration rate of mangrove shoots. Abstract: The overall aim of this report was the conduct an experiment based how different light intensity levels‚ representing the four seasons in a year: summer‚ spring‚ autumn and winter‚ affects

nitrogen oxide. The production of a gas makes this a gas formation reaction as well. It is also important to note that NO2 is one of the main contributors of air pollution. Then‚ the first step of the cycle was complete once the solution turned to a light blue color as copper nitrate. For the second step of the cycle‚ copper nitrate with the addition of sodium hydroxide is altered to form copper hydroxide. The balanced equation was Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2 NaOH(aq) -> Cu(OH)2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq) while the total

adding hydrogen to them. In prokaryotes instead of chloroplast they use their own cell membranes to do the job. Wavelength also has a role in photosynthesis because they have just the right amount of energy to excite chlorophyll electrons boosting them to a higher energy level. When summing everything up the reactants are carbon dioxide‚ water‚ and the suns energy and the process is light dependent and the Calvin cycle. The products include oxygen and glucose.

Extreme Temperatures on the Rate of Photosynthesis 2. Jeffrey Xia 2. Abstract A previous lab in which we conducted‚ tested whether or not the light intensity had an effect on the rate of photosynthesis. We concluded that light intensity did possess an effect on the rate of photosynthesis – the closer the experimental plant units were to the light source‚ the more experimental plant units exhibited the effect of gas exchange in photosynthesis. Therefore‚ in this lab‚ we desired to test another possible

Light is everywhere in our world. We need it to see: it carries information from the world to our eyes and brains. Seeing colors and shapes is second nature to us‚ yet light is a perplexing phenomenon when we study it more closely. Here are some things to think about: Our brains and eyes act together to make extraordinary things happen in perception. Movies are sequences of still pictures. Magazine pictures are arrays of dots. Light acts like particles—little light bullets—that stream from the

Lab 6 Biomechanics of Frog Skeletal Muscle I. Purpose This exercise is designed to demonstrate some mechanical and physiological properties of skeletal muscle using the gastrocnemius muscle of a frog. II. Performance Objectives At the end of this exercise the student should be able to: 1. Define minimal (threshold)‚ subminimal‚ maximal‚ and supramaximal stimulus. 2. Explain what is meant by a “graded” response. 3. Draw a diagram of the setup used in this lab exercise. 4. Calculate the

An Experiment of Adaptation Introduction: Throughout history of time‚ organisms change in relation to their environment‚ consequently‚ adaptation is an essential property of life. This experiment is designed to test the adaptation of Drosophila melanogaster. This kind of insect is also called fruit flies‚ it has been widely used in scientific research because it has a short life cycle about two weeks and it is easy to keep large numbers of them (Manning). Two groups of this species will be used
