animal if cut in half or several pieces. This reproductive ability to regenerate is called fission and occurs in flatworms due to their embryonic stem cells called neoblasts. We obtained the flatworms used in this experiment by first placing a few drops of spring water on a petri dish so that the flatworms will be able to survive a couple of weeks‚ and not be dehydrated. Next‚ we used a pipette to gather the flatworm and then placed the worm on the petri dish‚ with the spring water. Using a razor

surface. This toy is known as the bouncy ball. Usually bouncy balls are made of natural rubber‚ ways have been discovered in which bouncy balls can be made from leather‚ plastics‚ and other types of polymers. In this experiment we created not just any regular bouncy ball‚ but one whose materials are not harmful to the environment. In other words‚ we created the perfect eco-friendly bouncy ball. The materials we used to create this eco-friendly ball were polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polyvinyl

Lab Report Microbiology Introduction Bacteria can be found almost anywhere. For human life‚ some help us‚ some hurt us‚ and others are neutral. It is now known that good bacteria‚ or normal microflora‚ can reach 1014 microbial cells. This is far more than the 1013 cells that make up the human body (Tannock‚ 1995). The total number of bacteria on Earth is estimated to be around 4-6 x 1030 (Horner-Devine‚ 2004). It is important to know the extent of bacteria‚ how they live‚ and how they are

Genetics of Drosophila Lab Report: The test of heredity in fruit flies In my testings with breeding the fruit flies‚ I learned that the purpose of breeding them was to test how genetics pass from generation to generation‚ also known as heredity. We attempted to breed the flies and get them as close to a 9:3:3:1 ratio as possible. This would lead to an acceptable trait ratio. My hypothesis was that if we were to breed the flies in a stable environment‚ the most common fly (or the fly with the highest

For this lab‚ the expected outcomes are that when the heart rate and blood pressure are measured‚ both will increase when the heart has to pump against gravity‚ after exercise the heart rate will increase then return to normal‚ and as the subject inhales‚ it will be lower than when they exhale. Methods For this lab report‚ the laboratory manual (2009) was used for all labs. While completing lab five‚ electrodes were hooked up to the subject. After calibration for this lab‚

Three test tubes were filled with 5 mL of A‚ B‚ and C‚ respectively. 10 drops of mammal blood was added to each of these and mixed. The transparency and translucency of these tubes was tested. The solutions in the opaque tubes were placed on a slide with a drop of blood and observed under a microscope and compared to a control slide with just a drop of blood. Sketches of the observations were made and analyzed. A leaf of Elodea was placed on a slide along with
