Biology Assessment: Influenza Structure: Viruses are non-cellular obligate intracellular parasites‚ requiring a living host cell in order to reproduce. A developed viral particle (virion) lacks the metabolic machinery of cells‚ containing just a single type of nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) encased in a protein coat or capsid. Viruses can be distinguished by their structure and by the nature of their genetic material (single or double stranded DNA or RNA). Viruses that affect humans are more difficult

points in this report revolve around tectonic plate subduction‚ uplift around the Denali fault‚ and the rock composition of the mountain. The combination of these three forces are integral reasons for why the mountain has been able to grow to its size and why it’s been able to maintain its height. To understand how subduction has affected Denali and the Alaska mountain range‚ you first need to understand how plate tectonics work. The theory of plate tectonics centers on the idea that the Earth’s

procedures were carried out over the course of this experiment: tube inoculation and plate inoculation. We started with plate preparation. Three different lysogeny broth‚ or LB‚ agar plates were prepared for E. coli growth every other week: a control where water was used‚ one for triclosan‚ and one for streptomycin. Using an inoculation loop‚ E. coli was transferred from the test tube to the agar plate. This was done to each plate twice‚ creating a grid-like pattern of bacteria growth. A small paper disk soaked

Guessing the Bounce Plate Affect Abstract The goal behind this experiment was to estimate the distance a ball would travel after it falls a certain distance and bounces off a metal plate which has an angle of 45 degrees. To find this we had to take the basic equations for kinematics which are (1/2)at2=x and v=v0+at and combine them to make an equation that will help us solve for the distance the ball will travel after hitting the bounce plate. The equation came out to be R=g*(sqrt(2)/sqrt(g))*(sqrt(H)*sqrt(h))
