A. What is the name of the pigment that captures light? Chlorophyll B. Why does the pigment appear green? It absorbs other colors of light such as red and blue‚ so in a way the green light is reflected out since the pigment does not absorb it. 2. List two variables besides the wavelength (color) of light which might affect the rate of food production in plants. Light intensity and carbon dioxide 3. Why is chlorophyll important for all biological life? It is necessary for photosynthesis which

peroxidase. The three conditions tested were the effect of peroxidase concentration on the rate of the experiment‚ the effect of pH of the rate of peroxidase activity‚ and the effect of temperature on the rate of peroxidase activity. During the lab‚ the lab group tested 7 test tubes‚ including 1 blank‚ with different amounts of pH 5 buffer‚ H2O2‚ Peroxidase‚ and Guaiacol. After the certain amount of mL per substance was mixed‚ the absorbance readings for the effect of peroxidase concentration were

Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to identify the presence of cations and anions in four unknown solutions by identifying whether they are copper‚ silver‚ iron‚ or chloride ions which is done by adding sodium hydroxide‚ solid copper‚ silver nitrate‚ and potassium thiocyanate to the solutions and analyzing the chemical reactions. Introduction: Chemical change‚ unlike physical change is the change in the composition of a substance rather than simply its shape‚ size‚ or state (Marie‚ 2015). Signs

Question/Purpose: The Question or Purpose of our lab is to answer the question “How is the germination of a seed affected by sunlight?” Experimental Hypothesis: We believe these results will occur. 1. The seeds that are water deprived (1 mL of H2O a day) will not grow very well due to a lack of water which is important in photosynthesis and also lacks nutrients. The seeds may also die off due to a lack of water. 2. The seeds that are have a proper amount of water (10 mL of

Through Dialysis Tubing (a Semi-Permeable Membrane) I. DESIGN A. PROBLEM/RESEARCH QUESTION 1. How does increasing molarity of sucrose affect osmosis through dialysis tubing? B. VARIABLES 1. The independent variable in this lab is the molarity of sucrose each dialysis bag is filled with. The time (30 minutes)‚ the temperature (23C) and the type of dialysis tubing used are all constants. 2. The dependent variable is the final mass of the dialysis bag. 3

Physiology‚ Berry HOMEOSTASIS LAB ACTIVITY Introduction: Homeostasis means maintaining a relatively constant state of the body’s internal environment. The term used to describe a pattern of response to restore the body to normal stable level is termed negative feedback. When a stimulus (environment change) is met by a response that reverses (negates) the trend of the stimulus‚ it is negative feedback. As a result the internal environment is returned to normal. Pulse rate is constantly checked

Post-Lab Questions 1. Using the information provided in the Introduction and your observations from Part 1‚ hypothesize as to the type of electrolyte the following solutions would be. Justify the hypothesis from a chemical standpoint. a. Aqueous Sodium Hydroxide—NaOH (aq) is a very strong base‚ which will completely disassociate into Na+ and OH- ions‚ which would make it a very strong electrolyte. Chemical reaction of the disassociation of Sodium Hydroxide: NaOH (aq)Na+ (aq)+ OH-(aq)

Lab Report: Halogen Reactions Purpose: This experiment will allow for exploration into some of the properties of Group 17 elements (halogens) and their compounds. More specifically‚ the solubility properties of these halogens will be used to predict their reactions. The relative electronegativities of the halogens will be determined. Halides‚such as Cl-‚ Br-‚ and I- will be used to make these determinations. Because this lab is qualitative rather than quantitative‚ there are no calculation
