Exercise 5: Gymnosperms and Angiosperms ______________________________________________________________________________ OBJECTIVES: 1. Describe the distinguishing features of gymnosperms and angiosperms. 2. Understand the evolutionary significance of pollen and seeds. 3. Understand the function of a cone‚ a flower‚ and a seed. 4. Relate the life cycle of angiosperms to the other phyla of the plant kingdom. ______________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION

MATERIAL AND METHODS Stability of cell membrane using pH For the lab experiment for testing the stability of beet cell membranes using pH‚ many materials were used as follows. Obtaining a beet we punch out cores‚ using a cork borer. After washing the cores we put each one inside a separate test tube‚ and added a different pH solution in each one. After 3 minutes in these exposure solutions‚ we took the beet out with a dissecting needle. Then transferred each beet to a separate test tube containing

Reconstructing a Cow’s Knee Lab Objective: To learn the function of the knee and how its ligaments work to create the movement the knee makes by taking apart the knee and reconstructing it with different materials to replace the ligaments. Hypothesis: If we replace the cow’s knee tendons with rubber bands then it will work like a new knee because the rubber bands will provide the support‚ strength‚ and flexibility it needs. Safety: Wear gloves while handling the knee‚ use precaution when

At the beginning of the lab‚ a micro test tube with and without glass wool was weighed on an analytical balance. A watch glass‚ crucible‚ and lid were also weighed. The masses of all the materials needed for the lab were recorded in the data tables of the laboratory notebook. An unknown vial was obtained from the teacher and set to zero on the balance. About 0.6 grams of the unknown was measured into the micro test tube. The analytical balance was set to zero again and then the test tube with the

Lab Report 7: Analysis of Cereal Introduction: The objective of this lab was to consult for the FDA regarding a recently surfaced scandal involving false reporting of iron content in cereal as well as iron tablets. The makers of the cereal and the iron tablets‚ respectively‚ were allegedly reporting higher amounts of iron in their products than actually existed‚ as a way to save money but continue to provide products with “adequate” amounts of iron. The FDA needed consulting in order to analyze

understand the photosynthetic process to help enhance the efficiency and quality of life on Earth. By fully understanding the function of photosynthesis‚ some environmental adjustments can then be made to refine the photosynthetic process. In this lab specifically (Lab No. 7)‚ we isolated specific color wavelengths and recorded the rate of photosynthesis in comparison to the unaltered rate of photosynthesis

Abstract This lab was focused on determining the optimal temperature of the enzyme amylase responsible for catabolizing starch polymers and to see how different temperatures affected the rate as well as how effectively the enzyme worked. To proceed with the experiment the group set up four different test tubes for each‚ bacteria and fungal amylase‚ and labeled them accordingly with different temperatures as well as different solutions . Then the spot plates were placed on the time and temperature

Introduction to Microscale Laboratory Niki Gharavi *‚ Minh Nguyen San Jose City College ABSTRACT: The objective of the experiment was to be introduced to working with the lab equipment‚ specifically heating and measuring‚ and to be able to create some of the apparatus that future experiments will require. Heating methods used were an aluminum block‚ a sand bath‚ and a water bath. The aluminum block heated most quickly while the others were more stable. Regarding the measurement of water‚ the less
