    #2) Both Winner and Joy explore the issue of technology and control. How would you compare their two views of current technological development? Focus the comparison on a specific technology‚ such as genetically modified organisms. Technology is always in need of control. You cannot have a world that technology is in control such as the movie Terminator‚ where technology takes over. Just like human beings there is always a need for control. Both Winner and Joy explore this topic; Joy believes

    Phelps‚ Biology 205 MW 2:10pm. Unknown Organism Paper   The unknown organism tested in the Mesa lab was collected from in between the toes of my puppy‚ Riley. The original culture grown consisted of dozens of visibly different organisms of varying colony colors and growth patterns. I chose to test a smaller‚ red colony for my experiments. Based on its gram reaction and oxygen requirements‚ the following tests were performed to reach my presumptive ID: Test Performed Result Gram Stain +

    of Self-Generated Sketches‚’ Goldschmidt discusses and talk over how we as human especially designers and artists use drawing and sketching to help us to generate ideas and also strengthening them by interpreting the ‘blacktalk’ of a sketching process. The article shows that the backtalk of a self-generated sketch gives rise to novel information that is not deducible from other types of representations. In Goldschmidt discussion‚ she uses examples of children to show how sketches are used to

    The Effect of Concentration Gradient on Osmosis Abstract: Osmosis is the passive movement of water from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration‚ usually across a membrane (Thorpe 2013). Tonicity is the ability of a solution surrounding a cell to gain or lose water (Reece 2011). There are many factors that affect the rate of osmosis. These include temperature‚ surface area‚ difference in water potential‚ pressure‚ light and dark and most importantly what we will be talking

    Egg Osmosis Lab The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate an example of a spontaneous reaction and its connection to metabolism; in this case it was osmosis. The procedures that we used to complete the experiment were taking five eggs that had been soaked in a sucrose solution and then placing each one in containers of sucrose that each had different levels of concentration. The mass of each egg was measured before being placed into the solutions and then every 10 minutes after until they had soaked

    Date: 28/11/13 EVALUATION OF THE EFFECT OF SODIUM CHLORIDE ON ONION EPIDERMAL CELLS INRODUCTION A living plant cell will shrinks or swells depending on the solute concentration of the cell in relation to the solute concentration of the fluid surrounding the cell (1). It follows that water will move from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration therefore‚ if a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution water will move from the cell into the solution until the

    You may be wondering what diffusion‚ tonicity‚ osmosis and semipermeable membrane is. I’ll start off by explaining semipermeable membrane. A semipermeable membrane relates to the dialysis lab #1 because in dialysis tubing is considered semipermeable barriers. Semipermeable membrane is a membrane that allows passage of some particles but not others. (Lab manual) Diffusion on the other hand‚ is a form of passive transport where particles move down their concentration gradient from a region of high

    Osmosis in potato cells Aim: To view and examine the effect different concentrations of sucrose solution has on the movement of water across the cell membrane. Hypothesis: That the potatoes will either increase or decrease in mass‚ due to the effect of the different concentrations. Osmosis will occur. Apparatus: * Fresh potatoes * Apple corer * Scalpel * Petri dishes X 10 * 50ml measuring cylinder * Distilled water * Paper towelling * Sucrose solutions:

    All organisms must have adaptations to survive. The adaptations that organisms develop help them to survive in their environments and then are passed down through reproduction. The genes are passed to future generations and adaptations continue to occur over long periods of time. Nature Works tells us‚” animals that are better adapted to their environment survive and breed. Animals that are not well adapted to an environment may not survive.” There are three types of adaptations that can occur: morphological

    Effect of Sucrose Solution on Osmosis Aim: The aim of the experiment is to show how varying the concentration of sucrose solution affects osmosis by changing different molar solutions of sucrose and water and how it affects the potato. Introduction: In this investigation I will be exploring the effect of varying concentration of sucrose sugar solution on the amount of activity between the solution and the potatoes. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a partially
