watched the Milgram experiment during the first lecture. The result of the experiment was very shocking to me – over half of the subjects would keep shocking the ‘learners’ until the end just because the experimenters required them to do so‚ even though the learners cried desperately for help. I think this experiment has fully revealed the destructive side of authority‚ which can turn a mature and conscientious adult into a tool for punishment or even killing. The experiment reminds me of the painful

Meselson–Stahl experiment From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia The Meselson–Stahl experiment was an experiment by Matthew Meselson and Franklin Stahl in 1958 which supported the hypothesis that DNA replication was semiconservative. In semiconservative replication‚ when the double stranded DNA helix is replicated each of the two new double-stranded DNA helices consisted of one strand from the original helix and one newly synthesized. It has been called "the most beautiful experiment in biology.[1]"

In this experiment‚ one of the big is osmosis‚ and how it had the overall impact in this excitement a little on osmosis. Osmosis takes place when two solutions of different concentrations are separated by a semi-permeable membrane in which the solvent can pass through but not the solute. In our experiment‚ we used a sucrose solution that will be a hypotonic concentration of solute. This tells us that the solution has a lower concentration of water than does the cells. Therefore‚ due to osmosis‚ the

Eric Wu 117 Experiment 1.6: Determination of Density Abstract: The purpose of the experiment was to determine if density is an intensive or extensive property of matter. The experiment proves that density is an intensive property. The density of an object remains the same no matter how much of it is present. The density is an intensive property because mass and volume changes at the same rate. Introduction: This experiment was designed to determine if density is an intensive or extensive

In this experiment‚ three different test subjects were used in order to look for significant metabolic changes when the test subjects were exposed to different drugs and physiological changes. In this test‚ three different rats were used to see the different metabolic rates when exposed to different drugs and hormones on a normal‚ healthy rat‚ a rat with no thyroid‚ and a rat with no hypophysis. The significance of this experiment is to show the difference in metabolism and metabolic rate in healthy

HOOKE’S LAW EXPERIMENT Aim: The aim of this experiment is to determine the force constant (k) of the particular spring used. Introduction Hooke’s Law: Hooke’s Law is a law that shows the relationship between the forces applied to a spring and change in its length (extension). The relation is best explained by the equation: F= -k Δx F: Is force applied to the spring this can be either the strain or stress that acts upon the spring. k: Is the spring constant and details how hard

point of water. I bet you didn’t know that! There’s a reason for that‚ but I’ll explain that a little later. First‚ let’s find out if salt can actually change the freezing and boiling point of water. To do so‚ we need to do an experiment. Now‚ if you’re going to do an experiment‚ you’re going to need a hypothesis. Let’s use mine. I said “if we know salt in the ocean’s water can affect its temperature‚ then I wondered if adding salt to regular tap water and bottled water would raise the water’s boiling

Effect of all-natural bath and body wash on millet seed growth. This experiment was conducted to determine what effect a household chemical would have on the growth of a plant. Everyday multitudes of chemicals are washed down the drains inside of our homes; many of these same chemicals are then being introduced into the environment through our water sources‚ such as rivers. This experiment will test the effect of all-natural bath and shower gel would have on the growth cycle of millet seeds. The

Yale University psychologist‚ Stanley Milgram‚ conducted an experiment in 1961 focusing on the conflict between obedience to authority and personal conscience. He examined justifications for acts of genocide offered by those accused at the World War II Nuremberg War Criminal trials. Their defense often was based on "obedience" - that they were just following orders from their superiors. Milgram’s experiment‚ which he told his participants was about learning‚ was to have participants (teacher) question
