of light that is scattered is equal to the number of cells. A colorimeter may also be used to determine the absorbance much easily and accurately. This would be at around 400nm – 600nm. A haemocytometer can also be used to count the number of microorganisms present in a culture. This is not the best method to use because it counts all the cells present however some of these cells may be dead thus providing inaccurate results. Viable counts can also be used to determine the amount of living cells

Introduction In this lab we had to design a system that would test if changing the mass‚ angle of release and length would have any effect on the period of a pendulum. Hypothesis As the length‚ mass and angle of release change‚ the period (T) will change for each one of these factors.

Biosphere Lab Report A biosphere can be defined a lot of different ways. Our interpretation of a biosphere is the area in which life can be contained within. In the case of the earth‚ it means as high as a bird can fly and as deep as fish can swim in the ocean. A biosphere is a closed system that has a constant flow of energy between the organisms living within it and it needs nothing outside of itself but sunlight to continue to be sustained. At the University of Arizona‚ they attempted to build

LAB REPORT HYPOTHESIS 1: Plants transpire the most when the environment has light and less humidity JUSTIFICATION: Water evaporates more readily because light stimulates the opening of the stomata and photosynthesis would occur. HYPOTHESIS 2: Transpiration would occur the second most when there’s light and lots of humidity. JUSTIFICATION: The light would allow photosynthesis to occur and the stomata to open but little if any diffusion of water out the leaf would occur. HYPOTHESIS 3:

Enzyme Lab Report Introduction The objective of this experiment was to determine if changes in pH or temperature affected the activity of enzymes‚ specifically the enzyme sucrase. Enzymes are protein molecules that act as biological catalysts to increase the speed of the reaction or to lower the activation energy of that reaction. However‚ the activity of an enzyme can be affected by physical factors such as pH and temperature because these factors alter the structure of the enzyme (Freeman‚ 2011)

Calorimetry Lab Report Waris Butt PHY 112 Mr. Fasciano Class #18336 06/08/14 Purpose: Heat flow will occur between objects in contact until no more heat flow is detectable. Using calorimetry to analyze heat flow quantitatively and the equation: Q = mc ΔT‚ to determine the specific heat capacity of an object and heat flow from or to an object; respectively. Materials: Circle K 44 oz Styrofoam cup with lid Large Plastic

technique is: Number Moles Concentrated Solution = Number Moles Dilute Solution. An instrument called a spectrophotometer detects the amount of light that passes through the sample and the percent transmittance can be recorded from the meter. In the lab‚ multiple homogeneous solutions are made. There was not a way to determine the differences in concentrations‚ but the Spec 20 made it possible to measure the difference. The Beer-Lambert Law is a graph used to record

Rachel Bohnenberger Professor Van Doorn ENVS 150-002 27 April 2015 GMOs Lab Report Introduction As the population of Earth increases exponentially‚ so does the demand for more food. One of the solutions to the question of how more food can be produced is Genetically Modified Organisms‚ or GMOs. There is an ongoing debate about whether or not GMOs are more beneficial or harmful to society. Some of the benefits to GMOs are: growing plants‚ such as corn‚ that are resistant to weeds and pests‚ larger

Osmosis Lab Report Hypothesis: Osmosis will occur when there is an uneven distribution of solute in a solvent. The higher the solute in solvent‚ then there will be a higher rate of osmosis through the diffusion gradient forming a hypertonic or hypotonic solution. Solvent with equal or no solute forms an isotonic solution. Materials: Distilled water‚ sucrose‚ dialysis tubing‚ string‚ 250 ml beaker. Procedure: To demonstrate and isotonic solution we needed 3 inches of dialysis tubing. We
