Introduction Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO)‚ are organisms whose genetic material has been artificially manipulated in a laboratory through the means of Genetic Engineering. It is when a gene from one organism is taken and inserted into another in order to improve and produce a desired trait for that certain organism. Sometimes it is known as "transgenic" for transfer of genes. Mostly‚ GMOs are done with agricultural crops and animals that are consumed for food. Food‚ most needed by humans

The poem the unknown citizen written by w.h Auden portrays from the point of view of the government what or how an ideal citizen should look like. This piece is written in third person omniscient to project a non-bias perspective and that way transmit the “truth” without being affected by feelings or personal point of views. Moreover at the end of the poem the author makes a relevant turn which effect is making the reader question himself if what was depicted before is the right thing‚ if that ideal

Isolation of Unknown: 71 mL of boiling H2O were poured int an Erlenmeyer flask with 0.93 g of unknown to dissolve it. After reaching room temperature‚ the flask was placed into a bucket with ice and DI H2O. The unknown was collected by vacuum filtration‚ rinsed with ice water‚ and dried to constant mass at 0.72 g. 13C NMR (100.13 MHz‚ acetone-D6): σ 15.5 (s‚ Me)

Open Ended Investigation aim To photograph six different organisms (not including humans)‚ classify them to the level of ‘family’‚ determine one characteristic that places them in each of their groups‚ and then use those organisms to construct a dichotomous key. Method Collecting Photographs of Organisms 1. Walk to a location with natural flora and fauna. (In this case I went to the Jim Ring Reserve) 2. Photograph at least two different species of ducks‚ and if possible‚ other birds which reside

we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don’t know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we do not know we don’t know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together‚ and we then say well that’s basically what we see as the situation‚ that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns. And each year‚ we discover a few more of those unknown unknowns.” I would have told you that I thought

Lillian Zhang AP Chemistry 3rd Period Formula of an Unknown Hydrate The purpose of the Formula of an Unknown Hydrate lab is to determine the weight percentage of H2O hydrated to an unknown salt and the empirical formula for the hydrated salt. To do this‚ a massed amount of the hydrate is heated over either a hot plate or Bunsen burner. This causes the water to be removed‚ leaving the anhydrous salt behind in the dish. The mass of the anhydrous salt‚ now with the absence of water‚ is less than

involves two oxidation-reduction reactions to calculate the oxidizing capacity of a sample of unknown bleach. In order to determine the volume of Na2S2O3 added‚ students will conduct a titration of bleach with thiosulfate with addition of a starch indicator to find the end point of the titration. Moreover‚ the oxidizing capacity of bleach is calculated with the percentage by mass of NaOCl in the unknown bleach sample. The overall chemical reaction throughout the experiment will be balanced with the

many class lab days‚ I concluded my unknown was Calcium Carbonate due to results from the Flame Test and Anion I Test. Throughout our lab days‚ my friends would help me determine various odors and colors of the substances which allowed me to confirm my answer. Also‚ I looked select test results up on the internet to see if they matched my observations. On our first lab day‚ I received my bottle and noticed a white precipitate in the bottom therefore‚ my unknown was insoluble. I started my testing

Determine the concentration of an unknown copper (II) sulfate solution by using colorimeter Introduction: The concentration of the solution also alterations the proximity of the solution. For example‚ the more focused concentration will frame to be denser than more weakened concentration of copper (ii) sulfate. This implies there is a connection between the concentration of an solution and its absorbance. Along these lines‚ this test is set up to discover the kind of connection between the concentration

Unknown Anomaly In the not so distant future‚ humanity has expanded its reach to distant planets‚ seeking refuge from Earth’s depleted resources. Among these colonies is Terra Nova‚ a swarming settlement on the outskirts of known space. Captain Brian Laurier leads the exploration vessel‚ the Mercury X‚ on a mission to scout new planetary systems for colonization. During a routine mission‚ the Mercury X encounters a peculiar anomaly—a rift in space-time that defies all known laws of physics. Its
