of the consequences of excessive drinking. After connecting with her‚ I wanted to know if alcohol concentration in spirits would affect the cells in the body. Thus‚ I decided to test my theory by adapting a class beetroot experiment to my investigation. The aim of this experiment is to investigate the effect of alcohol concentration on a biotic cell membrane. The human body cannot live long with damaged cells because they are the building blocks of life. Cell membranes are phospholipid bilayers meaning

November 9‚ 2014 Madison Phillips Report Submitted: November 9‚ 2014 Title: Beers Law and Calorimetry Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to apply Beer’s Law by analyzing samples provided by Q laboratory to determine their absorbance and prepare a Beer’s law plot. Molarity of these samples was also calculated to determine concentration and percent error rate. Students also analyzed the concentration of blue dye #1 to determine the concentration of blue dye #1 in a commercial blue dye drink

associated with water and air flowing vertically upwards was investigated through a bed of coarse ballotini (glass beads with a nominal diameter of 485 microns).Different flow rates for water and air is applied to determine the pressure drop and differentiate between the fixed bed and the fluidized bed characteristics. Also the measured onset of fluidization was compared with the predicted one. From this experiment it was obtained thatthe pressure drop increase as increasing the fluid (water or air) rates

Maintaining adequate electrolyte levels will enable better cell function‚ which is needed for muscle endurance‚ among other bodily capabilities when exercising. On the other end Glucose is an important source of energy‚ and water balance is required to maintain blood pressure and proper tissue functions. Even though water contains the required amounts of sodium and potassium‚ water

community as a whole is altered (Friedman 2017). To study succession‚ one must use one of the following methods: to observe any patterns that occur‚ to conduct experiments that manipulate specific variables in a community‚ or to construct a model that may undergo succession. One example of an experiment that measures microbial succession was an experiment observing changes in traditional Chinese soy sauce over time (Sulaiman et al. 2014). The fermentation of the soy sauce brine revealed that the primary bacteria

Introduction In my report I will discuss what I did as an experiment and what I hope for it to achieve. Firstly I carried out an experiment to assay the effectiveness that a range of disinfectants have on the growth of ecoli and whether or not it can prevent it from growing. From the experiment i should be able to see that some disinfectants have a greater effect than others do. From this I shall then draw a conclusion and evaluation on what was the most effective‚ and could there have been any

SUMMARY The aim is to observe distillation process of ethanol-water solution and to measure the alcohol content after process in this experiment. 500 ml of solution with an alcohol content of 32% (v/v) is used for this experiment. Temperature values are recorded for every 10 ml alcohol obtained in the flask. The process is repeated in our experiment and for the first process‚ the data collection process continues until the distillate reaches to 200 ml. The concentration of alcohol is measured for

This experiment tested the growth of E.coli with inserted plasmid on an agar plate with Ampicillin. One colony of E.coli resistant to Ampicillin was grown during this experiment. The overall goal of the experiment was to successfully grow E.coli on the agar plate‚ which would show that the plasmid had been effectively inserted into the bacteria’s genes. This experiment helped students understand how plasmids were inserted into bacteria and used in real life situations. It also showed how the bacteria’s
