Laboratory Exercise #5 Identification of Fungi Fungi‚ like bacteria‚ may be useful in industry but also problematic. Many produce important products including foods‚ chemicals‚ enzymes and pharmaceuticals such as antibiotics and hormones. Molds‚ however‚ in particular‚ are also common contaminants in industry. It is important to be able to recognize and identify them‚ therefore‚ in the laboratory. In today’s laboratory session you will examine some common molds and attempt to identify them.

Alcoholic Fermentation Lab Kylie Johnson 11-10-12 Introduction: Since we are regular human beings‚ of course we are going to consume a lot of energy in our lifetime. Most of the energy we consume comes from fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are a nonrenewable resource‚ and we are using these non-reusable ones uncontrollably. This is why we need to use more renewable resources. A way that we could do that is by the alcoholic fermentation of ethanol. Ethanol is a byproduct in corn‚ and it is one product

African Diaspora and the World After reading the short story “Diaspora” by Joanne Hyppolite‚ I got a vivid understanding of how diaspora can have an effect on one’s identity. Over the past month we have studied many theories and concepts concerning race‚ gender‚ and politics. There are three theories that capture the essence of Joanne Hyppolite’s worldview as a Haitian growing up in America: intersectionality‚ identity‚ and diaspora. Individuals oftentimes experience the theory of Intersectionality

Introduction The purpose of this lab was to calculate and determine the optimal dosage of ultraviolet (UV) light to expose Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) to that would result in a survival rate of 20-40%. Saccharomyces cerevisiae commonly referred to as baker’s yeast is a single-celled eukaryote. Yeast is capable of growing as either a haploid or a diploid cell. The diploid cell can reproduce mitotically or sporulate‚ a process initiating meiosis and forming an ascus with four spores (Sacchromyces

are located on chromosomes. Linkedgenes are located on the same chromosome and are inherited together. Wild fruit flies possess the dominant traits and alleles‚ whereas mutant fruit flies show the recessive traits and alleles. In this lab. genetics crosses will be performed on fruit flies to determine their sex and determine whether or not they have a mutation. Data will be collected from both an F and an F generation. Also to test the results of a cross between a sepia mutant 1 2 fruit fly and the normal

Biology Lab report #1 The uptake of neutral red dye in a yeast cell using different solutions Abstract Every cell transports materials in and out throught something called a membrane. There are many different methods of transport in the cell Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Serrano‚ 1977) We want to know does adding higher concentrations of azide more effectively block dye transport? We tested the transport of dye in yeast cells with a metabolic inhibitor. When we did this we showed no difference

3‚ and 4. the fourth chromosome is very tiny and rarely heard from. The size of the genome is about 165 million bases and contains and estimated 14‚000 genes (by comparison‚ the human genome has 3‚400 million bases and may have about 22‚500 genes; yeast has about 5800 genes in 13.5 million base bases). The genome has been completely sequenced and analysis of the data is now mostly complete. Fruit fly is a most commonly used model organism in studies such as genetics‚ biology‚ physiology and life

The Variation of Yeast Cells When Adding an Antibiotic Biology 1401- A October 21‚ 2013 Abstract. -- The main focus in this experiment was to find out if antibiotics affect yeast cells culture when added. The observation of the two cultures along with the yield of yeast cell reproduction between the two cultures was the sole purpose of the experiment; culture-A (- antibiotic) and culture-B (+ antibiotic). Our hypothesis stated whether antibiotic effects yeast cells cultures. This theory was
