“Home” Video Lab 1.) As the Earth cooled water vapor became condensed causing it to fall as rain. The Earths balance in distance from the Sun enabled it to conserve this water in a liquid form. The water cut channels, took minerals from the soil and was added to the oceans. Oceans became heavy with salt. There are two types of bacteria that were then talked about in the film, Archaebacteria and Cyanobacteria. Archaebacteria survive in environments similar to those found on the young Earth, in

Izzaaz Haaziq Hishamudin Life Science Lab Report. Section 808 Photosynthesis. 19th of October 2012. Introduction Definition: Photosynthesis is the physico-chemical process by which plants, algae and photosynthetic bacteria use light energy to drive the synthesis of organic compounds. In plants, algae and certain types of bacteria, the photosynthetic process results in the release of molecular oxygen and the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere that is used to synthesize carbohydrates

Clean Water Project Report Day 1- “The Balanced Equation” Documentary Notes In the documentary, “The Balanced Equation”, a group of high school girls tells their story of traveling to Kenya and the Dominican Republic to investigate and learn more about issues dealing with water in developing countries. The girls focus primarily on problems with water that exist in these countries and the water filtration systems being provided. According to the video, approximately 3.5 million people die from water-related

Lab Research Report 2: Global Warming: Cause and Mitigation Rhys Greer September 14, 2014 Dr. Rana Miller Strong University Compare and contrast natural versus anthropogenic climate changes. Include specific examples of each. In an article written by the United States Environmental Association (EPA) it lists natural changes in greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations, volcanic eruptions and solar energy as some of the natural causes of climate changes on earth. The article goes on to say “Recent

the Rate of Fermentation? Amy Smith Biology Lab 121 November 21, 2013 Partner: Courtney Sargent Professor: Dr. Marietta Wright Introduction: Fermentation is a process that yeast uses to make carbon dioxide. This occurs in an anaerobic setting filled with fluid (Vullo and Wachsman, 2005). This type of fermentation produces energy. Through glycolysis some of glucose is broken down, but the molecule that is formed cannot go into the Krebs cycle. Instead, it enters another pathway that does

1H NMR shows a mix of both the diastereomers, but it is difficult to ascertain which one is in excess. Introduction The aldol reaction that was experienced in this lab is the nucleophillic addition of an enolate to a carbonyl group to form a B-hydroxycarbonyl. This reaction is a very powerful method to construct of carbon-carbon bonds. Nature has developed the aldolase enzymes that catalyze biological aldol reactions. Aldolase is the enzyme that produces only one enantiomeric product that is hard

during incremental exercise. When an individual exercises there is an increase of oxygen consumption, which is the result of the individual breathing more deeply and frequently. In order to measure oxygen consumption in an individual oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) need to be analyzed. Then to calculate the rate

It usually happens when, during photosynthesis, the plant's stomata is open so that Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen can pass through. When transpiration occurs, not only is the water cycle being executed, but also it pulls water up from the roots into the plant leaves, supplies needed materials for
