The hormones Gibberellins and how they affect growth in Brassica Rapa seedlings Jordyn Ackerman INTRODUCTION Gibberellins are a group of plant growth hormones. Found in seeds and in parts of adult plants, theses hormones affect the growth of many plant traits. Gibberellin influences plant attributes like, flower yield, style dry weight, and plant weight, height, and width (Tookalloo, M.R., Mollafilabi, A., & Mohassel, M.H.R. 2010). These hormones work by increasing cell divisions, resulting in

Introduction A. Report Objective Many sports drinks line the supermarket shelves. Often most obvious difference is the shape and in turn utility, capacity and appearance of the bottle. Some bottle shapes are standard, while others have a more complex design. Neither of the designs is perfect, neither of them fulfills its purpose properly and neither of them provides full customer satisfaction. Through our research and analysis, we have designed a bottle that is not only unique in style, but fits

or base(swc2.hccs.edu). They are not as accurate as the instruments the scientists use to measure pH, but they acceptable for the experiments below. What is the pH of various solutions? There were two experiments conducted: The Pre-Lab Exercise and Procedure B. Pre-Lab Exercise In this experiment, two different approaches were used to measure the pH for a variety of substances. One was the pH paper and the other was the electronic pH meter. | pH measured with pH paper | pH measured with

Main purpose of Lab: This lab is mainly emphasizes on how we collect water sample from three different locations such as paddle boat, fish dock and finally from Gees area. The sample analyzed in the lab measure the turbidity and also measures the bacterial colonies (Escherichia Coli and Coliform bacteria). Introduction: E. coli (Escherichia coli) are an adherent of the coliform group of bacteria and are present simply in the warm-blooded animal’s intestines, counting humans. When present in drinking

The Effects of Peroxidase on Enzyme Activity Gianna Crowe Bio Lab 117 October 16th, 2014 Most enzymes are proteins that speed up reactions and are characterized as catalysts. Enzymes work in such a way that when the right chemicals of a molecule are present for the enzyme, it will fully fit the shape. The part of the particular shape is called the active site of the enzyme, since this is where the reaction occurs. The molecule that the enzyme works on is called the substrate. An enzyme reaction

2.6 OXIDIZED CELLULOSE: Cellulose-based materials are available as oxidized regenerated cellulose obtained from wood pulp cellulose and oxidized cellulose obtained from cotton fiber. They are completely biodegradable, biocompatible, absorb up to 7 times their own weight. They are available in various forms like single or multiple sheets, mesh, gauze, sponges, and woven strips. Fig 8: Cellulose structure [1] Cellulose acts as a physical matrix to support clot formation. They do not contain any intrinsic

Abstract Hydroponics is a method where the roots or the half of the shoot system of the plants are subjected to water which itself will become the growing medium of the mentioned plant. Moreover, this kind of technique is used mostly by soil less society wherein scarcity in soil has been a distress also to the results of modernization. In relation to that is Aeration, a process of applying Oxygen amounts in a Hydroponics system. The researchers plan to investigate the effect of Aeration to the growth
