germinacion de las semillas se puede ver afectada de cierta forma. En esta investigación buscamos el por qué la germinación de las plantas se afecta al añadirle la sustancia Lysol ®, la cual no común en su ambiente. Las semillas se pusieron en platos petri sellados y en condiciones controladas por siete días. Escogimos a las semillas de lechuga como nuestra variable dependiente, y la solución de el detergente Lysol ® con diferentes concentraciones como nuestra variable independiente. El Lysol ® se estuvo

Designer babies are children that are born from embryos that have been genetically modified, or genetically screened, forms of IVF (In Vitro fertilisation). The embryo is removed from the female, put in a Petri dish and fertilised with the father's sperm, where the genetic structure of the embryo (in some cases it can be an immature egg cell; an oocytes) is analysed. With genetic screening, the embryos containing the undesired traits, such as sever health issues, are terminated. When the correct

Unknown bacteria determined to be Alcaligenes faecalis because of its morphological, physiological and metabolic properties. In a laboratory setting, it often becomes necessary to identify an unknown organism. In this experiment, researchers classified an unidentified bacterium based on its physical structure, colony morphology, optimal conditions and metabolic properties. A Gram stain using crystal violet, iodine, and safranin and a simple stain using methylene blue characterized the organism’s

this historic discovery in science. Stem cells are classified into two main types: embryonic stem cells and adults stem cells. Embryonic stem cells come from embryos that have developed from eggs that have been fertilized by male sperm or in a petri dish in a lab by artificial insemination. Stem cells are similar cells that have the ability to divide and differentiate into other cell types. In addition, stem cells have been discovered to have the ability to generate into any cell type. Embryonic
