It is important to question the decisions and ideas of authority, to support this argument one can look

Yeast Culture Lab I. Introduction 1. Yeasts are eukaryotic, unicellular fungi that inhabit liquid or moist habitats. They are heterotrophs and rely on complex organic substances for nutrition. Yeasts require oxygen for aerobic cellular respiration but some are also anaerobic with alternative aerobic methods for producing energy. They do not require light to grow and their temperature range varies which means they can survive in a multitude of different environments. Very common, they can be found

nanoT - VaryCell TM Micro stage for time lapse imaging and temperature mediated cellular studies. Cells derived from mammals have an optimum in vitro growth rate between 36°C to 37°C as their in vivo physiological temperature ranges between 36.5–37.5 °C (97.7–99.5 °F) in a normal individual. Homeostasis process maintains the constancy of the organism’s internal environment in response to changes in external conditions. Thermoregulation is part of the aforementioned process as controlled by the

Task 11 A. Identify at least five environments in which you are likely to find microbial life. Microorganisms are everywhere: in the air, soil, water, rocks, plants and animals and humans. Some thrive in intense heat, while others require extreme subzero temperatures. B. Describe five vital functions microbes serve. They produce oxygen by oxygenic photosynthesis which occurs in algae and cyanobacteria; also through decomposition they release mineral nutrients such as potassium and nitrogen from

Lab Safety against Pathogenic Bacteria Considering that there are still a lot of unknown bacteria, it is really important that in lab when handling bacteria extreme precaution is taken towards handling them and to treat them as pathogenic. Today it is an acknowledged fact that anyone in the laboratory whether they are researchers, scientist, or students must follow all guidelines and safety rules for their safety. Every laboratory has its own lab safety equipment and guidelines such as dress code

Have you ever wondered that animal testing has contributed to many medical breakthroughs in our lifetime? For my 1st claim I would like to address that us U.S citizens and people around the globe should consider animal testing because it has contributed to many life-saving cures and treatments for the people in need. According to an article on ProCon.org, this article states that “nearly every medical breakthrough in the last 100 years has resulted directly from research using animals”. This evidence
