Observations
During this experiment, it was observed that sucrose shows a soluble component which physical appearances results to be more crystal in nature and bonded together during the first separation. The separation of dichloromethane and sodium hydroxide reveal two layers of different density liquids solution whereby one is denser in nature than the other solution. The dense solution is referred to as the sodium hydroxide while the bottom layer which occurs to be less dense is referred to as the dichloromethane. One of the components of panacetin was observed in the dense sodium hydroxide solution and the component was separated using extraction method. Once 1.0 mL of 6 M hydrochloric acid was added

    Purpose and Background Cells divide in two ways, mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is used to produce cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell for growth, asexual reproduction, or repair after injury. Cells that are produced by mitosis are diploid, meaning that they have two complete sets of chromosomes, one from each parent. Meiosis is used to produce haploid cells that have only one set of chromosomes, a mix of chromosomes from both parents. Meiosis produces cells that are genetically unique from their parent cells.…

    Interactive Question 7.2 Cite some experimental evidence that indicates that membrane proteins drift. A good form of experimental evidence is Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching, aka FRAP. In the FRAP process, membrane proteins are labelled with a green fluorescent protein, and part of the plasma membrane is “bleached” with a laser, causing them to lose their fluorescence. The part that was bleached will eventually become fluorescent again, as molecules drift in by diffusion.…

    The focus of this lab was to identify an unknown organism based on its characteristics and the results from each of the tests. There will be various of test to choose from in order to identify the unknown organism, which will eliminate numerous possibilities and narrow it down to one. All the fundamental skills that we have learned and practiced in the lab will be used to perform on our unknown such as aseptic technique, microscopic examination, the use of differential media, and determining if it’s positive or negative. Performing aseptic techniques is the most crucial step that requires the utilizing of transferring, inoculating, and storing bacterial cultures and media. Aseptic technique is defined as procedures that prevent contamination…

    In this experiment, the components of “Wellactin A” were separated into sucrose, an unknown carboxylic acid, and an unknown organic neutral compound. The unknown compounds were identified by their melting points and the percent recovered was calculated. First, the sucrose was separated by dissolving the organic acid and the organic neutral compound in diethyl ether. 104.9% was recovered, so that means the sucrose was not entirely pure.…

    In the first week, 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask contained 20 grams of dissolved sucrose in 200 mL of room temperature water. 0.30 grams Pasteur’s salts and 0.20 grams of dried yeast were added into the mixture separately, as the Erlenmeyer flask gently moved in a swirled motion to mix the substances. Aluminum foil was lightly crimped over the opening of the Erlenmeyer flask, and fermented for two weeks. When time is up, 6 mL of the solution was placed into a vial. The fraction distillation was performed using a 250 mL round bottomed flask; 20 mL of solution was collected per three fractions.…

    In this lab, we carried out a variety of reactions using different chemicals and metals. A chemical reaction is when the chemical state of the substance you are testing rearranges its ionic and molecular structure. One of the reactions we experienced was single replacement, this consists of one ion switching places with another ion to form a new compound. Another reaction we saw was double replacement. In this reaction, two compounds ions are switched to form two new compounds.…

    Homogenates of liver were provided. The homogenates were made by homogenizing liver in a 1:20 w/v (1g: 20 ml) ratio in a sucrose-phosphate buffer, in which 250mM of sucrose and 50mM NaPO, with a pH of 7.4 were added. This information was used to conduct an experiment to determine the concentration of DNA, protein, and carbohydrates in different homogenate samples, including heart, liver, and kidney of Bos taurus, while also looking for the diverse protein sizes found in each homogenate sample. The liver homogenate was then stored at -70°C.…

    For my experiment, I choose to use both the red and green color lens filters. I initially was going to select blue, but when realizing it did little alteration apart from making white appear brighter I opted for a red and green filter. Like both my mother and father, I have Deuteranomalia which means I have a difficult time discerning from reds (appearing more brown) and greens (appearing more yellow). While my father has deuteranopia meaning his green cone is missing, I suffer from deuteranomaly, which makes it hard for me to distinguish between reds, yellows, and greens. By using the red and green filters, both colors which I already have a hard time distinguishing, my color-deficiency drastically increased.…

    Osmosis is the net movement of water towards higher concentration. In osmosis experiment, water likes to diffuse from an area of low-solute concentration to an area of high-solute concentration. The purpose of the osmosis experiment was to observe the diffusion of solutes and the osmosis of water through a semipermeable membrane, which was dialysis tubing. This experiment was done to examine, if the solution is hypertonic, hypotonic or isotonic.…

    Purpose: The overall goal of this lab was to perform a procedure on E. Coli which involved transferring genes that encoded for the green fluorescent protein into E. Coli to see if the transferred genes would make a difference on the growth and whether or not the bacteria would glow under UV light. Hypothesis: If the bacteria with the pGLO plasmid was grown on a plate containing LB and ampicillin then the bacteria will grow but not glow under UV light. If the bacteria with the pGLO plasmid was grown on a plate containing LB, ampicillin, and arabinose then it will be able to grow and glow under UV light. If the bacteria without pGLO plasmid was grown on a plate containing LB and ampicillin then it will not be able to grow or glow under UV light.…

    The objective of this lab was to understand the process of making a frankfurter from beginning to end, the purpose of the processing steps to reach the final product and how the stages of the process and how different ingredients can change the emulsion of the final product. The first stage of making frankfurters include grinding the lean pork meat and backfat separately, then the Quick cure and seasonings are mixed with the lean pork, in the presence of ice, the fat is added and the mixture is chopped to a desired temperature. The mix is then stuffed into links and smoked. For the regular frankfurters, the initial mixture was chopped to a temperature of 6°C before adding the fat and chopping until 13°C was reached. The overchopped frankfurters…

    “Discussion of Results The goals of this experiment were approached in many ways. To figure out the solubility, which is the ability of a solid dissolving in a liquid, of oils, fats, and detergents, the group tried to dissolve all the beginning substances and finished products in a multitude of solvents. In the testing of the four starting substances for the soaps, the group found that all the substances were insoluble in water and hydrochloric acid. However, vegetable oil was soluble in sodium hydroxide whereas the rest of the substances were not.…

    All living systems contain buffer solutions to sustain the structure and activity of biological components such as DNA, RNA, proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. Buffer solutions are remarkably resistant to pH changes and generally consist of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. In the laboratory, artificially made buffers are often used to help maintain a biological system at the proper pH. A laboratory buffer should be inert in the system being studied. For example, Tris buffer is unsuitable for some protein assays because it reacts with the assay components.…
