Determining the affects of natural selection on gall fly (Eurosta) larvae from different predators Ariel O’Neil Biology 1020H Abstract This lab was done with the objective of determining if directional selection causes early larvae death in the gall fly. By first examining the parasitoid wasp and birds predatory actions we can hypothesize and predict the smaller galls will be most likely to survive directional selection. To figure out if this is true or not a large variety of goldenrod galls were collected from an open field and examined. Once the information of all the galls was recorded it was then graphed. This revealed that there was no correlation between gall size and larvae death. One can conclude the results did not support the hypothesis and prediction. Introduction…

The goals of this study was to find interactions between the goldenrods that had the gall and the ones that where besides them but without the gall. There were 15 pairs and each pair where cut from the bottom and all the fifteen pairs where find in the same area and this could cause less variation in the data. When comparing the means of the goldenrods flowers the ones that had the gall weighs more than the ones without the gall and this could been since there are insects parasitizing the gall…

Gallstones or Gall Bladder stones are hard deposits present in your gall balder which are mainly made up of cholesterol, salt, or bilirubin, that are discarded red blood cells. These stones move stealthily inside the gall bladders. The gall bladder is a small organ that functions as the storage place for bile (a digestive fluid) that is made in the liver. These stones also vary in size as in some cases, they are as small as grains or sometimes they are large as the size of a plum. In 80 percent…

1. Gall, M., & Acheson, K. (2011). Clinical supervision and teacher development: Preservice and inservice applications (6th ed.). Hoboken, NJ: Wiley. In this book Gall and Acheson set to address three goals before its completion. The first goal was to give the ready a comprehensive look at clinical supervision. The second goal was to write a book that clinical supervisors would put to use in their daily work. The third goal was to write a book that was consistent with their beliefs that…

Aqrobacterium tumefaciens. for a long time has been doing what molecular biologists are now striving to do. It has been inserting foreign genes into plants and getting the plants to express those genes in the form of proteins. In the process the bacterium causes the plant cells to proliferate and form a gall or tumour, most commonly at or near the junction of the root and the stem. The crown gall is a neoplastic disease of plants caused by Aqrobacterium. The interest in the bacteria stems from…

Daniel Gall (A celebration of the life of Daniel Gall) People die everyday. It is a fact of life and is something that will never change. In life we have two appointments we make on time, birth and death. It is the time in between that we get to enjoy and make of it what we want. It is also the time that everyone remembers us after we meet our second appointment. What you do in your life is how people remember you after your life. We remember these times as a celebration of the…

Question 1 The Benedictine abbey of St. Gall and the Cistercian Abbey of Fontenay both bear designs that reflect the monastic lifestyle which was defined by the 6th century Rule of St. Benedict. The monastic design of the abbeys is characterized by main features such as a church, dormitories meant for sleep, a caldarium, a cloister and a chapterhouse. The Rule of Saint Benedict called for monks to maintain a life of obedience, chastity and poverty. Furthermore, it also stated that monks should…

the 84 dried galls was measured. Each gall was weighed and inspected for holes. If Eurosta were successful, there would be one or more fly emergence holes of 2.0 mm. If birds had preyed upon the galls there would be one or more larger jagged hole(s) from birds pecking into the gall to extract larvae. If the galls were hyperparasatized by wasps, there would be one or more holes of smaller than 2.0mm. Through JMP software, a t-test was used to determine if the mean diameters of hyperparasatized…

removing the gall bladder without the need to those several cuts that were usually done during traditional open and laparoscopic surgeries. What Is Cholecystectomy? Why Is Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery A Preferred Treatment? Some patients may suffer from gall stones, or an inflamed or a not well-functioning gall bladder. In such cases, a doctor may recommend (after performing a careful analysis) to surgically remove the gall bladder. Such operation is scientifically termed as '…

Britta yawned steadily as she, Gall and Vig crested the last rise of the Wolf’s Bane. She felt a surge of emotions as the path they followed spilled down the slopes of the mountains onto the plains of Cazidor. Before them lay her homeland, childhood home, and yet, no longer a safe haven. Now merely a stop on some quest that she neither asked for nor wanted. That they would not pass through Wolfbern was a blessing, in some respects. She would not have to deal with her father, who gave her, like a…
