The purpose of this experiment was to determine the presence of the analgesic compounds acetaminophen, aspirin, caffeine, and salicylamide in the over-the-counter medications Anacin, Bufferin, Excedrin, and Tylenol. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was used to analyze solutions of the medications; the TLC plates were visualized using ultraviolet light and iodine staining.The ten micropipets used to spot the TLC plates were made from glass capillary tubes by heating the middle of each tube in a…

climate in the world. They are a vertebrate, which means they have a backbone or spine. Most live on land and they typically give birth to live young. Description of gas exchange: In mammals gas exchange takes place in the lungs. Mammals inhale oxygen though their mouth as part of ventilation and exhales carbon dioxide. The air travels down the trachea before it branches off into the two bronchi. Branching off the bronchi are the bronchioles that transport the air to the alveoli where gas…

Kick seining is a way for people to find aquatic macroinvertebrates in the water. There are three different ways of Kick seining within a creek. Once a creek is found you can begin. The first way is to have someone holding the net and the other person walks towards the net and kicks up the water and rocks. This is so that the organisms at the bottom of the river are pushed up into the net to be looked at. Secondly, there is the two person way to kick seining. This is where there is one person…

He states that his signs of GERD have resolved after starting therapy four weeks ago. Common side effects of Prilosec include fever, cold symptoms such as stuffy nose, sneezing, sore throat, stomach pain, gas, nausea, vomiting, mild diarrhea, or headache. L.G.’s new onset of abdominal pain and vomiting could be related…

Introduction: Limonene is a terpene that can be isolated from orange peels almost 100% in the (R)-(+)-limonene form. The essential oil from the orange peel belongs to terpenes, which are compounds that are made up of two or more five carbon units, named isoprene.1 The limonene is a monoterpene, which means it is made up of two isoprene units. Natural products are related compounds formally derived from isoprene units are terpenoids.3 The skeleton of terpenoids may differ from strict additivity…

Gravimetric Analysis of a Metal Carbonate Purpose The purpose of this lab is to find the mass of an unknown metal by conducting a double-displacement precipitation reaction, which is our gravimetric analysis. Once we find the precipitate mass, we can then find the molar mass by using the molar ratio given in the reaction equation. Procedure First, we set up the ring stand with a Bunsen burner, put a crucible on top of the pipe stem triangle and heated the crucible for a minute, then let it…

Have you ever wondered why soda corrodes metals such as pennies, nails, etc.? How does it corrode them? One of the questions is if the soda does corrode the pennies how long will it take and why does it do it. It will take five days to fully corrode the pennies back to their shiny state, and will make them look brand new though they are probably a few years old. This test could get people to stop drinking soda which would lessen the risk of type 2 diabetes that can be caused by being overweight.…

For our diffusion experiment our group decided to work with salt water and gummy bears. Our experiment tested the weight of the gummy bears per salt dilutions. Our tests included 1g 2.5g 5g, 1.5g, and 10g of salt diluted with water. We knew that the higher the concentration of salt diluted into the water the heavier the diffused gummy bear would be, therefore we measure weight as our numerical data. My hypothesis was that the 10g dilution of salt would have the gummy bear with the largest…

Stomach content analysis provides important insight into fish feeding patterns. Feeding of fish represents an integration of many important ecological components that included behaviour, condition, habitat use, energy intake and inter/intra specific interactions, etc. Accurate description of fish diets and feeding habits also provides the basis for understanding trophic interactions in aquatic food webs. Conceptually, trophic relations of fishes begin with foods and feeding behaviour of…

produce ATP (Campbell 2011). ATP is used as energy in the synthesis of light or also known as Photosynthesis . ATP is used by photosynthetic organisms to produce their own food and also by performing cellular respiration. It needs mainly glucose and oxygen that involves the transfer of electrons in a chemical reaction. Cellular respiration is the process of producing energy from the food. (McKean D.G. and Hayward D. 2014). Yeast, is composed only of a single cell, but has all the…
