Sucrose

cued or non-cued condition involving two groups of cardboard circles where half of them were on a 10-min interval, and the other half on a 20-min interval. They were all one colour or two colours based on the interval, acting as flowers, and held a sucrose solution. As previously stated, hummingbirds in the cued condition learned to revisit the 10-min interval stimuli sooner than the 20-min interval. There was no…

Introduction Microbes are found everywhere and are the oldest from of life on Earth. They are so small that millions can fit into the eye of a needle and most microbes are harmless and are crucial for our existence on Earth. Not all microbes are harmless and many in fact can cause serious damage to plants, animals and humans. A pathogen is anything that can cause a disease or illness to its host and includes worms, bacteria, protozoa, viruses and fungus. This report will focus on food…

Introduction With Thesis Are we digging our own graves? Is the food that we eat actually good for us or is it slowly killing us? Growing up, I thought all fruits and vegetables were beneficial to my health. Hence the reasons our parents would make us sit at the dinner table until we finished our brocolli, even if it meant sitting there for hours. I remember grocery shopping with my mom and never even thinking once that anything in the store would be unhealthy for me. But I could have never been…

2.1. Artificial Insemination (AI) : Development of techniques for successful. .freezing of spermatozoa has progressively evolved over the. . Past 60 years (Kucuk et al., 2014). At the starting of 20th century Ivanov started studying on artificial insemination (AI) of sheep’s, where Ivanov’s .studies on extenders and reproduction resulted in the development and the practical application of AI in farm animals, reviewed by (Bohlooli et al., 2012). AI provides. .many advantages to farmers and…

Phaseolus vulgaris L. (Leguminosae/Fabaceae) is commonly known as kidney bean. It is named so because of its resemblance in shape and colour to human kidney [1]. It is an edible item consumed by large number of people in Asian and Eastern countries. It is a sub-erect or twining annual herb. It was the first cultivated crop by the early humans. It is considered to have originated from Peru. Then it spread to Central and South America by Indian traders who brought it from Peru. But it is now grown…

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…

Macromolecules are of great interest to the study of anatomy and physiology due to the fact that they carry out most functions of a cell providing it with life. They provides structural support, a source of stored fuel, the ability to store and retrieve genetic information, and ability to speed biochemical reactions (Prakash, 2008). There are four main types of macromolecules including proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acid and lipids. This essay is specifically on the study of carboyhdrates as…

The activities alcohol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation allowed each group to gain a visual understanding of the way fermentation works. In the unrestricted alcohol fermentation part of the activity, each group had their own glass fermentation chamber to pour a solution in. In my group’s fermentation chamber we used starch solution alone. In the alcohol fermentation groups had a total of eight combinations to put into test tubes. In the lactic acid fermentation groups were able to make…
