Virtual Lab: Optimizing Photosynthesis Maria Diaz March 12‚2012 Pre-Lab Questions 1. Which two variables are controlled in a similar manner? The two variables that can be controlled in a similar manner are CO2 & the light level. 2. How can you get the results to the investigation faster? You can get the results to the investigation faster by adjusting the speed at the bottom of the water weed simulation. 3. How will you be able to determine the rate of photosynthesis

multiple phenotypes that are correlated. In many clinical or psychological settings‚ diagnoses are made through a set of binary phenotypes. Currently‚ there are several statistical methods available to analyze multiple phenotypes‚ such as comparing the results from single phenotype analyses‚ and performing multivariate analysis for quantitative phenotypes. These methods can be extended for related samples. The authors proposed new approach to jointly evaluate a set of binary phenotypes for related

characteristics that enhance survival‚ they will increase in frequency from generation to generation. Fitness has a lot to do with Natural selection. Fitness is the ability for an offspring to survive and of course reproduce ‚ therefore giving it’s genotypes to the next generation. There are four basic principles within Natural selection. There is variation‚ heritable‚ populations may have more offspring than resources available and more favored traits

Explain what is meant by this phrase. This means that once the threshold is met‚ an action potential occurs. If the stimulus is too small an action potential does not occur. An action potential is usually initiated in an axon at or near what? The axon hillock‚ the initial segment‚ and the trigger zone. The adequate stimuli

Virtual Lab: Cell Cycle Lab (Onion Root Tip) In this virtual lab activity‚ you will be observing the cell cycle in the tip of an onion root. The root tip is responsible for the downward growth of the root and is one of the regions in the plant where cells are actively dividing and growing. Because of this‚ the root tip is an excellent system in which to observe the entire cell cycle‚ including the processes of nuclear division (mitosis) and cell division (cytokinesis). You will be submitting a

Calculation of Allele and Genotype Frequencies & Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium Theory INTRODUCTION Population geneticists study frequencies of genotypes and alleles within populations rather than the ratios of phenotypes that Mendelian geneticists use. By comparing these frequencies with those predicted by null models that assume no evolutionary mechanisms are acting within populations‚ they draw conclusions regarding the evolutionary forces in operation. In a constant environment‚ genes will continue

genes generate the Phenotype? “Every aspet of an organism is determined or influenced by the genes of the organism” What genes are‚ what they do‚ how they interact with eachother and the enviroment to generate a phenotype. Genes are segments of DNA that code for proteins or RNA molecules. These genes are the genetic material that is passed down from generation to generation in all species. The individual DNA segments each individual carries are known as their alleles or genotype. When two alleles

Virtual Lab: Enzyme Controlled Reactions Worksheet 1. Which of the following does NOT apply to an enzyme: b. Inorganic 2. When an enzyme catalyzes a reaction: a. Substrate(s) bind in the active site 3. Which of the following would interfere most with the ability of an enzyme to catalyze a reaction? a. Reduced concentration of substrate available 4. Feedback mechanisms regulate the rate of enzyme activity‚ effectively “turning off” an enzyme in a reversible way until more product is needed

Expiratory reserve volume decreased due to the rapid increase in breath rate. Normal resting breath rate is at an average 11.6 breaths per minute increased to 27 breaths per minute after exercise. The increase in BR causes expiration length to go below its normal 3 second interval. Therefore decreasing ERV by .6 Liters. Inspiratory reserve volume decreased due to the rapid increase in breath rate. Normal resting breath rate is at an average 11.6 breaths per minute increased to 27 breaths per

(VCL) Introduction / Generic Lab Introduction Virtual ChemLab is a collection of realistic simulations. There are two general chemistry laboratories‚ including quantum and inorganic. The purpose of the quantum laboratory is to allow students to explore and better understand the foundational experiments that led to the development of quantum mechanics. In general‚ the laboratory consists of an optics table where a source‚ sample‚ modifier‚ and detector combination can be placed to perform
