When the pH is not at its optimum, the differing pH's will disrupt the bonding between the R groups of the amino acid causing its structure and the shape of the activation site to change

Purpose: To become familiar with the International System of Units and common laboratory equipment and techniques. To learn how to determine volume, mass, length, and temperature of a wide variety of items. To learn how to calculate density and concentration of dilutions.

The purpose of this particular lab was to experiment and identify the chemical and physical changes throughout the experiment.

Procedure: Using distilled water, premeasured containers and objects determine displacement of fluids and density of objects. Use ice and heat measure temperatures in Celsius, Fahrenheit and Kelvin.

The purpose of this lab is to test substances and to determine the physical and chemical properties of substances.

A. Water boils at 100°C at sea level. If the water in this experiment did not boil at 100°C, what could be the reason?

2. _C____ Divide your subjects in half. One group receives one treatment of the independent variable and the other group receives a different treatment of the independent variable. Subjects were all told they were going to see a video of a therapist's session after which they would rate the quality of the session. The groups differed in that the subjects in one group were told that prior evaluations indicated that the therapist was effective whereas subjects in the other group were told that the evaluations indicated the therapist was not effective. These different subjects were used for the two levels of the independent variable: subjects were in either the "effective therapist" or the "ineffective therapist" condition.

-The more dissolved oxygen in the water, the more fish is observed in that area of water.

Abstract: This experiment introduced the student to lab techniques and measurements. It started with measuring length. An example of this would be the length of a nickel, which is 2cm. The next part of the experiment was measuring temperature. I found that water boils around 95ºC at 6600ft. Ice also has a significant effect on the temperature of water from the tap. Ice dropped the temperature about 15ºC. Volumetric measurements were the basis of the 3rd part of the experiment. It was displayed during this experiment that a pipet holds about 4mL and that there are approximately 27 drops/mL from a short stem pipet. Part 4 introduced the student to measuring

Corresponding to the previous experiment, this week’s experiment measures the participants’ ability to conduct basic, fundamental laboratory procedures. These procedures revolve around scientific measurements of volume, mass, and density. Unlike last week’s activity, this week’s experiment had a few modifications. In addition to distilled water, saltwater and an unknown substance were added. There was a total of five substances to choose from; Hexane, Methanol, Ethyl acetate, Ethylene glycol, and Dichloromethane. Part C, the unknown liquid number was four, which the average density was 0.789 gmL-1, and from looking at the chart the unknown identity was methanol. Part A, the temperature of the water was 20 oC, which was in front of the class,

8. The people who make up this article is the students from 7 different universities. It was rather representative because they were from universities that were located across the US, not just from one specific area. This was a unsystematic selection procedure because they weren’t from specific groups or students, just casual students from the seven different universities which created a representative sample of a big population.

When you are doing the displacement method there can be an error on how much volume of water you accurately pour in.

The purpose of this lab was for the student to get involved with his or hers new lab kit as well as being able to know, identify and use each other tools provided in the kit. Another key learning aspect of this lab is to teach the student how to measure properly the many units in the SI system. I will be using laboratory dilutions, measurements, and weights to then calculate using algebraic formula.

Load acts over outer circumference of on end of the cylinder, while the other end remains against a

The overall purpose of the lab is to have the students practice designing an experiment, gathering data, and then analyzing that data to form a conclusion using the scientific method. It also served to understand key terms such as hypothesis, dependent variable, and independent variable. The specific objective of this lab is to determine whether certain human body parts experience allometric or isometric growth. Allometric growth defines when certain parts of an organism grow at unequal rates in comparison to its whole, while isometric growth is when all parts of an organism grow at the same rate in comparison to the entire organism. The specific purpose of the lab is to determine whether or not specific human body parts experience allometric or isometric growth by comparing the ratios of height to two specific body parts, in the students’ case the right hand length and head circumference, in students and newborns. The students formulated the tentative answer that if a team of four compared their height to right hand length ratio, as well as, their height to head circumference ratio, to those of a newborn’s, then the students will discover that the right hand and head experience allometric growth in humans.
