Sfsu Biology: Fertilizing Eggs

The solutions are 0% sucrose, 10% sucrose, 20% sucrose, 30% sucrose, 40% sucrose and an unknown sucrose concentration. We then weighed each egg separately to the nearest gram in order to have an initial starting weight to compare to the results throughout our experiment being conducted. The eggs were then placed in each beaker for 12 intervals at a time. After every 12 minutes the eggs were taken out and weighed to see if the weight of the egg changed. With a total of five intervals (12, 24, 36, 48, 60) the steps were repeated till the egg had reached the total time of 60 minutes. The changes in weight of the eggs were then added into a data table showing the weight of the chicken eggs in grams vs. the time in minutes. In a second data table the weight changes (g) vs. time (min.) between the eggs were taken and used the difference from each time and subtracted it from the initial

The egg shell completely disappears due to the vinegar reacting with the egg; bubbles form on the surface of the vinegar and on the egg because carbon dioxide was produced from

The primary purpose of the lab was to test and observe the effects of the process of osmosis on decalcified eggs. Before the process, the initial weights of the eggs were taken and noted. Two eggs were then immersed in a deionized water solution. The same was repeated to the other two solutions of 20% and 40% sucrose. The weights of the eggs were measured after 15 minutes to note the change in mass due to osmosis and again after 60 minutes to take the final measurement. Overall, while some human error might arise in the weighing process, care was taken in handling the eggs and during the weighing process. As such, it was found that the eggs behaved as predicted. It was found that the eggs placed in the hypertonic solution lost

What will happen to the egg when a student tests osmosis with 3 different soultions in a cup.The student is trying to see or find the effects of osmosis on an egg.Osmosis is the movement of water molecules through a selecfively permeable membrane. Diffuision is when something spreads more widely and equilibrium means when somethings is at rest due to equal opposite forces. The student wants to find out if the egg will shrink, fill up, or change in any way.

For this project, I made a capsule for an egg that is to be dropped from about twenty feet. This capsule that I made was not what I was thinking at first but when I started to build it, I saw that this capsule would hold better than the one that I was thinking which was a triangular capsule with the egg in the middle but I saw later one that the egg would break if it hit one of the flat sides. The capsule is a cube that is made out of the tongue depressors and I used most of the yarn for the big cage and I used the Elmer’s glue to glue the tongue depressors together. I used pieces of the paper clips to hold the popsicle sticks together with the tongue depressors and some

In society reproduction is one of the most important things that keeps our world's population growing. In these three short dystopian stories there are different approaches on ideas on what reproduction should be like and how it should be approached. Reproduction rights have an immensely big impact on each of these stories in different circumstances but are very much alike. These three different stories have different rules for the way they run their reproduction systems in their communities. Ten with a Flag the way the society has to do with reproduction is by a ranking system. In this case the people in the story find out how great their child is by ranking, so if the child is a ten it's perfect and if the baby has a perfect ten with a flag, the flag means that the baby might have something troubled or wrong about its persona. Amaryllis is about keeping society to a minimum. Auspicious Eggs is about the Catholic Church and its involvement the reproductive system. All of these stories have harsh endings if an individual can't do something to meet society's specifications about reproduction rules.

numbers fit all of the rules that applied. I remembered that it could perfectly go into a group of

In insect species with indirect sperm transfer, sperm is packed in a spermatophore that is either externally attached to the female 's genital opening or introduced into her bursa copulatrix. Sperm transfer is not immediate in these species, and consequently mate guarding has been suggested to function as a mechanism of guarding sperm until it is released from the spermatophore into the female (i.e. spermatophore guarding). Spermatophore guarding is relatively common in insect species with external spermatophores (e.g. Orthoptera; Alcock 1994; Simmons 2001), but supposedly absent in species with internal spermatophores and rapid sperm release (Simmons 2001). This study focuses on two hypothesis associated with mate guarding a tactic of many species that adjust their reproductive behaviour according to the apparent risk of sperm competition. The phenomenon of mate guard to consider sperm competition levels and evolution of internal spermatophore guard is wide spread in insects and other animals. We analyse two hypothesis one the rival exclusion followed by the next spermatophore renewal hypothesis. Results showed that as rival was introduced to the arena of mating of the distinctive original male (guard) in many cases showed a strong aggressive behaviour regardless of whether successively avert the rival. In the second hypothesis certainly majority of the incidents showed an attempt of

During that time the male will go out and seek a female usually in her burrow and that is when the life cycle

Each category of the book is filled with questions that range from why some organisms find copulation boring in their relationships to simple anatomical questions. Dr. Tatiana answers each of the proposed questions with comparisons to other organisms that experience the same situations. By doing this, she further provides readers with information on multiple organisms.

The egg baby activity was an activity I particularly enjoyed doing in my college career. I am actually familiar with the care taking process for my egg, since I was assigned this type of project before while I was in high school; the only difference was that I had a partner for this experience. So to explain the process for caring for my baby was fairly simple, my partner, Lily, had a schedule that was the opposite of mine and we would switch off caring for the baby evenly. She had the baby one day and I would have him the next. Having to switch off between days primarily reminded me of how actual couples would have to raise children due to custody cases, in which some are not as lenient as switching off between parents like it was for this project. So the challenging part of this activity

In some species of fish, such as the three – spined sticktle back, the male, not the female, performs the task of caring the young

An egg has a semi-permeable membrane, thus processes like osmosis could occur. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from an area of higher water concentration to an area of a lower water concentration. Osmosis is important, especially for living organisms, as they help distribute nutrients in the body. An egg’s mass would change when it is soaked in different substances. The goal of this experiment was to investigate how an egg changes through osmosis. This experiment was done to show how substances affect the mass of an egg. To start off, an egg’s mass was measured by putting the egg in a beaker then placing it on a mass scale. The beaker was then filled with vinegar and left alone for twenty-four hours. After a day, the egg was taken

Cells in all living things have an outer layer known as the cell membrane. The structure of the cell membrane consists of the phospholipid bilayer organized by the arrangement of hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails. It is a selectively permeable membrane, where it divides the outer environment from the interior of the cell. It can control substances moving in and out of living cells. Certain molecules like gases, water, and food are permitted to pass the membrane through the method of diffusion. Diffusion refers to the process in which molecules move on the concentration gradient, where they move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. A type of diffusion is known as osmosis. It is the diffusion of water moving across the selectively permeable membrane. In this lab, students will be using eggs to construct an experiment to get a better study on how osmosis works in a cell. The eggs will be soaked in vinegar solution to remove their shells to expose each inner layer that resembles a selectively permeable membrane. The egg shell is composed of calcium carbonate that would dissolves in acidic solution such as vinegar. In the chemical reaction, it releases carbon dioxide gas. After the removal of the egg shell, it will be ready to be able to construct the experiment.
