    differential centrifugation, precipitation, and a simplified chromatography procedure, followed by an enzyme activity assay using the enzyme’s natural substrate, Luciferin, to confirm the presence of Luc. Luciferase is a 61 kD enzyme naturally found in the tails of fireflies, a member of the Lampyridae family. Luc acts as a catalyst in an oxidation-reduction reaction with Luciferin, which allows these insects to exhibit bioluminescence for mating and communication (“Firefly Luciferase,” n.d.). In this reaction

    The understanding that by adding designed shape or interaction anisotropy to nanoparticles will further increase possible packing schemes to the motifs in their self-assembly process. Therefore, the understanding of how individual anisotropy scale up to build complex structures are of desperate desire for designing creative particles to be transformed into materials with desired properties. Precisely defined giant molecules are providing a substantial enrichment of the library of nanoparticles with

    How Placebo and Reachability Bias Effect Cognition Jennifer D. Byrd Wake Technical Community College Abstract The purpose of this paper is to identify and compare how placebo’s and reachable bias effect our cognition as a whole. Two journal articles found on the (internet) have been chosen. One being Draganich and Erdal’s (2014) experiment telling the participants how many hours they spent in REM sleep and then testing their cognition. The second one by Bar-Hillel, Peer, and Acquisti

    one of them possessing two heads. The results observed for Wormy fully supported the hypothesis, and the three new planarians had a head, midsection, and tail. However, Wormy 2.0’s hypothesis was not supported by the results at all. For one, the hypothesis and results for the tail part were incomparable due to the fact it was missing, and the prediction for the body, or middle part was quite absurd. Through further research, it is possible to have a planarian with two heads, but a longitudinal cut would

    the pattern of coin flip would land Head-Tail-Tail compared to the other pattern of Head-Tail-Head. The three options were: "A" the number of coin tosses for the pattern HTH will be greater compared to HTT. "B" both patters would take on average the same time to repeat themselves. "C" the number of coin tosses for the pattern HTT will be greater compared to HTT. I chose option "B" as my answer because every coin flip is a 50/50 chance of getting either head or tail so on average both patters should

    an 116 kDa cytoskeletal protein linked to cell-matrix and cell-cell junctions. It is said to work as one of a few interconnecting proteins required to secure the F-actin to the membrane. Vinculin has a helical head and tail domains attached by a flexible proline-rich linker.3 The head and tail domain mingle in an autoinhibitory manner, blocking binding to a significant number of prospective ligands.4 In addition to vinculin, there is metavinculin (MV), which is a splice variant of vinculin. MV is a

    In our Penny Lab, we wanted to extend what we were told to do with experimental design. We’re doing this because we wanted to prove what he thought our hypothesis had been, and a hypothesis can not be true unless it can be tested. We investigated what variables made the Penny Lab easier, or harder. As a class we decided to investigate variables like, dropping the penny from the same height, and applying the same pressure to the penny for each drop. But first we had to know what variables were, and
