Umbilical Cord Upper Lip
1,360 words
Fetal development starts with the process of
fertilization. It starts when the female ovulates
producing an egg. This egg then travels into the
fallopian tube where it waits to be fertilized.
Once sperm enter the body they must travel up the
uterus until they make their way up to the egg.
Once at the egg the sperm try to get in. They
sperm wiggle their tails until they make it in.
Once it makes it in the egg will not any other
sperm in. The sperm that made it then drops its
tail. After about twe...

Determining Rates of Photosynthesis Through
Chloroplasts 2) Purpose = measure the rate of
photosynthesis in chloroplasts. 3) The chloroplast
will be subjected to two experimental conditions-
light, and the absence of light, using a
spectrophotometer to determine the amount of DPIP
reduced at specific time intervals under each
condition. 4) I predict the amount of DPIP reduced
will vary for each condition and increase over the
time intervals. I hypothesize under the light
condition the amount of ...

Digestive System, series of organs put together
that purpose is to break down, or digest, the food
we eat. Food is made up of large things called,
complex molecules, which the digestive system
breaks down into smaller things called simple
molecules that get absorbed into the bloodstream.
The bloodstream is our blood. The simple molecules
travel through the bloodstream to all of the parts
of the body, which we use for growth, repair, and
energy. All living things that eat to get energy

Biology Lab Report Genetic Exchange In Prokaryotes
679 words
This lab deals with the process of genetic
exchange in prokaryotes. There are three main
mechanisms of genetic exchange which include
transformation, transduction, and conjugation. In
transformation, DNA is released from cells in the
surrounding environment which is then incorporated
into the recipient cells DNA. In transduction, DNA
is transferred through a virus to the recipient.
In conjugation, genetic exchange occurs through
direct contact with another cell and the plasmid
is transferred fro...

Unborn Baby Legal Abortion
1,007 words
Abortion means expulsion of a fetus from the womb
before it is able to survive. It is generally
illegal. It is an issue that evokes, on all sides,
very strong feelings and judgments and very heated
recriminations. The most radical formulation of
the anti-abortion or "pro-life" side of the debate
views abortion as the murder of unborn children,
and so as the equivalent of out and out
infanticide, making the legal use of abortion.
Legal abortion is an abortion that allowed by the
law. Some country...

Computers are a part of our everyday lives, but
about two decades ago, computers were just
beginning to enter homes. Many people dont realize
what the computer evolved from, and the speed at
which computer technology has taken to arrive to
what it is today. The earliest know computer is
the abacus, invented by the Chinese in 2600 B. C.
Not many people consider this to be a computer,
but by definition, it is. One of the more recent
early computers was built by Herman Hollerith, who
invented a mac...

Begin To Develop Pituitary Gland
1,294 words
November 16, 1995 Hundreds of thousands of times a
year a single-celled zygote, smaller than a grain
of sand, transforms into an amazingly complex
network of cells, a newborn infant. Through
cellular differentiation and growth, this process
is completed with precision time and time again,
but very rarely a mistake in the 'blueprint' of
growth and development does occur. Following is a
description of how the pathways of this intricate
web are followed and the mistakes which happen
when they are n...

Investigation On The Enzyme Trypsin
2,197 words
An Investigation determining a factor affecting
the rate of digestion of gelatin by the protease
trypsin. Introduction An enzyme is a biological
catalyst, which speeds up reactions. An example of
this in the human body is trypsin (a protease
produced in the pancreas and used in the stomach),
which catalyses the digestion of gelatine, a
protein. For this investigation, a photographic
film will be the source of the gelatine. I will be
able to identify when the gelatine is digested,
when the photog...

in 1974, when it was decided that Atanasoff had
been the true developer of the ideas required to

Aim: Exretory System Excretory System Aim: To
examine and understand the structure, function and
differences between different types of excretory
systems. The difference between excretion and
egestion is that whereas excretion is the process
of removing toxic waste by-products of the body s
metabolism, egestion is the removal of
indigestible remains / substances through the
alimentary canal. Through egestion, substances
that were not able to be used in the body are
removed, and through excretion...

The Properties of Light Applied to Fibre Optics
One of the basic properties of light is that it
travels in straight lines and can have it? s
direction changed. This is the property which is
applied to achieve the purpose of Fibre Optics
which is to carry light from one place to another.
The way this is done can be explained by the
principle of refraction. This is the principle
which governs the behaviour of light as it passes
from one transparent substance to another. It
states; if a ray of ligh...

The density of air In this experiment we are to
measure the density of air. It is a quite simple
experiment, you learn how important it is to
measure exact and be aware of the sources of error
when measuring such small quantities. The whole
idea is that you know the mass of a certain volume
of air, and then measure the volume. A digital
scale that shows two decimals measures the first
variable. We simply took a plastic bottle, weighed
it when the lid was open, then with the help of a
compressor,...

ampicillin resistant DNA is introduced into the E.
coli bacteria, through the uptake of this DNA the
bacteria will receive the resistant gene that will
permit the bacteria to grow freely in the presence
of ampicillin. Experimental Design: By observing
the E. coli bacteria one can study how it reacts
when a foreign gene such as the ampicillin
