Measurements

What i am trying to figure out in this experiment is what are the measurements of multiple objects in different conditions. I first asked myself “What kind of measurements and what kind of things will i be doing?”

First i needed a wooden block, water, graduated cylinder, and a rock. The experiment was put in many sequences.

Table A-Comparing Metric & Customary Units-
Length of block (cm)- 2.75cm
Length of block (in)- 1 3/32in
Ratio (cm/in)- 2.54
Ratio (in/cm)- 0.393

Table B-Volume of a Regulary Shaped Object-
Length (cm)- 2.75cm
Width (cm)- 2.75cm
Height (cm)- 2.85cm
Calculated Volume (cm3)- 21.6cm3

Table C-Mass of a Liquid-
Mass of the Gradulated Cylinder (only air) (g)- 16.2g
Combined Mass of Gradulated Cylinder & Water

    The homogenates provided were made by homogenizing tissues in a sucrose phosphate buffer in a 1:20 ratio. The protein concentration in bovine cells was measured by diluting the homogenate with a 1:5 ratio; 50 microliters of homogenate and 200 microliters of water. Then 5 known protein concentration samples which were 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 1.6, 2.0 mg/ml of bovine serum were used to determine absorbance with a spectrophotometer. Two additional samples were made; one was blank and the other was for the specific homogenate sample. Then 3 microliters of bradford assay reagent, which indicates the amount of protein present by color, was added to all samples. The spectrophotometer was zeroed at 595 nm. A standard curve was made with the different absorbencies and concentrations. After the linear equation was formed, the unknown sample concentration was determined using the standard curve equation. A Gel Electrophoresis was used to perform a qualitative analysis. The use of 5 microliters of the homogenate was heated to 80 degrees Celsius. Then the homogenate was transferred to a 2-microliter-protein gel sample buffer. Samples loaded on to the gel was run at 100 v and stained with comassie blue; observations were made next lab.

    Observations: The color changing process took longer than we had expected. We observed that after putting the penny in the beaker, the zinc powder surround the penny, which helped it changed its color. We couldn’t complete the experiment so when we took the penny from the beaker, the change in the color wasn’t completed. There were some dark spots and some light parts.…

    During this laboratory exercise will identify by the graph given which is isotonic, hypotonic, or hypertonic. The kidneys are a pair of fist-sized organs located outside the peritoneal cavity on each side of the spine. The kidney is a highly specialized organ that maintains the internal environment of the body by selectively excreting or retaining various substances according to specific body needs. The process of urine formation and adjustment of blood composition involves three processes: glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption, and tubular secretion. The first part of the process of urine formation occurs in the glomeruli which act as filters, allowing water, glucose, salt and waste materials to pass through to the Bowman’s capsule but preventing and red blood cells and plasma proteins to pass through. Reabsorption occurs in the proximal tubules of the nephron. Water, glucose, amino acids, sodium and other nutrients are reabsorbed into the bloodstream in the capillaries surrounding the tubules. Water moves via the process of osmosis: movement of water from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentration. Tubular secretion is the final step in the process of urine formation which transfers materials from peritubular capillaries to renal tubular lumen and occurs mainly by active transport. ADH is secreted by the posterior pituitary (neurohypophysis) when there is a decrease in water concentration (increase in osmolarity) which will cause an increase in water reabsorption (decrease in osmolarity). ADH most important function is to conserve the fluid volume of your body by reducing the amount of water passed out in the urine. When there is a decrease in serum sodium levels (decrease in osmolarity) the ACTH causes the adrenal cortex to release aldosterone, thereby increasing sodium reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubules of the kidney (increasing osmolarity). Aldosterone also acts on the kidney to reabsorb sodium and water…

    INTRODUCTION There are many reasons for knowing the identity of microorganisms. The reasons range from the knowing the causative agent of a disease to knowing the correct microorganism in order to make antibiotics. This study was done by applying the following methods; OF Glucose, Indole Production, and Malonate Utilization test for the identification of an unknown bacterium. The methods will assist in determining the unknown bacterium found in a 55 year old male that was passing blood and mucous in his stool. The patient had no pain but mild discomfort during bowel movements. The doctor noted inflammation of the lining of the rectum. The doctor removed a tissue sample for examination and referred the patient to a gastroenterologist for a barium xray and colonoscopy. While utilizing the methods stated above, the bacterium found was a facultative anaerobe due to the Gram Negative Rods, fermentation, and the production of indole. The specific Gram Negative Enteric Bacilli was Shigella dysenteriae. There are many reasons for knowing how to control bacterial growth as well as such as antimicrobial drugs, which assist the body’s defenses against pathogens. Microorganisms are capable of causing infection or spoilage. Controlling bacterial growth is important in poultry farm businesses that use equipment to decontaminate processing plant fluids before disposal. During quality control and safety evaluations, bacteria growth that needs to be controlled can be found. While controlling bacterial growth, clusters of Gram Positive Cocci were found. It was found some ways to control bacterial growth were disinfection, sterilization, antisepsis, sanitization, moist and dry heat, filtration, and radiation; just to name a few. The specific method used for control depends on various circumstances.…
