Tn 4351 was originally isolated from bacteroides fragilis [30] . The transposon was successfully introduced into Cytophaga succinicans, Flavobacterium meningosepticum, Flexibacter canadiansis, Flexibacter strain SFI and Sporocytophaga myxococcoides by conjugation [25]. Tn 4351carries two antibiotic resistance gene. One of the codes for resistance to erythromycin and clindamycin which is expressed in bactroides but not in E.Coli. The other gene codes for resistance in tetracycline and is expressed in aerobically grpwn E. coli, but not in anaerobically grpwn E. coli or in bacteroides.
Beanium Isotope Lab Introduction: Isotopes are explained as the variations of the number of neutrons that an element may have. Some isotopes are more common than others. This experiment was performed to help visualize the different isotopes of an element and show how some isotopes will appear more often than others. Purpose: To visualize and understand isotopes Materials: Refer to Lab Sheet “Isotope Experiment- Beanium”
Introduction For two days, on the 14th and 15th of April, a field excursion to Hastings Point, New South Wales was conducted. At Hastings Point, topography, abiotic factors and organism distribution were measured and recorded, with the aim of drawing links between the abiotic factors of two ecosystems (rocky shore and sand dunes), the organisms which live in them, and the adaptations they have developed to cope with these conditions. Within these two ecosystems, multiple zones were identified and recorded, and this report also aims to identify the factors and organisms associated with each zone. Lastly, using data and observations from the past, predictions for the future of the rock pool ecosystem were made.
Introduction The bean beetle also known as the Callosobruchus maculatus, is an agricultural pest insect from Africa and Asia. That can be found throughout the tropical and subtropical regions. The lifecycle of a bean beetles is quite short an adult been beetle lays their eggs on the external surface of a bean. The larva hatches from the egg burrows from the egg through the seed coat and into the bean endosperm without moving outside the protection of the egg.
Introduction- We did an experiment about different types of movements called kinesis and taxis. Kinesis is the change in the speed of movement or the rate of turning which is intensified by a stimulus (Meyer, 2006). Taxis is movement towards or away from a stimulus (Meyer, 2006). We did our experiment using Sowbugs.
The Jumping Bean Beetles! The Jumping bean beetles experiment was done to study the oviposition in bean beetles, and whether it is based on the heritage of the bean beetle. The study consisted of two different types of beans and several mung raised bean beetles.
Unknown Lab Report Unknown # 25 By: Jenna Riordan March 19, 2018 Bio 2843 1. Introduction Microbiology is the study of microorganisms found in all different environments throughout Earth, from the hot thermal vents at the bottom of the ocean to the ice at the top of a mountain.
In the BIO 14 Lab, we to designed a competition experiment that would tell us something about the relative fitness of the E939 and E938 strains of E. Coli and that looked into answering whether it was better to have a low or high mutation rate and under what conditions. In our experiment, we looked into what concentration can the E938 strain coexist with the E939 strain in an equal number of colonies. We plated various concentration of the strains (Figure 1) and predicted that the disparity between the growth of each strain will be greater as the concentration of the high mutator increases. Our results did not support this hypothesis, instead it showed that the E938 dominated competition at all concentrations that could be analyzed (Plates D, E & G). It could have been that we needed to dilute E938 even further than 103 cell/mL to see equal competition, but with the given results only the conclusion that can be made is that the high mutator will outcompete
The objective of this experiment was to determine the identity of three unknowns existing in a 1:1:1 mixture. An extraction technique was therefore used to identify the unknown acid, base, and neutral as the compounds must first be separated. Extraction is a method of separation that is based on the difference in solubility of each compound in a mixture. There are a couple of necessary requirements for an extraction to be completed with experimental success. In this extraction there were two liquid solvents used, an original solvent (So), and an extraction solvent (Sx).
Unknown Lab Report Mikee Lianne Gonzales Biol 351- 1005 Holly Martin Unknown: # 76 Abstract This report is about identifying the respective genus of the given unknown organism. The goal is to show and prove the student’s understanding of microbiology and laboratory learned experimental techniques.
Atoms are the basic building blocks of all matter(Doc.3). These small particles have a nucleus and a certain number of protons ,neutrons ,and electrons(O.I). The number of protons is independent to the element, and can be used to find it on the periodic table(Doc.2). Protons are positively charged particles(Doc.3).
The system was run with the power filter, then the fish were introduced to the system. The plants were then installed after two days. The BioMax insert was removed because the plant would replace it. The plant was held up by a sponge insert sitting on top of the activated carbon. The fish were fed and the plants were observed daily.
Plutonium is in the transitional metals section of the periodic table. Plutonium has the atomic number 94 and a molar mass of 244, which implies that it has 94 protons, 94 electrons, and 150 neutrons ("It 's Elemental."). You can tell how many protons and electrons there are by the atomic number of the element since it is the same number. A person can also tell how many
Particles are labeled in many ways. One way particles are referred to be as atoms (elements). They’re identified by their properties, number or protons and neutrons and atomic number. Another way particles are referred are as molecules (covalently bonded- nonmetal to nonmetal). For example, water is a molecule because it’s composed of nonmetals.
