Introduction: The objective of this lab was to study the trait of aldehyde oxidase (AO) in fruit flies. Aldehyde oxidase is responsible for catalyzing the oxidation of many aldehydes. The aldox gene controls the amount of AO activity in Drosophila melanogaster. In the first part of the lab, an enzyme spot test will be performed on two different vials of Drosophila to exhibit the AO activity of both vial 1A and 1B. A positive test for AO test will present a blue color, while a negative test will present no reaction.

Although it is not really known around the world, many countries/states have put restrictions on the use of this drug due to its potential of being abused.

As a result, plants have adapted ways to protect themselves against their natural predators by implementing “defense mechanisms”. Such adaptations may be structural or chemical, where structural mechanisms are simply parts of plant structural arrangement, such as thorns. Chemical defense mechanisms are more complex, and involve production of retarding chemical compounds and toxins. These volatile compounds are often released when the plant is damaged, and have physical effects on the predator.
Meosha Robinson ISBL 10/22/2015 Monarch Butterfly Decline The monarch butterfly, scientifically referred to as danaus plexippus, is an extremely popular insect among North America. This insect is highly popular, not because it is beneficial to human existence but because it has the most distinctive migration pattern on top of its physical attributes that catch the human eye. The monarch butterfly has been recorded to travel over 2000 miles in order to get to their summer breeding ground (Oberhauser, 2004).
Orchids give off a human body odor to attract mosquitoes and plants that cannot stay alive through photosynthesis live off other plants. They find ways to avoid incest through complex internal warning systems and desert plants have been known to gamble as humans do, even when it means they take on greater risk in the process. (Pennisi) Jahren states that the cholla cactus had an ‘idea’ to grow a spine, (Jahren 64) the process of evolution took millions of years in that case. They exhibit patience and foresight to make up for their rootedness. The fact that plants remain rooted to the ground causes the misconception that there is nothing going on within them.

Anne McClintock wrote her essay “Gonad the Barbarian and the Venus Flytrap: Portraying the female and male orgasm” to examine pornography and how it has changed throughout history and its effects on how women perform as sexual beings. McClintock focuses on the various roles of pornography such as its emphasis on voyeurism, pleasure, and the male ego. She wants her readers to know that women are still not represented in pornography to satisfy their own desires, but they are there to cater to men and their subconscious. I will analyze how McClintock argues that due to the history of sexism towards women, the roles that men and women have in pornography are inherently different because of the societal belief that women are only seen as objects of sexual desire and are solely there to satisfy the male audience.

A Demonstration of Chemotaxis Between Flies and Various Substances (Sugar vs Bacteria) Abstract: The purpose of this lab based on the Drosophila melanogaster (the common fruit fly) reactions. Since the fly has been studied and observed for many years, and known for its unique chemotactic attractions to different stimuli, it was an ideal organism for the study being conducted. In the experiment the purpose was to be able to figure out whether the flies would be more attracted to sugar or bacteria.
My favourite constellation is Vulpecula, or “The Fox.” This is because foxes are my favourite animal, and I even used to have a pet fox named Sonny. They are often thought of as sly tricksters, but they also are attributed with being able to think fast and figure out solutions to even the toughest of situations. Vulpecula is a rather faint constellation that lies in the northern sky. Vulpecula has no creation story associated with it, but it is said to be a fox carrying a goose to Cerberus.
