=Cell Size Lab= == Area formula: Length x Width x number of sides 3 x 3 x 6 = 54 2 x 2 x 6 = 24 1 x 1 x 6 = 6 Volume formula: Length x Width x Height 3 x 3 x 3 = 27 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 1 x 1 x 1 = 1 Surface Area to Volume formula: SA/V 54/27 = 2 24/8 = 3 6/1 = 6 Surface area to volume: area divided by volume Diffusion distance: measure the distance that the solution penetrates the cube (5 millimeters) Rate of diffusion: diffusion distance divided by the ten minutes

__**Hydra**__

- They are related to jellyfish, sea anemones and corals http://animal.discovery.com/marine-life/hydra-info.htm - The body of the Hydra is a simple threadlike tube structure. One end is closed and the other is open (mouth) surrounded by five to eight tentacles. http://animal.discovery.com/marine-life/hydra-info.htm - A Hydra has two cell walls with a like substance in between. Also, they have many stingers. http://animal.discovery.com/marine-life/hydra-info.htm

__**Elodea**__

- Elodea can grow to be 3/5 in long and 1/5 in wide - [] -Elodea is found in every region of North America except for Florida were it is very rare [] -Elodea can grow in waters that are 8 to 10 feet deep []


 * Elodea In Salt Water**
 * -** The vacuole in the cells will shrink because it is in salt which is a hypertonic solution.

5. A flagellum is a thin, threadlike structure that is whipped back and forth to allow protozoa, bacteria, spermatozoa, etc., to swim. Cilia are divided into two groups; motile and non-motile. Motile pabuffalo move in a wave-like motion, and are used in the lungs to keep airways clean. Non-motile cilia do not move, and their main action is to act as a sensory antenna for a cell

=Biomolecules in Foods Lab=

1. 2. When we looked at all of our date closely we were very surprised by one thing. When we looked at the really ripe banana, it did not contain protein. We were surprised because usually everybody says that bananas are a good source of proteins, so we expected to see proteins in the banana. We came up with one reason of why it might not have protein. That reason is because of the ripeness of the banana. Since it was really ripe, it did not contain proteins in it yet. 3. We found differences in the foods we tested and the foods others tested. Some possible reasons why we found differences, even with the same food, include conditions they were tested in. Along with this, the amount of the tested food could also contribute to differences in results.

__**Cold**__ In this picture, it is showing the reaction when cold hydrogen peroxide was added to the foods. As you can see, only two of the 4 foods had a reaction. Both beef and liver reacted to the hydrogen peroxide. Josh Godo __**Room Temperature**__ At room temperature, the peas and corn did not react much. The liver reacted greatly, and the beef reacted moderately. Tyler Giroskey __**Hot**__ In this picture, hot hydrogen peroxide is added to the first row on the left. The hot hydrogen peroxide makes a slightly smaller reaction in the beef than with the cold, and a larger reaction in the liver than in the cold. Tyler Giroskey

= Water inquiry lab =

Regular water

Trial 1- 42 drops on heads

Trial 2-35 drops on heads

Trial 3- 29 drops on heads

Trial 4- 18 drops on heads Average- 31 drops

Soapy water

First try-13 drops on heads

Second-15 drops on heads

Third-10 drops on heads

Fourth-19 drops on heads Average-14.25 drops

In order to get maximal ATP you need 200 Light Intensity and 425 Wavelength.

=Primary and Secondary Productivity= When you look at the image, you notice that when there is a lot of land and water, the productivity in that area goes up. A question we had was: What is assimilation?

=Cheek Cell Lab=


 * 1) What are the 5 elements that make up DNA? The 5 elements that make up DNA are oxygen,carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and phosphors.
 * 2) What is the function of DNA from day to day? DNA controls the daily functions of your cells.
 * 3) Describe how long strands of double-helical DNA fit into the nucleus of a single cheek cell. The DNA that goes into cheek cells gets folded and that allows it to fit into cheek cells
 * 4) What was the purpose of using the detergent as a cell lysis solution? To allow the DNA to expand
 * 5) Why does the DNA become visible once the alcohol is added? Once the alcohol is added; It doesn't mix well in water
 * 6) If DNA is so thin, how is it that we are able to see it during this simple lab exercise? We're able to see the DNA because all of it that was extracted from the saliva bundles up, making it visible.
 * 7) Why is DNA referred to as your genetic fingerprint? DNA is referred to as your genetic fingerprint because nobody has the same DNA makeup. Everyone is different when it comes to DNA.
 * 8) Give some examples of how DNA is used everyday. One example of how DNA is used every day is when a crime happens, they try and get a DNA sample to show that a certain person id the crime.
