Biology 4th period 9/9/2011

Complete the write for big mouth lab into notebook!  include a graph of people vs.  mouth volume ( Bar graph) in analysis and write a conclusion paragraph.

Purpose:  You are to figure out who has the biggest mouth in class.

Question :Who has the larger oral cavity?

Hypothesis:  (You give)

Test: We will fill the mouths of volunteers with water to get an approximate volume of their oral cavity.  We will do this multiple times and take an average so that we can compare class data.  We will also measure the height of all participants, in meters.

Materials/table
·       2 cups *Note NO LIQUID, CONTAMINATED WITH SALIVA, MAY GO INTO THE GRADUATED CYLINDERS!
·       100 ml Graduated cylinder
·       Pen or pencil
·       marker
·       Water
·       Waste water disposal-1000 ml plastic beaker
·       Paper towels
·       Pipette (eye dropper)
·       Meter stick and metric ruler
·       Amphil disinfectant
·       Why is nick the new equivalent to god?

Procudeures with Diagrams: (You give)

Biology HW

Math review questions from ppt:


1.256 μL → ?mL
2.2007 hm → ?dm
3..00096 g → ?mg
Answer using scientific notation
4.15,002,000  =
5.98,005,000,000,000,000 =
6..00000000920 =
7.How many hours will you spend in this class during the school year? (1 school year = 181 days)
8.A leaf sample on the balance reads 1.05 g how much does it weigh? 
  Fw = m • ag
  Ha! A balance measures mass not weight!  If you insist on using the term weight use the above formula; where Fw = weight (in Newtons), m = mass in kg and ag = 9.8m/s/s (acceleration of gravity on Earth)
Remember, every test will include dimensional analysis problems and I require you to show the math work for full credit.  This will be crucial preparation for those of you taking physics or chemistry Jr & Sr year.
