You hypothesize that a protein is localized to the mitochondria in a cell. A. Design a microscopy experiment to test this hypothesis. Please include the labels and types of microscopy you would use. B. How might you test this hypothesis without using a microscopy technique?
You hypothesize that your protein of interest moves from the mitochondria to lysosomes when a cell is exposed to the drug Fantasalin. A. Design a microscopy experiment to test this hypothesis. Please include the LABELS and type(s) of microscopy you would use. Also, please draw illustrations of what you predict your experiment to look like. B. Design an experiment to test this hypothesis using cell fractionation and SDS-PAGE. Please include what samples you would collect to run on the gel,...
Diffraction can be used to provide a quick test of the size of red blood cells. Blood is smeared onto a slide, and a laser shines through the slide. The size of the cells is very consistent, so the multiple diffraction patterns overlap and produce an overall pattern that is similar to what a single cell would produce. Ideally, the diameter of a red blood cell should be between 7.5 and 8.0 μm. If a 633 nm laser shines through...
1. A biological cell that is 50 μm in size is viewed using a microscope that has an objective of 2 cm focal length and an eyepiece of 5 cm focal length. If the distance between the lenses is 16.4 cm, what is the size of the image of the cell viewed through the microscope?

explain the purpose of the experiment where DNA from a maturing red blood cell and DNA from an oviduct cell were both treated with DNAse I enzyme prior to using PCR to assay for the presence of globin and albumin genes.
A Schematic Model of Red Blood Cell Production The following problem deals with the number of red blood cells (RBCs) circulating in the blood. Here we will present it as a discrete problem to be modeled by differ- ence equations, though a different approach is clearly possible. In the circulatory system, the red blood cells (RBCs) are constantly being de stroyed and replaced. Since these cells carry oxygen throughout the body, their num. ber must be maintained at some fixed...
The authors of a paper describe an experiment to evaluate the effect of using a cell phone on reaction time. Subjects were asked to perform a simulated driving task while talking on a cell phone. While performing this task, occasional red and green lights flashed on the computer screen. If a green light flashed, subjects were to continue driving, but if a red light flashed, subjects were to brake as quickly as possible. The reaction time (in msec) was recorded....
For this experiment, you will design part of the procedure yourself. While the instructions for the titration are provided, volumes and masses are not. In your data section, copy over what you figure out here for the procedure (see formatting guidelines). Be sure to show your work for these calculations! 4. The vinegar samples that are provided in this experiment are close to 0.1 M in acetic acid. You will measure out samples with a volumetric pipet. a. What volume...
