Lab midterm exam

QuestionAnswer
basic metric unit of length meter (M)
basic metric unit of volume liter (L)
basic metric unit of mass gram (g)
metric conversion staircase order kilo (K), hecto (H), deca (dam), m/L/g, deci (d), centi (c), milli, ____, _____, micron (u),____, _____, nano (n)
estimation of the distance an object extends between the smallest marks on the device interpolation
density of H2O 1 g/mL or cm3
if object density is greater than water it will.. sink
if water density greater than object it will.. float
Bergmann's Rule larger animals have smaller SA:Volume ratios and therefore are easier to keep warm in cold climates
formula for surface area of block 2 (l x w) + 2 (l x h) + 2 (w x h)
formula for volume of block l x w x h
formula for density density = mass/volume
formula to find SA:Volume ratio surface area (cm2)/volume (cm3)
functional group -OH hydroxyl
5 elements represented in molecular model kits Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus
atomic # of carbon, # of electrons needed to fill valence shell atomic # - 6, 2 electrons
atomic # of Hydrogen, # of electrons needed to fill valence shell atomic # - 1, 1 electron
atomic # of Nitrogen, # of electrons needed to fill valence shell atomic # - 7, 2 electrons
atomic # of Oxygen, # of electrons needed to fill valence shell atomic # - 8, 2 electrons
atomic # of Phosphorus, # of electrons needed to fill valence shell atomic # - 15, 3 electrons
function of buffers help maintain homeostasis by maintaining normal pH levels
how do buffers work by releasing H ions when a base is added and absorbing H ions when acid is added
formula to prepare a dilution from a stock solution C1V1=C2V2
C1V1=C2V2 C1 = concentration (%) of stock solution, V1=volume (mL) or stock req'd to prepare solution (typically solving for this), C2=concentration (%) of dilution to prepare, V2=volume (mL) of dilution to prepare
Benedict's reagent light blue, tests for reducing sugars (turns yellow green/orange/red)
IKI (Iodine-Potassium Iodide) reagent amber colored, tests for starch (turns dark purple/black)
Biuret reagent pale blue, contains copper sulfate (CuSO4), tests for proteins (turns purplish violet color)
Sudan IV tests for lipids, produces orange spot when lipid added
4x objective scanning
10x objective low power
40x objective high power
M1 x DFV1 = M2 x DFV 2 M1 and DFV = magnification and diameter of field of view of first object, M2 and DFV2 = mag and diam. of 2nd object
formula for total magnification total magnification = ocular x objective magnification
osmosis transport of water from high -> low concentration
simple diffusion membrane transport proteins not required
facilitated diffusion membrane transport proteins required
percent mass change formula final bag mass - initial bag mass / initial bag mass x 100

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
