...Brogan Walters Higher osmolarity in sweet potatoes than ordinary potatoes Biology 182 Lab, Thursday 11:00am Lab 5 Osmosis, Dialysis and Diffusion Laboratory 10/1/14 Introduction: Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane. (1) This process depends on the difference of concentrations of solutes on each side of the membrane. In this experiment the osmolarity of two types of potatoes were compared, the sweet potato and the ordinary potato. The sweet potato is more nutrient dense than a normal potato, in that it has more sugar, fiber and vitamins than a normal potato.(3) The hypothesis is the sweet potato will have a higher osmolarity than the ordinary potato because of its more nutrient dense nature. The ordinary potato will see an increase also but not to the magnitude of the sweet potato. Methods: Fifteen potato cores were prepared from both the sweet and ordinary potato and trimmed to be 1cm long. Each core was weighed using a balance and set aside for later in the experiment, keeping them organized. There were five different solutions; 25 mL were placed in each beaker. For each type of potato 15 beakers were used, three for each of the known solutions. When each beaker was ready, one of the weighed cores was placed into each of them. Time was recorded when submersion commenced. After 45 minutes, the cores were pulled out and patted dry to resemble the starting moistness. Each core was weighed for the final weight. The data was...

...! Prof. Laffont! ENC1101! Oct 9, 2014! ! Three Key Aspects in John Steinbeck’s Cannery Row Cannery Row was written by John Steinbeck in 1945. The story takes place in Monterey, California sometime between the Great Depression and World War II. The story is based on “his non-teleological acceptance of what ‘is,’ his ecological vision, and his own memories of a street and the people who made it home” (Shillinglaw vii). Steinbeck lived during the Great Depression and his experience affected the tone within the story. Steinbeck chose to write using third person narrative within the story which is an omniscient point of view- this allows the reader to know what the characters are thinking and feeling. The author wrote this story for the soldiers entertainment throughout battle. Steinbeck uses a unique style to construct this novel by periodically incorporating anecdotes and vignettes within the book, which allows the author to paint a overall picture in the reader’s mind of the reality of this time period. The major aspects within Cannery Row are loneliness, suicide and the development of characters. In the story Cannery Row, loneliness can be considered a major aspect of this book. Loneliness describes many of the characters in this narrative- especially the character Doc. Although Doc is much loved by his peers and has many friends, he is lonely. He spends most of his time listening to music on the phonograph. The text explains that “'He was a dark and lonesome looking man'...

...BIOEFFICACY EVALUATION OF ANTRACOL 70 WP AGAINST HELMINTHOSPORIUM LEAF SPOT OF SWEET CORN (ZEA MAYS L. var. RUGOSA) INTRODUCTION Corn is an important crop in the Philippines as another staple food of many Filipinos next to rice. Yellow corn or grain corn is the type of corn mainly produced in the country because of the growing demand as component for animal feeds. But aside from grain corn, sweet corn production is also a growing trend in the Philippines with the introduction of new supersweet corn varieties with higher sugar content and longer postharvest life. However, these varieties are also exposed to different fungal diseases causing significant yield losses. One of these is Helminthosporium leaf spot. Corn leaf spots or Helminthosporium leaf spots caused by Helminthosporium maydis Nishekado & Miyake are small, spindle-like or oblong, reddish-brown to brown spots on the leaves of corn. This disease causes significant yield losses when corn is not treated with protectant fungicides. Frequent rainy periods enhance disease development. Antracol 70 WP is an organic fungicide containing propineb, an active ingredient belonging to the dithiocarbamate group of compounds. It is a product of Bayer CropScience. It is a protectant foliar fungicide with long residual activity and it is used across the world as a protective treatment on several crops for the control of various fungi, especially Oomycetes, Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes and Fungi imperfecti.

...poem Orlando Innamorato, which is itself a continuation of the romantic epic saga Orlando Furioso, which is similar to that of Andromeda in that the heroine is offered as a sacrifice to the sea gods; and the damsel in distress theme. The damsel in distress theme was also used in The Perils of Pauline (1914) motion picture serial, which found Pearl White in mortal danger on a weekly basis. Depictions of bondage in art may be erotic, in which case they would tend to depict a young woman in danger and fear, and some are BDSM in style. Bizarre was a fetish and bondage magazine published between 1946-1959 by bondage artist John Willie. It included drawings and photographs using professional bondage models in bondage or sadomasochistic scenes. Sweet Gwendoline was the main female character in his works, published largely in the 1950s and 60's, and possibly the most famous bondage icon after Bettie Page. She was repeatedly depicted as the stereotypical naïve blonde damsel in distress. Bondage received a positive (if brief) treatment in The Joy of Sex, a mainstream sex manual popular in the 1970s. The publication of Madonna's book, Sex, which included photographs of bound nudes, did a great deal to improve public awareness of the acceptance of bondage. By the 1990s, references to bondage could be found in mainstream prime-time television series such as Buffy the Vampire...

...The Enga Culture Sheila Hummings Introduction to Cultural Anthropology Instructor Tristan Marble March 25, 2013 The Enga Culture is considered to be diverse in their community. Enga is one of the provinces located in Papua, New Guinea. The population of the Enga community range from 6000 to 9000 people. For years the Enga culture has been diversed in their beliefs, values , gender and kinship relationships. This culture primary source of survival is through horticulture. They use the sweet potato as the most important crop. Sweet potatoes make up more than 60 percent of all production. The fields where the potatoes are grown are made up of mounds. These mounds can be up to 9 feet in diameter. Most of the soil is soft, which makes it easy for planting. After they have completed gathering their harvest, they rebuild the mounds. They pull the mounds apart and mulch with old potatoes and leaves. Enga also grow bananas and yam swiddens. Swidden cultivation occurs when the land is cleared and cultivated for a temporary timeframe. They also are pig raisers. Enga’s do very little hunting or foraging. In this culture the women performed most of the labor. They did most of the planting, weeding and harvesting activities. The men’s responsibilities were to clear and burn the land in the swidden cultivation process. The men were better able to perform these duties because of their physical strength. The division of sexual labor came from foraging societies. The foragers practiced...

...A Marketing Plan for Lipton Ice Tea Institutional Affiliation Date Marketing Plan: Lipton Ice Tea Industry Analysis In 2005, the tea industry reached the $1.7 billion category and it is expected to continue growing indefinitely (Mintel 2005). Market analysts believe the tea industry will continue to boom and is not expected to reach saturation level in the near future. The favorable movement in the tea industry can be attributed to two major factors: a) consumers need for convenience and time-saving services; and b) the positive press given to tea. American lifestyle and work habits have made convenience a necessity. As employers demand for productivity from their employees, consumers are more pressed for time. In addition, the shaky economy has made Americans fear for their jobs; thus, any product that can fill the consumers' need for convenience and speed are almost automatically embraced into the American lifestyle (Mintel 2005). For the last decade, the health benefits of tea have gained wide coverage in the media. Studies continue to show the beneficial properties of teas, with health benefits ranging from lower cholesterol levels to improve arterial health and decreasing chance of cancer. This positive press has definitely catapulted the demand for tea (Mintel 2005). Both the need for convenience and positive press on tea have spurred an increase in sales of tea products, specifically ready-to-drink (RTD) teas sold in single-serve containers (Mintel 2005). Recognizing...

...test by M-G-M and went on to appear in the film Kiss Me Kate. This appearance, in a highly original dance number, led to Fosse's first job as a choreographer, the Jerome Robbins-directed Broadway hit The Pajama Game. Soon after, he met the talented dancer Gwen Verdon, and the two proceeded to collaborate on several hit shows, including Damn Yankees, New Girl in Town , and Redhead. He was also frequently sought out as the "doctor" on shows in trouble, especially How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and Little Me. Fosse's best collaboration with Verdon, Sweet Charity, demonstrated their perfect compatibility as a creative team and also flaunted his trademark style as a choreographer. Strongly influenced by choreographer Jack Cole, Fosse staged dance numbers that were highly stylized, using staccato movements and erotic suggestion. The "Steam Heat" number from The Pajama Game and "Hey Big Spender" from Sweet Charity were trademark Fosse numbers--jazzy, machinelike motion and cocky, angular, even grotesque poses. He favored style over substance (his patented knee slides and spread-finger hands), and minimalistic costuming (all black, accentuated by hats and gloves). A perfectionist, Fosse liked detail in his choreography and would position his dancers down to the angles of their feet or their little fingers. As his career progressed, Fosse became increasingly fascinated with expressing sexuality and decadence through dance. Fosse's peak year was 1973. In addition to his Cabaret Oscar...

...Chemistry of Life – Lab Report The purpose of this lab exercise is to perform chemical tests on a variety of foods to identify the presence of any major molecules essential to life. After acquiring the results we will analyze them and we will be able to describe the general chemical content of those foods. In order to determine which specific major molecules were present in certain foods we conducted four different tests. The iodine test tested for starch by putting a few drops of iodine on a food substance. If the food turned a blue-black color then it was positive for starch. The Benedict’s test tested for the presence of sugar. In order to test you put 1 ml of solution to be tested and add an equal volume of Benedict’s reagent in a test tube and heat in a water bath for two minutes. If the solution goes from blue, to green-yellow, then to a red-brown color it means it is positive for sugar. The next test is the Biuret test and its tests for peptide bonds in proteins. To test you add a few drops of Biuret reagent to a food substance. If it turns a violet-purple color then it is positive for protein. The final test is the Grease Spot test for lipids. If there is a “grease spot” present after conducting this test, then the food tested positive for lipids. The first group of foods that were tested was the fruits and they consisted of apples, bananas, plantains, and avocados. The apple, banana, and plantain contained starch and sugar and this is correct because these two...
