Concentration Dependence

	<p>In this experiment, you will combine varying concentrations of aqueous HCl and sodium thiosulfate to make solid sulfur, which rapidly gathers into opaque yellow particles at a certain sulfur concentration. Since the reaction solution starts clear and colorless, you can easily tell when it reaches that concentration.</p>
	<p>You&#39;ll use the same test tube and total volume each time, so it will take the same amount of sulfur to make each solution completely opaque. Thus, you&#39;ll measure the reaction progress by timing how long that takes. You&#39;ll then use that data to estimate the reaction orders of the individual reactants and of the overall reaction.</p>
	<p>Before starting the lab, make a table listing the reactant concentrations, the time to solution opacity, and the solution temperature for the trials.</p>

	<li data-note-item="1" data-parent-collapse="">Recrystallization of Acetanilide<button class="expand">Expand</button>
	<p>In this part of the lab, you&#39;ll purify acetanilide by recrystallization from an aqueous solution. Acetanilide is moderately soluble in boiling water, but it&#39;s much less soluble in room temperature and cold water. Aniline, a potential impurity, is much more soluble in room temperature water. Thus, you&#39;ll first make a saturated solution of acetanilide in boiling water. Then, you&#39;ll slowly cool the solution to room temperature.</p>
	<p>As the acetanilide&#39;s solubility decreases, it will slowly form flat colorless or white crystals. Water-soluble impurities will remain in solution. You will then cool the solution to further decrease the solubility of acetanilide. Finally, you&#39;ll recover the crystals with vacuum filtration and measure the melting point of your crystals.</p>

	<p>Density is a measure of how compact a substance or object is, and it is calculated as mass divided by volume. When a dense object is placed in a liquid with a lower density, the object sinks; when the object is less dense than the liquid, it floats. When the densities are the same, the object will be suspended in the liquid. In this experiment, we&#39;ll determine the density of an egg by creating a solution with the same density. We&#39;ll measure the density of the salt solution using different volume measurement glassware and determine which is the most accurate.</p>

Always view the measurement at eye level and measure the volume from the bottom of the meniscus. The lines on the graduated cylinder are 0.2 mL apart, meaning that you can read the volume to the hundredths place.

For example, when we look at the graduated cylinder measurement, the weight of the empty container is 90.92, and the weight of the full container is 111.59. The weight measurements have significant figures to the hundredths place, so it is important that significant figures are maintained throughout our calculations.

		<div class="lab-step">The 50-mL beaker weighed 28.65 g when it was empty and 47.96 g when it contained 20 mL of salt solution. Therefore, the mass of 20 mL of the salt solution is 19.31 g.</div>

Sexual Selection and Mate Choice

<button class="expand">Expand</button><ul class="lab-items"><li data-sub-note-item="1-1"><div class="lab-step">Note: In this activity, you and your classmates will portray a sexually reproducing population consisting of an equal number of male and female animals. You will simulate several different mating scenarios to determine how relative quality, attractiveness, sex, and parental commitment affect mate choice and reproductive success. The goal of this activity is to maximize your progeny. 
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-2"><div class="lab-step">Hypotheses: There are several overall hypotheses for female and male behavior for this activity. The main experimental hypothesis for female behavior is that females will mate with males of high quality more frequently than those of low quality, yielding a higher reproductive success. The null hypothesis is that females will not demonstrate preference towards high- or low-quality males in any of the four rounds of mating. For males, one experimental hypothesis is that males with a higher visible score will have greater reproductive success. Another could be that males will be more selective for females in scenarios in which they join females to care for offspring as opposed to scenarios in which they exhibit no parental commitment. The null hypothesis for male behavior might be that males will not demonstrate preference towards high- or low-quality females in any of the four rounds of mating. 
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-3"><div class="lab-step">Activity Overview: To begin, each student will be assigned a sex as well as a relative quality and attractiveness score. Remember - the goal is to maximize your reproductive success in each round. You do this by mating with partners of the highest possible quality which is rated on a scale of one to three with three being the highest possible score. Attractiveness scores, which follow the previously described scoring paradigm, correlate with quality but do not exactly predict the score. Though useful, they are not a perfect way to choose the best mate.  If you are assigned a male ID holder, you will have 16 gametes. However, if you are assigned a female ID holder, you will only have four. A successful mating occurs when one sperm and one egg are paper-clipped together and deposited at the fertilization area.

<button class="expand">Expand</button><ul class="lab-items"><li data-sub-note-item="1-1"><div class="lab-step">NOTE: To observe the relationship between form and function in animals, you will be examining and dissecting a cricket and a crayfish. Each pair of students will receive one of each of these organisms. When dissecting, be sure to wear gloves, closed-toed shoes, and safety goggles. Take care when handling dissecting tools, as they may be sharp. HYPOTHESES: In this experiment, the experimental hypothesis could be that the cricket and crayfish have similar body structures because they are both arthropods, but that they will have some specific adaptations for their different habitats and lifestyles. The null hypothesis might be that the cricket and crayfish have identical adaptations and body plans.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-2"><div class="lab-step">To begin, place the cricket on its back and observe its appendages.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-3"><div class="lab-step">In Table 1, make detailed notes about your observations and try to predict the potential function of each of the forms you observe. <a href="https://www.jove.com/CDNSource/lm/labs/27/Table_1_Animal_Diversity.xlsx" style="display:block;margin:20px;" target="__blank">Click Here to download Table 1</a>
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-4"><div class="lab-step">Do the same with the wings of the cricket if they are present.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-5"><div class="lab-step">Consider how the structure of the wings benefits the cricket. 
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-6"><div class="lab-step">If the cricket does not have wings, consider the reasons behind their absence. 
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-7"><div class="lab-step">If the cricket is female, it will have an ovipositor. This can be observed as a long dark tube protruding from the posterior end and it is used to deposit eggs.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-8"><div class="lab-step">Consider why the ovipositor is useful. 
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-9"><div class="lab-step">Next, flip the cricket over onto its back and observe the mouth parts under a microscope. NOTE: Use a probe to move structures when necessary.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-10"><div class="lab-step">Make a hypothesis about the size and type of prey the cricket consumes based upon your observations.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-11"><div class="lab-step">Continue to examine the external parts of the cricket, making hypotheses about their function until you have filled at least five rows in the table with your observations.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-12"><div class="lab-step">Using tweezers to hold the cricket down, carefully remove the wings and legs from the body with the scissors.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-13"><div class="lab-step">Next, position the body of the cricket so that its underside is facing down.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-14"><div class="lab-step">Again with the scissors, cut the thin outer exoskeleton from the anus to the head trying not to damage any of the organs underneath.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-15"><div class="lab-step">Use the tweezers to open the incision and dissecting pins to hold open the exoskeleton.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-16"><div class="lab-step">Next, use the water pitcher to carefully add water to the Petri dish until it reaches just below the top edge. This should make the exposed organs of the cricket easier to see.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-17"><div class="lab-step">Move the Petri dish to the stage of the dissecting microscope and turn on the light.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-18"><div class="lab-step">Use the cricket figure as a reference and observe the organs under the dissecting microscope. Where necessary, use the probe to move organs that may be blocking others.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-19"><div class="lab-step">Identify as many internal structures as possible and fill out the form and predicted function for at least three internal structures.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-20"><div class="lab-step">Next, you&#39;ll observe the outer and inner structures of the crayfish. Begin with the crayfish on its back and observe the appendages.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-21"><div class="lab-step">In Table 1, take notes about the structures you notice.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-22"><div class="lab-step">Observe the tail. Devise a hypothesis for its jointed structure. Consider how a crayfish moves in its environment.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-23"><div class="lab-step">Next, with the crayfish still on its back, look for the swimmerets under its tail.  NOTE: If the crayfish is male, the swimmerets nearest the legs are long extending between the legs. These are specialized reproductive structures that transfer sperm to the female. Females do not have these long structures, but instead have swimmerets that store developing embryos.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-24"><div class="lab-step">Consider the benefits of this strategy. Be sure to observe both a male and female crayfish, checking with neighboring students to identify these structures.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-25"><div class="lab-step">Next, observe the mouth parts of your crayfish using a probe.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-26"><div class="lab-step">Based on these structures, make a hypothesis about the size and type of prey you think crayfish consume.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-27"><div class="lab-step">Before beginning the dissection, be sure to fill in Table 1 with at least five external structures you observed in the crayfish along with their predicted function. With the organism lying legs down, use scissors to cut an incision in the exoskeleton from the tail to between the eyes. Take care to not disturb the organs underneath.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-28"><div class="lab-step">Next, remove the carapace as demonstrated in the video.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-29"><div class="lab-step">Open the tail and use the pins to secure the exoskeleton down to the dissecting tray exposing the organs.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-30"><div class="lab-step">Observe the organs first with the naked eye. Use the figure to identify the different body parts of the animal.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-31"><div class="lab-step">Then, if there is enough space on the stage, place the dissecting tray with the crayfish under the dissecting microscope to view these structures more closely.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-32"><div class="lab-step">Fill out at least three rows of Table 1 with these observations and predicted functions of internal structures in the crayfish.
