Population Density Lab

What buret reading should you record when the liquid level is as shown in Figure 2?

Insert the dissolved oxygen meter and start recording data, in terms of dissolved oxygen concentration and temperature. Turn on the pump and aerate the water until the concentration of dissolved oxygen has reached 10.0 mg/L.

The solid water was the control variable in the experiment and the investigators compared values that resulted from irradiation of the solid water with each bolus’ average Dmax. Table 1 recorded the ratios that resulted from these values. ANOVA calculations from the values shown in Table 1 resulted in an F value of 762.65 and a P value of less than 0.0001. The investigator compared the results between each individual group with a Tukey HSD test. When compared to one another, each sample resulted in a P value less than 0.01.

Dissolved oxygen is oxygen that is trapped in a fluid, such as water. Since many living organism requires oxygen to survive, it is a necessary component of water systems such as streams, lakes and rivers in order to support aquatic life. The dissolved oxygen is measured in units of parts per million (ppm). Examine the data in Table 4 showing the amount of dissolved oxygen present and the number of fish observed in the body of water the sample was taken from; finally, answer the questions below.

1. Based on the information in Table 2, it seems that the more dissolved oxygen in the water there is the higher the population of fish is.

- Having more dissolved oxygen increases the number of fish observed in the body of water.

To analyze the environmental monitoring policy and its resulting measurements in surface waters to determine the differentiation with respect to stream size and flow rate.

To performed the experiment, a volumeter was set up to measure the net oxygen production under white light, then a second step was followed to measure oxygen consumption under dark conditions (oxygen production only happens in the presence of light and oxygen consumption in the presence of dark light) and finally, a third step consisted of recording the measure of the net oxygen production under the presence of green light.

The next step in this lab is to rinse the Erlenmeyer flask with distilled water down the drain and then repeat the experiment, this time adding 10 ml of 0.10M KI and 10 ml of distilled water to the flask instead. The flask should again be swirling to allow the solution to succumb to the same temperature as the water bath and once it has reached the same temperature, 10 ml of 3% H2O2 must then be added and a stopper must be immediately placed on the flask and recording should then begin for experiment two. After recording the times, the Erlenmeyer flask must then be rinsed again with distilled water down the drain. After rinsing the flask, the last part of the lab can now be performed. Experiment three is performed the same way, but instead, 20 ml of 0.10 ml M KI and 5 ml of distilled water will be added and after the swirling of the flask, 5 ml of 3% H2O2 will be added. After the times have been recorded, data collection should now be complete.

How does the amount of salinity affect how much oxygen is given off by duckweed?

Place the Elodea in the water, start the stopwatch and measure and record the amount of oxygen bubbles produced by the Elodea over a 5-minute period.

Initial population is chosen randomly. There is no clear indication as to how large a population should be. The considerations are: if the population is too large, there may be difficulty in storing the data, but if the population is too small, there may not enough strings for crossovers. In our experiments, the population range 20 to 200.

The current Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) testing equipment used by the Water Quality Research Laboratory Division of Biogenesis Engineering Associates is the BODTrak II Apparatus. The apparatus itself was procured in Q3 of 2016, and

The amount of oxygen available in natural waters is also limited by the amount of dissolved salts. This factor is a determinant of oxygen availability in transitional zones between sea and fresh water. Pure water, when equilibrated with oxygen at 0° C, for example, contains about 50 millilitres of oxygen per litre; under the same conditions, a solution containing 2.9 percent of sodium chloride contains only 40 millilitres of oxygen per litre. Bodies of water may have oxygen-poor zones. Such zones are especially evident in swamps and at the lower levels of deep lakes. Many animals are excluded from such zones; others have become remarkably adapted to living in them.
