I have attached a pdf file of lab manual - it has about 45 questions about the lab Read all of experiment 5 in the lab manual. You will be be completing a modified version of this experiment using a series of fourteen videos created by Professor Judy George and filmed by Senior Lab Technician Lisa Oertling using an older version of the lab manual, so we will need to make some adjustments. During the lab period you will watch the following videos and record experimental observations about physical and chemical changes. As you complete the experiment you will answer the Procedure Questions in the lab manual.

Be sure to include the experimental technique to be used and determination of unknowns, if applicable. This section should be written in your own words.Purpose - introducing and explaining the purpose of the experiment to be performed. Be sure to include the experimental technique to be used and determination of unknowns, if applicableReference procedure - It is recommended that you write out your procedures, in your own words, prior to the start of lab to help you understand the experiment better, organize your thoughts, and draw any data tables you will need.Safety - List the any additional safety precautions called for in the experiment; these are usually given in the lab manualWaste - List the any special waste handling procedures called for in the experiment; these are usually given in the lab manual.Results and Calculations - The results from your experiment are always entered in this section. Recall in the Objective that you asked the question, “what is being investigated in this experiment?”. This is the place to answer that question.Discussion - The discussion is used to explain your results; the previous section is used to present the results, this section is used to discuss these results. Ask yourself provocative questions such as: Do the results make sense, is there some data missing? Did you obtain a result different from your expectations?Conclusion - Restate the final results of your experiment in a concise and thorough manner. This section should be brief (one-paragraph).Questions - Give the answers to any questions appearing in the lab manual.

Discussion 2: The Definition of LifeFor this assignment you will form a scientifically supported conclusion as to whether or not viruses should be classified as living organisms. The objectives for this assignment align with module objectives for the application of the definition of life to the study of cells and to reinforce concepts in the structure and function of DNA and with Course Objective I - Describe Science as inquiry based on the scientific method of investigation and learning; and Course Objective III - Compare and contrast the unifying concepts and processes in life science from the simplest to the most advanced levels of organization and how these affect life on earth.Your post should be 500 words long. The approximate time required to complete this assignment is two hours.Introduction:We have learned that a single cell demonstrates all of the required characteristics of life and are therefore the are simplest living things. As you read the two opposing articles below regarding the classification of viruses as living or nonliving, look to compare and contrast the two views based on what we have learned about the defining characteristics of all living things. Your post should follow the Thesis, Antithesis, Synthesis format outlined below.We have learned that a single cell demonstrates all of the required characteristics of life and are therefore the are simplest living things.

Thesis:Here you propose your thoughts and ideas about the prompt and provide support with examples and assumptions from the sources.Pick a side as to whether you believe viruses should be included in the tree of life or not based on the articles and what we've discussed in class.2. Antithesis:Here you acknowledge the other side of the issue and explain the reasonings of the other side. Provide support with examples and assumptions from the sources.3. Synthesis:Here you try to bring the two sides together by proposing solutions or by discussing future implications.
