Summary Introduction

To review:

The main mechanism of heat transfer between the body and the environment. Also, the way through which this mechanism transfers heat.

Introduction:

Movement of heat, solutes, pressure, and water follows the gradient core principle. Thus, they move along the concentration gradient. Heat moves from an area of higher temperature to lower temperature. Metabolic reactions taking place in the body produce a large amount of heat, which is exchanged with the environment through the skin.

After you feel comfortable with your counting method and identifying cells in the various stages of mitosis, use the four images below of whitefish blastula to count the cells in each stage until you reach 100 total cells, recording your data below in Data Table 1. (You may not need to use all four images. Stop counting when you reach 100 total cells.) After totaling the cells in each stage, calculate the percent of cells in each stage. (Divide total of stage by overall total of 100 and then multiply by 100 to obtain percentage.)   Data Table 1Stage    Totals    PercentInterphase        Mitosis:        Prophase        Metaphase        Anaphase        Telophase        Cytokinesis        Totals    100    100% To find the length of time whitefish blastula cells spend in each stage, multiply the percent (recorded as a decimal, in other words take the percent number and divide by 100) by 24 hours. (Example: If percent is 20%, then Time in Hours = .2 * 24 = 4.8) Record your data in Data…
