Help with research Project
« on: April 08, 2014, 07:19:10 pm »
So i am in AP Biotechnology III and i have to do a research project. This is my idea..

I am attempting to arrest yeast cells to study the cell cycle (Heat shock and ice bath) I am going to dye yeast cells and count the cells in the G1 Phase of the cell cycle. The dye is Methylene blue.

I am going to run 3 seperate yeast cultures. One with normal nutrients and temperature, one with a raised temperature and one with a lowered temperature.

I will be able to tell what cycle it is by comparing it with images found online. I then will be able to look at it under a microscope and count the cells.


 Another Q i want to answer is how heat shocking it effects the yeast.

Sorry for wording it poorly but thats what i got. For anyone who can understand this or has an easier way to do it please respond!

Biotechnology III is not an AP class.

It is is my school sonny o boy.

here is my schools biotech classes


Biotechnology 1
Microbiology (counts as 2)
And Biotech 3

Then AP Bio 1
then Ap Micro
Then AP Bio 3

you only have to take biotech 1 and 3 to get into ap bio. I took biotech 1 and 3 my sophmore year, each 1 semester. Then took AP bio 1, also a semester and this was start of new semester, i started AP Bio 3

There is only one AP Biology course. Any other course is either (a) offered as a standard high school class or (b) offered as a remote program from a college or university.

AP specifically relates to College Board which is a national and standardized organization.

Anyways, I've only taken two college bio courses, but your "research project" (which seems more like an experiment) seems very plain and common, even something you might do as a standard 100s lab.

Also, how the **** is this lab "biotechnology" if there isn't a technology focus in the "research project"? Give me the effect of electrical shock or at least a low-powered electric field in this environment!

Well chakra all schools are different and have various programs, your right though, it is kind of an experiment. Here is the format at which i wrote it up

I. Objective:

II. Experimental Design:

III. Procedure / Materials

IV. Results

V. Conclusion

Now, once a month my lab workbook is sent to a college where it is looked at and deemed worthy.
I am aware this project is not really about biotech, but i assure you we do real biotech work like seeing if any GMO's are in specific foods, making solutions and using them with things in the real world to. What we mainly do is genetic manipulation of microorganisms for the production of hormones, medicine etc.
