To put the flies to sleep, first, two Drosophila Anesthetizers were obtained. One of the two sponge caps was soaked in ether (1 mL). Then, the glass vial containing Drosophila was gently and quickly tapped on the lab bench to temporarily disorient the flies. The cap was removed and a Drosophila Anesthetizer was placed on over the vial. The vial and the Anesthetizer were flipped over and tapped against the lab bench to disorient the flies again.…

Rebecca Chua 10 Honors Summer Assignment: The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls “Like build the Glass Castle. All of Dad’s engineering skills and mathematical genius were coming together in one special project: a great big house he was going to build for us in the desert. It would have a glass ceiling and thick glass walls and even a glass staircase… All we had to do was find gold, Dad said, and we were on the verge of that. Once he finished the Prospector and we struck it rich, he’d start work on our Glass Castle.”…
My favorite constellation is Scorpius ("The Scorpion") due to the fact that I am a Scorpio (my birthday is November 15th). Scorpius is the southernmost constellation out of all the Zodiac constellations and is near the center of the Milky Way. Also, the red star, Antares, is located where the Scorpion's heart is supposed to be. The star is red because it should be going out soon. The Scorpion's heart may either turn into a black hole (which many describe our hearts to be like) or a new star.…

He was the son of Posioden and could walk on water, because of that.…

Latin for "crab", it is the dimmest of all the zodiac constellations and used to be the Sun's most northerly position in the sky. It is located in between Gemini (to its west) and Leo(to its east). It is best known among stargazers as home of Praesepe, an open cluster. Cancer is most well known in Greek mythology as the crab sent by the goddess Hera to help the hydra kill Heracles.…
My favorite constellation is the Cetus or 'whale' because I think it looks more like a frying pan than a whale. The Cetus is a constellation made up of 88 stars and the brightest star is called Deneb Kaitos. The Cetus is very close to the other zodiac constellations such as Aries, Pisces and Aquarius. The creation story of the Cetus constellation stems from Greek mythology. In this story the Cetus is called a Sea Monster and not a whale.…
For example, some types of harmless flies have yellow and black or brown and black stripes that resemble those of stinging insects like bees and wasps (Figure 1). Because the organisms look alike, predators are likely to avoid the harmless flies with the assumption that they can sting. Other examples of Batesian mimicry include some species of…
Ursa Minor (Latin: "Smaller She-Bear", contrasting with Ursa Major), also known as the Little Bear, is a constellation in the northern sky. Like the Great Bear, the tail of the Little Bear may also be seen as the handle of a ladle, hence the name Little Dipper: seven stars with four in its bowl like its partner the Big Dipper. It was one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd-century astronomer Ptolemy, and remains one of the 88 modern constellations. Ursa Minor has traditionally been important for navigation, particularly by mariners, because of Polaris being the North…

The pharmaceuticals U-50.488H in 0.6 and 1.25 mg/kg doses for control animals was ineffective for behaviour changes. In the same time the 2.5 mg/kg dose decreased the number of approaches compare to the behaviour of animals, which got injected with saline (p < 0.001) and the pharmaceuticals in 0.6 mg/kg dose (p < 0.05) and 1.25 mg/kg (p < 0.001). For aggressive male mice the pharmaceuticals with 2.5 mg/kg dose decreased the number of approaches to partition compare to behaviour of animals, which got injected with saline (p < 0.01) and the pharmaceuticals in 0.6 mg/kg (p < 0.05) and 1.25 mg/kg (p < 0.01) doses.
