Your lab report for Lab 1 should include the following information in order to earn full points for this assignment:

Name: (0.25 points) Be sure to include your full name (First and Last).

Date: (0.25 points) You can use a MM/DD/YYYY or DD/MM/YYYY format, or type out the date

Experiment #: (0.25 points) Be sure the experiment number matches the Lab Module.

Title: (0.25 points) The title of the experiment should also match the title given in the Lab Module.

Purpose: (1 point) This section should be written in complete sentences using third person, and present or past tense. The purpose should include the goal of the experiment. If there is more than one part to the experiment you may summarize all goals in this section. This short description should make it clear what skills or knowledge should be gained from the completion of the experiment.

Procedure: (2 points) The procedure should be a step by step set of instructions that is detailed enough that someone could use it to replicate the experiment. This is very similar to a recipe in cooking. You can write this section using paragraphs, numbered lists, or bullet points, however it should be written in complete sentences (third-person, present or past tense), and well-organized. If there is more than one part to the experiment, you can have multiple subsections in the procedure.

Be sure to include a procedure for:

Part 1:

• The different types of pipettes
• How to use a pipette
• The precision experiment
• The accuracy experiment

Part 2:

• SDS-Page Electrophoresis
• Agarose Gel Electrophoresis

Data/Results/Calculations: (2 points) In this section you should organize all the observations and data that was collected as part of the experiment, being sure to clearly label each measurement and/or part of the experiment. You may wish to construct a data table for a neat and professional looking report. Please note that screen shots from the lab video of data are not permitted.

Be sure to include data/results/calculations for:

Part 1:

• Pipette Precision (Variable Volume vs. Graduated Glass Pipette)
  • Mass Data
  • Calculated Volume
  • Mean
  • Standard Deviation
• Pipette Accuracy (Variable Volume vs. Graduated Glass Pipette)
  • Set Volume
  • Measured Volume
  • Difference

Part 2:

• SDS-Page
  • Data Table
  • Equation from Plot of Log MW vs. Rf
  • Calculation of MW of P2
  • Calculation of MW of P2
• Agarose Gel
  • Which dog is the unknown?

Discussion Questions: (2 points)

How is a glass pipette similar and different from an automatic pipettor?

What is the difference between accuracy and precision?

When pipetting how should you treat volatile organic compounds differently than water-based solutions?

Is electrophoresis an analytical or preparative technique? Explain giving one piece of evidence in your rationale.

Conclusion: (2 points) The conclusion section should be a well developed paragraph (at least 6 sentences), separate from the Data/Results/Calculations section. It should be written in complete sentences (third-person, present or past tense) and should summarize the results of the entire experiment(s). You should emphasize what important concepts were explored, what the results showed, what conclusions can be drawn, and how the purpose of the experiment was accomplished.

Be sure to include:

Which pipette was the more precise?

Which pipette was the more accurate?

Notes: The notes section is where you should put information that does not belong in other sections. This would include background information, or anything else that you deem important that was not directly related to performing the experiment

tep 2: Innovations in Biology and Technology – Writing Assignment

Addresses course outcomes 1-4: 

• recognize and explain how the scientific method is used to solve problems 
• make observations and discriminate between scientific and pseudoscientific explanations 
• weigh evidence and make decisions based on strengths and limitations of scientific knowledge and the scientific method 
• use knowledge of biological principles, the scientific method, and appropriate technologies to ask relevant questions, develop hypotheses, design and conduct experiments, interpret results, and draw conclusions 

Write a paper about your chosen topic.  

• Your paper should consist of a title page, introduction, several paragraphs addressing the questions for your chosen topic, conclusion, and references.  
• The outline you wrote in step 1 should be your starting point, but you can make edits to the topics and details you include, and the organization of the content. Take advantage of any feedback received.   
• Your paper should be 750-1500 words, excluding references and the title page. 
• Use a minimum of three (3) reliable information sources. These may or may not be the same resources that you found in step 1 of this assignment.  
• The majority of your paper should be written in your own words, in your own writing style and structure, and fully paraphrasing information from the selected information sources (just changing a few words in a sentence is not enough). Your paper should consist of less than 10% direct quotes. Quotation marks must be used at the start and end of a direct quote, followed by an in-text citation. When paraphrasing, you should also use text citations to acknowledge the source.  

you will be asked to submit a term paper that includes at least 10 pages and at least 5 scholarly research, government white papers, or reputable industry reports.  This term paper will ask you to survey the ways in which Big Data has been utilized across a range of business activities that include the following aspects:  product development, predictive maintenance, customer experience, fraud and compliance, machine learning, operational efficiency, and drive innovation.  Further details defining the scope of each of these business activities is included below for clarification.  

Follow the instructions and answer the questions as asked 

No plagiarism and no copy 

QUESTION 1:   

Your computer received the following digital, binary signal sequence. Now, your computer should cover the binary data to the text so you would read it on your computer screen. Assume, the received binary code was generated based on ASCII.

Received binary data:

01001001 01010100 00110101 00110000 00110101 00100000 01010111 01101001 01101110 01110100 01100101 01110010 00100000 00110010 00110000 00110010 00110011 00100000 01010111 01010101 01010011 01010100 00100000

You should write the text that will appear on your computer screen. Simply convert the binary data to text.

HNIT:  Do your web search and find (Binary to Text Translator) to convert the binary to back to text.

QUESTION 2:  

The user would like to save the incoming binary that you decoded in question 1. Therefore, the user would like to make sure there is enough memory space in his/her computer. What would be the minimum memory space (in Bytes) required to save the incoming data?  

QUESTION 3:  

Develop the Manchester Code for the first character of the digital data stream in question 1.  You should develop Manchester Code for 01001001

Your name must be on the digital signal code diagram 

QUESTION 4:  

In an airport, two computers in two different terminals will be in communication-based on the requirements below;

The user in terminal 1 and the receiver terminal 2 can operate on different clock frequencies.

The speed of the communication is not a concern; however, the quality of the communication is important.

The terminals are more than 100 meters apart. There is a heavy external electrical noise which would impact and disrupt the communication and cause miscommunication (corrupted message) between terminals

4a) 

What would be your preferred data transmission technique? Synchronous or Asynchronous transmission. Explain your answer

4b) 

What kind of Error Detection method you would use to make sure you will detect most of the communication errors? Explain your answer

CASE 5-2: The computers are in different cities. The user computer is in Los Angeles and the receiver (the database) is in NYC.  This has to be a fast and secure communication  

1. a) What type of communication (digital or analog) would you use between given to communication points?
2. b) If it is digital then write the cable type you would use, if it is analog then write the wireless communication type you would use.

CASE 5-3: Both computers are in the same building. The user computer is on the second floor and the database is on the third floor.

1. a) What type of communication (digital or analog) would you use between given to communication points?
2. b) If it is digital then write the cable type you would use, if it is analog then write the wireless communication type you would use.
