| '''The Study of the Evolution of the Volvocine Line and Transects at AU -January 14, 2015'''
| |
|
| |
|
| Purpose<u>:
| | * American University (Currently attending)BS, Neuroscience, Graduation 2018 |
| To recognize how natural selection correlates with the evolution of different species and to formulate observations about my own sample niche. During this experiment, we looked to observe unicellular organisms and protists in our Hay Infusion culture. I think my Hay Infusion culture will contain evolutionary organisms in it’s soil.
| |

| |
|
| <u>Materials and Methods:
| | ==Research interests== |
| | |
| -Slides of Chlamydomonas, Gonium, and Volvox
| |
| -Scientific Microscope
| |
| -Sample of my transect
| |
| -Protoslo
| |
| -50 mL conical tube
| |
| -0.1 gm of dried milk
| |
| -Plastic Jar
| |
| -500 mLs of deerpark water
| |
| -Graduated cylinder
| |
| | |
| 1. First, I observed the slides of Chlamydomonas, Gonium, and Volvox.
| |
| 2. Then, I recorded the number of cells, the colony size, the specialization of cells, the mechanisms of motility, and whether the specimen was isogamous or oogamous for each specimen.
| |
| 3. I drew pictures of how each of the specimen looked under the microscope,
| |
| 4. I observed and drew a picture of the area of my transect and recorded what my transect contained.
| |
| 5. I used a 50 mL conical tube to take a soil/vegetation sample of my transect.
| |
| 6. Back in the lab, my group and I measured 500 mLs of deerpark water with a graduated cylinder. And placed it in the plastic jar.
| |
| 7. Then, my group and I placed 12 grams of the transect sample and 0.1 gm of dried milk in the plastic jar.
| |
| 8. We mixed the contents of our Hay Infusion Culture for 10 seconds and removed the lid of the jar.

| This table allowed us to view and compare the observations among the organisms.

| This is my transect (tall brushes) from an aerial view and is labeled with what it consists of.
