CHEM 150: General Chemistry I Laboratory

Explore the fascinating interaction between electrical energy charge and materials through the lens of an electroscope. Discover how inserting a conductor between its charged foil sheets changes the charge dynamics leading to an attraction between foil and needle. Understand the roles of conductors insulators and charge induction in this intriguing experiment.

Discover the roles of sensory, interneurons, and motor neurons in the nervous system. These specialized cells transmit, process, and execute commands, orchestrating our responses. Experience the seamless coordination that enables us to interact with our environment.

Explore the sensory marvels of the male silkworm moth known as Bombyx mori and how they detect specific chemical signals from females. Uncover a hypothesis about the unique sensitivity of the moth's antennae and a prediction stemming from it. Learn how to design an experiment to test this hypothesis and deepen your understanding of insect behavior.

Learn about the critical roles of the epiglottis and glottis in our respiratory and digestive systems. Understand how the epiglottis acts as a protective gate during swallowing, while the glottis facilitates sound production. Together, they ensure safe breathing and swallowing.

This video provides a comprehensive explanation of mucous and serous membranes, defining their characteristics and addressing statements about their epithelial types, functions, and exceptions.

Discover the debate between Intelligent Design (ID) and evolutionary science as they clash over the complexity of biochemical pathways in nature. Explore the concept of guided vs. unguided evolution and how diverse pathways challenge the ID perspective.
