Lab-Aids™ Metabolism Experiment
Lab-Aids™ Metabolism Experiment uses a hands-on approach to introduce students to metabolic processes
Supplier: Lab-Aids™ 55
Description
- This kit introduces students to the study of metabolism by measuring the rate of oxygen consumption of small organisms (not included)
- Using Patented (U.S. Pat. No. 3,581,737) Lab-Aids Metabolism chambers, students observe organisms (not included) and draw correlations between size of an organism, the temperature of the environment, and oxygen consumption.
- They are also asked to calculate an organism's respiratory rate in cm3 of oxygen per kg per hour, measure total gas change in a closed environment and determine an organism's metabolic relationship to total gas in a closed environment.
- Includes two unbreakable chambers large enough for small animals and plants, one is used to measure the organism's oxygen consumption; the other serves as a control.
