1/14/15 Lab 1: Biological Life at AU
I. Purpose: The purpose of today's lab was to observe and record characteristics of an assigned transect. My assigned transect was group 3: Tall Bushes. I recorded macroscopic observations of abiotic and biotic components in my transect. Then my group made a Hay Infusion Culture from materials gathered from our niche.
II. Materials and Methods:
· 20 x 20 meter transect to study
· Use a sterile 50 mL conical tube to gather materials such as soil and vegetation from transect
· Place 10-12 grams of gathered materials into a large jar
· Add 500 mLs of deerpark water to the jar
· Add 0.1 gm of dried milk into the jar and screw on lid
· Mix contents gently for 10 seconds
· Place the jar in designated lab section area with the jar labeled and lid off
III. Data and Observations:
The abiotic components inside the transect included:
· Light
· Water/snow
· Concrete
· A metal lamp post
· Dirt
· Rocks
The biotic components inside the transect included:
· Grass
· Shrub
· Bushes
Figure 1. is an aerial-view diagram of my transect labeled with it's abiotic and biotic components.
Figure 2. is a satellite view of Group 3's transect.
Figure 3. is a map view of Group 3's transect.
IV. Conclusions
