Formal lab report instructions for the Biology 110 laboratory
Overall assignment:
For Biology 110 you will be submitting one formal lab report for grading this semester. This lab’s formal report must be written in the 3rd person and in the past tense. Their length will vary depending on how concise each writer is, but the paper should be approximately 5 to 9 pages in length, including graphs. The pages are to have 1 inch margins, be double spaced, typed in Ariel or Times Roman 12 pt. and include supporting data (e.g., data tables, graphs, pictures or any other supporting material you wish to include) Each of the section headings must be labeled in your lab report. Skip lines between each section.
Sections
Title:
The title should describe the experiment you are conducting in some detail. You are not allowed to use the title you find in your laboratory manual. The title will be placed on a separate page with your name and the names of your lab mates, date, and course and lab section.
Abstract
The report abstract is a short summary of the report. It should be no more than one paragraph (100-200 words) and should include about one or two sentences on each of the following main points:
· Purpose of the experiment
· Key results
· Major points of discussion
· Main conclusions
It helps to complete the other sections of the report before writing the abstract, as these four main points can be drawn from them.
Introduction
This section should provide sufficient background information to the lab that will allow the reader to understand some of the principles you are investigating. This material can come from what you developed in your pre-lab write-up. It should include a specific statement of the question or problem under investigation, and statements about other goals of the laboratory exercise.
Why is this question important? How does this question relate to the "real world"?
This statement should be two paragraphs in length so you need to do a literature search on the topic(s) and incorporate this information into your introduction. Be certain to cite your sources. Clearly state the purpose of the experiment at the end of the section.
HYPOTHESIS:
The hypothesis section should contain a series of statements of what is to be expected to be observed during the experiment based on the background information you provided in the introduction. These statements should predict the outcome of each experiment or test based on solid scientific principles that you read from your text, the internet or your lab manual. Again, if the prelab was written properly, this section will come from the pre-lab write-up that you worked on prior to the lab. Use the “if…then….because” format.
In other words the hypothesis should convey what you think will happen during the investigation. It differs from a guess in that it is based upon prior knowledge or evidence. It should be supported by previously developed evidence and/or concepts.

Writing a Formal Lab Report and Scientific Papers
General Tips o Be concise. In scientific writing, it is very important to say as much as is needed while using as few words as possible. Lab reports should be thorough, but repetition should be avoided. The entire report should be clear and straightforward.
· Write in the third person. Avoid using the words “I” or “we” when referring to the experimental procedure. For example, instead of “I boiled 50 mL of water for 10 minutes,” the report should read, “50 mL of water was boiled for 10 minutes.” This can be a bit difficult to get used to, so it is important to pay close attention to the wording in the report
· Use correct verb tenses. Many students become confused when trying to decide whether to use past or present tense in their reports. If referring to anything that happened in the past, then use the past tense. For example, if you are writing about an experiment you have already performed, then refer to it in the past tense. Present tense should be used when referring to a scientific principle, such as, “Water is two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen.” The general rules for verb tenses are as follows:
· The experimental procedure has already been conducted, so use the past tense of the verb when referring to it:
Ex: The purpose of the experiment was...
The compound was weighed to 5 g...
· The report, equipment, and theory still exist, so use the present tense of the verb for them:
Ex: The purpose of this report is...
Bunsen burners are used...

HOW TO WRITE A LAB REPORTLab reports are an essential partPazSilviapm
HOW TO WRITE A LAB REPORT
Lab reports are an essential part of all laboratory courses. A lab report is how you explain what you did in an
experiment, what you learned, and what the results meant. You will be required to write a lab reports for labs.
Here is the standard format.
1. FORMAT/TITLE PAGE
The reports should be submitted in .pdf form and should be typed, in Times New Roman, 12 pt font and double
spaced. The title states what you did. It should be brief and should describe the main point/s of the experiment.
Include the following information:
a. The title of the experiment
b. Your name and the names of any lab partners
c. Your teacher’s name
d. The date the lab was performed
2. INTRODUCTION/PURPOSE
Usually the Introduction is one paragraph (5-6 sentences) that explains the objectives or purpose of the lab.
This should be where you state your hypothesis. This section should be written in complete sentences and
should connect lab concepts to class content. The introduction should provide background information on the
history of the concept tested, scientists, theories, and any laws tested in the experiment. It should also contain
any prior knowledge on which the experiment is based including explanations of principles, definitions,
experimental techniques, theories, and laws.
3. MATERIALS
List everything needed to complete your experiment and include the purpose of each item. This includes all
equipment, reagents, and computer programs used to complete the experiment. Drawing of the apparatus
set-up should be included in this section if needed.
4. PROCEDURE
List the steps you completed during your investigation. Be sufficiently detailed so that anyone could read this
Section and duplicate your experiment. Write it as if you were giving directions. Try to use an action verb at the
beginning of each sentence. Number your steps.
5. DATA
Numerical data obtained from you procedure usually is presented as a table. Data encompasses what you
recorded when you conducted the experiment. It is the facts only, not any interpretation of what they mean.
6. RESULTS + ANALYSIS
Results describe in words what the data means.
The Data section contains numbers. The Analysis section contains any calculations you made based on those
number. This is where you interpret the data and determine whether or not a hypothesis was accepted. This is
also where you would discuss any mistakes you might have made while conducting the investigation. You
might also wish to include ways this study might have been improved
**FIGURES & GRAPHS
Graphs and figures must both be labeled with a descriptive title. Label the axes on the graph, being sure to
include units or measurement. Your teacher will instruct you as to when graphs and figures are appropriate and
which ones to include
7. CONCLUSION
Conclusions are usually a single paragraph that sums up what happened in the experiment, whether your
hypothesis was accepted or rejected and what this means.

4. Previews of final project can be arranged thru office hours or appointment.
• Due Date is 11/25/15
BASICS:
• For this project you will take your wellness goal set at the beginning of class, formulate a
hypothesis, design a self-experiment, run the experiment, and then write up the results in a
scientific lab report format.
Step 1: Develop a hypothesis based on one of the dimensions of wellness you learned in class
that you have identified you would like to investigate for yourself. This statement gives a possibility
(if) and explains what may happen because of the possibility (then).
Examples:
• If I set goals before studying, I will spend an average of 10 less minutes per hour on
Social Media.
• If I eat an overall healthy diet (one which does not include fast food), then I will have
more energy daily.
• I hypothesize that without restrictive diet (2,000 a day), cardio workout alone (60
minutes daily at 85 % target heart rate, then I will drop of three pounds a week for a
total of nine pounds for three weeks.
• If I run 5 miles a day for 6 days a week for 4 weeks, I will lose 1 pound a week for a total
of 4 pounds.
• If I only eat out once a week for 4 weeks, I will save $20.00 a week for a total of $80.00
Step II: Develop and identify the materials and the methods needed to conduct your self-
experiment. Explain what are your methods for your experiment.
Make sure to include:
• Length of study (at least 3 weeks)

Writing a Scientific Report or Paper
Results of careful laboratory work are not useful unless they can be presented in a clear, concise manner to others for comment and evaluation. Such presentations are usually in the form of a scientific paper published in a reputable scientific journal. Scientific communications have many things in common, which leads to a rather standard style of writing that allow the results and meaning of experimentation to be quickly grasped by the reader. Scientists do not expect to read attractive, stimulating prose to obtain information from technical scientific papers. The experimental design, results and explanation of results are what are attractive and stimulating not the cleverness of the prose. The following discussion should be useful in helping you prepare your laboratory reports, which are scientific reports.
Read it carefully before beginning your reports. Your laboratory instructor may make additional comments. The specific format of a scientific paper varies among journals. However, the format presented below is the most commonly used. It is the format you must use in your scientific writing for this course.
Part I: Format of a Scientific Report
The scientific report will be composed of seven sections. Each section will have a heading immediately followed by the text, figures or graphs. The order of the sections is: title, abstract, introduction, methods, results, discussion and literature cited.
A) Format regulations:
· typed
· double spaced
· 10-12 font, Times New Roman
· 1 inch margins
· pages numbered
· titled sections
· untitled hypothesis
· Quotes are
NOT
allowed. Everything must be properly paraphrased.
· No website references are permitted as sources. No exceptions.
· Everything must be properly cited. It is considered plagiarism if it is not.
· Write in third person, past tense
The overall presentation/grammar/spelling will be evaluated. Although this is not an English class, these elements are important to the proper communication of science. Before you turn in your final version, use the spell check function and reread your report. You should also take the time to visit the Center for Academic Success to participate in the Read, Write, and Cite Workshop series for additional help on writing your reports.
Note: Never write statements like the following: “My lab report is about…”, “My hypothesis is…”,
or any version of this type of statement.

Title
Section
Create a title that briefly conveys to the reader the purpose of the paper. The title of your report must be informative. Many readers scan journal article titles and the decision whether or not to pursue an article is based on the information in the title. Generally, this information includes: primary factor(s) manipulated or studied; outcome of manipulation (the response or effects); and organism studied, if relevant. An example of an informative title would be: "The Effect of Varying Serotonin Conce ...

Utilize this template to complete the Week 5 Final Lab Report and ensure that you are providing all of the necessary information and proper format for the assignment. Before you begin, please note the following important information:
1. Carefully review the Final Lab Report instructions before you begin this assignment.
2. The Final Lab Report should cover all 3 experiments from your Week Two Lab.
3. Review instructor feedback from the Week Three outline of the Final Lab Report and make changes as necessary.
4. Review the Sample Final Lab Report for an example of a final product on a different topic. Your format should look like this sample report before submission.
5. Run your Final Lab Report through Turnitin using the student folder to ensure protection from accidental plagiarism
Title
Abstract
The abstract should provide a brief summary of the methods, results, and conclusions. It should very briefly allow the reader to see what was done, how it was done, and the results. It should not exceed 200 words and should be the last part written (although it should still appear right after the title page).
Introduction
The introduction should describe the background of water quality and related issues using cited examples. You should include scholarly sources in this section to help explain why water quality research is important to society. When writing this section, make sure to cite all resources in APA format.
The introduction should also contain the objective for your study. This objective is the reason why the experiment is being done. Your final report should provide an objective that describes why we want to know the answer to the questions we are asking.
Finally, the introduction should end with your hypotheses. This section should include a hypothesis for each one of the three experiments. These hypotheses should be the same ones posed before you began your experiments. You may reword them following feedback from your instructor to illustrate a proper hypothesis, however, you should not adjust them to reflect the “right” answer. You do not lose points for an inaccurate hypothesis; scientists often revise their hypotheses based on scientific evidence following an experiment.
Materials and Methods
The materials and methods section should provide a brief description of the specialized materials used in your experiment and how they were used. This section needs to summarize the instructions with enough detail so that an outsider who does not have a copy of the lab instructions knows what you did. However, this does not mean writing every little step like “dip the pH test strip in the water, then shake the test strips,” these steps can be simplified to read “we used pH test strips to measure water pH”, etc. Additionally, this se.

HOW TO WRITE A LAB REPORT
Lab reports are an essential part of all laboratory courses. A lab report is how you explain what you did in an
experiment, what you learned, and what the results meant. You will be required to write a lab reports for labs.
Here is the standard format.
1. FORMAT/TITLE PAGE
The reports should be submitted in .pdf form and should be typed, in Times New Roman, 12 pt font and double
spaced. The title states what you did. It should be brief and should describe the main point/s of the experiment.
Include the following information:
a. The title of the experiment
b. Your name and the names of any lab partners
c. Your teacher’s name
d. The date the lab was performed
2. INTRODUCTION/PURPOSE
Usually the Introduction is one paragraph (5-6 sentences) that explains the objectives or purpose of the lab.
This should be where you state your hypothesis. This section should be written in complete sentences and
should connect lab concepts to class content. The introduction should provide background information on the
history of the concept tested, scientists, theories, and any laws tested in the experiment. It should also contain
any prior knowledge on which the experiment is based including explanations of principles, definitions,
experimental techniques, theories, and laws.
3. MATERIALS
List everything needed to complete your experiment and include the purpose of each item. This includes all
equipment, reagents, and computer programs used to complete the experiment. Drawing of the apparatus
set-up should be included in this section if needed.
4. PROCEDURE
List the steps you completed during your investigation. Be sufficiently detailed so that anyone could read this
Section and duplicate your experiment. Write it as if you were giving directions. Try to use an action verb at the
beginning of each sentence. Number your steps.
5. DATA
Numerical data obtained from you procedure usually is presented as a table. Data encompasses what you
recorded when you conducted the experiment. It is the facts only, not any interpretation of what they mean.
6. RESULTS + ANALYSIS
Results describe in words what the data means.
The Data section contains numbers. The Analysis section contains any calculations you made based on those
number. This is where you interpret the data and determine whether or not a hypothesis was accepted. This is
also where you would discuss any mistakes you might have made while conducting the investigation. You
might also wish to include ways this study might have been improved
**FIGURES & GRAPHS
Graphs and figures must both be labeled with a descriptive title. Label the axes on the graph, being sure to
include units or measurement. Your teacher will instruct you as to when graphs and figures are appropriate and
which ones to include
7. CONCLUSION
Conclusions are usually a single paragraph that sums up what happened in the experiment, whether your
hypothesis was accepted or rejected and what this means.

like to modify.
Important Dates and Deadlines:
1. Hypothesis Statement 10/1
2. Methods due 10/8
3. Data Collection update 10/20
4. Previews of final project can be arranged thru office hours or appointment.
• Due Date is 11/25/15
BASICS:
• For this project you will take your wellness goal set at the beginning of class, formulate a
hypothesis, design a self-experiment, run the experiment, and then write up the results in a
scientific lab report format.
Step 1: Develop a hypothesis based on one of the dimensions of wellness you learned in class
that you have identified you would like to investigate for yourself. This statement gives a possibility
(if) and explains what may happen because of the possibility (then).
Examples:
• If I set goals before studying, I will spend an average of 10 less minutes per hour on
Social Media.
• If I eat an overall healthy diet (one which does not include fast food), then I will have
more energy daily.
• I hypothesize that without restrictive diet (2,000 a day), cardio workout alone (60
minutes daily at 85 % target heart rate, then I will drop of three pounds a week for a
total of nine pounds for three weeks.
• If I run 5 miles a day for 6 days a week for 4 weeks, I will lose 1 pound a week for a total
of 4 pounds.
• If I only eat out once a week for 4 weeks, I will save $20.00 a week for a total of $80.00
Step II: Develop and identify the materials and the methods needed to conduct your self-
experiment. Explain what are your methods for your experiment.
Make sure to include:
• Length of study (at least 3 weeks)

Writing a Scientific Report or Paper
Results of careful laboratory work are not useful unless they can be presented in a clear, concise manner to others for comment and evaluation. Such presentations are usually in the form of a scientific paper published in a reputable scientific journal. Scientific communications have many things in common, which leads to a rather standard style of writing that allow the results and meaning of experimentation to be quickly grasped by the reader. Scientists do not expect to read attractive, stimulating prose to obtain information from technical scientific papers. The experimental design, results and explanation of results are what are attractive and stimulating not the cleverness of the prose. The following discussion should be useful in helping you prepare your laboratory reports, which are scientific reports.
Read it carefully before beginning your reports. Your laboratory instructor may make additional comments. The specific format of a scientific paper varies among journals. However, the format presented below is the most commonly used. It is the format you must use in your scientific writing for this course.
Part I: Format of a Scientific Report
The scientific report will be composed of seven sections. Each section will have a heading immediately followed by the text, figures or graphs. The order of the sections is: title, abstract, introduction, methods, results, discussion and literature cited.
A) Format regulations:
· typed
· double spaced
· 10-12 font, Times New Roman
· 1 inch margins
· pages numbered
· titled sections
· untitled hypothesis
· Quotes are
NOT
allowed. Everything must be properly paraphrased.
· No website references are permitted as sources. No exceptions.
· Everything must be properly cited. It is considered plagiarism if it is not.
· Write in third person, past tense
The overall presentation/grammar/spelling will be evaluated. Although this is not an English class, these elements are important to the proper communication of science. Before you turn in your final version, use the spell check function and reread your report. You should also take the time to visit the Center for Academic Success to participate in the Read, Write, and Cite Workshop series for additional help on writing your reports.
Note: Never write statements like the following: “My lab report is about…”, “My hypothesis is…”,
or any version of this type of statement.
(1)
Title
Section
Create a title that briefly conveys to the reader the purpose of the paper. The title of your report must be informative. Many readers scan journal article titles and the decision whether or not to pursue an article is based on the information in the title. Generally, this information includes: primary factor(s) manipulated or studied; outcome of manipulation (the response or effects); and organism studied, if relevant. An example of an informative title would be: "The Effect of Varying Serotonin Conce ...

*This template will provide you with the details necessary to finalize a quality Final Lab Report. Utilize this template to complete the Week 5 Final Lab Report and ensure that you are providing all of the necessary information and proper format for the assignment. Before you begin, please note the following important information:
1. Carefully review the Final Lab Report instructions before you begin this assignment.
2. The Final Lab Report should cover all 3 experiments from your Week Two Lab.
3. Review instructor feedback from the Week Three outline of the Final Lab Report and make changes as necessary.
4. Review the Sample Final Lab Report for an example of a final product on a different topic. Your format should look like this sample report before submission.
5. Run your Final Lab Report through Turnitin using the student folder to ensure protection from accidental plagiarism
Title
Abstract
The abstract should provide a brief summary of the methods, results, and conclusions. It should very briefly allow the reader to see what was done, how it was done, and the results. It should not exceed 200 words and should be the last part written (although it should still appear right after the title page).
Introduction
The introduction should describe the background of water quality and related issues using cited examples. You should include scholarly sources in this section to help explain why water quality research is important to society. When writing this section, make sure to cite all resources in APA format.
The introduction should also contain the objective for your study. This objective is the reason why the experiment is being done. Your final report should provide an objective that describes why we want to know the answer to the questions we are asking.
Finally, the introduction should end with your hypotheses. This section should include a hypothesis for each one of the three experiments. These hypotheses should be the same ones posed before you began your experiments. You may reword them following feedback from your instructor to illustrate a proper hypothesis, however, you should not adjust them to reflect the “right” answer. You do not lose points for an inaccurate hypothesis; scientists often revise their hypotheses based on scientific evidence following an experiment.
Materials and Methods
The materials and methods section should provide a brief description of the specialized materials used in your experiment and how they were used. This section needs to summarize the instructions with enough detail so that an outsider who does not have a copy of the lab instructions knows what you did. However, this does not mean writing every little step like “dip the pH test strip in the water, then shake the test strips,” these steps can be simplified to read “we used pH test strips to measure water pH”, etc. Additionally, this se.

The Cat Food Industry in the UK: how has it changed in the last 50 years? An investigation into customer identification and targeting.
We can make the general topic (The Cat Food Industry) more specific by restricting the scope of your study by:
· time (in the last 50 years)
· place (in the UK)
· subtopic (customer identification and targeting)
Contents
1.2 Background of the cat food industry 9
NB: Numbering your sections and subsections is useful. However, for such a short Project (4,000 words) try to only use two levels (i.e. 1 divided into 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 etc. is two levels).
Avoid using three levels (i.e. 1 divided into 1.1 divided into 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3 etc.)
and do not use four or more levels (i.e. 1 divided into 1.1 divided into 1.1.1 divided into 1.1.1.1, 1.1.1.2, 1.1.1.3 etc.)
Abstract
The British are well known as a nation of cat lovers. The results show that, since the 1970s, the cat food industry has become greatly diversified and influenced by lifestyle choice.
You cannot write the Abstract until you have completed all of the main body.
The Abstract will typically be between approximately100 and 200 words.
The following are the main body.
Only these sections are included in the 4,000 word count(+/- 10%).
Introduction
The British are well known as a nation of cat lovers.
The Introduction is typically 5-10% of the total wordcount. Your Introduction will therefore be between approximately200 and 400 words.
NB! Do NOT write your Introduction or your conclusionUNTIL you have completed the Literature Review, Methodology, Results or Discussion chapters.
Literature Review
Watson (2008) attributes these trends to changing attitudes towards animal welfare.
The Literature Review will typically be between 800 and 1000 words.
NB: On p. 11 of the Project Handbook, you will see that to get 70 –79 in this section, you need to “Demonstrat[e] application of theories, interpretation of data or other information.”
Many students wrote good background information, but either did not explore the academic theories relating to your topic.
The next sections of the main body will depend on whether your Project includes Primary research or Secondary research.
Primary research will include a Methodology, Results and Discussion section (see below for details).
Secondary research will typically be divided into two or three sections. The title of each section will focus on a specific asp.

Abstract
This is the abstract, which is typed in block format with no indentation. It is a brief summation of your paper and should be 150 words or less. It should be accurate and concise. Your abstract should also be written in a self-contained way so people reading only your abstract would fully understand the content and the implications of your report. It may be helpful to write this section last when you have collected all the information in your paper. See section 2.04 APA for helpful tips and for more information on writing abstracts.
Level-1 Heading—Part I
This introduction is a statement of why you conducted this lab research and what information it has the potential to contribute to the scientific world. Be sure to include any background information important for the reader to understand your study. Be sure to also clearly identify your hypothesis statement or statement(s).
This will be the beginning of the body of your essay. Even though it has a new heading, you want to make sure you connect this to your previous section so your reader can follow you and better understand your hard work. Remember to make sure your first sentence in each paragraph both transitions from your previous paragraph and summarizes the main point in your paragraph. Stick to one topic per paragraph, and when you see yourself drifting to another idea, make sure you break into a new paragraph. Try to avoid long paragraphs to avoid losing your reader and to hold his or her attention—it’s much better to have many shorter paragraphs than few long ones. Think: new idea, new paragraph.
Make sure that you do not include “Level 1 Heading” in your final paper. Each heading should be replaced with the title of the heading.
Level-2 Heading—Materials and Methods
For the Methods and Materials, please describe the set-up of the lab and how you conducted your experiment. It is acceptable to use the word “I” in this section. Use it sparingly, though, as it is not commonly accepted in scientific papers. Describe the process you went through to collect your data in detail, including minor elements that may be relevant, like time or day, or anything important for the reader to understand your data collection methods.
The Level 2 heading here implies that we are in a subsection of the previous section. Using headings are a great way to organize your paper and increase its readability, so be sure to review heading rules on APA 3.31 and 3.32 in order to format them correctly. For shorter papers, using one or two levels is all that is needed. You would use Level 1 (centered, bold font with both uppercase and lowercase) and Level 2 (left aligned, bold, both uppercase and lowercase).
Level-2 Heading—Data

Department of Biology
A scientific research report is a form of
communication in which the investigator
succinctly presents and interprets data collected in
an investigation. Writing such reports is similar to
the writing in other scientific disciplines except
that the format will differ as will the criteria for
grading.
Writing the Report
The questions and hypotheses that initiate
an investigation, the resultant data gathered, and
the background information obtained by reading
the literature will lead to conclusions. Your
research report presents these conclusions and the
appropriate evidence (data and relevant literature).
Before writing the report, construct an
outline that logically presents the information to
support your conclusions. Organize the data into
tables and figures to present the evidence in a
logical order. Many authors prefer to construct a
draft by rapidly putting down ideas with little
regard to sentence structure, and to make
corrections later. Others prefer to make revisions
as they proceed. Write the report with a target
audience of other students with experience in
biology equivalent to that of the class for which
the report is written.
Proper use of English is considered
paramount in grading. Your major responsibility
is to make the reader understand exactly what you
mean by using words with precision, clarity, and
economy. Every sentence should be exact and say
something of importance (no "padding").
Economy and accuracy require using
straightforward English sentences (subject, verb,
and object). Follow a consistent pattern of tenses.
Write in the active voice unless you have good
reason to use the passive voice. The active is the
natural voice, the one in which people commonly
speak and write.
Quotations are to be avoided. All
sentences should be based on your understanding
of source material that you then write as your own
original sentences. When discussing the works of
others, do not include extraneous information,
such as first names or scientific affiliations. In
scientific writing, the major idea of a paragraph (or
sentence) is placed first. Evidence for the idea,
modifications, exceptions, etc., then follow. This
allows readers to quickly skim research reports by
reading the first sentence in each paragraph.
After finishing a draft, review it to see if
the paragraphs and sentences follow a logical
sequence. Examine the arrangement of paragraphs
within a section; some may belong in another
section. Make sure that the transitions from one
idea to another are clear. Study each sentence to
see if it can be clarified, shortened, or omitted.
Rewrite as necessary to achieve clarity. This type
of review and rewriting is best done after not
looking at the manuscript for a few days. Then,
you should ...
Proof Project The pumping lemma for regular languages .docxbriancrawford30935
Proof Project
The pumping lemma for regular languages:
If a language L is regular, there exists a constant p ≥ 1 such that every sentence s L of length ≥p can
be written as xyz =s satisfying these three conditions: |y| > 0, |xy| ≤ p, and for all i≥ 0, xyiz L.
L4 = {a
k bn cn | k, n > 0 } {bi c j | i, j ≥ 0 } ∑= {a,b,c}
Note that L4 satisfy the pumping lemma but are not regular.
Write a report and the report (proofs) must be well written grammatically and technically. The quality and
style of your writing is expected to be suitable for publication.
Problem:
a) Use the diagonalization argument to show that the set of functions from the set of natural numbers
to the set {true, false} is not countable. Show how self-refutation is used in the proof.
b) Use the pumping lemma to prove that a subset of L4 is not regular, and then use a closure property
of regular languages to prove that L4 is not regular.

The Individual Laboratory Report
Although raw data collected in the laboratory may, of course, be shared amongst group members, the
laboratory report must be the students own, individual work. The laboratory report is not a group
assignment; any plagiarism will result in a zero for the laboratory report score in addition to any other
consequences of academic dishonesty. If you are unsure as to what might constitute plagiarism within
the laboratory report, be sure to ask your TA or instructor before submitting anything.
In general, a scientific paper should:
Be concise but descriptive
Use a past tense, third-person narrative and strong verbs
Be written in paragraph form
Follow the outline provided below

Most women experience their closest friendships with those of th.docxroushhsiu
Most women experience their closest friendships with those of the same sex. Men have suffered more of a stigma in terms of sharing deep bonds with other men. Open affection and connection is not actively encouraged among men. Recent changes in society might impact this, especially with the advent of the meterosexual male. “The meterosexual male is less interested in blood lines, traditions, family, class, gender, than in choosing who they want to be and who they want to be with” (Vernon, 2010, p. 204).
In this week’s reading material, the following philosophers discuss their views on this topic: Simone de Beauvoir, Thomas Aquinas, MacIntyre, Friedman, Hunt, and Foucault. Make sure to incorporate their views as you answer each discussion question. Think about how their views may be similar or different from your own. In at least 250 words total, please answer each of the following, drawing upon your reading materials and your personal insight:
To what extent do you think women still have a better opportunity to forge deeper friendships than men? What needs to change to level the friendship playing field for men, if anything?
How is the role of the meterosexual man helping to forge a new pathway for male friendships?

Most people have a blend of leadership styles that they use. Some leaders are more flexible in applying a wide range of leadership styles, whereas others are more consistent and generally use just one or two preferred behaviors. Consider if two strong individuals begin a new company and discuss the following:
If two diverse individuals, each having a different leadership style, were tasked with effectively co-leading an organization, what potential conflicts might occur between these different leadership styles?
How will their personal leadership styles influence the organizational culture?
How would you recommend that these two leaders work together most effectively?

Moral rights as opposed to legal rights are not dependent on a polit.docxroushhsiu
Moral rights as opposed to legal rights are not dependent on a political system for their legitimacy. This is the category of rights that all human air--breathers, as opposed to non-human air-breathers--- should be afforded to them by virtue of their having intrinsic value and not only instrumental value. These rights, or entitlements, are supported by various ethical theories when for instance the Universalism thesis under Utilitarianism requires that all persons' (women's and men's) interests be considered in the calculations of Hedonistic options available. Kantianism insists that all Unverbalizable maxims be respectful of the rights of all persons to be treated with dignity and respect--which includes freedom of choice. Virtue ethics, more modernly, does not distinguish basic "good " character traits of excellence such as integrity, good judgment, role identity--not as a woman or a man in any given role but, the ability to fulfill the duties of that role within a community by a member of either sex---, holism--the ability to habitually practice the other virtues in an integrative manner while recognizing the importance of other persons to the community and vise versa. The various Justice theories do not relegate justice based on sex, just on relevant differences based on ability, endeavor, contribution, etc.
Do current generatons ( including current businesses) owe a duty to future generations to produce products and conduct business in an environmentally sustainable manner so that future generations are assured of inheriting a livable planet( one on which reasonable persons would want to live); even if it means that current generations must sacrifice many preferences in current lifestyles? Why or why not?
First define environmental sustainability (hint: the U.N. has a good definition). Also, the term "future generations" includes all of the yet to be borne, not those that are younger than you but are breathing.

The Assignment: DF #2 - Theoretical Perspectives
Find a newspaper article, online or physical paper, and identify the structural functionalist, social conflict, and symbolic interctionist view of the social issue that is discussed in the article. Think about how each of these perspectives view society. You can get this from your reading of the text. For example, structural functionalists view society as social harmony with a high degree of social order with the institutions meeting their manifest and latent functions, all for the good of society, compared to conflict theorists, which view society as an arena of social inequality; dominant and subordinate groups, competing for scarce resources. In comparison, a symbolic interactinist may view society based upon symbolic meaning, labeling and social construction and the interaction with others in society.

A Overview of a Project
This section shows you a typical organisation for a Project and the approximate word count for your sections.
SECTION
EXAMPLE
The following three sections are called the ‘Front matter’ – they arenotincluded in your total word count.
NB! Do NOT write your front matter textUNTIL you have completed main body of the project.
Title page
The Cat Food Industry in the UK: how has it changed in the last 50 years? An investigation into customer identification and targeting.
We can make the general topic (The Cat Food Industry) more specific by restricting the scope of your study by:
· time (in the last 50 years)
· place (in the UK)
· subtopic (customer identification and targeting)
Contents
1.2 Background of the cat food industry 9
NB: Numbering your sections and subsections is useful. However, for such a short Project (4,000 words) try to only use two levels (i.e. 1 divided into 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 etc. is two levels).
Avoid using three levels (i.e. 1 divided into 1.1 divided into 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3 etc.)
and do not use four or more levels (i.e. 1 divided into 1.1 divided into 1.1.1 divided into 1.1.1.1, 1.1.1.2, 1.1.1.3 etc.)
Abstract
The British are well known as a nation of cat lovers. The results show that, since the 1970s, the cat food industry has become greatly diversified and influenced by lifestyle choice.
You cannot write the Abstract until you have completed all of the main body.
The Abstract will typically be between approximately100 and 200 words.
The following are the main body.
Only these sections are included in the 4,000 word count(+/- 10%).
Introduction
The British are well known as a nation of cat lovers.
The Introduction is typically 5-10% of the total wordcount. Your Introduction will therefore be between approximately200 and 400 words.
NB! Do NOT write your Introduction or your conclusionUNTIL you have completed the Literature Review, Methodology, Results or Discussion chapters.
Literature Review
Watson (2008) attributes these trends to changing attitudes towards animal welfare.
The Literature Review will typically be between 800 and 1000 words.
NB: On p. 11 of the Project Handbook, you will see that to get 70 –79 in this section, you need to “Demonstrat[e] application of theories, interpretation of data or other information.”
Many students wrote good background information, but either did not explore the academic theories relating to your topic.
The next sections of the main body will depend on whether your Project includes Primary research or Secondary research.
Primary research will include a Methodology, Results and Discussion section (see below for details).
Secondary research will typically be divided into two or three sections. The title of each section will focus on a specific asp.

Abstract
This is the abstract, which is typed in block format with no indentation. It is a brief summation of your paper and should be 150 words or less. It should be accurate and concise. Your abstract should also be written in a self-contained way so people reading only your abstract would fully understand the content and the implications of your report. It may be helpful to write this section last when you have collected all the information in your paper. See section 2.04 APA for helpful tips and for more information on writing abstracts.
Level-1 Heading—Part I
This introduction is a statement of why you conducted this lab research and what information it has the potential to contribute to the scientific world. Be sure to include any background information important for the reader to understand your study. Be sure to also clearly identify your hypothesis statement or statement(s).
This will be the beginning of the body of your essay. Even though it has a new heading, you want to make sure you connect this to your previous section so your reader can follow you and better understand your hard work. Remember to make sure your first sentence in each paragraph both transitions from your previous paragraph and summarizes the main point in your paragraph. Stick to one topic per paragraph, and when you see yourself drifting to another idea, make sure you break into a new paragraph. Try to avoid long paragraphs to avoid losing your reader and to hold his or her attention—it’s much better to have many shorter paragraphs than few long ones. Think: new idea, new paragraph.
Make sure that you do not include “Level 1 Heading” in your final paper. Each heading should be replaced with the title of the heading.
Level-2 Heading—Materials and Methods
For the Methods and Materials, please describe the set-up of the lab and how you conducted your experiment. It is acceptable to use the word “I” in this section. Use it sparingly, though, as it is not commonly accepted in scientific papers. Describe the process you went through to collect your data in detail, including minor elements that may be relevant, like time or day, or anything important for the reader to understand your data collection methods.
The Level 2 heading here implies that we are in a subsection of the previous section. Using headings are a great way to organize your paper and increase its readability, so be sure to review heading rules on APA 3.31 and 3.32 in order to format them correctly. For shorter papers, using one or two levels is all that is needed. You would use Level 1 (centered, bold font with both uppercase and lowercase) and Level 2 (left aligned, bold, both uppercase and lowercase).
Level-2 Heading—Data
Please create a table.
Format for Research Papers California State Universit.docxshericehewat
Format for Research Papers
California State University, Bakersfield
Department of Biology
A scientific research report is a form of
communication in which the investigator
succinctly presents and interprets data collected in
an investigation. Writing such reports is similar to
the writing in other scientific disciplines except
that the format will differ as will the criteria for
grading.
Writing the Report
The questions and hypotheses that initiate
an investigation, the resultant data gathered, and
the background information obtained by reading
the literature will lead to conclusions. Your
research report presents these conclusions and the
appropriate evidence (data and relevant literature).
Before writing the report, construct an
outline that logically presents the information to
support your conclusions. Organize the data into
tables and figures to present the evidence in a
logical order. Many authors prefer to construct a
draft by rapidly putting down ideas with little
regard to sentence structure, and to make
corrections later. Others prefer to make revisions
as they proceed. Write the report with a target
audience of other students with experience in
biology equivalent to that of the class for which
the report is written.
Proper use of English is considered
paramount in grading. Your major responsibility
is to make the reader understand exactly what you
mean by using words with precision, clarity, and
economy. Every sentence should be exact and say
something of importance (no "padding").
Economy and accuracy require using
straightforward English sentences (subject, verb,
and object). Follow a consistent pattern of tenses.
Write in the active voice unless you have good
reason to use the passive voice. The active is the
natural voice, the one in which people commonly
speak and write.
Quotations are to be avoided. All
sentences should be based on your understanding
of source material that you then write as your own
original sentences. When discussing the works of
others, do not include extraneous information,
such as first names or scientific affiliations. In
scientific writing, the major idea of a paragraph (or
sentence) is placed first. Evidence for the idea,
modifications, exceptions, etc., then follow. This
allows readers to quickly skim research reports by
reading the first sentence in each paragraph.
After finishing a draft, review it to see if
the paragraphs and sentences follow a logical
sequence. Examine the arrangement of paragraphs
within a section; some may belong in another
section. Make sure that the transitions from one
idea to another are clear. Study each sentence to
see if it can be clarified, shortened, or omitted.
Rewrite as necessary to achieve clarity. This type
of review and rewriting is best done after not
looking at the manuscript for a few days. Then,
you should ...
Proof Project The pumping lemma for regular languages .docxbriancrawford30935
Proof Project
The pumping lemma for regular languages:
If a language L is regular, there exists a constant p ≥ 1 such that every sentence s L of length ≥p can
be written as xyz =s satisfying these three conditions: |y| > 0, |xy| ≤ p, and for all i≥ 0, xyiz L.
L4 = {a
k bn cn | k, n > 0 } {bi c j | i, j ≥ 0 } ∑= {a,b,c}
Note that L4 satisfy the pumping lemma but are not regular.
Write a report and the report (proofs) must be well written grammatically and technically. The quality and
style of your writing is expected to be suitable for publication.
Problem:
a) Use the diagonalization argument to show that the set of functions from the set of natural numbers
to the set {true, false} is not countable. Show how self-refutation is used in the proof.
b) Use the pumping lemma to prove that a subset of L4 is not regular, and then use a closure property
of regular languages to prove that L4 is not regular.

The Individual Laboratory Report
Although raw data collected in the laboratory may, of course, be shared amongst group members, the
laboratory report must be the students own, individual work. The laboratory report is not a group
assignment; any plagiarism will result in a zero for the laboratory report score in addition to any other
consequences of academic dishonesty. If you are unsure as to what might constitute plagiarism within
the laboratory report, be sure to ask your TA or instructor before submitting anything.
In general, a scientific paper should:
Be concise but descriptive
Use a past tense, third-person narrative and strong verbs
Be written in paragraph form

Most women experience their closest friendships with those of the same sex. Men have suffered more of a stigma in terms of sharing deep bonds with other men. Open affection and connection is not actively encouraged among men. Recent changes in society might impact this, especially with the advent of the meterosexual male. “The meterosexual male is less interested in blood lines, traditions, family, class, gender, than in choosing who they want to be and who they want to be with” (Vernon, 2010, p. 204).
In this week’s reading material, the following philosophers discuss their views on this topic: Simone de Beauvoir, Thomas Aquinas, MacIntyre, Friedman, Hunt, and Foucault. Make sure to incorporate their views as you answer each discussion question. Think about how their views may be similar or different from your own. In at least 250 words total, please answer each of the following, drawing upon your reading materials and your personal insight:
To what extent do you think women still have a better opportunity to forge deeper friendships than men? What needs to change to level the friendship playing field for men, if anything?

Find a newspaper article, online or physical paper, and identify the structural functionalist, social conflict, and symbolic interctionist view of the social issue that is discussed in the article. Think about how each of these perspectives view society. You can get this from your reading of the text. For example, structural functionalists view society as social harmony with a high degree of social order with the institutions meeting their manifest and latent functions, all for the good of society, compared to conflict theorists, which view society as an arena of social inequality; dominant and subordinate groups, competing for scarce resources. In comparison, a symbolic interactinist may view society based upon symbolic meaning, labeling and social construction and the interaction with others in society.
Prompt:
Write at least one paragraph summarizing your .

Molière believed that the duty of comedy is to correct human vices by exposing them and mocking them to absurd extreme. He also believed that human behavior should be governed by reason and moderation. In
Tartuffe
, he presents characters who engage in extremely negative behavior driven by passion or emotion rather than reason or common sense. Identify two or three characters who fall into this category and discuss their specific extremely negative behaviors, the consequences of their actions and what that means to you.

Research Summary
Firms seeking to avoid reputational spillovers that can arise from dangerous, illegal, and
unethical behavior at supply chain factories are increasingly relying on private social auditors to
provide strategic information about suppliers’ conduct. But little is known about what influences
auditors’ ability to identify and report problems. Our analysis of nearly 17,000 supplier audits
reveals that auditors report fewer violations when individual auditors have audited the factory
before, when audit teams are less experienced or less trained, when audit teams are all-male, and
when audits are paid for by the audited supplier. This first comprehensive and systematic
analysis of supply chain monitoring identifies previously overlooked transaction costs and
suggests strategies to develop governance structures to mitigate reputational risks by reducing
information asymmetries in supply chains.
Managerial Summary
Firms reliant on supply chains to manufacture their goods risk reputational harm if the working
conditions in those factories are revealed to be dangerous, illegal, or otherwise problematic.
While firms are increasingly relying on private-sector ‘social auditors’ to assess factory
conditions, little has been known about the accuracy of those assessments. We analyzed nearly
17,000 code-of-conduct audits conducted at nearly 6,000 suppliers around the world. We found
that audits yield fewer violations when the audit team has been at that particular supplier before,
when audit teams are less experienced or less trained, when audit teams are all-male, and when
the audits were paid for by the supplier instead of by the buyer. We describe implications for
firms relying on social auditors and for auditing firms.

Morality Relativism & the Concerns it Raises
“I want to give moral relativism the good spanking it deserves.”
Peter Kreef philosophy professor, Boston College
Does “relativism” need a spanking?2005 new Pope Benedict warned of the “onslaught of moral relativism”He “has characterized it as the major evil. Some observers believe he is taking a stance in the tense cultural wars in the United States.” (NPR radio, 2005)Mormons agree: “moral relativism/militant atheism”Culture wars?

Source: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4618049
Defining the Terms: RelativismMoral relativism: morality is purely culturalMoral differences & disagreements are irreconcilableFor example, Inuit Eskimos practice infanticide: one woman had borne 20 children but killed 10 at birth.Eskimos also practice euthanasia: when the elderly become too feeble to travel, they’re left to freeze.Hence, there’s no one universal moral truth for all times, places, peoples and culturesThe only possible good is toleration & mutual respect of pluralistic values
*
James Rachels, “The Challenge of Cultural Relativism” (Fifty Readings, 2nd Ed.), 397.
Defining the Terms: AbsolutismMoral absolutism: there are clear moral truths to govern all ethical issues regardless of situation.Immoral to accept the justifiability of two conflicting positions on any given ethical issueFor example: with this position, it would be unacceptable for Bush (pro-life) to say Eskimo infanticide practices are understandable and permissible among EskimosOr if polygamy or underage marriage is wrong, it is wrong everywhere and at all times.But what is “underage marriage”?
Moral Absolutism and Human KnowledgeName some fields of human knowledge where we deal with facts and have made great progress.Scientific theory must deal with hard dataNo science that claims absolute knowledge;Fallibility is the hallmark of scienceBut fallibility does not mean all theories are equal.Why should ethics be any different?If moral truths are not absolute, why should that prove that all moral values are equal?We can measure progress in science but what about ethics?
Illogic of Extreme Moral RelativismIn extreme relativism, no one can rightly pass judgment on others’ values/social practicesConsider Afghan Taliban Culture & Values:Ban on women's work outside the homeBan on women's presence in radio or televisionBan on women at schools or universitiesEthic of absolute relativism is self-contradictory:If I pass judgment on others for passing any judgment, am I not passing judgment on others?
Relativism with Norms Normative relativism: while cultural values clearly differ, nevertheless there are some general purposes shared by all moral codes.A socially accepted way of regulating conflicts of interests in society to preserve that people and culture with rules shaped by situations to that end. A socially accepted way of regulating conflicts of interests within an individual that can’t be equally satisfied a.

International law is in a period of transition. After World War
II, but especially since the 1980s, human rights expanded to
almost every corner of international law. In doing so, they
changed core features of international law itself, including
the definition of sovereignty and the sources of international
legal rules. But what has been called the "age of human
rights" is over, at leastfor now. Whether measured in terms of
the increasing number of authoritarian governments, the
decline in international human rights enforcement
architecture such as the Responsibility to Protect and the
Alien Tort Statute, the growing power of China and Russia
over the content of international law, or the rising of
nationalism and populism, international human rights law is
in retreat. The decline offers an opportunity to consider how
human rights changed, or purported to change, international
law and how international law as a whole can be made more
effective in a post-human rights era. This Article is the first to
argue that international human rights law as a whole-
whatever its much disputed benefits for human rights
themselves-appears to have expanded and changed
international law in ways that have made it weaker, less likely
to generate compliance, and more likely to produce
interstate friction and conflict. The debate around
international law and human rights should be reframed to
consider these costs and to evaluate whether international
law, including the work of the United Nations, should focus
on a stronger, more limited core of international legal norms
that protects international peace and security, not human
rights. Human rights could be advanced through domestic
and regional legal systems, through the the development of
non-binding international norms, and through iterative
processes of international reporting and monitoring-a model
not unlike the Paris Climate Agreement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Science Laboratory Format
Writers in the field of biology must consider not only the form
but the style of writing in biology papers.
As in all fields, there are conventions to follow or typical style
formats of the discipline.
Writing in the sciences is concise, yet provides sufficient detail
to allow the reader to follow the author’s
argument.
A research article or lab report is also frequently written in first
person and in an active voice. For exam-
6. ple, rather than stating, “Bird songs were collected using…”, it
is less cumbersome and more direct to
state, “I collected bird songs using…”. That said, be sure to
clarify with your professor, as some prefer
third-person and passive voice.
Components of a Biology Lab Report
The following is a standard and general format.
A research article or lab report in Biology can be recognized by
the following components.
Title
The title should incorporate the purpose of the study as well as
key words on the topic. For example, if
your purpose was to offer an assessment or a comparison, these
words might appear in the title. If the
object of study was a particular species or experiment, these
objects would appear in the title.
Abstract
You should provide a very brief summary of the entire
document. The main idea from each section of the
paper should be included. Using a sentence or two, you should
highlight each of the following:
o rationale/importance;
7. o objectives/hypotheses;
o how the study was conducted (methodology);
o main findings;
o conclusions.
Introduction
You should draw on relevant published work to provide the
following:
o Background to justify your objectives, hypotheses, and
predictions;
o Statements of your objectives, hypotheses and predictions;
o An explanation of why your study is important in the field.
Methods
You should provide enough detail such that the reader could
duplicate the methods of your study. You
should address several key questions:
o Where was the study performed?
o When was the study performed?
o On what organism/structure was the study performed?
8. o What instruments were used in the study?
o What was the experimental design?
o What variables were measured? (A variable refers to any
biological feature that may be manipulated
or observed. For example, arm length, eye colour and singing
rate are all variables.)
o What controls were used? (In experimental design, when
manipulating a variable to test for a re-
sponse, a control must also be performed where no
manipulations are made. Data obtained from controls
allow us to determine whether the results we obtained through
manipulation were due to the experiment
or some other factor.)
o What statistics were used to analyze your data?
Use figures, flow-charts and tables to help illustrate locations
and complicated experimental designs. Re-
fer to these illustrative tools within the text.
Example: "I studied the mating behaviour of song sparrows on
Vancouver Island, British Columbia (Figure
1)”.
Results
You should summarize the measurements you obtained in your
9. study. Typically you should not provide
the raw data, but instead present trends and statistics from your
analyses (i.e., means, variance, p-val-
ues). Example: Male birds sing at a higher rate in June (mean
10.8±1.5 calls/min) than in July (mean
4.3±1.2 calls/min; χ2 = 1.5, p < 0.05).
Be sure to include figures and tables to illustrate major
findings. Also be sure to refer to figures and ta-
bles within the text.
DO NOT INTERPRET RESULTS. Leave this for the discussion.
Discussion
You should discuss what your results mean with respect to your
hypotheses and the field of interest.
Consider the following questions:
o Do your results support your hypotheses?
o What are possible causes of the observed patterns?
o Are there alternative explanations for the observed patterns?
o How do your results compare to other studies?
o What were some of the limitations of your study?
10. o What are the implications of your study?
SUPPORT YOUR WORK WITH RELIABLE SOURCES
Literature Cited
You should provide the complete references for all sources cited
in your paper. Unlike other disciplines
that strictly follow prescribed formats such as MLA or APA, the
exact format of references in Biology is
commonly The CSE Manual for Authors, Editors, and
Publishers: Scientific Style and Format. Therefore,
instructors will often indicate which writing style you should
use in your own paper or report.
