How would the organisms collected for DNA barcoding from a water source with low dissolved oxygen compare to the organisms colleted from a water source with high dissolved oxygen.
Homework Answers
Aaquatic organisms have been the most commonly used focal groups for biological monitoring of the environmental Quality of water. If dissolved oxygen drop below certain level, fish death rate will rise, high level of algal bloom, so the diversity of organisms will be less in water source having low oxygen demand. Barcoding will be different from organisms living in high oxygen demand. Bacterial decomposition will rise using up most of the dissolved oxygen and hence low dissolved oxygen will be there.

Dissolved Oxygen in Aquatic Ecosystems Dissolved oxygen is oxygen trapped in a fluid such as water. Since many living organisms require oxygen to survive, it is a necessary component of water systems such as streams, lakes, and rivers in order to support aquatic life. The dissolved oxygen is measured in units of ppm (parts per million). Examine the data in the table below, showing the amount of dissolved oxygen present and the number of fish observed in the body of...

Mutations arc changes in the DNA sequence of organisms and are the primary source of variation in populations. Brainstorm with your group mates some known mutations in the human population (some examples are provided): Of the mutations listed above, which ones do you predict to affect the "fitness" (ability to reproduce) of the individual? How (is it beneficial or detrimental)? Of the mutations listed above, which ones do you predict to affect the "fitness" (ability to reproduce) of the population?...

Q 1(a) [13.33 Marks] Levels of dissolved oxygen in water can be determined by the Winkler method in the Leaving Certificate Chemistry course as follows: Under alkaline conditions manganese(II) sulphate produces a white precipitate of manganese(II) hydroxide: Mn2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) → Mn(OH)2(s) This reacts with the dissolved oxygen to produce a brown precipitate. 2Mn(OH)2(s) + O2(aq) → 2MnO(OH)2(s) Addition of concentrated H2SO4 releases free iodine from KI. MnO(OH)2(s) + 4H+(aq) + 21-(aq) + Mn2+(aq) + 12(aq) + 3H2O(1) The free...

The mass of DNA collected from the compost soil was 1.523 x10-6g and from the garden soil was 3.767 x10-6g. Original mass of compost soil = 0.222g Original mass of garden soil = 0.27g Assuming: 1) 100% recovery of the cellular DNA from your bacteria; and 2) the mass of DNA in a single bacterium weighs 5.2·10-15 g (true for E. coli at least) ... how many bacteria were present in your soil sample? How many per g of soil?...

I'm working on a prelab titled: Analysis of Water for Dissolved Oxygen. The question is: Calculate the concentration in mg/L (ppm) of a solution that is 4*10^-3M in O2, assuming a density of 1g/mL for the solution. I'm not sure if I provided all of the information needed, seeing as how I don't entirely understand the question. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
