AP Biology Labs - part 1

Mr. Anderson covers the first seven AP Biology labs, focusing on inquiry-based learning. He explains artificial selection with fast plants, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium using beads and spreadsheets, DNA comparison with BLAST, diffusion and osmosis experiments, photosynthesis measurement with leaf chads, respiration rates using a respirometer, and cell division through mitosis and meiosis using onion root and sordaria.

What experimental setup was used to measure the rate of photosynthesis?

In the respiration lab, what role does potassium hydroxide play?

What are the key differences between mitosis and meiosis as discussed in the video?

How does the Sordaria experiment demonstrate the concept of crossing over?
