Lab Simulations
These are simulations we offer. Based on your preference, we can add it to your course.
Photosynthesis
This simulation helps you to understand oxygen production under different types of light.
Mitosis
Different mitotic stages are studied through microscopic observations.
Respiratory Volumes and Capacities
This test helps you to calculate respiratory parameters (ERV, RV, FRC, and TLC) for a given graphical data.
Meiosis
Different meiotic stages are studied through microscopic observations.
Mendelian Genetics
Virtually simulated breeding experiments are evaluated for genotypes and phenotypes through the monohybrid and dihybrid cross.
Blood Pressure
Here, the systolic and diastolic pressure is determined from the blood pressure monitoring process using a sphygmomanometer.
Bioinformatics
This experiment utilizes the genetic code to determine the mRNA and DNA sequence from a given polypeptide chain.
Benedict Test
This test detects the presence of reducing sugars in a sample. Amylase digestion of starch gives rise to these reducing sugars.
Iodine Test
This test detects the presence of starch in an amylase-treated sample. If starch is absent then amylase has broken down starch to produce reducing sugars
Biuret Test
This qualitative test uses Biuret’s reagent to detect the presence of peptide bonds in proteins or peptides but not in amino acids
Plasmid DNA extraction and Agarose gel electrophoresis
The structure of plasmids extracted from Escherichia coli is studied with the help of restriction mapping.
Hardy-Weinberg
This equilibrium helps us determine a population’s genotypic, phenotypic, and allelic frequency.
Atomic bonding
This qualitative test uses Biuret’s reagent to detect the presence of peptide bonds in proteins or peptides but not in amino acids
Microscopy
This experiment provides an understanding of how to calibrate various factors of the microscope for a better view of a cell and its components.
