Why Teach Fungi In High School?, David Mclaughlin Jan 1967

Why Teach Fungi In High School?, David Mclaughlin

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Student and teacher alike should be more aware of fungi. The reasons I state for this assumption are: fungi are interesting; they play an important role in human affairs; fungi are associated with many areas of biological sciences; they are easily utilized in the classroom; and they are easy to obtain and work with.

Physico - Chemical Measurements Of Miller's Bay, Lake West Okoboji, Summer, 1964, G. Dennis Cooke Jan 1966

Physico - Chemical Measurements Of Miller's Bay, Lake West Okoboji, Summer, 1964, G. Dennis Cooke

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The purpose of this paper is to report on some physico-chemical measurements of Miller's Bay, Lake West Okoboji, made during summer, 1964, and to compare these measurements to some similar lakes. Lake West Okoboji, a large glacial lake, is located in northwest Iowa near the Minnesota border. Miller's Bay is small and is subjected to soil and domestic drainage. Measurements were made in April and at intervals from June to September. Samples were from 1 and 3 meter depths; depth at the sampling site was 8 meters. Water of the bay was hard and due primarily to magnesium, a situation …


Status And Management Of The White-Tailed Deer In Iowa, 1954-1962, Paul D. Kline Jan 1965

Status And Management Of The White-Tailed Deer In Iowa, 1954-1962, Paul D. Kline

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Data regarding populations, hunting, harvest, and biology of Iowa deer (Odocoileus virginianus) gathered by the State Conservation Commission is presented from four ecologically distinct areas. Following 10 consecutive hunting seasons, deer are more abundant and better distributed than before. Abundance through the state is not consistent with available forest habitat. Separate seasons have been permitted for deer of any sex or age by shotgunners and archers on a statewide basis most years. Harvests during recent years have averaged near 20% of an increasing population. Hunting success for gunners during 3-day seasons has been near 45-50%. Bucks outnumber does in …


A Report On A Creative Thesis Project Concerning The Making Of A Film As A Personal Analogy Of Pottery And Natural Environment, Edwin H. Harris Jan 1965

A Report On A Creative Thesis Project Concerning The Making Of A Film As A Personal Analogy Of Pottery And Natural Environment, Edwin H. Harris

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

As long as I can remember, I have thought in mental images rather than in abstract ideas. My mind seems to translate sensations to visual mental images that are seen as either vague, colored shapes or as clearly defined forms related visually to a particular sight, sound, feeling, smell, or taste. When stimulated by the senses, the images appear in rapid succession, sometimes without apparent logical order; they may come and go with varying intensity or may present themselves singly or in groups. These images are always present while I am concious [sic]; they are unlike my dreams which move …

Collection And Culture Of Lower Animal Forms, Cameron L. Christensen Jan 1964

Collection And Culture Of Lower Animal Forms, Cameron L. Christensen

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

The trend in secondary biology is to use living material in so far as it is possible. Biology instruction, as it has advanced beyond the descriptive level, has included more projects requiring living animals. The local collecting and culturing of some of these organisms adds just that much more biological experience to the course.


Digestive System Morphology And Salivary Enzymes Of The Potato Leafhopper, Empoasca Fabae (Harris), Lorna Chumley Berlin, Edwin T. Hibbs Jan 1963

Digestive System Morphology And Salivary Enzymes Of The Potato Leafhopper, Empoasca Fabae (Harris), Lorna Chumley Berlin, Edwin T. Hibbs

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The digestive tract of the potato leafhopper Empoasca fabae (Harris) was very much like descriptions of the tracts of other Empoasca and closely related Cicadellidae. Major morphological differences: (1) no filter chamber was present in E. fabae, (2) the Malpighian tubules were joined at their distal ends which lie free in the body cavity, (3) and the fourth Malpighian tubule branched from one of the other tubules. The principal salivary gland of E. fabae was composed of four pairs of lobes which varied in histological and cytological detail as well as in their staining reaction with toluidine blue, a …

Culture Of Excised Embryos Of Pinus Ponderosa, Virgil K. Howe Jan 1962

Culture Of Excised Embryos Of Pinus Ponderosa, Virgil K. Howe

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Embryos of Pinus ponderosa Laws. were excised and placed on a nutrient agar medium to which auxins in varying concentrations had been added. Results indicated that when the auxins were dissolved in and diluted with 40 per cent alcohol there was inhibition of seedling growth and development. Techniques were devised which eliminated the use of alcohol. In the absence of alcohol, morphologically normal seedlings were produced which were transferred to quartz sand after 60 days and at 113 days were transplanted into soil. Apparent normal growth and development continued throughout the duration of the experiment. The addition of auxins produced …

Air Ion Densities In A Smoke-Filled Room, Philip J. Lorenz Jan 1961

Air Ion Densities In A Smoke-Filled Room, Philip J. Lorenz

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

This study was concerned with the differentiation and measurement of small, intermediate, and large ion densities in a sealed room. It was found that the background density of large negative ions exceeded that of any other class. Under conditions of tobacco smoke pollution, large ions of both positive and negative charge were the major components of the air ion population. This was accompanied by a persistent attrition of high mobility ions both during and after smoking.

The Value Of Including Chemistry Content In The Study Of High School Biology, Ramon Duane Buckley Jan 1957

The Value Of Including Chemistry Content In The Study Of High School Biology, Ramon Duane Buckley

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The purpose was to evaluate the effect of including some definite chemistry content in high school biology. This evaluation was made by comparing outcomes of instruction in two different groups of a high school biology course. The two groups were equated in terms of the intelligence quotients, the sex, and the previous achievement in biology of the class members. The comparative gains in factual knowledge were measured by means of an evaluation test. The comparative gains in appreciations and interests in biology were measured with a questionnaire.


Some Photographic Materials And Techniques For High School Biology Teachers, Robert L. Calentine Jan 1956

Some Photographic Materials And Techniques For High School Biology Teachers, Robert L. Calentine

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Biology teachers in the smaller high schools are often confronted with the problem of securing sufficient classroom teaching material: charts, specimens, and reference books. A relatively inexpensive method of obtaining resource material would prove valuable to teachers confronted with this problem. Granting that actual study of specimens is of greater value than indirect methods, it is often helpful to have a supply of supplementary visual aids.

A Progress Report On The Preservation Of The Prairie, Ada Hayden Jan 1946

A Progress Report On The Preservation Of The Prairie, Ada Hayden

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

In accord with the specifications of the Prairie Project sponsored by the Iowa Academy of Science, the following recommendations for preservation of prairie have been co-operatively formulated; a number of the most desirable remaining tracts of prairie representative of virgin soils, flora, and fauna have been described and photographed. Not all of the tracts reported in the survey of the state by counties have been yet inspected.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PRESERVATION OF PRAIRIE: The preceding brief report on Prairie Areas in Iowa, (Hayden, 1941) which should be preserved has shown: 1. That preservation of representative, selected prairie areas is a practical …


Relating The Out-Of-Doors To The Indoors In Teaching Biology, H.E. Jaques Jan 1945

Relating The Out-Of-Doors To The Indoors In Teaching Biology, H.E. Jaques

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Knowing the names of plants and animals and their phylogenetic relationship to each other is highly essential for success in any field of biological study. In spite of the immense numbers of species of plants and animals, it is surprising how much can be accomplished in learning to recognize the common species of a region, by giving it some consistent attention. It would seem that plant and animal recognition should have a fairly large place in nature study work in the grades and m biology classes in high school. Such work is easily within the ability of students of that …

Charts And Pictures As Aids In Teaching Students To Use Identification Keys, H. E. Jacques Jan 1938

Charts And Pictures As Aids In Teaching Students To Use Identification Keys, H. E. Jacques

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

To do any task well, aims and purposes need to be clearly defined. The application of Biology, like many other subjects, is two-fold; professional and cultural. The majority of the students pursuing biological studies in our schools will never make a direct application of this knowledge in a professional way. On the other hand, cultural ideas secured from the field prove just as valuable to the professional biologist as to those who are interested only in broadening their experiences. Cultural interests for all, plus technical excellence for the minority who plan to make definite use of biology in their life …
