Lab #5: Introduction to Metasploit on Kali Linux Team: CRYPTERS 1 d. Why is it usually a bad idea to operate in the Linux environment as root? If you are unfamiliar with the concept of the root user, do a quick google search. It is always a good practice on any operating system to run your applications on a user level and leave the administrative tasks to the root user, and only on a per-need basis. Applications are meant to be run by users with non-administrative privileges.(Power December 4, 2010)…
Interactive Question 7.2 Cite some experimental evidence that indicates that membrane proteins drift. A good form of experimental evidence is Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching, aka FRAP. In the FRAP process, membrane proteins are labelled with a green fluorescent protein, and part of the plasma membrane is “bleached” with a laser, causing them to lose their fluorescence. The part that was bleached will eventually become fluorescent again, as molecules drift in by diffusion.…
A sketch or view of test setup and arrangement of gauges and loading protocol should be presented. It is not clear the location of gauge 1 and 2 listed in Figure 11. Why the results of two mentioned gauges are presented in comparison with analytical one? Are the both of them comparable? Why the results of two gauges are different?…
Results In the lab, 478 trials were conducted using a total of 956 crickets. The 478 pairs resulted in 264 wins for the resident cricket and 214 wins for the intruding crickets. These results produced a chi squared value of 5.230. The p-value calculated from this lab was .022.…
Following the Ways of the Scientific Method The scientists solved the Elkhorn Coral mystery using the scientific method by following each step of the method to come to a conclusion as to what is killing the coral. The followed the steps precisely so that would not make any errors during their trials. They started with the first step of the scientific method, making an observation.…
Instructions: Buddy Lab - Physical and Chemical Change You’ve learned a lot about matter lately and now is your chance to teach someone younger about what you know. Your job is to design a lab that will help a primary student experiment and understand what physical and chemical changes are. Follow the guiding questions below to help you create your lab. Question:…
The independent variable in this experiment is appearance of the red square, and be able to respond fast as possible. This was measured by valid, neutral, and invalid.…
The paper evaluates research article that discusses current research of how bilingual advantages in executive function depend on characteristics of the participants and features of the tasks. Compared with monolinguals, bilinguals show superior performance in versions of such tasks as the Simon task, Stroop task, and flanker task. All these tasks require resolving conflict from distracting cues, switching efficiently between types of trials, and maintaining rules in working memory, all components of executive functioning system. Three main questions considered in the research.…
The in the article, “Paradoxical Effects of Thought Suppression” researchers explored the hypothesis that thought suppression is difficult for people to do and that suppressed thoughts can return to consciousness with minimal prompting, perhaps becoming obsessive preoccupations (Wegner, 1987.) To explore this, they conducted two experiments where they asked subjects to verbalize their stream of consciousness for 5 minute periods, asked subject groups to alternatively express or suppress thoughts of a “white bear”, and record occurrences of “white bear” thoughts during each period via verbal mentions or bell rings. Researchers found that thought suppression attempts resulted in a rebound effect that was especially pronounced when subjects were…
Studies done by Stroop (1992) and Windes (1968) suggest that the Stroop effect occurs when performing a naming task which impacts reaction times. In the Stroop (1992) study found that color naming had a slower reaction time when the color words were printed in a different color, but even slower reaction time occurred when the color and word were completely separate from one another. The current experiment used Stroop task to determine the impacts of reaction times to test the hypothesis to see if there is a significant difference between the reaction times amongst the four levels of the Stroop task. Specifically seeing if the naming of color words printed in the same color had faster reaction times than naming the color of word printed in different…
This effect refers to the increase in response delay to name the color of ink in which a word is printed when that word is an incompatible color name relative to when it is an unrelated word or color patch. MacLeod (1991) wrote more than 700 articles that either directly examined the Stroop effect or used it as a tool to investigate other cognitive processes. The Stroop task has been especially useful as a tool to investigate stroop interference processes. The conflict between the relevant (color of the word) and irrelevant…
In the test, subjects are shown the names of colors in colored letters. The color of the letters does not match the name of the color given. It takes mental effort and concentration to see past the word and just identify the color of the word. The authors used this test to identify how racist decisions affected the results of the test. Thus, the dependent variable was cognitive ability and it was measured by the Stroop test.…
As we have often seen in movies and television shows depicting the criminal justice system, an eyewitness is shown picking a culprit out of a police lineup. However, what movies and television shows do not address is how often mistakes are made with eyewitness identifications. In actual police lineups, eyewitness accounts are relied upon in our criminal justice system as a key tool to identify, convict, and charge individuals. The hope is that these identifications are accurate. Eyewitness identifications have been shown to sometimes be inaccurate (Ross, Read, & Togolia, 1994).…
Purpose: The overall goal of this lab was to perform a procedure on E. Coli which involved transferring genes that encoded for the green fluorescent protein into E. Coli to see if the transferred genes would make a difference on the growth and whether or not the bacteria would glow under UV light. Hypothesis: If the bacteria with the pGLO plasmid was grown on a plate containing LB and ampicillin then the bacteria will grow but not glow under UV light. If the bacteria with the pGLO plasmid was grown on a plate containing LB, ampicillin, and arabinose then it will be able to grow and glow under UV light. If the bacteria without pGLO plasmid was grown on a plate containing LB and ampicillin then it will not be able to grow or glow under UV light.…
