The Advanced Placement® Biology Laboratory Manual recommends that each student group determine DO of water samples at three different temperatures: 0–5°C, 20°C, and 30°C. You can save time by assigning each group one temperature of water for DO determination and taking class averages. AP Biology Lab Manual for Teachers — Supplement Lab 1: Diffusion and Osmosis Overview The information will assist teachers with aspects of Lab 1 that are not necessarily addressed in the Lab Manual. These suggestions are provided to enhance the students' overall lab experience as well as their conceptual understanding. Lab Manual Overview The AP Biology Investigative Labs: An Inquiry-Based Approach was developed in collaboration with AP teachers, inquiry experts, and higher education faculty to support teachers in implementing the new focus on inquiry in their biology labs.
