(1 pt) In your calibration measurements you find that the bead stiffness is toohigh and that you are losing sensitivity. What is one way in which the beadstiffness can be reduced so that your measurements become more sensitive? b. (1 pt) True/False. Optical trapping is only appropriate on subcellular scales (i.e.,purified proteins and structures). c.

This Quiz is Worth 5 BONUS Points! Please make sure to do the following, then follow instructions at the bottom: Student ID: You will first show the webcam your photo ID in the start-up sequence. Work area/Desktop: Use the webcam to show that your work area/desktop (where you will be writing) is clear and only allowed resources are present. If you are using a webcam built into a monitor then just tip the monitor forward to show work area. Room Environment: Show the 360 degree room environment and wall/area directly behind the computer where your eyes might wander to show that there are no resources present there. If you are using a webcam built into a monitor that you cannot pick up, then use a mirror to show the area behind the monitor and around the room. Laptop Surface: Use a mirror to show the surface of your laptop is clean. Power Off Phone: Show the webcam your cell phone, then you powering it down to turn it off, then setting it at a location BEHIND YOU where it would be obvious if you got up to access it. Periodic Table: Show your printed Periodic Table handout with no color-coding or additional writing on it (printed front and BLANK back). When showing papers, hold for a count of 1-2-3 before flipping over, then hold for a count of 1-2-3. None of the pieces of paper in Steps 6-8 should be folded! Conversion Table:  show your conversion table (printed front and BLANK back) with the metric and English conversions.  When showing papers, hold for a count of 1-2-3 before flipping over, then hold for a count of 1-2-3. Scratch Paper: Show your scratch paper (front and back). Neither piece of paper should be folded!  When showing papers, hold for a count of 1-2-3 before flipping over, then hold for a count of 1-2-3. Calculator: Remove the case/lid/instructions from your calculator and show yourself setting those aside with your phone. Show your calculator (front and back). Hold for a count of 1-2-3 for each side. It should NOT be a graphing calculator.  If you are using the calculator built into Honorlock instead, just verbally say so for this part (so there should NOT be a calculator at or near your work area/desktop).  An extra 15 minutes has been added to the exam time to cover the time it takes to do these pre-steps. I verify I have followed the instructions above as evidenced in the Honorlock video.  I also understand that if any step is left out, a penalty could be incurred.  NOTE: Please copy the verification statement written above as your answer for this question.  I’ll have to manually grade by checking the video.
