Terms to Know
• INTERmolecular Forces – Weak forces of attraction between
molecules (i.e. dispersion, dipole-dipole, dipole-induced dipole, hydrogen bonds)
– Much weaker than intramolecular forces
• Van der Waals Forces– Forces that arise when a temporary
dipole in a non-polar molecule induces a dipole in an adjacent non-polar molecule

Station 4—SEM ImagesStudents study SEM Images, read, and answer questions about gecko and spider morphology
Jumping Spider
Why do geckos/spiders have so many setae?they may not all have the correct orientation
How do they detach?their setae need to be at an angle greater than 30o
If all of a gecko’s setae were stuck to a surface at the same time, how many pounds would it be able to support? 286 lbs!
Why do pictures “c” & “d” for the Jumping spider look different? the bottom of the setae has a lot more setules than the
top
Gecko
What is the advantage to having flat ends?greater surface area

spiders
Station 5 — Spider Student?
y = m (x) + blog (NA) = 0.699 log (m) + 13.8
How many setae/100 mm2 a 130 lb person would need to stick to a wall?
![Page 21: Gecko stations lesson ppt](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081505/554c9a66b4c905c10d8b4e0f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The equation for the best-fit line on the graph can be written:
log of log of setae per 100 mm2 log of mass of organism in grams How many setae/100 mm2 would a 130 lb person need to stick to a wall? 1st: Convert 130 lbs to grams. mass = 59090 g 2nd: Substitute this value into the equation of the straight line.
NA = 1.37 X 1017setae/100 mm2
3rd: Convert this to setae / 100 cm2
NA = 1.37 X 1023 setae / 100 cm2
