Germinated Pea Lab Report
Before completing the lab I had the question whether which germinated or non germinated pea would consume more oxygen and from that question I made the hypothesis that if the garden pea has more water saturated in it than the other dry peas it would consume more oxygen because water is a key molecule in the facilitation of certain reaction and processes especially in cellular respiration. In conclusion, the lab demonstrated many critical things relating to cellular respiration. It showed that the rates of cellular respiration are greater in germinating peas than in non-germinating pea which does support my hypothesis. In another experiment I discovered about germinating peas vs non germinated peas showed similar results. The only difference

    In the lab with germinated and dry peas along with glass beads, determining the rate of respiration in each different type of seed was the goal. The hypothesis stated that since the germinated peas were still alive, they would contain a higher rate of respiration needed to remain healthy compared to the dried peas and glass beads.…

    Lima Bean Lab Report

    The purpose of this lab was to explore the growth and developmental differences in different liquids when exposed to a lima bean over the course of 10 days. by looking at the results it is evidence that the pond water is the greatest factor of liquids compared to milk and sprite. My hypothesis of pond water being the best liquid to grow a lima bean plant was correct the lima bean had grown to 13 centimeters but while doing this experiment I was surprised with the results of milk hoping it to be better and hoping for more growth due to its nutrient content before completing this lab I had the impression that milk would be the second most growth in the plants due to it protein and nutrient content. But I believe that these results were not…

    Examining the activity rate using DCIP and a spectrophotometer of succinate dehydrogenase isolated from Brassica oleracea mitochondria via mechanical disruption and differential centrifugation Introduction Mitochondria are important cellular organelles located in the cytosol of cells and is believed to have originated through an endosymbiotic relationship. The unique double layered membrane structure is responsible for the production of the primary energy currency of the cell; adenosine triphosphate or ATP. Small amounts of ATP that the cell can immediately use as an energy source are available during glycolysis of glucose to pyruvate, but the amount of ATP derived from pyruvate can be greatly increased through further processing. Through reduction-oxidation reactions and the electron…

    Lima Bean Lab Report

    Lima beans are edible flat whitish beans and are good to use for any experiment because they represent the human body in that they both go through all of the same processes of growth and development. This lab uses lima beans in order to determine whether they were viable or not. If a bean is viable, it means that it is alive: able to grow and develop. The two ways to find out whether a bean is viable or not, are a tetrazolium test and germination test. Tetrazolium is a chemical that turns red in the presence of hydrogen ions. All living organisms release hydrogen ions every day and therefore, it was possible to see whether the lima beans were viable or not using tetrazolium. This is a result…

    This report discusses an experiment to study the rate of aerobic cellular respiration in aquatic organisms which are Elodea (aquatic plant), Snail, and Goldfish, by measuring carbon dioxide production. Because ectothermic organisms (Elodea, snail, and goldfish) were placed in completely covered beaker, each organism would produce different amount of carbon dioxide. The objective of the experiment is to measure carbon dioxide production in three aquatic organisms, and to determine and compare the rate of cellular respiration in each organism. Aerobic respiration is the process which body obtains energy by using glucose + oxygen; this reaction takes place in mitochondrion in a cell; And the result of the reaction are carbon dioxide, water, and energy in the form of ATP ( adenosine triphosphate) (Hoefnagels, 2012). According to Biology 6th Edition, plants use light to convert atmospheric carbon (CO2) into carbohydrate (Johnson, 204). So I predicted snail would respire at the fastest rate and produce more CO2 because its weight was heavier than other two…

    What happens when a person of one culture tries to enter another one completely different? Our cultural background has a huge influence on how we see the world. It's a very complicated task for these people to get involved in a completely different environment than the one they are used to, since they were raised one way they see the world in a particular way. For example; the Muslims that have a totally different culture than ours think that we live among sin because of how we dress, the things that we do, etc. On the other hand us Americans are a bit more open minded because of our very extended cultural mixture.…

    In this lab the rate of germination in relation to temperature was observed testing the hypothesis, if the seeds are exposed to cold temperatures then they will not germinate. In the standard germination test a total of one hundred corn seeds were divided into four groups of twenty-five and each group was used to make a ragdoll. The rag dolls were germinated in room temperature. In the cold test one hundred corn seeds were placed on four layers of moist paper towels in the bottom of a metal tray, covered in moist soil and then were placed outside for eight days. After eight days they were allowed to germinate at room temperature for six days.…

    The goal of this experiment was to explore how temperature would influence the rate of cellular respiration of beans. It was hypothesized that as the temperature of the beans increased, the rate of cellular respiration would increase as well. In this experiment, the independent variable was the temperature, which gradually increased as time went by, and the dependent variable was the rate of cellular respiration, which was shown by the change in the amount of CO2 and O2 in the container. During the experiment, 25 cooled beans were put into a breaker, and another 25 cooled beans were put into a plastic container. Then, a temperature sensor was put into the breaker to measure the change in temperature of the beans, and two gas pressure sensors…
