Part B: Practical Report The Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Aim: To investigate how temperature effects the enzyme catalase. Hypothesis: If the temperature of water is increased then the enzyme will react quicker to form oxygen and water‚ when compared to cold water. Purpose: To design and conduct a plan of a practical about the effects of temperature on enzymatic activity with a partner. Introduction: An enzyme is a protein‚ which speeds up a specific chemical reaction without altering

Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to gain a complete understanding around the rate of cellular respiration within multicellular organisms‚ also to research and understand how to use a CO2. Background: Living systems require free energy and matter to maintain order‚ to reproduce‚ and grow. Energy deficiencies cause disruptions at the population and ecosystem levels as well. 1 mol of H2O produces 1 mol of CO2 through cellular respiration. Autotrophic organisms capture free energy from the environment

function. In photosynthesis and aerobic cellular respiration energy is being produced to cycle carbon between the functions. There is the function of maintaining life‚ helping aid chemical reactions‚ using the cell to help aid reation. All of these recycling processes help creates energy that is then in return used to aid their specific function. The life processes of nutrition and respiration are related to photosynthesis and Aerobic Cellular Respiration. All organisms use material from the outside

Yeasts’ capability of undergoing ethanol fermentation‚ its ability to ferment other sugars and artificial sweeteners‚ and how lactase influences yeasts ability to use lactose as a food source Kristina Naydenova Father Michael Goetz Purpose Part A: To investigate whether yeast has the ability to ferment glucose to produce carbon dioxide gas and ethanol. Part B: To investigate whether yeast has the ability to ferment other sugars and artificial sweeteners and how lactase influences their

Optimal Level of Sugar for Yeast to Produce the Largest Volume of CO2? Purpose The purpose of this lab is to determine whether there is an optimal level of sugar added to well water for the added yeast to produce the largest volume of carbon dioxide. Background Information What is yeast? Yeast‚ whose scientific name is Saccharomyces Cerevisiae‚ are single-celled organisms that are a part of the fungi group. Yeast is very capable of alcoholic fermentation‚ where yeast cells primarily break down

is the movement of water across a membrane. It always navigates to the area of the membrane with a higher solute concentration. We take a closer look at the effects of osmosis in this lab through the examination of red blood cells (sheep)‚ plant cells (elodea)‚ and active transport in yeast. Under the microscope‚ we can determine the effects on plant and animal cells exposed to hypotonic‚ hypertonic‚ and isotonic sodium chloride solutions. Plant cells have a cell wall; however‚ animal cells do not

The height difference that is used in the experiment varies from 0.5m. It adds by 0.5m in every drop height. A trend line showed on the graph and explains that the higher the drop height the higher the ball bounces back. When the height the ball bounces back is rounded the pattern of increasing the bounce height is by 0.2 m as shown‚ 0.7‚ 0.9‚ 1.0. The pattern of the bounce height explains this when the numbers are rounded. In each increasing drop height‚ the amount of m that the ball has bounced

of this lab is to determine an accurate time when the ice completely melts and the water starts to boil. The problem is which type of temperature change will result from heating ice to liquid‚ then boil (steam)? What will happen to the water after the boil? I hypothesise the water heats ice to liquid and then goes to simmer and boil. The independent variable is the hot plate changed to a burner itself. The dependent variable is what we are measuring is the time. The steps in the lab were to

In this lab‚ I was testing different temperatures and how it affects the time catalase takes for it to break down peroxide. The problem that i was investigating is how does temperature affect the time it takes for catalase to break down peroxide. My independent variable for this lab was the temperature of the solution the enzyme is in. My dependent variable in this experiment was rate of reaction or the amount of time it takes to sink and rise. My hypothesis is that if the temperature is higher than
