Ethanol on Fermentation Rates In this lab we examined how the rate of fermentation is influenced by the type of substrate‚ and activators and inhibitors. We used four fermentation tubes in which we separately combined yeast with MgSO4‚ pyruvate‚ ethanol‚ and glucose. At five minute intervals we recorded the volume of gas produced in each fermentation tube. Our results are displayed in the graph. Our results supported the prediction that pyruvate is an activator of fermentation. But our

Microbes are everywhere. Objectives: The experiment performed in the Lab was isolation of microbes taken from us and the environment. We used Nutrient Agar which is a growth medium used to culture microorganisms or small plants and Sabourand Dextrose Agar plates used to cultivate moulds and yeasts. The objective of it was to demonstrate that microbes are everywhere. We expected to find a variety of bacteria‚ moulds and yeasts. We were introduced to aseptic techniques as they help ensure that only

was to investigate the effect that a glucose concentration has on the rate of fermentation. This was done by adding a variety of different glucose concentration into a test tube‚ siting in a water bath. The carbon dioxide would be collected in the test tube and therefore would measure the rate of fermentation. The results parsley supported the hypothesis that‚ “If the glucose concentration increases‚ the rate of fermentation increases‚ therefore the more carbon dioxide released”. Background All cells

Design Experiment to investigate the effect of the concentration of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate on the rate of photosynthesis using Cobomba plant. Aim: The aim of the experiment is to investigate the effect of the concentration of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate (NaHCO3) on the rate of photosynthesis using a Cobomba plant. Hypothesis: As the concentration of NaHCO3 increases the rate of photosynthesis of the Cobomba plant should increase‚ as there is a greater presence of a carbon dioxide‚ obtained

Examination of Proteus Vulgaris by Carbohydrate Fermentation Tests Abstract: Some bacteria ferment certain carbohydrates‚ while producing acidic or gaseous products; this information can be utilized in order to identify bacteria (Morello and Granato‚ 2003). In order to test for carbohydrate fermentation‚ tubed broths‚ containing a Durham tube for trapping any gas formed when the broth is incubated‚ are utilized (Morello and Granato‚ 2003). After incubation‚ a color change indicates that

Mental Disorders in the Criminal Justice System Mental Disorders in the Criminal Justice System Abstract The purpose of this research is to identify and explore mental disorders in the criminal justice system. It has been said that there is a substantial increase in the number of offenders with mental disorders in the justice system‚ instead of them being sent to mental institutions where they can receive help. The mental health system agrees with this statement;

Fermentation Lab Introduction For bacteria and many single-celled protists fermentation is a common anaerobic pathway that the cells use to collect energy from carbohydrates to form ATP. The process for fermentation begins in the cytoplasm with a process called glycolysis‚ which converts one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate. When glycolysis is complete four ATP would be produced but the net yield would be two ATP taking into account the initial investment of two ATP

Research Paper Abstract A research paper abstract is often an integral part of a research paper writing assignments. Not all students will need to write abstracts; however‚ when a professor assigns a research paper abstract‚ students need to know how to write one effectively and succinctly. A research paper abstract is basically a recap of the content of a research paper. An abstract is usually one paragraph (depending on the size of the paper) that says what the paper is about in very clear terms

Abstract Art & Expressionism in America Abstract art expressionism is mostly known as the experimental‚ free expression‚ nonrepresentational painting marked by spontaneous expressions. Abstract became and intuitive painting technique producing a non-formal work of art characterized by non-symmetrical lines. Abstract Expressionism is not only a term used to describe a form of art; it’s also a New York school of painting recognizable by free spirited created abstractions. Abstract Expressionism later

INTRODUCTION Abstract Algebra is more rightly considered meta-mathematics than mathematics proper‚ because it can be used to describe the structures that exist within mathematics from a general standpoint. The basic notions of Groups‚ Rings‚ Fields‚ and Algebraic Extensions provide a framework from which to examine almost all of mathematics. These notions serve as unifying concepts that interlace such seemingly disparate subjects as geometry‚ analysis‚ number theory‚ topology and even applied
