The Diameter of the Bomb‚ focuses on the impact war has on humanity. On a more complex level‚ the poem illustrates how the desensitization of war and its results drive the world into hopelessness. Amichai begins his poem using a statistical analysis of the bomb. The bomb begins as a mechanical and emotionless object that is represented as holding limited capacity for destruction. It is described as having a thirty centimeter diameter and an effective range of about seven meters. The effects of the

The poem‚ “Diameter of the Bomb”‚ written by Yehuda Amichai‚ illustrates how the intuition of war and a single act of violence resounds through history‚ encompassing the whole world and God with it. The poem initiates as the poet enumerates the characteristics of the bomb. Details about the size of the bomb‚ its effective radius‚ the number of casualties‚ then slowly the details become people‚ the statistics turn human‚ and we are shown the real human cost of terrorism. The bomb is epitomized

Title : THE EFFECT OF PH ON THE ACTIVITY OF CATALASE Aim : To study the effect of pH on the activity of catalase. Introduction : Catalase‚ an enzyme found in many different tissues‚ catalyses the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. 2 H202 → 2H20 + O2 Hydrogen peroxide is a toxic substance that can be formed during aerobic respiration and catalase removes this product. The activity of catalase can be measured by finding the rate of oxygen release from hydrogen peroxide

Hypothesis: My hypothesis for this experiment is that temperatures near body temperature is when enzyme activity will be at its highest. I believe this will occur because in our body‚ enzymes

Investigating the Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Almost all chemical reactions that occur in living organisms are catalyzed by enzymes. Many factors in a cell’s environment affect the action of an enzyme. In this investigation‚ you will design an experiment to determine the effect of temperature on an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. You will complete an entire lab write-up using the CHS LAB REPORT FORMAT. Fundamental Question How does temperature affect the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed

Date: 03/20/2013 Lab: # Purpose of this lab: To test for the effects of temperature on catalase activity. Introduction: Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts and help complex reactions to occur everywhere in life. Enzymes affect a chemical reaction by acting as a catalyst‚ which is to say‚ it speeds up the reaction. However‚ extreme ph and temperature hinders enzyme function. Optimal activity of an enzyme is the optimal environment that an enzyme requires to function

We are studying the effect of pH on catalase activity. Catalase by scavenging hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen is an important enzyme of cell defense mechanisms against oxidative stress in all living organisms (Dat et al.‚ 2003). Cells use catalase because it is the most efficient enzyme as an antioxidative enzyme which lowers hydrogen peroxide or superoxide to accumulate to toxic levels in plant growth (Bowler et al. 1992). The formula that involves catalase as the enzyme is . pH is a measure
