Resting metabolic rate can vary with age independently from body mass changes in the Colorado potato beetle‚ Leptinotarsa decemlineata. Abstract A study was done by Saija Pironine‚ leena Lindstrom‚ and Anne Lyytinen in the Journal of Insect Physiology‚ to investigate the age dependence of resting metabolic rate in Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsadecemlineata) from adult emergence until age 10 days. In their hypothesis they expected to see a bell shaped pattern in metabolic rate with adult age

was to evaluate absorbance and the reaction rate of an enzyme‚ ’-amylase in starch-iodine solution. We will be testing the relationship between enzymatic reaction affected by temperature and pH. Through the testing the enzyme at different temperatures‚ and different pH levels; it would determine at which temperature and pH level the enzyme worked the most efficiently. Analyzing absorbance of the solutions with spectrophotometery will determine the reaction rate. To test the optimal pH‚ the starch

Formal Laboratory Report The Most Effective Antacid for the Neutralization of the Stomach Author: Kyler L. Gray 11 October 2017 Abstract: Stomach acid builds up can cause irritation and immense pain to individuals. Luckily‚ antacid tablets are readily available and can be found almost anywhere. However‚ because of there ready availability‚ there are many brands with many different effects. This experiment aimed to determine which antacid tablet was the most effective.

increase the reaction rate. This will result in the particles colliding more frequently and increasing the speed of the reaction. Also when they have more energy there will be more chance of the collisions being successful because the activation energy will be attainable. Hypothesis: In a reaction between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid‚ the products calcium chloride‚ carbon dioxide and water are formed. I predict that the higher temperature of HCl acid‚ the higher the reaction rate will be

SONA 2013: REACTION PAPER State of the Nation Address (SONA) is an annual address made by the president with regarding to the status of our nation‚ the accomplishments he made and his plan for the future of our country. Last Monday‚ July 22‚ 2013 President Benigno Aquino III made his 4th SONA at Batasang Pambansa Complex. In his SONA he discussed a lot of things regarding to the economics initiatives‚ peace and welfare and tackling of corruption. For me President Benigno Aquino III did a good

between the two metals in the metal sulfate solution of the electrolyte. In order for a chemical reaction to take place‚ the reactants must collide. The collision between the molecules in a chemical reaction provides the kinetic energy needed to break the necessary bonds so that new bonds can be formed. Thus‚ increasing the concentration of the anode‚ zinc sulfate‚ will increases the rate of reaction for oxidation because there are more zinc ions in the new concentration‚ which would also increase

Introduction Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP) In 1988‚ the government launched the CARP through Republic Act (RA) 6657‚ seeking the distribution of some 10M hectares of agricultural lands to farmers and regular farm workers. The government also directed specific agencies to provide the required support services and other factors needed to ensure socio-economic upliftment of the lives of the beneficiaries through Executive Order (EO) No. 229. The DTI’s participation in the CARP was

Kinetics of the Persulfate – iodide Clock Reaction The purpose of this experiment is to determine the rate law and the activation energy for the reaction between persulfate ion‚ S2O82-‚ and iodide ion‚ I-: S2O82-(aq) + 2 I-(aq) 2 SO42-(aq) + I2(aq) The rate law can be written as Reaction rate = (1) Where m and n are the orders with respect to S2O82- and I-‚ respectively‚ and k is the rate constant. Determining the rate law involves determining the values of m and

The purpose of this lab was to find my and my fellow classmates resting heart rate and record it. There were seven people in the class and we all participated in this study. There are four places to check heart rate and they are in your wrist‚ the inside of your elbow‚ the side of your neck‚ or the top of your foot. Everyone used the wrist or their radial artery. We used our middle and index fingers to gently feel for the radial artery in each others pulse. I then counted the pulse for 10 seconds

Investigating the Effect of Concentration on the Rate of Enzyme Catalysed Reaction To investigate the effect of concentration on the rate of enzyme catalysed reaction I must know all the factors that affect it in order to investigate in this. Here are all the factors: Temperature- Enzyme like it warm but not too hot. Enzymes are biological catalysts‚ which speed up chemical reactions. They work most efficiently at the optimum point (37°C). If they are below 37°C they will work
