experiment we compared the hemagglutination reaction of control Con A solution at 2 mg/ml in Con A buffer with the hemagglutination reaction of your own purified Con A sample that you diluted previously at 2 mg/ml in Con A buffer. The purpose of this lab was to determine the strength of the reaction by performing serial dilutions on both the Con A sample and the control Con A sample‚ and determine through observations whether or not addition of galactose or mannose will inhibit this reaction. I hypothesize

Effect of Enzyme and Substrate Concentration on Reaction Rate by Zachary A. Poché Biology 155 Laboratory October 15‚ 2014 Lab Partners: Cade White‚ Hannah Ragas‚ Russheka Aremillion ABSTRACT In order to increase the reaction rate‚ substrates attach to the active site of enzymes which decrease the activation energy required to convert substrates to products. We examined the effect of enzyme concentration and substrate concentration on the overall rate of the reaction. To determine

weigh less due to osmosis. Our null hypothesis was: If the pH level of a solution is either acidic or basic‚ then it will have no effect on the weight. The independent variable was the different solutions of different pH values. The dependent variable was the weight of the potato‚ which was measured in grams. The baseline of this experiment is the weight of the potato when in the milk solution because milk has a neutral pH. The controls in this experiment are that each sample had

Lab 5 DECOMPOSITION (Nov 2‚ 2011) Introduction: Decomposition is the breakdown of organic material into its smaller molecules and elements. (This term is generally considered as a biotic process but one may find it also used to describe an abiotic process‚ e.g.‚ due to weathering.) The decomposing organisms may use the release of elements for nutrients and by breaking apart the carbon-carbon bonds in organic matter this can release energy for them. These smaller molecules and nutrient elements

Explain the mechanism of communication‚ control‚ and integration in the endocrine system. The Endocrine systems mechanism of communication is sending messages from the cells of the endocrine and nervous system to the cells in other systems by releasing hormones. The Endocrine systems control feature is part of negative feedback because it

Lab 1 Diffusion‚ Osmosis‚ and Water Potential of Glucose Problem: What effects will glucose have on diffusion‚ osmosis‚ and water potential? Background: All living things have certain requirements they must satisfy in order to remain alive. These include exchanging gases (usually CO2 and O2)‚ taking in water‚ minerals‚ and food‚ and eliminating wastes. These tasks ultimately occur at the cellular level‚ and require that molecules move through the membrane that surrounds the cell. There

Fatmata Diffusion Abstract dialysis tubing is‚ made of cellulose because it’s a selectively permeable membrane. In this experiment‚ we are testing to see if the solution in the beaker moves into the dialysis bag. Which because of that‚ Introduction Diffusion and osmosis are two types of transport mechanisms. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from areas of higher concentrations to areas of lower concentration until the molecules are evenly distributed through the area. Osmosis is the dispersion

Iso osmolar can be known as the point in which the substance of experimentation faces no change despite the amount of solute inside the solvent( because the solvent and solute concentration is equal. This is where the line on a graph would cross on the
