Period 1 10/14/12 Enzyme lab Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up the process of chemical reactions. They are also proteins‚ and most enzymes activities occur within organism. They decrease activation energy‚ energy that is needed to start a chemical reaction. Enzymes are substrate specific substrates ending in "-ase"‚ enzymes ending in "-ase". External factors‚ such as temperature‚ pH‚ and concentration of the substrate‚ affect the enzymes activity in the lab‚ pectase and cellulase will

Experiment on Cellular respiration of Mung Beans Seeds with the Effects of Temperature Introduction: ATP is generated from aerobic respiration from the use of biosynthetic pathways. Glycolysis is where respiration starts in the cells and produces ATP‚ NADH‚ and 2 pyruvate molecules from the oxidation of six carbon carbohydrate and glucose. Even if oxygen is there or not‚ enzymes are mediated in the cytoplasm. The electron transport chain‚ chemiosmosis‚ and aerobic respiration use NADH molecule

Observance of Artificial Selection: Technical Study of Wisconsin Fast Plants 5th and 6th period AP Biology Due: 12/16/13 Abstract This experiment was used to explore the Theory of Evolution created by Charles Darwin. The use of natural selection was apparent in the artificial modification of an organism ’s traits which aided in this investigation. Through this experiment the Wisconsin Fast Plant was used. It is a fast-growing organism developed to improve the resistance to disease in

classroom assessment to support learning. However‚ the ‘accountability’ juggernaut was not for turning‚ even though the Blair dynasty’s clarion call of “Education! Education! Education!” had not yet begun to ring hollow. It was the day we decided to up the ante and make it our target to resurrect assessment by teachers‚ not to abandon testing‚ but to refocus assessment activities where they should be‚ on pupil learning. The King’s College pair had been long-term advocates of formative assessment

and familiarize ourselves with their taxonomic levels through the organism’s mechanisms of feeding‚ motility‚ and reproduction. Our group used the prior knowledge we possessed about the Hydra‚ Rotifer‚ Gammarus‚ and Planaria organisms to complete the lab. We knew that all of these small invertebrates have a freshwater habitat. Each organism differs in taxonomic levels from Genus to Species. We knew that the Hydra reproduces with one of two methods: 1) by “budding” which is an asexual method of reproduction
