to determine the molarity of NaOH‚ we rinsed a burette with about 5ml of water and another 5ml of NaOH to prepare it for the experiment. We then measured exactly 25ml of the prepared KHP from the previous part into a 250ml Erlenmeyer flask and added 2 drops of the indicator‚ phenolphthalein. Next we filled the burette with the approximately 0.1 M NaOH so that our initial volume will be 0.0mls. We then started our titration by carefully pouring a little amount of the base into the prepared 25ml of

LAB 10: NAME: DaeNia La Rodé DATE: 25TH January‚ 2011. FORM CLASS: L6 3 SUBJECT: Biology TITLE: Enzymes AIM: To investigate the effect of substrate concentration on the enzyme amylase INTRODUCTION: Enzymes are perhaps one of the most important proteins of the human body. Enzymes such as amylase‚ an enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates‚ work by means of surface catalysis. In other words‚ the surface of the enzyme enables other molecules to react in a manner they would not be able to without

making the bacteria take on various phenotypic characteristics. Background Information: Genetic transformation is one of the most important processes in biotechnology. Essentially‚ genetic transformation involves the process where a cell (in this lab‚ a bacterial cell) takes up foreign DNA from its surroundings and incorporates it into its own DNA. This gene transfer is accomplished with the aid of a plasmid‚ a

Chapter 16 Notes The heart lies in the mediastinum and is surrounded by a doubled layered membrane called the pericardium. The outer most layer of the pericardium is called the fibrous pericardium‚ which anchors the heart to surrounding structures. The inner layer is called the serous pericardium and is composed of two layers. The outer portion is called the parietal pericardium‚ the inner portion is called the visceral pericardium (epicardium). Epicardium- outer most layer of the heart wall

BIOLOGY HSC NOTES MAINTAINING A BALANCE • Identify the role of enzymes in metabolism‚ describe their chemical composition and use a simple model to describe their specificity on substrates. Enzymes are protein molecules that allow the body to engage in chemical reactions‚ such as metabolism. There activities can be catalytic (being able to control the rate of either increasing/decreasing chemical reaction) Enzymes have a specific shape‚ and this shape must be intact‚ otherwise the effectiveness

Amazon Warrior Women 1. Who were the Amazon Warrior Women? A group of Women warriors thought to have settled around the Black Sea. Who mated with vanquished foes and only kept the female children they bore. 2. Where are references to the Amazons found? The first account was found in Homer’s ILIAD‚ an account of the Trojan War. Greek historian Herodotus talked about a group of women warriors in his writing around 5th or 6th century B.C. 3. What evidence is there that the Amazons may have existed

AP Biology Lab Four: Plant Pigments and Photosynthesis Abstract: The purpose of this lab is to separate and identify pigments and other molecules within plant cells by a process called chromatography. We will also be measuring the rate of photosynthesis in isolated chloroplasts. Beta carotene‚ the most abundant carotene in plants‚ is carried along near the solvent front because it is very soluble in the solvent being used and because it forms no hydrogen bonds with cellulose. Xanthophyll is found

An Enterotube II is a miniaturized multi-test system for rapid identification of enterbacteriaceae. We then evaluated the test results and generated a five-digit code for the unknown

Enzyme Activators and Inhibitors Lucia House AP Biology‚ Block 4 Mr. Trice October 18‚ 2012 Introduction: Metabolism is the totality of all of an organism’s chemical reactions. Chemical reactions occur due to enzymes‚ a substance which acts as a catalyst in driving chemical reactions in order to produce a desired product (Campbell and Reece‚ 2002). A catalyst is usually a protein; however‚ some catalytic molecules counter this generalization. A discovery made in the early nineteen- nineties
