The Aim of this practical was to observe what effect temperature had on the permeability of the cell membrane. Introduction Located within the vacuole of beetroot cells is a red pigment call Betalains. Typically these pigments are contained within the cell vacuole by the tonoplast (vacuole membrane)‚ however When beetroot is heated these red pigments escape the vacuole. This experiment aims to explore the effect of temperature on the permeability of the cell membranes (i.e. Tonoplast)

Lab Report The effect of temperature on the reaction between Catalase and H2O2 Sarah AlShemesi In this experiment we’ll be exploring the effects of temperature on the reaction between Catalase and H2O2.We’ll be using five different temperatures to test this. The five different temperatures will be 10‚ 30‚ 50‚ 70 and 90 oC. We will use the liver as a source of Catalase. A 1 gram piece of liver will be inserted into a test tube with 2 cm3 of water‚ then 2 cm3 of H2O2 will be added. The Catalase

The problem that we are solving is “How does the temperature outside affect the speed and heart rate of the runner?” We chose this to investigate “How does the temperature outside affect the speed and heart rate of the runner?” because we both play sports that require lots of running (Track and Field and Soccer.) Therefore‚ when running track outdoors the weather at the beginning of the meet may be colder‚ than the end when it’s most likely hotter. As well as a soccer tournament‚ you may play a tournament

data. As evident in the table‚ the 10oC temperature is very accurate as the range was 0‚ resulting in an error percentage of 0%. However‚ the 35oC temperature had a no clear skew of results as indicated through the range‚ 14 and the error percentage‚ 161.47%‚ suggesting that the trials at this temperature were not very accurate as they were largely inconsistent. The 50oC also proved to have inaccuracies‚ however‚ not as significant as the previous temperature‚

Abstract This experiment was designed to answer the question does temperature affect the amount of osmosis? The hypothesis predicted was that the higher the temperature the more osmosis would occur‚ but too high the osmosis would halt due to enzyme and substrate overheating and losing shape. After research and class time it was concluded that osmosis is a passive transport and would not require energy or enzymes due to it going from high to low concentrations with the gradient

When a beetroot cell is exposed to various kinds of temperatures‚ its plasma membrane is affected and may change in structure resulting in the leaking of betacyanin. If the temperature changes‚ then I would expect to observe that there would be a change in the concentration of betacyanin that has leaked from a beetroot cell. In specific‚ at high temperatures‚ the phospholipids that make up the plasma membrane of the beet root cell become progressively more destabilized causing them to transform into

Hypothesis If we add and boil enzyme in L-Dopa‚ then the color will become darker because the temperature will denature some of the enzymes.
