Experiment 5 Title: Membrane Permeability Objectives: 1. Define solvent‚ solute‚ solution‚ selectively permeable‚ diffusion‚ osmosis‚ concentration gradient‚ equilibrium‚ turgid‚ plasmolyzed‚ plasmolysis‚ turgor pressure‚ tonicity‚ hypertonic‚ isotonic‚ hypotonic; 2. Describe the effects of hypertonic‚ isotonic‚ and hypotonic solutions on Elodea leaf cells and onion scale leafs. Introduction: Membrane permeability is a quality of a cell’s plasma membrane that allows substances to pass in

Temperature effects on the growth of microorganisms Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effects that temperature has on three different organisms. Temperature is one of the most important environmental factors affecting growth and survival of microorganisms². The three organisms used where Escherichia coli‚ Pseudomonas fluorescens‚ and Bacillus stearothermophilis. Most bacteria grow within a particular temperature range. The minimum growth temperature is

Cell Surface Glycoprotein Receptor Analysis Using Concanavalin A Purpose: During this 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

Effect of Osmotic Stress and Temperature on Microbial Growth BIO 3400-002L – Microbiology Lab 1 Effect of Osmotic Stress and Temperature on Microbial Growth Luiz Felipe Isidoro ABSTRACT Evolution allowed primitive forms of life to develop proteins and enzymes that made it possible for life to evolve under environments with hostile conditions‚ such as high salt and heat. More specifically‚ some bacteria selected genes that code for peptides with stronger intermolecular forces‚ coping

"Cells‚ Cells" Original Rap by Ms. Quitmeyer Today’s the day were gonna learn about the cell If I teach it okay‚ you’ll know it very well So listen up 6th graders- -no room left for haters- lets talk about the building blocks of life- cells that make us. Chorus: Cells‚ cells they’re made of organelles Try to pull a fast one‚ the cytoplasm gels The nucleus takes over controllin’ everything The party don’t stop ’till the membrane blocks the scene Inside the vacuole we can float around

apron or lab coat to protect our eyes and clothes. As we are using enzymes and Hydrogen Peroxide we need to be extra careful‚ ensuring they don’t come into contact with our eyes‚ skin or clothes. Catalyse is an enzyme found in all living cells. It makes Hydrogen Peroxide decompose into water and Oxygen. We will be measuring the amount of Oxygen released from the Hydrogen Peroxide. In order to do this we will use a measuring cylinder. This piece of apparatus measures the amount of

test for the effects of temperature on catalase activity. Introduction: Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts and help complex reactions to occur everywhere in life. Enzymes affect a chemical reaction by acting as a catalyst‚ which is to say‚ it speeds up the reaction. However‚ extreme ph and temperature hinders enzyme function. Optimal activity of an enzyme is the optimal environment that an enzyme requires to function‚ which means having the optimum ph and temperature to catalyze a
