Laboratory Report 4: Invertebrate Animals Section: I Table: 6 Date: September 26th‚ 2013 Introduction: In our group‚ our task was to observe the selected four invertebrates 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

Enzyme Catalysis Introduction: Enzymes are produced by living organisms as proteins. These enzymes perform as catalysts to bring about a chemical reaction. In fact‚ most reactions are catalyzed by enzymes during reactions in the cell or in the human body. A catalyst that enzymes pose ad are by definition substances that are capable of initiating or speeding up a chemical reaction. Catalyst are not a necessity during a chemical reaction‚ they are just used to speed up a chemical reaction. This event

Cavanaugh Lab: Tuesdays at 1pm Enzyme Kinetics Lab Introduction: Enzymes are proteins that will catalyze reactions to make the rate of the reaction occur faster than it would without. It can also make the reaction occur in the first place. Tyrosinase is an enzyme that has a variety of functions and activities. It produces pigments like melanin and others that would be apparent when a fruit is cut in half and it browns. (Bien-etre 3).There is that one function that stands out and the enzyme is continuously

The effect of time on enzyme reaction. Abstract: In this lab investigation we will observe how the amount of hydrogen peroxide is affected by catalase over time. The enzyme was added to 10 mL’s of hydrogen peroxide and observed over time to determine the relation between time and enzyme activity. The hypothesis stated that as time increased substrate would decrease. Therefore I predicted that at 60 seconds‚ there would be the least amount of H2O2. The enzyme activity mirrored my predictions

Lab 4 Quiz 1. Enzymes and what is their function? a. Enzyme: biological catalysts that regulate chemical reactions that occur in cells. Responsible for things such as converting food to energy‚ replace old damaged tissues‚ disposal of cellular waste products. Are responsible for lowering the activation energy. 2. Most enzymes are proteins with three-dimensional shapes determined by their amino acid sequence. 3. Substrate – is a reactant molecule that binds to the highly specific active site

Cardiovascular Endurance I did the 1 mile walk and my time was 17 minutes and 26 seconds. My heart rate at the end of my walk was 100 bpm. My VO2 max was a 48.72 and for my people are around my age that just ranked in the category of just good. I was not able to perform the 3 minute step test because of medical reasons. The benefits of the step test would be that there is not a lot of energy being exerted by the participants. Unlike running‚ stepping comes natural making this test less challenging

Lab Report: Animal Behavioral Diversity Biology 112 Lucas LLona 5-7-13 1) a. Based on background knowledge regarding beta fish‚ I believe that the male beta fish will be the first out of the two specimens to display any aggressive behavior. b. - Pectorals flap at rapid speeds when the beta fish is uncomfortable and appears agitated. - The gill cover expands in size when the beta fish is uncomfortable. - Caudal fin moves quickly when agitated and also determines how quickly the specimen

the outcome of enzyme activity Introduction In this project I will monitor the rate of activity of Catalase. Catalase is an Enzyme which in the right conditions catalyses the decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide into water and oxygen; 2H2O2 + Catalase >>> 2H2O + O2 Catalase is found in all cells and protects them from Hydrogen Peroxide which is a dangerous waste product that needs to be eliminated. Without Catalase living things could not survive. What are Enzymes? Enzymes are found in the

Introduction On Saturday morning of the 24th of October‚ there was report by an employee of a homicide incident on 4011 N. Central Ave‚ Phoenix‚ AZ. University Center building on the 3rd floor of Arizona State University. The victim was describe as a 24 year old Caucasian female‚ by the name of Kelly; who works as a programs coordinator for Arizona State University. The victim was working late hours as usual on a Friday night‚ she was on her office cubical. The body was found laying on the floor
