Aim: To investigate whether living organisms by respiration convert oxygen into Co2. Introduction: The process by which organisms release energy from food is called respiration. There are two categories of respiration‚ depending on the amount of oxygen available. Aerobic respiration is the most common type of respiration. It requires oxygen- the reason why you are breathing right now. Anaerobic respiration requires no oxygen. The experiment which will take place is the aerobic respiration. Earthworms

Week 4 Assignment – Organism Physiology University of Phoenix BIO/101 - Principles of Biology Professor: Travis Kibota May 20‚ 2013 Introduction This paper will clearly display a diagram of an organism of the student’s choice. This organism will display all of the main structures of the primary organs by labeling. Careful research will exhibit the concepts of natural selection and adaptation. Selected organism will address the proper concepts that apply. Three physiological adaptions

(4) uses of energy in biological processes (B); active transport; muscle contraction; nerve transmission; synthesis; translocation; nitrogen fixation; receptors ENERGY TRANSFERS WHICH TAKE PLACE INSIDE LIVING ORGANISMS Living organisms including all plants and animals require energy for their cellular processes. In biological processes‚ the immediate energy source is often in the form adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The nucleotide ATP maintains both catabolic and anabolic reactions. An example of

Weathering- is a process where rocks are physically broken down or chemically modified by climatic or biological elements. Works through 3 processes: physical weathering‚ chemical weathering and biological weathering. Physical weathering- is the breaking down of rocks into smaller fragments brought about by physical (mechanical) forces. Works through 4 processes: alternate expansion and contraction‚ frost action‚ pressure release and salt crystal growth. Alternate expansion and contraction- this

What are the consequences of the removal/extinction of an organism from the food web? The extinction or removal of an organism from a food web can affect different organisms directly or indirectly‚ depending on the trophic level the organism is and in what role they play in the food web‚ if it is carnivore‚ herbivore‚ omnivore‚ etc. Extinction has also been important for evolution in food webs. Some food webs are generated from the reaction with repeated extinctions‚ and the extinction rate is

How carbon dioxide may affect organisms directly and indirectly Carbon dioxide is a molecule that is essential to the survival of nearly all organisms on our planet‚ as in some way or another they rely on carbon dioxide or its products to provide them with respiratory substrates. However‚ as I will elaborate later‚ carbon dioxide also has adverse effects on organisms. Carbon dioxide primarily affects all organisms as it is essential for the process of photosynthesis‚ in which organic compounds

How Acid Rain Affects Organisms in Aquatic Biomes Through the advancement of technology‚ the issue of the air surrounding the earth might have been one of the most often matters to be brought up and discussed among scientists and engineers. Acid rain is one of the more serious environmental problems and it is closely related to the air pollution. Nowadays‚ it has affected large part of US‚ Europe and Canada. People start to be concerned about acid rain since it is getting worse in the passed

Ways in which living organisms differ from each other There are many ways in which living organisms differ from each other. In this essay I will discuss the various ways of which this occurs. There are two different types of cells‚ there are prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Within eukaryotes there are different structures and similar structures. For example; in a plant cell they have a nucleus‚ mitochondria an ER‚ and a Golgi body. These are the same as animal cells; however they differ because plants
