BIOLOGY LAB REPORT (UNIT 7: ENZYMES) GENERAL Enzymes are protein that acts as catalyst‚ lowering the activation energy need for reactions to progress in cells. The reaction can still occur without the presence of the enzyme‚ but at a much slower rate. The activation energy is the minimum amount of energy need for a chemical reaction to occur‚ yielding from a given set of reactants. In enzymatic reactions‚ we have substrates which are reactants of reaction bound to an enzyme. While an active site

Makenzie Ann Cox October 22‚ 2014 Biology 1112.317 Lab Report Amounts of Carbon Dioxide/ Oxygen Animals are Producing/ Consuming Introduction Every cell needs a source of energy in order to perform their daily functions. However the process to get this energy is different for plant and animal cells. Plants cells undergo a process called photosynthesis where light energy from the sun is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. For animal cells‚ the process is known as cellular

Discussion The main findings of the present study were that the number of push up significantly in male than female‚ in contrast to the pulse rate‚ could be attributed at least partially to the greater aerobic fitness in male compared to the female students (see Figure 2). With thorough analysis of the results‚ the null hypothesis has been proven correct as there is no significant difference in the mean maximal pulse rate change of subjects who could do fewer than 20 push-ups and subjects

Abstract By working with physical isopods‚ ordinarily known as pill bugs‚ sow bugs or roly- polies‚ we tried whether these sowbugs favored a dark spot to a light place. Included in the lab are a few outlines and tables sketching out our aftereffects of the test. We measured recurrence

The Rate Of Photosynthesis: Lab report 1) Construct a graph of your data 2) Using the graph‚ estimate the time at which 50 percent of the leaf disks were floating on the surface. The point at which 50 percent of the leaf disks are floating will be you point of reference for future investigations Using the graph the estimated time that roughly 50% of the leaf disks were floating on the surface was around the 10th minute. At the 10th minute our number rose up to

EXPERIMENT NO. 1 INTRODUCTION TO LAB INSTRUMENTS. 1. BREADBOARD We should be familiar to the following things about a breadboard: * What is a breadboard and what is it used for? * How does it work? * Setting Up. * Limitations. What is a breadboard and what is it used for? A breadboard (or protoboard) is usually a construction base for prototyping of electronics. The term "breadboard" is commonly used to refer to a solderless breadboard (plugboard). It was designed by

HW Review for Photosynthesis exam: Due Monday March 28 Reminder your lab write up will be a next week. If your lab is this Friday you also will get a week to complete your full lab write-up. Sample questions: 1. twenty-five plants were placed in each of four closed containers and then exposed to light conditions shown in the data table below. All other environmental conditions were held constant for a period of 2 days. At the beginning of the investigation‚ the quantity of CO2 present in each closed

Bio Lab Report Erica Patterson September 10‚2013 Intro to cellular and molecular Biology Lab Abstract: In the Biology Laboratory Manual by Darrell S. Vodopich and Randy Moore are results to a similar experiment. The studied the hypothesis of carbon dioxide production by yeast fed sugar is not significantly different than the carbon dioxide production by the yeast fed in protein. Their hypothesis is the one that has helped formulate ours. We also will be answering the same to questions “What

Paramecium living in the intestines of termites breaks down the cellulose walls of wood fibers releasing proteins that are absorbed by the termites’ digestive system. Paramecium benefit by having an environment to thrive and they ingest the wood fibers for their own nutrition as well. 2. c. An important ecological effect

that one or both cells are dependent on each other (Campbell et al.‚ 2008). Strong evidence suggests that different types of photosynthetic cyanobacteria underwent endosymbiosis that evolved into different types of photosynthetic eukaryotes (Biology 108 Lab Manual 2012). During eukaryotic evolution‚ red algae and green algae led to five supergroups of eukaryotes through a process of secondary endosymbiosis (Campbell et al.‚ 2008). Three basic photosynthetic pigments: chlorophylls‚ carotenoids‚ and
