Vaishnavi Kothapalli Mrs. Manning Honors Biology 30 November 2012 TITLE: The Reaction Rate of Catalase in Various Concentrations of Hydrogen Peroxide QUESTION: How long does the catalase take to float to the top of a cup filled with different amounts of hydrogen peroxide concentration? PREDICTION: A prediction that can be made for this experiment is that the higher the concentration‚ the faster time it takes the catalase to react with the solution. As the concentration increases from

Biology 102 Lab Report: Ventilation and Oxygen Consumption in Fish Methods: The lab consists of two experiments repeated over a period one hour with fifteen minutes interval‚ in order to determine the effect of weight and temperature on ventilation and oxygen consumption of Carassius auratus‚ commonly known as goldfish. Each experiment was carried out by five groups. Measurement of ventilation was determined by recording operculum movement of the fish. Oxygen consumption was measured using oxygen

would equal to the total number of teeth present in the mammal. The dental formulas for these three species: coyote (Canis latrans)‚ deer (Odocoileus virginanus)‚ and human (Homo sapien) are all different. The coyote had the dental formula of 3-1-4-2/3-1-4-2 (x2)‚ which produced the total of 40 teeth. The deer had the dental formula of 0-0-3-3/3-1-3-3 (x2)‚ which equaled to 32 teeth. The human species had a smaller number of teeth with the dental formula being 2-1-2-2/2-1-2-2 (x2)‚ which produced a

Lab #5-Enzymes NAME DATE LAB PERIOD Introduction Enzymes are proteins‚ though highly complex and diverse‚ they serve one basic function; to work as an organic catalyst. A catalyst‚ as defined by Merriam-Webster dictionary‚ is a substance that enables a chemical reaction to proceed at a usually faster rate ("Catalyst-Definition and more."). They function by reducing the activation energy‚ or energy required to start a reaction. The way enzymatic reaction works cannot be altered‚ but the

Effect of Temperature on Enzymes ~Abstract~ In this experiment the effect of different types of temperatures on enzyme activity was examined. The temperature baths that were used to test the difference in enzyme activity on fresh liver were; 4 °C‚ room temperature which was 22°C‚ body temperature which is 37°C‚ and 77°C. The total time of each trial was 2 and a half minute‚ 1 minute for the H2O2 to acclimatize to the temperature‚ 1 and a half minutes for the reaction to occur. Catalase causes Hydrogen

Biomolecules - Biology Unit 3 What is a Biomolecule? Organic molecule made by living organisms Organic Molecules: contain carbon considered the “chemicals of life” Inorganic Molecules: Do not contain carbon Consist mostly of: carbon (c)‚ hydrogen (h)‚ oxygen (o) Monomers vs. Polymers Monomers: single-molecule that may react with similar molecules to form a chain Polymers: a chain of many monomers that are chemically bonded together
