Lab Report Title: * Color reaction of starch when mixed with Iodine solution Introduction: Statement: * How would the varying solutions react when introduced with the Iodine solution? Hypothesis: * If a solution is rich in starch then it will react with iodine solution and change to a bluish-black color (looks Brown) Materials: Items: * 8 test tubes‚ pipet‚ iodine‚ onion juice‚ potato juice‚ sucrose solution‚ glucose solution‚ distilled water‚ fructose solution‚ starch solution

Enzymes are catalysts that speed up chemical reaction but are not themselves consumed or changed by the reaction. The cell’s biological catalysts are proteins. Proteins are made up of one or more polypeptide chains that are folded to make an active site‚ an area in which a material to be acted on by the enzyme‚ called the substrate‚ will fit. The temperature‚pH‚ the concentration of enzyme‚ and the concentration of substrate all affect the activity of the enzyme and the rate of the reaction. The

Enzymes- reduce the amount of energy required for the reactions they catalyse [accelerate]. -thus‚ increasing the rate of reactions that occur in living organisms. WITHOUT enzymes : metabolism would be so slow at body temp. that insufficient energy would be available to sustain life. -Many enzymes are “Intracellular”- used within the cell that produced them e.g. enzymes in respiration & photosynthesis -Others are “extracellular”-they act outside the

Lab Report (Effect of concentration on enzyme activity) Biology Noor Alawadhi 11- KC Introduction: An Enzyme is a protein‚ which is capable of starting a chemical reaction‚ which involves the formation or breakage of chemical bonds. A substrate is the surface or material on or from which an organism lives‚ grows‚ or obtains its nourishment. In this case it is hydrogen peroxide. This lab report will be explaining the experiment held to understand the effects of the changes in the amount of

structure of the membrane. Phospholipids form a bilayer‚ which is the basic structure of the membrane. Their non-polar tails form a barrier to most water soluble substances. Membrane proteins serves as channels for transport of metabolites‚ some act as enzymes or carriers‚ while some are receptors. Lastly carbohydrate molecules of the membrane are relatively short-chain polysaccharides‚ which has multiple functions‚ for example‚ cell-cell recognition and acting as receptor sites for chemical signals.

water with no chlorine. Clean an area of space you think is suitable‚ preferably lab tables. Take out 5 beakers. Take out an electric mass scale. Turn on electric mass scale (power button) and place a beaker on top of the scale. Make sure to only measure one beaker at a time. Wait till the digits on the screen slow down and stop at a number. The number it stopped at‚ that is the number you will right down in your lab book (that you will get out) as scrap notes. After you have measured each beaker

Name: Mugabe Rodrigue Class: Grade 11B Subject: Biology Topic: DNA Extraction From Onion Date: 20/1/2014 Introduction: DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the hereditary material in organisms. Nearly every cell in an organism has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus.The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A)‚ guanine (G)‚ cytosine (C)‚ and thymine (T). The order‚ or sequence‚ of these bases determines the information available for

Enzyme Report Case 1 - Hereditary Fructose Intolerance 1 & 2. Enzymes take on a variety of roles in the human body at the cellular level. Specifically‚ they aid in the breakdown of macronutrients such as glucose and fructose so that the body can use them. Although reactions within the body would occur without enzymes‚ enzymes provide control because the reaction is not needed all of the time. Enzymes function in specific environments such as temperature or pH; some enzymes are specific

too long (shriveling is a common misconception)‚ a tea bag’s contents diffuse through the water. These are all examples of diffusion and osmosis. These phenomena happen everyday and people don’t realize what is actually happening. The purpose of the lab is to see the effects of diffusion and osmosis. In part B‚ the higher the concentration of solute‚ the higher the mass of the solution. Methods and Materials: For part A of the experiment‚ the following items are needed: Dialysis tubing‚ IKI solution

The purpose of this review paper is to discuss the effect of temperature on enzyme- catalyzed reactions. This is relevant because many diseases can be diagnosed and controlled by the processes of enzyme activity (Worthington 2015). If more information is not found about enzyme activity and how it is affected‚ many diseases may go undiagnosed and uncontrolled. Temperature is a type measurement that does not only consist of heat. It is the measurement of the mean kinetic energy of any group of particles
