Section 1 Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to separate plant pigments using chromatography‚ calculate Rf values using the collected data‚ and study photosynthesis with isolated chloroplasts. Light energy Light energy Background Information (Activity A): In photosynthesis‚ plant cells convert light energy into chemical energy that is stored in sugars and other organic compounds. It is an endergonic and anaerobic reaction. Critical to the process is chlorophyll‚ the primary photosynthetic pigment

Enzyme Lab Report Introduction The objective of this experiment was to determine if changes in pH or temperature affected the activity of enzymes‚ specifically the enzyme sucrase. Enzymes are protein molecules that act as biological catalysts to increase the speed of the reaction or to lower the activation energy of that reaction. However‚ the activity of an enzyme can be affected by physical factors such as pH and temperature because these factors alter the structure of the enzyme (Freeman‚ 2011)

procedure was to take different food samples and use a device known as a calorimeter made from a can of aluminum‚ one large paper clips and a string of copper wire to measure the amount of thermal energy released during a reaction. By measuring the temperature difference before and after a reaction‚ the calorimeter indicates how much energy is released. From personal experiences I had previously learned about the release of energy from different types of food samples. For example‚ from a previous class

IB SL Biology Lab Molecular Biology: Transformation and Electrophoresis Christina Qi 2/16/07 Aim: How can a plasmid be engineered to include a foreign piece of DNA and how does gel electrophoresis separate DNA molecules present in a mixture? Hypothesis: If the pGLO plasmid is inserted into competent Escherichia coli cells‚ then the transformed bacteria will be resistant to ampicillin and will glow green under UV light. If samples of DNA are cut using certain restriction

experiment was to find out how temperature affects the enzymes activity. For example‚ in Humans if the temperature is too high‚ the individual’s brain enzymes can denature and cause life threatening problems. The opposite can occur as well‚ if the temperature is too low‚ hypothermia can occur and it can be dangerous (Wilson‚ 1996). In the experiment optimal conditions for fungal and bacterial amylase was measured as well. Discovering information‚ such as the optimal temperature‚ can help demonstrate the

certain parts of your body. In this activity you will investigate the distribution and sensitivity of the touch receptors in the human body. Procedure 1. Obtain 8 large paperclips‚ a ruler‚ and masking tape. 2. Bend paperclip to form a “U” or “V” shape so the ends are 1/2 centimeter apart. 3. Put masking tape across the “legs” of the paperclip to maintain the end distance of your caliper. Label the paperclip end distance on masking tape 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to make calipers

Influence of Concentration on the Activity of Amylase Title Influence of Concentration on the Activity of Amylase Abstract Does more or less concentration speed up the reaction rate of amylase in starch? In this experiment diluted solutions of amylase were created and then tested using a starch solution‚ I2KI for reaction times. The answer to the question was proved to be that more concentration of amylase speeds up the reaction time. Introduction The enzyme‚ amylase is found in the saliva
