Exercise 1: Dissolved oxygen is oxygen that is trapped in a fluid‚ such as water. Since virtually every living organism requires oxygen to survive‚ it is a necessary component of water systems such as streams‚ lakes and rivers in order to support aquatic life. The dissolved oxygen is measure in units of ppm—or parts per million. Examine the data in Table 2 showing the amount of dissolved oxygen present and the number of fish observed in the body of water the sample was taken from; finally‚ answer

experiment is to test the effect temperature has on the activity of the enzyme rennin. Hypothesis: I believe the rate of reaction will speed up as the temperature increases until it reaches about 37oC‚ which is the body temperature‚ where it will begin to slow down and stop reacting. I believe this will occur because enzymes have a temperature range at which they work best in and once the temperature goes out of this range the enzyme will stop working. Introduction:Enzymes are made up of proteins which

Acids & Bases Lab Write Up Lab 2 Introduction There are many acids and bases all around us. An acid is known as a hydrogen ion donor (H¯)‚ and a base is known as a hydrogen ion acceptor (H⁺). Acids and bases are represented by the pH scale. The pH scale shows the strength that an acid or base has. This scale ranges from 0-14‚ with 0-6 being acids‚ 8-14 being bases‚ and 7 being neutral‚ such as water. This is defined as the negative log of an ion atom (pH=

Alcohol related liver diseases are a wide range area which refers to a general term named as alcoholic liver diseases. Millions of individuals around the world get affected with liver diseases due to high alcohol consumption. Several risk factors have been analysed that affects the risk of development and evolution of liver disease. The primitiveness and estimation of alcohol related alcoholic liver diseases depends on the pattern and term of alcohol consumption‚ presence of liver inflammation‚ diet

What is Enzyme? Enzymes are protein that acts as speed up reactions and break down molecules in our body. However‚ different enzymes only work on certain types of molecules. Enzymes can accelerate the reactions by more than one million times.(3) In our human body‚ there are a total about forty thousand types of enzymes and each catalyzes different kind of molecule.(3) The molecules that enzymes help to accelerate is called substrates‚ and when enzyme is combined together with the substrate‚ it

Misael Acosta Photosynthesis Lab Report Ms. Rocha AP Biology 4th Period II. Intro/Background 1. In order for oxygen to be present photosynthesis must occur. Photosynthesis takes in light and CO2‚ and through a series of steps produces oxygen. Photosynthesis can be measured by either the disappearance of substrate or the accumulation of product. Examples include the production of O2 or the consumption of CO2. All the oxygen within the leaf disks will be removed before being placed

Osmosis Lab Report by Evan Gerber Claire Cambron First Lab Report Wednesday 10:30am February 20‚ 2013 Theresa Gburek Abstract The major objective of the experiment was to test the effect of the concentration gradient on the diffusion rate. It was hypothesized that the greater the stronger the concentration gradient‚ the faster the rate of diffusion would be. To test this‚ dialysis tubes were submerged in different concentration fructose solutions. We weighed the tubes at specific

Biology Lab Scientific Paper Down syndrome is a condition in which a person has an extra chromosome. Chromosomes are small “packages” of genes in the body. They determine how a baby’s body forms during pregnancy and how the baby’s body functions as it grows in the womb and after birth. Usually‚ a baby is born with 46 chromosomes but babies with Down syndrome have an extra copy of one of these chromosomes‚ chromosome 21. A medical term for having an extra copy of a chromosome is trisomy. Down syndrome
