Experiments investigating the effect of a particular factor on an enzyme-catalysed reaction are commonly used as assessed practicals in Biology. The reason for this is there are a number of factors that can be investigated‚ and therefore‚ a number of factors that can also be controlled. From our lecture‚ we are aware that the following can affect the rate of reaction: 1) Temperature: a. Independent variable: A range of temperatures should be investigated‚ with particular attention

changes these chemicals undergo. I expect for each solution to react differently when mixed with acids and bases. Procedure: I have a well-plate-96‚ a piece of white and black paper‚ and the chemicals from the Observation of Chemical Changes Experiment Bag. I used a different well for each combination of solutions. I placed two drops of one chemical then two drops of a different chemical. Observation: NaHCO3 and HCl - Clear bubbles; bubbles did not fizz. HCl and BTB- Color changes to orange

molecules such as; food consumed. A person required water and enzymes to break down food. The reaction is: protein + water = amino acid + amino acid Condensation: Occurs when two molecules combine to form one molecule. This biochemical reaction is known as dehydration synthesis because water is removed from the molecule. This condensation reaction occurs in the body when you are building muscle tissue. The reaction is: Amino acid + amino acid = protein + water Oxidation Reduction (redox): Oxidation is the

Temperature range Background: All organisms are adapted to a particular environment with its characteristic temperature range. The temperature range allows the organism’s enzymes to control its metabolism by operating at their optimum efficiency within this range. Some organisms are adapted to live at high temperatures (80 - 100oC) and these are called thermophiles

marriage in Property‚ by Valerie Martin is ultimately connected with the institution of slavery in America. The aristocratic life of the early 19th century is defined in the use of these themes through the pictures they create. Not only do the themes cause the novel to become so gripping‚ but the characters help in the suspense as well. Each character is presented to be believable and very developed‚ adding to the excellent sense of reality that the novel gives off overall. Property captivates its

Biology 1010 is a course that introduces students to the basic biological phenomena in all living organisms. It focuses on the different molecular levels of organization‚ heredity in evolution‚ genetics and reproduction. Through this course‚ I was able to master three essential concepts such as Mendel’s Law of Segregation‚ enzymes‚ and photosynthesis. Gregor Mendel was an Augustinian monk that argued that parental traits are passed on to their offspring discrete “heritable factors”. Heritable factors

January 31‚ 2014 Mr. Robinson IB Biology I 2ND Period The Effects of Light on Plant Growth Introduction: Photosynthesis is the process in which plants use light energy‚ water‚ and carbon dioxide to produce food. Plants use the food they make for the growth and for the carrying out other life processes. Sunlight is the natural energy source for photosynthesis. White light form the sun is a mixture of all the colors of the light spectrum: red‚ orange‚ yellow‚ green‚ blue‚ and violet. Light
