Diffusion and osmosis go hand-in-hand. Osmosis is generally the same as diffusion‚ however‚ deals solely with water. Osmotic pressure is the pressure of a solution against a semi-permeable membrane to prevent water from flowing into the membrane. In this lab‚ we are going to study tonicity; tonicity is the measure of this osmotic pressure and is the differential of pressure between two solutions separated by a selective membrane. To help identify the relative concentrations of solute particles of different

Plants also need water for photosynthesis‚ to be able to create their food. The water travels up to the plant’s stem‚ where photosynthesis takes place. Water is

Title: Enzyme Catalysis of Hydrogen Peroxide by Catalase Problem and Objectives: How do different temperatures and different levels of pH affect the reaction rate of the enzymes in chicken liver? Demonstrate the activity of an enzyme in living tissue‚ observe the effects of changes in temperature and pH on the activity of an enzyme‚ perform analyses for the presence of an enzyme in tissues‚ and analyzing relationships between environmental conditions and enzyme activity. Background: Cells produce

process of photosynthesis requires sunlight for its nutrients to make their way into the chlorophyll on green plants. This suggests that without direct sunlight‚ photosynthesis will not be completed correctly or the plants functions will not work properly. Majority of plants that undergo photosynthesis have chlorophyll stored within them‚ it is what gives them their green color. However‚ there are few species of plants that don’t acquire chlorophyll‚ but still undergo the process of photosynthesis. Specific

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

Maryely Ramirez Professor Theresa Sterner Bio Lab 105 04 November 2013 The Effects Environmental Temperature and pH have on the Activity of Porcine Pancreatic Amylase Introduction There are many types of enzymes and each has a specific job. Enzymes are particular types of proteins that help to speed up some reactions‚ such as reactants going to products. One of them is the amylase enzyme. Amylases are found in saliva‚ and pancreatic secretions of the small intestine. The function of amylase is

Title: The Effect of Nicotine on the Heart Rate of the Lumbriculus Variegatus Introduction: Background- This lab is being done to demonstrate the effects of stimulants on the circulatory system of blackworms. In this lab‚ the stimulant we have chosen to use is Nicotine. A stimulant is an agent that causes increased activity‚ especially in the nervous or cardiovascular systems. In this lab‚ we will put blackworms into the Nicotine to look at the differences in pulse rates when compared to a control
