scored 100% by answering 4 out of 4 questions correctly. 1. In cases of acidosis‚ the pH of the blood is You correctly answered: c. less than 7.35. 2. Carbon dioxide and water form You correctly answered: a. carbonic acid (a weak acid). 3. Which of the following is true of respiratory acidosis? You correctly answered: c. The amount of carbon dioxide in the blood is greater than normal. 4. Rebreathing You correctly answered: b. is exemplified by breathing into a paper bag. 07/14/13 page 1

pipette. The apparatus was left in a warm place for a day and observations were made. Observations/ Results: It was observed that after sometime‚ air bubbles arose and turned the lime water into milky precipitate showing that the air evolved was carbon dioxide. When the rubber bung of the test tube containing sugar and yeast was removed‚ the smell of alcohol was observed. Discussion: Respiration is a series of metabolic reactions occurring on cellular levels and releasing energy from organic material

affect the rate of photosynthesis are: carbon dioxide concentration temperature light intensity pH Carbon dioxide concentration: Since a plant takes in carbon dioxide and gives out oxygen‚ as the concentration of carbon dioxide increases‚ so does the rate of photosynthesis. After a certain concentration of carbon dioxide is reached the rate of photosynthesis does no longer increase and just stays the same making carbon dioxide no longer a limiting factor.

process that releases chemical energy from glucose and other carbon-based molecules to produce ATP when oxygen is present. The formula for cellular respiration is C6H12O6+ 6O2= 6CO2= 6H2O. The process of respiration contains three main parts‚ glycolysis‚ Krebs cycle‚ and the Electron Transport Chain. The process of glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm and is considered an anaerobic process which splits glucose into two three-carbon molecules and makes two molecules of ATP. The Krebs cycle takes

that make up our atmosphere: Carbon Dioxide 89% Methane 7% Nitrous Oxide 3% Halocarbons 1% What is the Greenhouse Effect? The Greenhouse Effect is the way that gases in the atmosphere trap heat from the sun. They let heat in‚ but prevent most of it from escaping. It is essential for life because we need a certain amount of radiation to heat up our atmosphere. What human activities produce Greenhouse Gases? By burning fossil fuels such as coal‚ oil and gas‚ Carbon Dioxide is released into the atmosphere

debate is if the cause of these events is a natural process or not. The way our planet is warmed is by the sun; the sun’s heat rays are absorbed by greenhouse gasses‚ and become trapped in the atmosphere by greenhouse gasses‚ such as water vapor‚ carbon dioxide‚ and methane. If there were no greenhouse gasses‚ we would see little to no rays being absorbed by the Earth‚ causing it to be cold. However‚ the question we must ask is‚ are we absorbing too much of the sun’s rays and are we causing an issue

involves the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. The body requires a constant amount of oxygen to function properly‚ though the body can survive for a short time without food or water we need oxygen to survive and it is required for all cells to survive‚ a lack of it can result in death. We as human beings taken in oxygen from air and release carbon dioxide (which is waste) and water through exhaling; the continual intake of oxygen (O2) and the release of carbon dioxide (CO2) is what’s necessary to sustain

to save energy‚ and wrap it in an insulating blanket if it is more than 5 years old. Buy low-flow showerheads to save hot water and about 350 pounds of carbon dioxide yearly. Wash your clothes in warm or cold water to reduce your use of hot water and the energy required to produce it. That change alone can save at least 500 pounds of carbon dioxide annually in most households. Use the energy-saving settings on yourdishwasher and let the dishes air-dry. 7.

They use it to react carbon dioxide with water to make a sugar called glucose. The glucose is used in respiration‚ or converted into starch and stored. Oxygen is produced as a by-product. The equation for photosynthesis: Carbon Dioxide + Water (+ Light Energy) → Glucose + Oxygen Symbol equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O ------> C6H12O6 + 6O2 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/science/add_aqa_pre_2011/plants/plants1.shtml) The effect of the concentration of carbon dioxide on the rate of photosynthesis:
