AP Biology Lab Four: Plant Pigments and Photosynthesis Abstract: The purpose of this lab is to separate and identify pigments and other molecules within plant cells by a process called chromatography. We will also be measuring the rate of photosynthesis in isolated chloroplasts. Beta carotene‚ the most abundant carotene in plants‚ is carried along near the solvent front because it is very soluble in the solvent being used and because it forms no hydrogen bonds with cellulose. Xanthophyll is found

the difference in heart rates before and during intense exercise. Aim: The aim of the investigation was to discover how the heart rate varied with the intensity of exercise. The heart rate is a term describing the regularity of the cardiac cycle. The heart rate is the amount of times it contracts (beats) in a unit of time‚ nearly always per minute. At rest the adult female’s heart rate regulates 75 bpm (beats per minute) but this varies between people. If the heart rate is measured before‚ during

Investigative Quest The purpose of this experiment was to find out how music affects the female human heart rate. Hypothesis My hypothesis is that female resting heart rate will increase as the music tempo increases. If the tempo is slower the heart rate will stay at resting heart rate or decrease. Variables The variables used in this experiment were: • The tempo of the music. • The subject’s heart rate. • The subject’s age. Controls The controls used in this experiment were: • How long the subject

heart rate to speed up‚ decrease‚ or stay the same‚ the volume of sound has a high effect on the heart. However‚ if people will let down the volume of sound‚ others would not be mannered by the increase in volume managing to the deadly heart attack. Sound within the community‚ for instance‚ traffic can cause a human’s heart rate of increase. Problem of heartbeat tends to be solved by seeing what kind of sound causes the increase of heart rates to place a termination to increase of heart rate. If

environments affecting the rate of reaction‚ PNPP (p-nitrophenyl phosphate) + H20 ? PNP (p-nitrophenol) + H3P04. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme phosphatase. Different environments produced different reaction rates as environmental factors affect the efficiency of phosphatase. This is because environmental factors can change the tertiary structure of phosphatase‚ which alters its active site‚ and thus changes its efficiency to catalyze the reaction. We measured the rate of reaction‚ by using

human heart rate. To test this‚ we did two full laps of the oval‚ and measured our resting heart rate‚ just before the test‚ just after test and also our recovery rate after the test. Below are the graphs that show the different heart rates of our group of three. We conducted this experiment in a group of three so we could compare results and‚ if the results were different‚ analyse and research why we each had different results. Aim- The purpose of this test was to record how our heart rate would change

Investigating the Effect of Light Wavelength on the Rate of Photosynthesis Method Take a 250cm3 beaker and fill it with distilled water. Use distilled water so there are no impurities to disrupt photosynthesis. Then take x cm’s of elodia and put it in the beaker. Cover the elodia with the large end of a funnel and the tip of the funnel cover with a test tube. Then direct a light onto this experiment. Measure the amount of bubbles that come from the elodia for x minutes. A prediction

Expiratory reserve volume decreased due to the rapid increase in breath rate. Normal resting breath rate is at an average 11.6 breaths per minute increased to 27 breaths per minute after exercise. The increase in BR causes expiration length to go below its normal 3 second interval. Therefore decreasing ERV by .6 Liters. Inspiratory reserve volume decreased due to the rapid increase in breath rate. Normal resting breath rate is at an average 11.6 breaths per minute increased to 27 breaths per minute

Demonstration of the Rates of Reaction Between Sulphuric Acid (25mL ±0.5mL) and Magnesium (0.02g ±0.01g) Changing Due to Different Surface Areas By Chania Baldwin Introduction: When sulphuric acid and magnesium are added together‚ magnesium sulphate and hydrogen gas is created. To create such a reaction the atoms must collide with a sufficient amount of energy. Every reaction requires a different amount of energy to create the reaction‚ which is called the activation energy; when there is not enough

However hydrogen peroxide it is a very dangerous substance when accumulated in large amounts. If that situation occurs this substance must be decomposed. But how can we decompose this reaction? Well it decomposes by itself
