THE EFFECT OF INHIBITORS AND MANIPULATION IN ENERGY PRODUCTION OF YEAST CELLS FOR GLYCOLYSIS AND FERMENTATION INTRODUCTION The aim of this experiment was to study the process of alcoholic fermentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast cells) and measure the rate of Co2 production during anaerobic breakdown of the respiratory substrate‚ sucrose‚ in the yeast cells. The effects of an inhibitor on respiratory enzyme were also looked at. It is hypothesized that the five different reaction mixtures

Purine metabolism is central to the production of nucleotides in the body. Imbalances in this process can lead to hyperuricemia which is abnormally high levels of uric acid in the blood [>360μmol/L in females and >400μmol/L in males]. Hyperuricemia can lead to uric acid crystals precipitating in the joints‚ skin‚ vessels and other tissues‚ this is a form of inflammatory arthritis known as gout. Uric acid is a metabolite of purine metabolism therefore gout can aptly be characterized as a disorder

How microscopes have contributed to our understanding of living organisms There are 2 types of microscopes these are; light microscope and electron microscope. Light microscopes use a beam of light however the resolution is lower than the electron microscope so the image is not clear‚ however they can view living organisms. These types of microscopes are used in schools to view simple cellular structures‚ which is good to teach simple biology Mitosis and meiosis can be seen with light microscopes

Understand how to manage a team 1.1 Define the key features of effective team performance The features of an effective team could be best summed up by Kenneth Blanchard’s Mnemonic PERFORM; this can be broken down into the following: P = Purpose E = Empowerment R = Relationships and communication F = Flexibility O = Optimal Productivity R = Recognition and appreciation M = Morale Purpose – The purpose must be commonly shared between each team member. There must be clear goals within

Critique of Tips for Slowing Down Your Metabolism The purpose of the author was to explain that metabolic rate is not the key factor to weight losing and it is better to slow down the metabolism than to raise it. The logical structure of the article is composed of three components‚ the definition of metabolic rate‚ the relation between the rate and weight losing and the preference to speeding up or slowing down the metabolic rate. Generally speaking‚ it is unquestionable that losing weight has tiny

Why Is Cameron? why not How do you produce nuclear energy? In a nuclear-fueled power plant – much like a fossil-fueled power plant – water is turned into steam‚ which in turn drives turbine generators to produce electricity. The difference is the source of heat. At nuclear power plants‚ the heat to make the steam is created when uranium atoms split – called fission. What is the process that occurs during a nuclear chain reaction? Nuclear Chain Reactions. A chain reaction refers to a process in
