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

Results: The mealworms that were in the room temperature water have a higher cellular respiration rate than the mealworms in the cold water. This is because while they are in the cold water‚ the mealworm’s body slows down which decreases the amount of CO2 that is being produced. Unlike the mealworms in room temperature water‚ their cellular respiration was higher because their body temperature remained the same creating CO2 at a faster rate. Since there were two different controlled groups‚ there

| | Kinetics Author: Katie Wood Instructor: Donald Kavanagh Chem 106b‚ Section 001 Lab Performed 8th‚ 2012 Lab Report Submitted February 22nd‚ 2012 Abstract The purpose of the lab was to determine the order of reaction for the dye Red #40. By measuring the reaction rate between bleach and the dye‚ the order of the reaction was determined to be first order. Introduction The study of kinetics is important for studying the amount of time it takes for a particular reaction to reach

The main purpose of this lab is to explain what emulsifiers and emulsions are and how emulsifiers affect emulsion stability. An emulsion is a mix of to or more liquids that usually do not mix together. One liquid is evenly dispersed in small droplets throughout the other liquid. Many emulsions contain water as one of the phases. There are two different types of emulsions. One type of emulsion contains oil droplets that are dispersed within water. It is considered oil in water emulsion. The other type

particles in the compound are excluded from the crystal lattice. After obtaining the pure compound‚ a melting point determination procedure can be done using a mel-temp device to correctly identify the compound if its identity is unknown. In this experiment‚ the identity of a given unknown organic solid will be discovered using the methods of recrystallization and melting point determination. Safety Information • Be sure to add a boiling chip to any liquid before heating it. • Always wear department

9/23/12 Lab Report #1 Meter Reading Summary The objective of this experiment was to learn how to read different meters like the D.C. volt meter and the D.C. amperes meter. In all meters each big line is a major division and each little line in between is a minor division‚ and if there is a line smaller than the minor division lines then that would be a sub minor division. Each meter has a low‚ medium‚ and high range. For example on the D.C. volt meter the ranges go from top to bottom 150‚ 15‚

The pGLO lab is a lab where students attempt to put the genes that make a jelly fish glow into E. Coli. After a process called transformation‚ the process in which a cell takes up and expresses a new piece of genetic information‚ the E. Coli will be able to glow and will be antibiotic resistant. The students first need to learn a couple of techniques before they are able to begin this lab. The first technique they will need is how to keep their environment sterile. They must learn to only open their

Meiossis and Genetic Diversity in Sordaria Meiosis and Genetic Diversity in the Model Organism‚ Sordaria. By: Katie Fiorillo BIO110 Lab TA: Lauren Smith October 30‚ 2012 A. INTRODUCTION: In this lab‚ the organism Sordaria fimicola was used to explore factors contributing to genetic evolution of sexual reproduction. These organisms are found in “Evolution Canyons‚” which occur when two mountain slopes with very different climatic conditions congregate with a comparatively small valley

sale which we are expecting to sell all of them in the school farmer market. Conclusion: The cookies that we made during each lab showed most of the benefits and disadvantages of making our own cookies compare buying commercial cookies (saving money‚ healthier version‚ taste‚ and texture). I believe‚ I can use all these experiences that I gained during each cookies labs at home too. Also‚ it will be helpful and useful in food service. For instance‚ as a register dietitian‚ I can approach any desserts
