    Which is an example of double circulation. The necessary adaptation of the 4 chambered heart was to support endothermy. Endothermic animals needed more energy‚ so the heart needed to deliver oxygen faster. The artery is the stout‚ walled tube that helps form the circulation system. Blood is transferred through these tubes from the heat‚ to all of the body. The vein is also a part of the circulation system. The vein is what brings the oxygen depleted blood back to

    Sarwal AP Lab 4 Determining the rate of Cellular Respiration Using Germinating and Dry Peas Purpose: To determine the rate of cellular respiration using dry and germinating peas. Introduction: In this lab‚ we are investing cellular respiration‚ specifically aerobic cellular respiration. Aerobic cellular respiration is the process by which cells consume oxygen during the oxidation of glucose and produce CO2 as a byproduct. During cellular respiration‚ glucose is split into a 6 carbon sugar‚ G3P through

    Anaerobic digestion Anaerobic digestion is a series of processes in which microorganisms break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen‚ used for industrial or domestic purposes to manage waste and/or to release energy. The digestion process begins with bacterial hydrolysis of the input materials in order to break down insoluble organic polymers such as carbohydrates and make them available for other bacteria. Acidogenic bacteria then convert the sugars and amino acids into carbon dioxide

    Does the amount of time that orange juice is swished in a human mouth affect the pH of the saliva‚ which could inhibit the digestion of the starches in the orange juice? Hypothesis: The longer 2 mL of orange juice is held in a test subject’s mouth‚ the greater the ability of the test subject’s saliva will become to break down starches. Dependent Variable: pH of the saliva. Independent Variable: time that the juice is swished in the mouth. Controlled Variables: Orange juice only. The

    Lipid Digestion The process of mastication is our only conscious act in the digestion of the foods we consume. After that‚ it’s out of sight‚ out of mind; but should it be? What does it take to transform that last swallow into the energy our body needs to sustain itself? In the case of lipid digestion‚ the real magic occurs throughout the gastrointestinal tract with a synergistic collaboration from the accessory organs: the liver‚ gallbladder and pancreas. Understanding the whole process of digestion

    Living things get energy to do things through photosynthesis‚ food molecule breakdown‚ build up‚ storage‚ and lastly cellular respiration. All of these ideas are the reason that myself and others have energy to do anything and everything. Photosynthesis is one way plants(plants are the main source of energy for all things)get energy to do things. The reactants of this are water‚ carbon dioxide‚ and although light energy is not a reactant‚ it is necessary once the energy from the seed is gone. Carbon

    Human Digestion Activity The digestive process involves the mixing of food‚ the movement of food through the digestive tract‚ and a chemical breakdown of large molecules of food into smaller molecules. The digestive system is made up of the digestive tract and other organs that aid in digestion. The digestive tract is a series of hollow organs joined in a long‚ twisting tube from the mouth to the anus. Those twisted tubes include the mouth‚ esophagus‚ stomach‚ small and
