oscillating by the means of a springs in parallel Motion sensor and photogate connected to Science workshop interface Non-linear springy objects (rubber bands) Two rectangular weights of ~0.5 kg each to change the mass of the system Procedure: The lab experiment was done in two parts. Part 1 of the experiment was done by 2 different methods. Method 1 was with a force sensor‚ springs‚ and a weight hanger in which masses of 100 gram increments were added (up to 600 grams). A force vs. displacement

BIOLOGY LAB REPORT (UNIT 7: ENZYMES) GENERAL Enzymes are protein that acts as catalyst‚ lowering the activation energy need for reactions to progress in cells. The reaction can still occur without the presence of the enzyme‚ but at a much slower rate. The activation energy is the minimum amount of energy need for a chemical reaction to occur‚ yielding from a given set of reactants. In enzymatic reactions‚ we have substrates which are reactants of reaction bound to an enzyme. While an active site

Introduction: Mitosis occurs in all eukaryotic cell tissues and produces genetically identical daughter cells with a complete set of chromosomes. In humans‚ mitosis produces somatic cells that are diploid‚ which means they contain two non-identical copies of each of the twenty-three chromosomes. One copy is derived from the person’s mother and the other from the person’s father. Meiosis‚ on the other hand‚ occurs only in testis and ovary tissues‚ producing sperm and ova (eggs). The gametes that

IB Chemistry Experiment 4 Composition of a Post-1983 Penny Lab Report Background: Through the use of percent composition one can easily find out how much of a certain element is in a compound or an item such as a post-1983 penny. The experiment will be using HCl a strong acid to dissolve all the zinc inside the outer copper shell. The reaction follows as such; Zn+2HCLZnCl2+H2‚ but there will be no reaction with copper. The portion that will be measured is the mass of copper left after all of

If sodium chloride is added to a solution with Saccharomyces cerevisiae‚ then sodium chloride should hinder the growth and reproduction of those cells because the salt concentrations will limit the overall efficiency of the cell’s reproductive processes as well as decrease overall colony size. In our experiment‚ we plan to note the effects of salt on S. cerevisiae by both spot plating to note overall cell colony size and the number of total cells and through the use of electro photometry to also

I) Introduction In this lab‚ a test was conducted to determine how the relative redox activity of chloroplasts from spinach leaves‚ which were performing photosynthesis‚ would change when in the presence or absence of light. To observe these changes in redox activity‚ the chloroplasts were exposed to DCPIP‚ a chemical that changes color according to such activity. By determining the redox activity of the chloroplasts‚ it could then be inferred which chloroplasts were photosynthesizing more actively
