Aim: To investigate the effect to the potato cells in the different solute concentration water Introduction; Water can move through the different cells due to the difference of water potentials in the cells. If there is a higher solute concentration in the cell than outside the cell‚ the water will move into the cell. However‚ if the concentration of inside the cell is lower than the outside‚ water will not move into the cell. This process is called osmosis. Research question; This investigation

The Affect of Water Temperature on Goldfish Breathing Rate Carlos Vega Vanessa Santamaria Rasa Hodges 9/12/2013 Introduction The main objective of our lab was to see how temperature affects the breathing patterns of an Ectothermic animal. Ectothermic is the same thing as cold-blooded. It means that the animal‚ in this case a goldfish (Carassius Aauratus)‚ does not produce its own heat internally so the animals temperature depends on the temperature of its surroundings. So

An investigation to see how much oxygen is given off when different concentrations of catalase are added with hydrogen peroxide. Aim: To see if changing the concentration of catalase (found in celery) with hydrogen peroxide affects the amount of oxygen given of. Background Information: (Hydrogen peroxide - H2O2 1/2O2+H2O) Enzymes: Hundreds of chemical reactions happen simultaneously inside living cells and it’s the job of enzymes to control and regulate the various metabolic

Aim To find out difference in the heat of combustion for different types of alcohols. Hypothesis The higher the number of carbon atoms in an alcohol is‚ the higher the energy for the heat of combustion. Alcohol is a homologous series‚ a series of organic compounds with similar formula and chemical properties‚ and increase in molecular size and mass. When the equations for combustion of these alcohols are listed in the order of increasing number of carbon atoms‚ Methanol 1 CH3OH(l) + 3/2 O2(g)
