Effects of Molasses Concentration on Yeast Fermentation The purpose of this lab was to determine how yeast cells are affected by the concentration of a food source‚ and for our purposes‚ the food sources were corn syrup and molasses. Our hypothesis was that the yeast cells would ferment the most when there was a higher concentration of molasses/corn syrup. In order to test this‚ we created 10 test tubes with decreasing concentrations of molasses/corn syrup using a serial dilution. Each test

The Effect of Temperature on Beet Cell Membranes Introduction In this lab‚ we are going to learn how the stress of temperature affects fresh beets. We have come to learn that cell membranes organize the chemical activities of cells. All cells are made of plasma membranes‚ often called fluid mosaics. It is sometimes described as a mosaic because it is made of protein molecules that are embedded into phospholipids. Phospholipids are the main structural support of the membrane and the proteins

investigate the effects of the increase in the enzyme concentration on the rate of reaction. By using self investigative and experimental skills‚ the experiment was done in order to determine how the rate of reaction will be altered‚ whether it will increase‚ decrease or remain constant when the different concentration of enzymes added. INTRODUCTION: Enzymes are produced naturally in plant‚ animal‚ and microbial cell. There are thousands of different enzyme can be found in any cell. Enzymes can

3.1 BIOLOGICAL MEMBRANES 3.1.1 Properties of Cell Membranes • Separates living cell from its nonliving surroundings. • 8 nm thick. • Selectively permeable - allows some substances to cross more easily than others. 4.1.2 Fluid Mosaic Model • Singer and Nicolson (1972) - plasma membrane is a mosaic of proteins dispersed within lipid bilayer‚ with only bilayer‚ the hydrophilic regions exposed to water. Hydrophilic region of protein Phospholipid bilayer Hydrophobic region of protein

In this laboratory experiment is stating that organic lipids have the ability to dissolve lipids membranes‚ and in this exercise acetone would be the main source to be used to have the reaction of dissolving the lipids inside the tubes. This exercise was to be able to observe how the chemicals reacted in rare temperatures such in heat and in cold weather‚ also this type of changes can create a new color either making the color lighter or darker. The reaction of a light color would be that it did

movement of molecules (or ions) from a high concentration to low concentration. Diffusion is form of passive transport as energy does not need to be generated. Diffusion is complete when the concentration of molecules is equal on either side of the membrane. Diffusion rate can be influenced by many factors such as: Concentration gradient across the the membrane. Permeability of the membrane to the diffusing substance. Temperature. Surface area of the membrane. Question 2 2.1 Acetylcholine is an organic

Cleaning with soap and soapless detergents. Detergent comes from the Latin word detergere meaning to clean‚ it is defined as a cleansing agent. Therefore‚ water itself is a detergent. This essay looks at soap and soapless (or synthetic) detergents. Both substances we use everyday and have a big market commercially‚ they effect everyone. Soaps are made from natural products and soapless detergents are produced chemically‚ each having advantages and disadvantages. Soap

The cell wall maintains the integrity of the cell. The cell wall helps protect the cell against the environmental changes it it allows most molecules to pass through it. This layer is composed of molecules called peptidoglycans. Just inside the cell wall is a less rigid envelope called the plasma membrane also known as the cytoplasmic membrane. In bacterial cells the plasma membrane has two primary functions: it serves as a selective barrier to molecules that are penetrating the cell wall allowing
