2012-2013 Winter Break Homework Packet Prince George’s County Public Schools Reading/English Language Arts Grade 9 1 GRADE 9 WINTER BREAK READING HOMEWORK PACKET In Preparation for the Maryland High School Assessment‚ PSAT‚ and SAT DIRECTIONS: The enclosed activities are to be completed by your child during the Winter Break and he/she is encouraged to return it to his/her Reading/English Language Arts teacher upon return to school. Parents are encouraged to assist in the following ways:

Purpose: To determine the effect of various factors on the rate of reaction between an enzyme andits substrate‚ and also to determine the optimal ranges under which the enzyme activity ismaximized. Also to determine whether saline and alcohol are inhibitors or activators Hypothesis: PH factor prediction: I predict that as the pH increases so the activity of the enzyme willincrease until it reaches optimum pH range (pH 7) because the enzyme is less denaturedwhen it reaches the preferred pH level

A2 Practical Investigations Title: The effect of Temperature on the growth of Aspergillus oryzae Develop a Hypothesis This particular investigation is to discover how a range of temperatures effects the growth rate of the fungi Aspergillus oryzae. Most fungi’s tend to survive within the temperature range of 5-35oC‚ with the optimum depending on their normal environmental temperature. The fungi Aspergillus oryzae is heterotrophic which means they taken in their food from dead organic matter and cannot

PART B YOU WILL NOW DESIGN AN EXPERIMENT TO STUDY THE EFFECT OF A FACTOR AFFECTING VITAMIN C IN FRUIT JUICES WHAT IS THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON VITAMIN C IN FRUIT JUICES? The purpose of this experiment is to determine if the difference in temperature will damage vitamin C in any type of fruit juices. Five different temperatures of fruit juices will be used(5‚ 22‚ 50‚ 70‚ 90) degree Celsius to see how temperature affects the loss of vitamin C in fruit juices. The amount of vitamin C in the fruit

Effect of Osmotic Stress and Temperature on Microbial Growth BIO 3400-002L – Microbiology Lab 1 Effect of Osmotic Stress and Temperature on Microbial Growth Luiz Felipe Isidoro ABSTRACT Evolution allowed primitive forms of life to develop proteins and enzymes that made it possible for life to evolve under environments with hostile conditions‚ such as high salt and heat. More specifically‚ some bacteria selected genes that code for peptides with stronger intermolecular forces‚ coping

The Effect of Concentration‚ pH and Temperature on Enzyme Activity Biology For Majors October 4‚ 2012 Abstract We examined the reaction an enzyme has when its concentration‚ pH and temperature are altered. In order to do this‚ we added different levels of pH into different test tubes with the enzyme (sucrose)‚ and substrate (sucrose)‚ and we then inverted the tube. The higher pH produced more enzyme activity. Temperature effects enzyme activity by decreasing its stability when the temperature

construction material and magnetic materials fields. Temperature of ball mill has an important impact on the quality of products. To understand the issue of temperature control of ball mill can better finish grinding. Temperature of ball mill is big issue. Appropriate temperature must be set in production. Temperature not only affects the properties of ball mill material but also the grinding performance of grinding materials. The normal temperature of ball mill is high and there are many reasons

Title of Experiment: The Effect of Temperature on the Hatching Success of Brine Shrimps. Abstract In this experiment‚ 40 brine shrimp eggs are put into a test tube containing salt water at different temperature such as 25°C and 35°C respectively. The eggs are left from two days to hatch. After two days‚ the number of eggs successfully hatched are observed and counted. Introduction Brine shrimp is the common name for a primordial crustacean that reaches less than 1.3 cm in length and is usually

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

Biochemistry CP2085 Effect of Temperature‚ Study and Measure of Enzymes Activity Abstract This experiment investigates the effect that temperature has on the rate of activity of enzyme β-galactosidase and also the rate of β-galactosidase activity in different concentration of substrate over time. Ο-nitrophenylgalactoside (ONPG) is used as a substrate for β-galactosidase. A spectrophotometer is used to detect the change in colour of the substrate. Results show that increase in temperature up to 50oC speeds
