living things are comprised of a variety of cells‚ such as kidney cells‚ brain cells and skin cells. Cancer develops when a particular cell mutates‚ then begins to grow and divide. Eventually‚ these cells form a mass called a malignant tumor‚ which often starts to invade surrounding tissue and organs. Super Foods It is thought that up to one third of cancer related deaths could be diet related. Many of the foods we eat today can in fact be harmful to the cells in our bodies‚ particularly ’fast food’

conditions do cells gain or lose water? Did water move into the cell or out of the cell while it was surrounded by hypotonic solution? The water moved into the cell‚ because there was less water inside the cell than outside (there were fewer water molecules inside). 2. In which direction did the water move though the cell membrane when the cell was surrounded by the hypertonic solution? The water moved out of the cell because there was a higher concentration of water inside the cell than outside

apron or lab coat to protect our eyes and clothes. As we are using enzymes and Hydrogen Peroxide we need to be extra careful‚ ensuring they don’t come into contact with our eyes‚ skin or clothes. Catalyse is an enzyme found in all living cells. It makes Hydrogen Peroxide decompose into water and Oxygen. We will be measuring the amount of Oxygen released from the Hydrogen Peroxide. In order to do this we will use a measuring cylinder. This piece of apparatus measures the amount of

test for the effects of temperature on catalase activity. Introduction: Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts and help complex reactions to occur everywhere in life. Enzymes affect a chemical reaction by acting as a catalyst‚ which is to say‚ it speeds up the reaction. However‚ extreme ph and temperature hinders enzyme function. Optimal activity of an enzyme is the optimal environment that an enzyme requires to function‚ which means having the optimum ph and temperature to catalyze a

Effect of temperature on enzyme activity In this experiment… Independent variable: Temperature of the amylase Dependent variable: Enzyme activity which is measured by the time for disappearance of starch Controlled variables: Volume of amylase; volume of starch solution; concentration of amylase; concentration of starch solution Prediction of results i) At low temperature‚ the rate of amylase activity is very low. ii) At optimum (=best) temperature‚ the rate of amylase activity is the

Experiment 4 – Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Aim To study the effects of temperature on the activity of amylase enzyme on starch solution. Introduction Enzymes are widely known as biological catalyst. Almost all cellular reactions are controlled and guarded by enzymes. Virtually every metabolic reaction which takes place within a living organisms are catalyzed by enzymes. Enzymes are complex three-dimensional globular proteins. Some of the enzymes are built up off proteins and

The factors affecting plant yield: light level Abstract The factors affecting Zea mays‚ maize (C4) and Pisum sativa‚ or pea (C3) plant yield and growth patterns placed under shade and full sunlight were investigated. 20 plantlets placed into four vermiculite compost pots (5 from each plantlet) and submitted to fertilizer or no fertilizer. And after 4 weeks the results showed that maize grown in light with no fertilizer had a higher relative growth rate and root to shoot ratio indicating the allocation

LAB 9: DATE: 25TH January‚ 2011. FORM CLASS: L6 3 SUBJECT: Biology TITLE: Enzymes AIM: To investigate the effect of temperature on the enzyme lipase INTRODUCTION: The phenomenon of catalysis makes possible biochemical reactions necessary for all life processes. Catalysis is defined as the acceleration of a chemical reaction by some substance which itself undergoes no permanent chemical change. The catalysts of biochemical reactions are enzymes and are responsible for bringing about almost

The effect temperature has on the activity of the enzyme α- amylase. Introduction Enzymes are a biological catalysts‚ which means that they speed up the chemical reactions in living organisms. Almost all of enzymes are energized protein molecules that catalyse and regulate nearly all biochemical reactions that occur within the human body. The reason in which enzymes are sensitive to heat‚ pH and heavy metal ions is because they are made up of proteins. The food we eat is turned into energy by enzymes
