changes in temperature expands the air inside of the basketball causing it to bounce higher. This experiment was decided by observations made while playing the sport basketball. It was observed that when a basketball is left in the sun and made warm‚ the ball bounces higher when dribbled than if left inside. Our assumed result was that an increase in temperature would cause an increase in air pressure causing the bounce of the basketball to increase. The independent variable was the temperature in which

Biology Investigation Aim: to investigate the effects of light and gravity on the growth of sunflower seeds. Background Info: Tropism is directional movement in response to a directional stimulus eg light or gravity. Plants are not able to relocate if they happen to start growing where conditions are nor perfect but they can alter their growth towards more favorable conditions. Plants respond to light (phototropism) where the stems grow towards the light and the roots grow away from

process in which a bacterial cell takes up extracellular DNA. This can be especially useful for bacteria in order to acquire certain traits such as: antibiotic resistance‚ synthesis of catabolites‚ or any other trait that would help improve its survival. However‚ not all bacterial cells are naturally competent (able to naturally take up extracellular DNA). There are several techniques that can make cells artificially competent‚ some of which will be discussed later. Bacterial transformation was

Cell size is limited by the efficiency of diffusion across the plasma membrane. A typical eukaryotic cell is 10 to 100 micrometers in diameter opposed to prokaryotic cells are 1 to 10 micrometers in diameter. Bacterial and Eukaryotic cells display different cell organization in their size and structure

Effect of temperature and humidity on the transpiration rateof the whole mushrooms P.V. Mahajan * ‚ F.A.R. Oliveira‚ I. Macedo Department of Process and Chemical Engineering‚ University College Cork‚ Ireland Abstract Water loss or transpiration is an important physiological process that affects the main quality characteristics of fresh mushrooms‚such as saleable weight‚ appearance and texture. A loss in weight of only 5% may cause fresh produce to lose freshness and appear wiltedand it is an

However‚ the 35oC temperature had a no clear skew of results as indicated through the range‚ 14 and the error percentage‚ 161.47%‚ suggesting that the trials at this temperature were not very accurate as they were largely inconsistent. The 50oC also proved to have inaccuracies‚ however‚ not as significant as the previous temperature‚

The Effect of Increasing Temperatures on the Enzyme Catalase Enzymes are proteins that help speed up chemical reactions inside your body and without enzymes‚ chemicals reactions in cells would be incredibly slow to a point where no activity at all takes place (Brawo press Inc‚ 2017). Enzymes speed up the chemical reactions by lowering the activations energy and they do this by binding substrates together in the correct orientation to react (Ernest Z‚ 2014). They are vital for life and serve a
