Microorganisms Anaerobic respiration takes place in yeast and some bacteria‚ producing ethanol and carbon dioxide. They have been used in the making of many foods such as bread‚ yoghurt and vinegar‚ Lactic acid bacteria are the key ingredient in yogurt production as they they initiate the fermentation process. Many of the species used in yogurt provide added health benefit to those who eat them regularly and are often referred to as probiotics. Probiotics are believed to strengthen your immune

Title: Inhibition of Yeast Glycolysis Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to study carbon dioxide emissions from yeast‚ as well as their respiratory rate and to use that data to study how glycolysis inhibitors affect the respiratory rate. In our experiment‚ we tested how 8.75% glucose + 1.25% NaCl‚ 8.75% glucose + 1.25% glucose-6-phosphate‚ 8.75% glucose + 1.25% citric acid‚ and yeast solution‚ all mixed with distilled water‚ affect carbon dioxide volumes and respiratory rate. Our results

with water to form carbonic acid during cellular respiration. Phenolphthalein can be used to help detect any changes in pH because of production of CO2 during cellular respiration. Phenolphthalein usually appears clear or colorless in acidic solutions‚ and red in basic solutions. Procedures: In the first lab‚ seven test tubes were attained and six of them were filled with the solutions that were listed (Na Pyruvate‚ MgSO4‚ NaF‚ Glucose‚ Water‚ and yeast suspension). The last test tube was filled

is the movement of water across a membrane. It always navigates to the area of the membrane with a higher solute concentration. We take a closer look at the effects of osmosis in this lab through the examination of red blood cells (sheep)‚ plant cells (elodea)‚ and active transport in yeast. Under the microscope‚ we can determine the effects on plant and animal cells exposed to hypotonic‚ hypertonic‚ and isotonic sodium chloride solutions. Plant cells have a cell wall; however‚ animal cells do not

the Effects of Mass and Type Of Sugar on Yeast Fermentation Lab Purpose: To measure and analyze the effects of various types and masses of sugar in an ethanol fermentation reaction with yeast. Introduction: Ethanol fermentation is a system in which hydrogen ions from NADH + H + are broken down in order to release the trapped energy and regenerate NAD+. In the absence of a mitochondria or oxygen ethanol is formed‚ which is typically found in bacteria and some yeast. Yeast fermentation

Effects of Temperature‚ pH‚ Enzyme Concentration‚ and Substrate Concentration on Enzymatic Activity INTRODUCTION Enzymes‚ proteins that act as catalysts‚ are the most important type of protein[1]. Catalysts speed up chemical reactions and can go without being used up or changed [3] Without enzymes‚ the biochemical reactions that take place will react too slowly to keep up with the metabolic needs and the life functions of organisms. Catecholase is a reaction between oxygen and catechol

Balloon Respiration Lab Introduction/ Background Cellular respiration is a process that releases chemical energy from glucose and other carbon-based molecules to produce ATP when oxygen is present. The formula for cellular respiration is C6H12O6+ 6O2= 6CO2= 6H2O. The process of respiration contains three main parts‚ glycolysis‚ Krebs cycle‚ and the Electron Transport Chain. The process of glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm and is considered an anaerobic process which splits glucose into two

Goldfish Respiration Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to tests the effects of temperature on the respiration (breathing) rate of goldfish. In order to determine the goldfish respiration change adding small amounts of crushed ice to the water‚ than behavior will be noted. Then‚ the goldfish will experience the same experiment four more times and be noted again. This experiment will be conducted with four students‚ one goldfish‚ a 250 mL and a 150 mL beaker‚ thermometer‚ crushed ice‚

Goldfish Respiration Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to design and conduct a basic scientific experiment‚ identify and control variables. Some other objectives that we learned is to write a formal hypothesis‚ identify the basic and integrated process skills of science that were used in this experiment. Also‚ we will learned the effects of temperature on goldfish respiration. This experiment will be conducted with four students ‚ one goldfish‚ thermometer‚ a stop watch‚ and a beaker
