with discretion; opt for carbohydrates with a low glycemic index (GI). GI is the property of a carbohydrate to be converted into blood sugar. A low GI indicates that a carbohydrate takes longer to be converted to sugar‚ thus implying that it is contains insoluble fiber that is tougher to break down (that’s good news‚ intestines need some exercise too). While consuming carbohydrates‚ watch out for the glycemic load (GL) too. Glycemic load accounts for how much carbohydrate is in the food‚ and how much

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

Others have opted for the United States Department of Agriculture ’s low fat diet‚ but neither understands the chemistry of the body or may have misinformation about these compounds. Not many Americans can tell you confidently what a fat‚ carbohydrate‚ or protein is chemically or how it works in the body. It

Title: “The Effect of Substrate Concentration‚ Enzyme Concentration‚ pH and Temperature on Enzyme Activity” Abstract: In the following experiments we will measure precise amounts of potato extract as well as Phenylthiourea‚ combined with or without deionized water and in some instances change the temperature and observe and record the reaction. We will also investigate the different levels of prepared pH on varying samples of the potato extract and the Phenylthiourea and record the results.

Abstract: Antibiotics are among the most frequently prescribed medications in modern medicine. Antibiotics cure disease by killing bacteria and keeping them from reproducing. Penicillin was the first antibiotic‚ discovered accidentally from a mold culture. Presently‚ over 100 different antibiotics are available in the market to cure minor discomforts as well as lifethreatening infections. Antibiotics are very useful in a wide variety of infections‚ but they only treat bacterial infections. Antibiotics
