Taylor Hill Lab 6: Enzymes Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to test for enzyme activity‚ look at enzyme specificity‚ and how temperature affects enzyme activity. Hypothesis: I believe that the room temperature activity will produce the most activity. Materials: 3% hydrogen peroxide‚ a household blender‚ potatoes (3 medium size potatoes‚ that are peeled and quartered)‚ tap water‚ 8 test tubes‚ 8 transfer pipets‚ sugar packets‚ salt‚ a small saucepan‚ a refrigerator with a freezer‚ stove

TRANSPIRATION DESIGN LAB Transpiration is the process through which water is lost from a plant. Water is taken into a plant through roots and root hairs by osmosis‚ and it exits the plant through stomata. Transpiration helps the diffusion of both O2 and CO2 plus it helps the movement of water throughout the plant. There are some factors that affect the rate of transpiration of the plant. Those factors are mainly humidity‚ soil water supply‚ sunlight‚ temperature and wind. Any alteration

Moment of Inertia and Rotational Motion Garret Hebert PHY 2311 Tues 1:00 garret.hebert@hindscc.edu Abstract: During this lab we will study what rotational Inertia is and how different shapes of masses and different masses behave inertially when compared to each other. We will specifically study the differences of inertia between a disk and a ring. We will use increasing forces to induce angular acceleration of both a disk and a ring of a certain mass. We will then then measure the differences

BIOLOGY 181 Lab # 4 Microscopy and Cells Lab A microscope is a tool that enables us to see objects and organisms that are invisible to the naked eye. Microscopes use a series of two or more lenses to magnify an illuminated image. Magnification is a measure of how big an object looks to your eye compared to “life size.” Microscopes also enhance the resolution of an image. Resolution is the ability to distinguish between two objects that are close together. Resolution can be increased using immersion

the cell. MATERIALS: Potato Forceps Stopwatch Scalpel Test tubes Knife Mass balance Graduated cylinder ruler salt solution test tube rack PROCEDURE: 1. Cut 18 potato cores from the same potato using a knife and place them onto the lab bench. Using a scalpel and ruler (calibrated in millimeters) cut the cores into 50 mm lengths‚ with care taken to ensure no potato peel being left on them. The cutting will be to an accuracy of 1 millimeter 2. Mass each potato core using the mass balance

cheese. Lactic acid bacteria(LAB)‚ a bacteria that can be found in the production of cheese‚ its stress gene was investigated in the experiment by using various biochemical and genetic techniques to identify and extract. The characterisation of the strain illustrates how identification of strains differ using different methods‚ such as gram stain and 16s rRNA screening. After the characterisation‚ the stress gene isolation assist the further understanding of the gene on LAB be giving different stress

Determining the Rate of Osmosis through a Semi-Permeable Membrane Schneider‚ Justin* Sec 16 and Thomas Hudson Introduction Water is the principle solvent in cells. There are three conditions that a cell may be subjected to in the cells physical environment. The cells may be isotonic‚ hypotonic‚ and hypertonic. Isotonic is when the cell and is environment have equal concentrations of solutes. Therefore cells in an isotonic solution do not experience osmosis. When the cell is hypotonic it

Introduction Chemical kinetics is the study of reaction rates. A reaction rate is the speed of the change in either reactants or products over a period of time. General kinetic rate equation is: Where [A] and [B] are the concentration of the species in the reaction. The variable k is the rate constant‚ which is a function of time and catalyst presence. The variables m and n are the order of reaction for their respective species concentration. The higher the value of the reaction order the
