Biofuel Enzyme Kit Katie Adamson Biochemistry Laboratory‚ BIO124L 1/29/15 Abstract The objective in this lab was to determine the effects different conditions had on the enzyme cellobiase. We examined reaction rates in the presence or absence of an enzyme‚ the effects temperature and pH changes on the enzyme and the effects enzyme concentration and substrate concentration had on the enzyme. As expected results showed us that cellobiase works optimally when conditions are favorable. We see this

First hand investigation of the Dissolution of Solutes Background Information Molar heat of solution * The molar heat of solution of a substance is the heat absorbed when one mole of the substance dissolves in a large excess of water. It is expressed in kJ/mol. * The specific heat of water is a constant‚ with a value of 4.18 J/ g*oC. AIM: To determine the molar heat of solution for two different solids Equipment: * A calorimeter (made using 2 Styrofoam cups with a cardboard lid)

Evolution Lab Report Marcos Chapa July 3‚ 2013 BIO 101 Rebecca Avants The purpose of the lab I have conducted is to analyze how altering the finch’s environment would affect the evolution of the finches by isolating each population of finches from each other‚ placing them each on a different island. This influence on the species by the environment is called allopatric speciation. One population of the finches that are located Darwin Island‚ which is 1 km‚ and the other population of finches

CONCENTRATION GRADIENT ON THE RATE OF OSMOSIS Investigation Folio: Summative Stage 1 Biology: SEMESTER 1 2014 MARCIA SHAW - 151003X INTRODUCTION Diffusion: is when something spreads more widely from a higher concentration gradient to a lower concentration gradient. Diffusion is the process from which molecules‚ atoms or ions mingle together and move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration as a result to their kinetic energy. for example if you were to put a drop of

7‚ 2012 Bio. Report Problem: Dows light intensity and wavelength affect Photosynthesis? Introduction: Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct. It produces sugar and other organic compounds such as lipids and proteins. The sugars are then used to provide energy for the organism

’Neil 2002). The particular conditions that had to exist for this to apply were that the population had no mutation‚ had no natural selection‚ was a large population‚ had only random mating‚ and had no migration. For the cases to follow later in the lab‚ Cases 1 and 2 exemplify Hardy-Weinberg conditions. All of the others either have selection or not enough members in the population‚ which will be the most-closely observed

The concept is very similar to sudden expansion in pipe flow‚ except that hydraulic jumps occur in open-channel flow. At
