    the body are carbon dioxide‚ water and the carbonates of potassium and sodium. The latter has alkaline reaction. Tomatoes thus leave an alkaline ash in the process of oxidized by the body. This increases the alkalinity of the blood and decreases the urine and neutralizes the acid compounds of the body such as phosphates‚ urea and ammonia. It is‚ therefore‚ highly beneficial in the treatment of acidosis and other diseases associated with too much acid in the system. The presence of oxalate ions and

    Importance of Calcium Ions Alyssa Foels 12 February 2015 Kilfe Calcium is a cation‚ a positively charged atom‚ and it is essential to all living things. It was first discovered in 1808 by Humphrey Davy. When forming an ionic bond with other elements‚ calcium loses electrons to make its valence shell stable. This means that it has more protons than electrons‚ making it have a slight positive charge (Calcium). Calcium has many roles and functions in the human body. Calcium ions are the most abundant

    Christy Chan (5) BIOLOGY LAB REPORT Investigation of the effect of metal ions on enzyme activity Objective To study the effect of two heavy metal ions‚ lead (II) ions and silver ions on the enzyme activity of invertase. Introduction Hypothesis: The rate of enzyme reaction of invertase decreases and the reaction eventually stops as the heavy metal ions inhibit the enzyme reactions. Biological principle: Heavy metal ions are non-competitive inhibitors. They do not compete with the substrates

    exchange of positive and negative ions between reacting solutions of two ionic compounds. Thus‚ in this example the precipitate must be either silver chloride‚ AgCl or sodium nitrate‚ NaNO3. Sodium nitrate dissolves readily in water and is therefore soluble. Thus we can conclude that silver chloride is the insoluble precipitate. We can represent the formation of this precipitate by a net ionic equation: Ag+ +NO3 ̄ +Na++Cl ̄→AgCl+NO3 ̄+Na+ Net: Ag+ (aq)+Cl ̄ (aq)→AgCl(s) Ions present in the solution but

    is directly involved in this process. Calcium ions (Ca2+) are essential mediators of a wide variety of cellular activities‚ including the passing of information along neurons and between adjacent neurons. Hormonal regulation is also mediated by the proper functions of calcium and calcium ions in the body. Considering all of the roles that it plays‚ calcium is of the upmost physiological importance and is the most abundant mineral in the human body. Calcium is a chemical element depicted by the
