    Introduction Glucose is very important in our daily lives. It gives us energy to carry out all of our activities. Cells in our bodies need glucose to respire and in the process release the energy we need. Glucose is also a type of carbohydrate. It has a chemical formula of C6H12O6 and is a monosaccharide reducing sugar (Kolej Mara Banting – Students’ Handbook for Biology HL Year 1). It is the simplest form of carbohydrate. In this experiment‚ sulphuric acid‚ H2SO4 and potassium permanganate

    the experiment‚ the blood glucose concentration for Patient A is 5.6 mmol/L(Refer to Table 1). The blood glucose level for Patient A is normal as 5.6mmol/L is in the normal range. Urine sample from Patient A was tested and it is shown that there was no glucose and sodium present. The results showed that Patient A is healthy and could act as a control in this investigation. Secondly‚ patient B is suspected to suffer from diabetes mellitus. The blood glucose concentration for Patient B is 111mmol/L

    THE EFFECT OF GLUCOSE CONCENTRATION ON ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION IN YEAST INTRODUCTION: Yeast‚ also known as a saccharomyces cerevisiae‚ is single celled eukaryotic cells that are in the kingdom fungi and are unicellular organisms which normally reproduce asexually by budding at a very high rate. Scientists quite often decide to work with yeast because of its features fast growing rate and the fact that yeast ’s DNA can be easily manipulated. Some types of yeast can be found naturally on plant or in

    The aim of this experiment was to investigate the effect that a glucose concentration has on the rate of fermentation. This was done by adding a variety of different glucose concentration into a test tube‚ siting in a water bath. The carbon dioxide would be collected in the test tube and therefore would measure the rate of fermentation. The results parsley supported the hypothesis that‚ “If the glucose concentration increases‚ the rate of fermentation increases‚ therefore the more carbon dioxide

    Sugar Metabolism Title: The effectiveness of glucose and fructose metabolism in individuals of resting and exercising observed through blood glucose concentration. Aim: To study the mechanisms of the body involved in absorbing and metabolizing sugar in the form of glucose and fructose and examine the effect of exercise on the rate of removal of glucose from the bloodstream. Introduction: The blood glucose concentration in the blood is interceded by the human body via negative feedback mechanism

    Estimating Osmolarity by change in weight Abstract Water flows in and out of cells in an attempt to attain a state of equilibrium. The concentration of solutes to solvent in the cells environment is the cause of the water flow. Plant and animal cells can be negatively affected or positively affected due to the concentration balance in their environment. Potato cells were used to see the affects of sucrose in different concentrations. In some

    are carrying out an investigation to find out how different concentrations of glucose affect osmosis in potato cells. Osmosis is the passive process of diffusing water which means within this experiment particles of water will move from a lower concentrated area to an area of higher concentration ; in this case it will be a concentration of glucose. Diffusion is when particles move from an area of high concentration to low concentration ; for example when a smell of cooking spreads through the house
