Design Experiment: Enzyme Inhibitors. Research question: What is the effect of adding lead nitrate solution on the activity of amylase enzyme? Aim: To test the effect of adding nitrate solution on the activity of amylase. Background Information: Inhibitors are molecules which repress or prevent another molecule from engaging in a reaction. They are substances that attach themselves onto an enzyme and reduce or prevent the enzyme’s ability to catalyse reactions. Competitive Inhibitors are inhibitors

Describe the physiological approach to the study of the mind. Explain how Donders experiment can be repeated in a modern laboratory using the physiological approach to the study of the mind Donder’s work attempts to describe the processes going on in the mind‚ by analyzing cognitive activity into separate stages. Until Donder’s work‚ many scientists had assumed that the mental operations involved in responding to a stimulus occurred instantaneously. Donder was particularly interested in "timing

The milgram experiment. The three people involved were: the one running the experiment‚ the subject of the experiment a volunteer‚ and a person pretending to be a volunteer. These three persons fill three distinct roles: the Experimenter an authoritative role‚ the Teacher a role intended to obey the orders of the Experimenter‚ and the Learner the recipient of stimulus from the Teacher. The subject and the actor both drew slips of paper to determine their roles‚ but unknown to the subject‚ both slips

Social influence is defined as individual mental process (conviction‚ perception‚ thought‚ reaction) and behaviour are being changed in a social group interaction Milgram’s experiment is to study the effect of obedience to authority. Study was performed to determine what factors influenced people to submit to authority and to what extent people conform an order against their conscience despite knowing it causes distress and harm to another person.

Biotechnology‚ Mapua Institute of Technology ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ solubility class of various organic compounds are to be determined. The main objective of the experiment is to identify an unknown compound through the use of preliminary tests such as examination of physical state‚ color‚ odor‚ and ignition properties. Also‚ solubility tests were used to further examine an unknown compound’s solubility class. In this experiment‚ the apparatus used are micro test tubes and droppers for mixing

Parachute experiment Aim: The aim was to find the effect of holes on a parachute‚ varying their size and number. Hypothesis: 1. By increasing the number of holes‚ the time it will take to the parachute to reach the ground will be longer and its flight will be more balanced. 2. By increasing the size of the hole on the parachute‚ the time it will take to the parachute to reach the ground will be shorter and its flight will be less balanced. Apparatus: - garbage bag (squared shape

Introduction The major component of eggshells is calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Calcium carbonate cannot be dissolved in water‚ but can dissolve in an acid using the reaction: 2HCl(aq)+CaCO3(s) Ca2+(aq)+CO2(g)+H2O+2HCl-(aq) This reaction is not used to titrate the CaCO3 because it is very slow when the reaction is close to the endpoint. Instead adding an excess of acid to dissolve all of the CaCO3 and then titrating the remaining H3O+ with NaOH solution can achieve the determination of the amount

The aim of the experiment was to examine the effects of consuming lactate before and during a prolonged exercise. The data shows that the consumption of the lactate actually did work and the performance of the subject was better than the previous three experiments of dieting. This was due to the lactate that was consumed in the CytoMax. Azevedo‚ Tietz‚ Two-Feathers‚ Paull‚ and Chapman (2007) state that CytoMax contains polylactate which speeds up the delivery of substrates and is thought to help
