M1- Discuss the role of energy in the body‚ describe the process of cell respiration and give three examples of how energy is used in the human body Every living cell needs energy. The form of energy that we use is chemical energy in the form of glucose that we get in our food‚ mainly from carbohydrates such as bread‚ pasta and potatoes. Living cells cannot function without energy‚ which can then lead to death. To release the energy from glucose‚ oxygen is added (oxidise glucose) by breathing continuously

protein vital to sustaining life‚ it works with vitamins and minerals as a biological catalyst‚ which lowers the activation energy for a reaction to occur. Each individual type of enzyme does a specific job‚ and they do not die‚ they are reused. For example‚ catalase is an enzyme found in almost all living cells that will break down hydrogen peroxide and turn it into water and oxygen. The breakdown of Hydrogen peroxide happens when it gets released from metabolism‚ and Materials: Yeast Solution 4 Test

In the early 1900’s the man was seen as the intellectual individual who takes care of their wife and family‚ who arrives home with the money and who was the supplier. However during the 1930’s this typical idea of the man’s role was extremely hard to keep ahold of due to The Great Depression. While the average woman worked on household dynamics and keeping the family afloat‚ the man was out looking for a job‚ or struggling to keep his current job. As a result‚ the average male came home at the end

Renewable Energy Summary Renewable energy flows involve natural phenomena such as sunlight‚ wind‚ tides‚ plant growth (biomess) and geothermal heat. According to the International Energy Agency (2002)‚ “Renewable energy is derived from natural processes that are replenished constantly. In its various forms‚ it derives directly from sun‚ or from heat generated deep within the earth. Included in the definition is electricity and heat generated from solar‚ wind‚ ocean‚ hydropower‚ biomass‚ geothermal

Carbon dioxide is both a vital requirement for producers – the first organisms in any food chain‚ and at times a dangerous waste product. Where plants use carbon dioxide during the Calvin cycle of photosynthesis‚ at night they also produce small quantities due to respiration. Fundamentally‚ carbon dioxide reacts with ribulose bisphosphate to produce glycerate 3-phosphate in the light independent reaction. In turn glycerate3-phosphate is reduced to triose phosphate using reduced NADP

leaning towards nuclear energy due to the amount of energy it can produce with very little resources. This topic is worth investigating since energy is basically a must‚ now in the 21st century. It is now considered an essential to have energy in our lives to maintain our standards of living. We have gone to many different sources of energy other than nuclear energy such as coal‚ solar‚ wind‚ oil and more‚ but many of those energy source have flaws too. Some sources of energy will reach the peak of

Hydrothermal Vents and its Organisms! A hydrothermal vent is a fissure in a planet’s surface from which geothermally heated water issues. Hydrothermal vents are commonly found near volcanically active places‚ areas where tectonic plates are moving apart‚ ocean basins‚ an hotspots Hydrothermal vents exist because the earth is both geologically active and has large amounts of water on its surface and within its crust. Common land types include hot springs‚ fumaroles and geysers. Under the sea
