contain both starch and fibre. The digestible carbohydrates such as starch and sugar are broken into simpler molecules by enzymes in the saliva‚ in juice produced by the pancreas‚ and in the lining of the small intestine. Starch is digested in two steps. First‚ an enzyme in the saliva and pancreatic juice breaks the starch into molecules called maltose. Then an enzyme in the lining of the small intestine splits the maltose into glucose molecules that can be absorbed into the blood. Glucose is carried

INTRODUCTION The Gram Negative lab had two parts; the aim of the first part is to determine the concentration of gram negative bacteria in a water sample collected from a creek near Providence Road‚ Strickling. Gram negative bacteria have a cytoplasmic membrane‚ a thin peptidoglycan layer‚ and an additional outer membrane composed of phospholipids and lipopolysaccharides. Because gram negative bacteria have a relatively thin cell wall when compared to gram positive organisms‚ they are consequently

Diffusion and Osmosis Lab Introduction • What molecules can pass through a semi-permeable membrane? In this lab study we tested carbohydrates such as starch and glucose‚ as well as solutions like Benedict’s and Lugol’s to see if they would cross the membrane of a cell but since we can’t actually see that happen we used dialysis tubing (acts as the cell membrane). • My prediction was that glucose and Benedict’s could pass the semi-permeable membrane but starch and Lugol’s wouldn’t be able to

xxx1 xxxxxx Ms. xxxx Biology 20 November 2013 Osmosis Lab Problem: What’s the order of the concentration for each solution and how does it affect the movement of water? Hypothesis: Experimenter thinks the order of the solutions according to their concentration is D‚A‚E‚C‚B‚ from smallest. And the water will pass through semipermeable tubing bag from low to high concentration to thin the concentration inside the bag. Osmosis is a diffusion of water particles and is one of the passive transport

My First Lab Report: Diffusion and Osmosis To begin‚ this is my first time doing an experiment and a lab report for biology’s class. Although‚ it was a little hard at the beginning‚ my team and I got the hang of it and we finished it on time. It was actually kind of fun. There were three steps in the experiment: 3.1 A – Molecular Movement: In this session‚ I was observing a sample and determining if there was a movement or not. 3.1B –Diffusion through semi-permeable membrane dialysis tube: In this

Scientific Writing and Standard Components of a Lab Report INTRODUCTION Writing is a powerful tool. Effective communication is necessary to succeed in any field. As a professional‚ you must communicate with both your colleagues‚ and the community at large. Writing is the means of showing the value of your work. The specific style of writing in science is based on the unique audience of readers. In addition‚ writing allows one to organize one’s thoughts and clarify ideas‚ and it fosters abstract

Kathleen Kramas Cells and Heredity Lab Tuesday 2:00-4:50 22 OCTOBER 2012 Membrane Permeability Decreases as Molecular Size Increases Introduction: Red blood cells are vital to organisms functioning properly. They are microscopic cells that carry oxygen from the lungs to all the tissues throughout the body. Upon transporting oxygen‚ red blood cells also exports waste‚ such as carbon dioxide‚ to the lungs where it can be expelled. Red blood cells are made up of hemoglobin which is surrounded by a
