Cellular Processes Lab # 9 Biology 2010 By‚ Jani Hagen U#74644799 November 21‚ 2014 Abstract All cells undergo cellular resperation to produce energy. Common sources of energy include glucose‚ fructose‚ sucrose‚ startch‚ and fatty acids. The process varies depending on the fuel the cell is using. This report will show these differences by exopsing the yeast to several different conditions. The rate of the fermentation can be tracked by noting the carbon dioxide production at steady intervals

THE PROCESS OF FERMENTATION THROUGH DIFFERENT KINDS OF SUGARS In order to produce ethyl alcohol fermentation‚ we had to determine what sugars used‚ such as glucose (a single sugar) sucrose (table sugar) and lactose (milk sugar) will react with yeast to produce ethyl alcohol fermentation. My hypothesis is that the sugar lactose would produce the highest amount of bubbles and ferment. INTRODUCTION: The significance of fermentation is a lengthy process that has been practiced by humankind

INTRO: Cellular respiration is a process that happens in all living eukaryotic cells. What cellular respiration does is turn food often carbohydrates into energy for our bodies. Cellular respiration starts with a carbohydrates sugar called glucose. What it does is alter and break down the six carbon molecule glucose and altering it creating two three carbon molecules called pyruvic acids in an anaerobic process called glycolosis (Cellular respiration). What this process does is create two ATP molecules

Dialysis of starch‚ glucose and sucrose Introduction: Research question: Does the dialysis tube only allow certain substances to pass through the pores because of their size? Dependent and Independent variables: Independent variables: The temperature of the classroom The size of the molecules The size of the pores in the tube The concentration of the indicators Dependent variables: The substance will either pass the pores of the tube or not The result will vary in darkness (color) Controlled

The aim of this experiment was to show the water potentials of young‚ old and damaged potatoes and different sucrose concentrations (0.15‚ 0.20‚ 0.25‚ 0.30‚ 0.35 and 0.50). It was expected that the potatoes would lose weight as the potatoes would have lower water potential when placed in a solution ‚ and in this can be taken from the theory of osmosis which states that “the passive diffusion of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane down a concentration gradient” (Taylor and Bruenn

often found fruits. It is a five-sided sugar bound by glucopyranosyl and hydroxide ions. The five other sugars were sucrose‚ sucralose‚ aspartame‚ starch‚ and glucose. Sucrose is a disaccride found in table sugar. It is a five-sided sugar and a six-sided sugar held together by an oxygen. Sucralose is also a disaccride held together by an oxygen. The difference between sucralose and sucrose is that

(Source: Final examination‚ Apr 2013) Q1. Sucrose is the organic compound commonly known as table sugar or saccharose. Figure 1.1 shows the structure of sucrose and the process in which sucrose is broken down into its monomers. [pic] Figure 1.1 (i) Identify monomer X‚ monomer Y and process A. (3 marks) (ii) When Benedict test was performed on sucrose‚ it was observed that the blue colour remained unchanged

Abstract Research will be done and two experiments will be conducted to evaluate ethanol as a fuel‚ the experiments are Fermentation and Calorimetry. Fermentation will find the best combination of sugar and yeast for optimum ethanol production and the Calorimetry experiments test ethanol against other alcohols and fuels to see how it matches up in terms of energy production. Fermentation shows glucose and baker’s yeast as the fastest producers of ethanol and the calorimetry proves that ethanol and

Monosaccharide also called SIMPLE SUGAR‚ any of the basic compounds that serve as the building blocks of carbohydrates. Monosaccharides are polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones; that is‚ they are molecules with more than one hydroxyl group (-OH)‚ and a carbonyl group (C=O) either at the terminal carbon atom (aldose) or at the second carbon atom (ketose). The carbonyl group combines in aqueous solution with one hydroxyl group to form a cyclic compound (hemi-acetal or hemi-ketal). Monosaccharides are

rate of alcoholic fermentation using various carbohydrates. Hypothesis: If the yeast is placed in 5% glucose or sucrose solutions‚ then carbon dioxide production will increase over time. If boiled yeast is placed in a 5% sucrose solution‚ then carbon dioxide production will remain constant. Variables Independent variable: Carbohydrate solutions (5% solutions of glucose and sucrose) and boiled yeast Dependent variable: Rate of reaction of alcoholic fermentation as calculated by size of CO2 bubble
