Alhia Harris October 18‚ 2011 Biology Lab report Proteins are very important throughout the body. They have a lot of functions in cells. Antibodies are proteins that help cells rebuild the cells when they are destroyed. Transport proteins move substances from one place to another. Regulatory proteins control cellular metabolism in a way that cells throughout the body can have the right amount of glucose in the blood. A common protein is an enzyme; in cells they speed up chemical reactions. For

called‚ respiratory exchange rate‚ or RER. An RER of 0.7 means that carbohydrates are being used for fuel‚ and a ratio of 1.0 means that only fatty acids are being used for fuel; of course‚ values can fall between. Methods: To observe the effects of prolonged exercise on the metabolic system the lab subject needed to walk on the treadmill at a rate that kept his heart rate at 60% of his maximum. The

component‚ and so on‚ until it reaches the source again. In contrast‚ a parallel circuit is a circuit in which the has more than one resistor and has multiple paths to move along. The main purpose of this lab was to prove the laws of Ohm and Kirchhoff. On another note‚ being able to take part in this lab taught my partner and I the fundamental skills of constructing series and parallel circuit and using a multimeter to calculate the current and voltage of a circuit. I believe that if we only have the

The Determination of the Concentration of Hard Water Ions by the Titration of EDTA By Hannah Denby Lab partners: Heidi Kiziah‚ Leonie Hamel University of Central Florida‚ CHM 2046L December 3rd‚ 2015 Abstract. The “hardness” of water is a common dilemma attributed by high concentrations of metals such as calcium and magnesium. This is a result of the properties of water; because it is a good solvent‚ impurities are easily dissolved. As water moves through soil and rock‚ it dissolves minute amounts

University of Texas at Tyler Lab 3C: Purification of L-Lactate Dehydrogenase By Affinity Chromatography on Cibacron-Blue Sepharose David Alexander 10-15-2014 Dr. Black Chem 4135.001 Abstract: Like the previous experiments‚ the ultimate goal of this lab was to purify the enzyme sample. However‚ this is the last lab for purification and high level techniques of purification were employed to achieve this. Dialysis was used first‚ lowering the small-molecule concentration within the sample. Finally

Introduction: Coccinellidae‚ which is more familiar known as the ladybug‚ comes from a family of small beetles. However‚ one may jump to conclusions after hearing their names‚ but ladybugs are not all females! Their color ranges from a red to a reddish-orange and even to a yellow color along with black spots on their hard-shell wing covers. Even though they are small bugs‚ they are very predatory. The ladybug’s mouth includes mandibles which is another word for their strong jaws (Hussain‚ et al

technique is: Number Moles Concentrated Solution = Number Moles Dilute Solution. An instrument called a spectrophotometer detects the amount of light that passes through the sample and the percent transmittance can be recorded from the meter. In the lab‚ multiple homogeneous solutions are made. There was not a way to determine the differences in concentrations‚ but the Spec 20 made it possible to measure the difference. The Beer-Lambert Law is a graph used to record
