The significance of this plasma glycerol means that the body is in lipolysis (fatty acid breakdown). Glycerol has been identified as a tracer enzyme for lipolysis because muscle cannot breakdown glycerol. So the glycerol has to be transported to the liver to be turned into energy. The breakdown of fats is not instant because skeletal muscle has to receive the fatty acids from

and adding water. e) Hydrophobic and hydrophilic: Hydrophobic avoids water‚ whilst hydrophilic is attracted by it. 2. a) Hydrolysis of maltose: glucose + glucose = maltose + H2O b) The condensation reaction that forms a triglyceride: Glycerol + 3 fatty acids = triglyceride + 3H2O c) Hydrolysis of starch to remove a single molecule: Starch + H2O = 3 glucose 3. The transparency of water is important to life because it allows organisms living in water to absorb the sunlight and carry

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

ether soluble. The hydrolysis of trimyristin follows acidification and yields glycerol and myristic acid. After the myristic acid is collected we will be using its melting point to determine whether we successfully isolated pure form of the crystal. To extract myristic acid from our “pure” trimyristin we need perform hydrolysis and break a couple of those bonds to get it.

Results: Since the mass of the ball bearing used in this experiment was very light‚ 20 balls were measured and the result was divided by 20 for better accuracy. This procedure was repeated for the sizes and the results are as follows: Diameter (mm) Mass (kg) 2 0.04 3 0.075 4 0.11 To find out the densities of the three balls‚ the following formula was used: Density= (mass of the ball)/(Volume of the ball)= mass/(4/3 π r^3 ) Density of 2mm ball = (0.04⁄1000)/(4/3 π 〖(0.001)〗^3

KF reagent. 3. Add approximately 100mg of Di-sodium tartrate dihydrate in the kettle and perform titrations by method no. 47 of the auto-titrator. This is called standardization to find the strength of the reagent. 4. Add known amount of sample glycerol (approx 60μl) to the kettle and again perform titration using method no. 2 of the auto-titrator. We get the end point of titration when the voltage for the paltinum pin electrodes stabilize. 5. We get the volume of the KF reagent dispensed in the

Molecular shapes play a part in how close two molecules can come to each other as when water molecules provide a solvent for other organic molecules. Cells are dynamic structures with constant activity The carbohydrates are unique in forming long chain polymer and also branching these chains. This is more complicated than protein where only 20 amino acids can form a long single chain. Here there can be numerous kinds of bonding forming a straight chain or long chain polymer.
