Enzymes are catalysts that are used to speed up chemical reactions. Adding inorganic catalysts to reactants increase the rate of most chemical reactions. However‚ all enzymes are different and there are numerous amounts. Many enzymes are essential for life and reactions would not happen rapidly to maintain life with the help of enzymes. Specific enzymes lower the activation energy for specific reactions and shapes. Activation energy is required to start a chemical reaction. This occurs when energy

the heart rate to slow and blood vessels to dilate‚ which then leads to blood pools in the lower body and less blood going up to the brain. c. Compensatory mechanism that become activated include; increase sympathetic outflow leading to arteriolar vasoconstriction‚ venoconstriction‚ and increase in heart rate; d. Increase pressure in the aortic arch will activate the aortic arch reflex and cause increased parasympathetic stimulation of the heart.

Does caffeine affect the heart rate of Daphnia? Introduction In this experiment I aim to find out if caffeine has an affect on heart rate. Instead of using human subject‚ whom may already have a high tolerance to caffeine or could have ingested caffeine that day making the tests unfair‚ I will use Daphnia‚ a crustacean. They have on contact with caffeine making it fair. It will be easier to observe as it has a translucent body‚ making it able to see the heart beating under a microscope. It will

ADI Lab Report Every living thing is made up of cells. All cells have some part in common. Some multicellular cells are highly specialized and carry out some very important functions. One of the special cells are red blood cells‚ their functions‚ transporting oxygen from the lungs to the cells in the body. Red blood cells look like little discs. Red blood cells can change their shape‚ this ability allowing them to squeeze through capillaries without breaking. Our task is to Design and carry out an

Influence of Concentration on the Activity of Amylase Title Influence of Concentration on the Activity of Amylase Abstract Does more or less concentration speed up the reaction rate of amylase in starch? In this experiment diluted solutions of amylase were created and then tested using a starch solution‚ I2KI for reaction times. The answer to the question was proved to be that more concentration of amylase speeds up the reaction time. Introduction The enzyme‚ amylase is found in

The lesson is divided into 3 labs that can be completed in any order. After labs have been completed‚ facilitate a class discussion where students summarize and compare findings and relate how their findings support (or refute) Newton’s Laws of Motion LAB 1: How fast can it go? Put one car at the top of the ramp and let it roll down. Use a stopwatch to record the time the car rolled. Use this information to calculate the acceleration of the car. Measure the distance the car rolled using the

Question: How does the number of sit-ups affect your heart rate. Independent Variable (IV): Number of sit-ups ( 0‚5‚10‚15‚20). I chose these 5 increments because they are consistent numbers in which everyone can participate without it being to much. Dependent Variable: heart rate( BPM) +/- 4 ( number of beats in 15 seconds multiplied by 4). Materials: timer‚ flat surface‚ movable clothing Background: In this experiment I will test your heart rate and if it increases or decreases with exercise (sit-ups)
