Osmosis is a passive movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane moves from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. In this lab‚ we can determine the direction of diffusion of small molecules by measuring the diffusion of small molecules through dialysis tubing. This tubing acts as a selectively permeable membrane‚ and allow to pass larger molecules slowly. Introduction: Cells have kinetic energy and it causes the molecules of the cell to move around

and developmental processes‚ thus it is critical for plants to optimize the ethylene production at developmental transitions as well as during stress response. Ethylene is derived from the amino acid methionine‚ which in the first step is converted to S-adenosyl-methionine (AdoMet) by AdoMet synthetase3‚4. The 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylic acid Synthase (ACS) catalyzes the conversion of AdoMet to 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC)5‚ which is the rate-limiting step in ethylene biosynthesis

cellular respiration to produce ATP. This process takes place in chloroplasts‚ which is a plastid that contains chlorophyll and involves two interlinked reactions‚ which are light dependent reactions and light independent reactions. Throughout our lab experiment‚ we focused on the affect access of light has on carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide levels decrease as oxygen levels increase and glucose is produced when light dependent reactions occur. Light energy is absorbed by photo

The Kinetics of α-Chymotrypsin Introduction Chymotrypsin is a protease which cleaves proteins by a hydrolysis reaction‚ it does this by adding a molecule of water to a peptide bond. Although the hydrolysis reaction is thermodynamically favoured in the absence of a catalyst the half-life for a typical hydrolysis reaction by a protease is between 10 and 100 years‚ needless to say it is extremely slow1. Though this is true peptide bonds are hydrolysed within milliseconds in the body in the presence

which capacitors in series with resistors can be charged and discharged. The time constant RC will be found. Charging a capacitor. Consider the series circuit shown in Fig. 1. Let us assume that the capacitor is initially uncharged. When the switch S is open there is of course no current. If the switch is closed at t=0‚ charges begin to flow and an ammeter will be able to measure a current. The charges move until the potential across the capacitor plates is equal the potential between the battery’s

Diffusion and osmosis go hand-in-hand. Osmosis is generally the same as diffusion‚ however‚ deals solely with water. Osmotic pressure is the pressure of a solution against a semi-permeable membrane to prevent water from flowing into the membrane. In this lab‚ we are going to study tonicity; tonicity is the measure of this osmotic pressure and is the differential of pressure between two solutions separated by a selective membrane. To help identify the relative concentrations of solute particles of different
