The Effect of Temperature on the Rate of Yeast Respiration Abstract Carbon dioxide is a waste product of yeast respiration. A series of experiment was conducted to answer the question; does temperature have an effect on yeast respiration? If the amount of carbon dioxide is directly related to temperature‚ then varying degrees of temperature will result in different rates of respiration in yeast. The experiment will be tested using yeast and sugar at different water temperatures. I

Design Experiment to investigate the effect of the concentration of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate on the rate of photosynthesis using Cobomba plant. Aim: The aim of the experiment is to investigate the effect of the concentration of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate (NaHCO3) on the rate of photosynthesis using a Cobomba plant. Hypothesis: As the concentration of NaHCO3 increases the rate of photosynthesis of the Cobomba plant should increase‚ as there is a greater presence of a carbon dioxide‚ obtained

The effects of environmental temperature on respiration rates of mice were observed in this experiment. I hypothesized that when environmental temperature decreased‚ the respiration rate of mice would increase. I predicted that if environmental temperature decreased‚ the respiration rate of mice would increase. The respiration rate of the endotherm was measured using the Qubit/Vernier system and the S152 CO2 gas sensor‚ a device that measured the CO2 concentration in the air. The independent variable

Cellular respiration is defined as an enzyme mediated process in which organic compounds such as glucose is broken down into simpler products with the release of energy (Duka‚ Diaz and Villa‚ 2009). It is a series of metabolic processes and oxidation-reduction reactions. Oxidation of substrates‚ such as glucose‚ is a fundamental part of cellular respiration (Mader‚ 2009). As a catabolic process‚ it may or may not require the presence of oxygen. The process that requires oxygen is called aerobic

Abstract: This lab tests how temperature and pH affect how enzymes will function. The lab showed that temperature will denature an enzyme when past its optimal working temperature and won’t denature in cold temperatures‚ but have slowed molecular activity. pH will also have an affect on an enzymes efficiency‚ when out of optimal pH the enzyme will not function as it is supposed to and if to far out of the optimal pH the enzyme will change shape and no longer work. Enzymes also showed to be reusable

An Increase in Light Intensity Increases the Rate of Respiration M. Chauntise‚ S. Shaika‚ R. Shantal INTRODUCTION The sun plays a vital role in sustaining an entire living world whether indirectly or directy using a transformation process called photosynthesis. This process assists in nourishing plants and keeping them alive. For example‚ trees grow very tall in the rainforest where there is an abundance of water in order to reach as much light as they can. For this reason‚ in order to survive the

hypotheses based on predictions questions. First‚ yeast will metabolize sugar and produce a gas. This is because yeast is a living organism and all living organisms like yeast must use energy (such as sugar) to obtain energy. Yeast will metabolize sugar and gives off carbon dioxide as a by-product. For the second hypothesis‚ we were expecting that yeast will produce a gas when sugar is available. For the third hypothesis‚ we did not expect yeast to produce a gas when no sugar or other food is available

in neutral pH. To do this the experiment was carried out so that tubes containing a reaction solution of the Amylase enzyme and starch were simultaneously mixed. The reactions were then introduced to I2-KI‚ which stopped the reactions‚ at two minute intervals. Each of these trials was repeated three times to ensure proper accuracy. After concluding the reactions they were placed into a spectrophotometer (A580) for analysis. Graphing the values of the absorbance to time for each pH it was found
