Effects of hyperventilation on CO2 and pH levels Alidrin Armandico Physiology Lab 142 Egle Ortega Aprill 25‚ 2014 Abstract The aim of this experiment was to analyze how pH and carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the blood change during hyperventilation and how the renal system compensates for this condition. Hyperventilation decreases CO2‚ increases pH‚ and lowers H+ levels which then results to respiratory alkalosis. In the experiment‚ we used the PhysioEx 8.0 software to simulate hyperventilation

The Effect of Concentration‚ pH and Temperature on Enzyme Activity Biology For Majors October 4‚ 2012 Abstract We examined the reaction an enzyme has when its concentration‚ pH and temperature are altered. In order to do this‚ we added different levels of pH into different test tubes with the enzyme (sucrose)‚ and substrate (sucrose)‚ and we then inverted the tube. The higher pH produced more enzyme activity. Temperature effects enzyme activity by decreasing its stability when the temperature

language? Well I’ll be telling you about one of them… biology (If you hadn’t already guessed that from the title). Biology is a useful tool for anyone to have‚ not only doctors and biochemists. It can help you when dealing with medical concerns that may arise in your future. After all‚ it’s always good to have a general idea of what your doctor is talking about. Understanding your body is key to living a long and healthy life. Biology is a very important part of everyday life‚ whether we realize

Lab #5: Refraction of Light Theory: Refraction can be defined as the bending of a wave when it enters a medium which causes it to have some reduced speed. In terms of light‚ refraction occurs when the ray passes through some medium which slows its speed; such as water or glass. In this instance the ray tends to bend towards the normal of the medium. The amount of bending or refraction which occurs can be calculated using Snell’s Law (). Objective: To measure the index of refraction of Lucite

Biology is a natural science concerned with the function‚ growth‚ structure‚ evolution and distribution of organisms. It is the science of life‚ involving the study of all living things ranging from the atomic to ecosystem level. Far from being a science restricted to universities and laboratories‚ the principles and findings of biological sciences have uses in everyday life. Human Health · When people get sick‚ they visit the doctor‚ who is a practitioner of medicine‚ the branch of biology
