ASSIGNMENT – LESSON 8 1. Explain in 2-3 sentences each‚ the role of water in the body for 5 different physiological processes. • Fluid intake and fluid excretion: There is usually a balance between intake and excretion of water. If the water balance becomes unbalanced‚ this can greatly affect various bodily functions such as blood pressure‚ blood sugar levels or brain function. This imbalance will also create a thirst reaction and by the time we perceive this‚ our body is already mildly

Factors that affect the rate of fermentation are the nutrient availability and the concentration of that nutrient. In the Barfing Bag experiment‚ our control group which was granulated sugar worked the best against splenda‚ artificial‚ and stevia which a sugar substitute that comes from a plant and has 0 calories. In the barfing bag experiment we had three bags with yeast and then we added different types of sugars to test which type of sugar creates the most carbon dioxide or which bag inflates

Throughout the experiments the size of the balloons stayed about the same size except for in experiment 3. Also the bottles that had more sugar had a stronger scent of alcohol and also contained more foam on top of the liquid. All yeast in each of the bottles seemed to have fermented at the same time and stopped/slowed down‚ the growing process‚ at the same time. Bottle 3 also would always overflow and the foam would fill the ballon in every experiment. Another trend with bottle 3 was that in the

Vaginal yeast infection (Candida Vaginalis) Vaginal yeast infection is an infection of the vagina‚ most commonly due to the fungus Candida albicans. Causes Most women will have a vaginal yeast infection at some time. Candida albicans is a common type of fungus. It is often present in small amounts in the vagina‚ mouth‚ digestive tract‚ and on the skin. Usually it does not cause disease or symptoms. Candida and the many other germs or microorganisms that normally live in the vagina keep each other

Precision and Accuracy in the Laboratory Precision – This is a word used to describe the quality; fact or condition of being exact and accurate.(1) Accuracy – This is a word to describe the quality or state of being correct or precise. (2) AIM: The aim of the practical is to assess the accuracy and precision of three types of pipette. Abstract: In this experiment‚ I am going to be assessing the accuracy of a 10ml graduated pipette‚ a 1ml blowout pipette and a Gilson P1000 automatic pipette. This will

Biology Fermentation Practical "A comparison of the respiration of yeast in different sugar substrates" Aim: The aim was to compare the respiration of yeast in different substrates of sugars‚ i.e. between a monosaccharide (glucose) and a disaccharide (maltose) Theory: There are three types of Carbohydrates‚ monosaccharides‚ disaccharides‚ and polysaccharides. The two‚ which I will be looking at‚ are‚ monosaccharide (glucose) and the disaccharide (maltose) Classification and major properties of

How to cure nail yeast infection? Yeast infection in the nail bed or also with known as Onychomycosis‚ is one of the health problems that can happen to anyone. Symptoms onychomycosis is as inflammation‚ swelling‚ yellowing color and texture change in nails. Although sometimes painful‚ but if the infection has spread the pain caused even this condition is unavoidable. Onychomycosis itself is triggered by certain conditions‚ such as not normally the pH levels of the skin‚ immune system weakening

Unit 1 Lab 1 Data on Fixed Line vs. Cellular Debate June 16‚ 2014 Debate the Pros and Cons to having a purely cellular network vs. having a purely fixed line network Pro ’s: Cost: Most wireline phone companies charge more than what you ’d pay for most alternatives‚ and some are taxed more as well. There are some locations where getting new wired phoneservice is prohibitively expensive or even impossible. Long Distance and extra features like Call Waiting are normally included with alternative

disorders. I want to study aging as a potent carcinogen using yeast as a model. Aging is indeed a potent carcinogen. Somatic mutation theory states that cancer is a genetic disease.It is so because cancer cells proliferate at a rapid pace as a result of mutations in their genes they have accumulated in themselves over the course of their lifetime. Hence the key points are Aging and Genetic instabilities that follows with it. I want to study yeast cells as a model as they are largely analogous to stem

Yeast Infection Treatment and Prevention Yeast infection may attack the inside and outside the body. It causes the itching‚ irritation‚ and discharge. Yeast infection treatment and prevention can be done by conventional steps and home remedies step. Here is the solution you may choose to treat and prevent this infection. When you come to the doctor for this case‚ the doctor will suggest you to the antifungal cream or suppository. It usually comes in the form of a cream‚ ointment‚ or suppository
