In this experiment‚ the class examined how the rate of photosynthesis was affected by different light colors at different distances in shoots of a Cabomba plant. The plants were placed in two different beakers‚ one with recently boiled and cooled distilled water and the other with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution. The three different color photoflood lamps used for this experiment were white‚ red‚ and green at four distances of thirty‚ sixty‚ ninety‚ and one hundred-twenty centimeters away

THE EFFECT OF GLUCOSE CONCENTRATION ON ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION IN YEAST INTRODUCTION: Yeast‚ also known as a saccharomyces cerevisiae‚ is single celled eukaryotic cells that are in the kingdom fungi and are unicellular organisms which normally reproduce asexually by budding at a very high rate. Scientists quite often decide to work with yeast because of its features fast growing rate and the fact that yeast ’s DNA can be easily manipulated. Some types of yeast can be found naturally on plant or in

Toxicology Lab 1. In this investigation‚ a wide range of concentrations of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) solution were created and the effects that they had on radish seeds were tested. This ultimately created a doseresponse experiment in which it was detectable whether or not radish seeds were a reliable bioassay for the toxicity of NaCl. The goal of this experiment was to determine a correlation between toxicity and seed germination/radicle

Lab 5 The Diffraction Grating Chinua McDonald Objective: To measure the wavelength of light with a diffraction grating. Theory: The two types of diffraction gratings are the transmission and reflection gratings. They are made by ruling on a piece of glass or metal a number of evenly spaced lines with a fine diamond point. Diffraction phenomena can be analyzed in terms of Huygens’ principle‚ according to which every point on the wave front of a wave should be considered as a source

Question 2 a.) Rubisco is a key component in photosynthesis. It is an enzyme involved in the fixation of atmospheric carbon dioxide. b.) Due to global warming‚ the increased temperature can influence Rubisco which can catalyses oxygenation over carboxylation. During carboxylation CO2 is fixed and raised temperature enhancing oxygenation. c.) Level of PGA depends on Rubisco with who is going to bind. Rubisco is an enzyme that reacts with CO2 and O2. The reaction with O2 competes with carboxylation

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

indicated by a very pale pink color. To calculate the molarity of NaOH‚ the following equation was used MNaOH x VNaOH = MKHP x VKHP therefore the molarity was .125 M. INTRODUCTION This lab experiment covers the preparation of standard solution and the acid/base titration. The first part of the lab is to prepare a standard solution of Potassium hydrogen per. A standard solution is a solution of known concentration‚ in which it is prepared using exacting techniques to make sure that the molarity

Due to the fact that it would be closer to the light source‚ the light would be slightly more intense‚ therefore the rate of photosynthesis would be slightly more advanced‚ causing a lower absorption. I also believed that Sample 1 the sample wrapped in aluminum would have the highest absorbance due to a lack of

PRACTICAL 1 POST-LAB QUESTIONS Part 1 4. Line of best fit‚ it decreases twists that a/some deviant point(s) could bring about due to the errors that may have happened during the experimental process. This is better than connecting all the data points and assuming all the points collected from the experiment are totally accurate as there are still chances for the experimental errors to happen throughout the experiment process. 5. Yes‚ if the absorbance of the sample appeared to be outside the linear
