The Effect of pH on the Rate of Osmosis Using a Glucose Solution Melissa Werderitch Biology 157 11/6/06 Introduction In a journal article written by Florian Lang‚ osmosis is essentially explained as the flow of water from one area to another that are separated by a selectively permeable membrane to equalize concentrations of particles in the two locations (Lang‚ 1997). Osmosis is able to maintain osmotic pressure and regulate a cell’s volume. In a hypotonic () or hypertonic () environment

water (H2O). CO2 can combine with water to form carbonic acid during cellular respiration. Phenolphthalein can be used to help detect any changes in pH because of production of CO2 during cellular respiration. Phenolphthalein usually appears clear or colorless in acidic solutions‚ and red in basic solutions. Procedures: In the first lab‚ seven test tubes were attained and six of them were filled with the solutions that were listed (Na Pyruvate‚ MgSO4‚ NaF‚ Glucose‚ Water‚ and yeast suspension)

Experiment 21: Salmonella and food contamination Purpose /Objective Objective: To test salmonella in spinach sample over five lab periods. Food contamination of salmonella can cause serious illness. Only small numbers of salmonella need to be found for a food product to be considered contaminated. Tests used Pre-enrichment- lactose broth Selective enrichment broth- with Tetrathionate Brilliant Broth Selective Plating- Brilliant Green Agar Isolation of salmonella conformation- is preformed

The goal in this experiment was to test the effect of adenosine triphosphate in lighting the firefly’s lantern in temperature effects‚ pH effects‚ and salt effect. Materials and Methods Powdered firefly lanterns were obtained from Carolina Biological. The lights in the room were turned off. The dropper from the bottle of ATP powder was removed. A pipette was used to add 1 mL of

fermentation actually occurred. The tests used to confirm the fermentation were a gas production test‚ pH test‚ Gram stain‚ and turbidity test. The results showed during the conversion of milk to Kefir there was gas produced‚ a decrease in pH‚ more bacteria present‚ and an increase in absorbency. The results proved that fermentation occurred with three positive confirmatory results from the gas production‚ pH‚ and turbidity tests‚ while the Gram stain test acted as a negative confirmatory test.

Introduction Human cilia play a critical part in human processes. Human cilia are hair-like projections that extend from the surface of a cell. Cilia are capable of rhythmic motion and acts together from separate strands so that the cell is capable of movement. Flagella are a whip-like structure that is found in cells as well that allow for the movement of the cell. Human cilia are characterized as having “metachronal rhythm" and this means is a rhythm that "changes time" to produce wave. The beating

The first 4 formulations by using acid method while the other four formulations by adding different thickening agent. The pH of dadih produced using the eighth formulation is 6.05 while the o Brix obtained is 17.0. On the other hand‚ the viscosity is 0.6594. For sensory evaluation‚ the scores obtained for texture‚ flavour‚

The purpose of this experiment was to determine the weight percentage of copper in brass. This was achieved by performing a redox titration known as iodometry. Copper‚ which was obtained from the brass‚ was used to react with iodide to produce iodine. Iodine was then titrated with thiosulfate. In this experiment‚ the amount of titrant dispensed correlates with the amount of copper; therefore‚ the amount of copper in brass was calculated by using the data recorded. In this experiment‚ the analyte
