Lab 5Cellular Respiration Introduction: Cellular respiration is an ATP-producing catabolic process in which the ultimate electron acceptor is an inorganic molecule‚ such as oxygen. It is the release of energy from organic compounds by metabolic chemical oxidation in the mitochondria within each cell. Carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ and fats can all be metabolized as fuel‚ but cellular respiration is most often described as the oxidation of glucose‚ as follows: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + 686 kilocalories

AP Biology Photosynthesis Lab Bethany Boyer Due 11/12/14 Lab Write-Up Questions First Experiment 1) The independent variable in this experiment was the presence of CO2 (carbon dioxide). The dependent variable was the speed at which the leaf disks started to float. 2) In the leaf tissue‚ the bicarbonate and light are combining to carry out photosynthesis. This will cause oxygen to collect in the leaf tissue‚ causing it to rise. 3) If we were to boil the leaf disks‚ the reaction would most likely

Name the organisms that make up each. Autotrophs use the suns energy to produce their food. Heterotrophs consume other organisms to obtain food. Plants Animals 3. ___Sun__ is the ultimate source of energy for all living things on Earth based on the cycle of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. 4. What

ADI Lab investigation: Photosynthesis Introduction and goals: In our experiment we worked with photosynthesis‚ which is the process of light energy‚ CO2 and H2O being turned into food for the plant. CO2+H2O+ Light energy=C6H12O+O2 is the formula for photosynthesis. Our group hypothesis was trying to determine weather o2‚ water‚ or the nutrients of the soil determine the mass of the water. The guided question was “Where does the mass that makes up a plant come from?” Methods:

HYPOTHESIS Using train conductors as representatives for all of human kind we can postulate with some accuracy the percent of the population of Earth that are complete and total assholes. If you have ever lived in a small town with train tracks running through it you will know that the conductor of the train is required to sound the whistle at every crossing. This is a 4-part whistle; 2 long‚ 1 short‚ 1 long. My hypothesis is that we can calculate what percentage of the population of planet Earth

Photosynthesis Green plants absorb light energy using chlorophyll in their leaves. They use it to react carbon dioxide with water to make a sugar called glucose. The glucose is used in respiration‚ or converted into starch and stored. Oxygen is produced as a by-product. This process is called photosynthesis. Temperature‚ carbon dioxide concentration and light intensity are factors that can limit the rate of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis summary Photosynthesis [photosynthesis: The chemical change

Based off the results from this lab the student was able to determine and have an overall better understanding of the variables that affect the rate of photosynthesis in a plant. The first variable the student tested in the lab was 30cm of light with CO2 present. The student started this trial with all 10-leaf disks and timed how many leaf disks came up every minute for 15 minutes. One minute into the trial and the student recorded that no leaf disks had yet to rise to the top of the solution. At

Biology practical 10 Photosynthesis January‚ the 28th‚ 2013 Done by: Instructor: Introduction Respiration is the number of processes which leads to the oxidation of organic compounds to produce the energy. There are several types of respiration‚ and one of them is aerobic. During the aerobic respiration‚ human uses the oxygen from atmosphere and produce carbon dioxide. A cardiorespiratory system which includes lungs‚ heart‚ blood vessels and others is responsible for all the processes
