turning the milk from a soluble product to an insoluble product. Besides‚ the enzyme catalase is used in the medical industry. Catalase helps break down hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water. This enzyme is used for dressing up wounds. After its catabolism‚ oxygen will heal up wounds faster. In short‚ enzymes help us humans not only inside our bodies‚ but also in the real world by being used in various industries. Enzymes are biological catalysts that operate at the temperatures‚ pressures‚

I. INTRODUCTION Independent Study Questions 1.) What is the fundamental difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells? Procaryotic cells do not contain a membrane-bound nucleus or any membrane-bound organelles. Eurkaryotic cells contain both a membrane mound nucleus and membrane-bound organelles (making them far more complex). 2.) List and describe the two domains of prokaryotic organisms. a. Bacteria- Most are a specific shape (cylindrical‚ spiral‚ or spherical). Cell

Vol. 21 Summer 2005 Newborn Screening in the 21st Century From the Editors and Authors: Since our last Update on Newborn Screening in 1998‚ there has been significant expansion of newborn screening programs in various regions of the country‚ mostly to include metabolic disorders identifiable by tandem mass spectrometry. States in our region are just now starting to expand their programs. The Summer 2005 Genetic Drift provides an update on newborn dried blood spot screening (NBS). Specifically

It makes sense to think that quick‚ post-workout protein intake might boost recovery and promote higher performances on subsequent days of training. Indeed‚ some research has suggested that protein intake can help athletes adapt to their workouts more effectively. However‚ such studies have been flawed methodologically‚ and a new investigation reveals that combining protein with carbohydrate after workouts is not a superior strategy‚ compared with taking carbs alone. You’ve heard them: The "experts"

Chapter 6 Explain what free energy is and how it can be used to predict the energetic outcome of chemical reactions.Free energy is defined as the energy available to do work in any system. The free energy is denoted by the symbol G. G = H – TS* H: the energy contained in a molecule’s chemical bonds‚ called enthalpy.* TS: the energy term related to the degree of disorder in the system. T is the absolute temperature (K)‚ and S is the entropy.We can use the change in free energy to predict whether

Clinical Chemistry When people consider their careers in the health care field‚ most of them would think about being a physician‚ a nurse or a surgeon. Individuals with interest in the health care field are not aware of clinical laboratory science. I am one of those individuals who don’t know much about clinical laboratory science before. After taking the class “Introduction to Clinical Laboratory Science”‚ I start to realize that clinical laboratory scientists are just like other health care members

The reason behind this is that cold blooded animals do not have sweat glands that helps mammals like human beings to sweat in order to maintain a body temperature. Hence‚ when the environment gets cooler‚ their heart beat slows down and their metabolism slows down too. When the environment is hotter‚ it automatically increases. As a result of this‚ cold blooded animals cannot take extremes in temperature and often die in such circumstances. 2. Nothing will happen. This is due to the endothermic
