John’s ship finally arrived in New York and he was exhausted. He and his family traveled to America because of the potato famine that was happening back home in Ireland. The first task he needed to do was find a place to live at with his family; he realized that the decent houses and apartments were out of his budget. He only had money for the crowded and unhygienic apartments‚ if they could be called that. After John picked a “room” out‚ he went to search for jobs. While he was out looking for work

study‚ the researchers used a lampunaya leaf that also contains anthocyanins With the knowledge of this‚ we decided to come up with a study about lampunaya leaf extract as an acid-base indicator. There are three reasons why we conducted this study: first‚ we want to discover new things. We would like o know if the lampunaya leaf extract would be an effective acid-base indicator and as far as we have known there are only a few researches about this topic. Second‚ we would like to add further knowledge

Effect of Temperature ( C ͦ) on Enzyme Catalase Activity in potato Aim: To investigate the Effect of temperature (10‚ 37‚ 60) Celsius (C ͦ) on enzyme catalase activity in potato using 2% of hydrogen peroxide (H202) as the substrate measuring the height (cm) of oxygen gas (bubbles) and calculating the volume of oxygen bubbles produced (cm3) Introduction: Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up metabolic reactions without being affected. They lower the activation energy needed to start

of concentration? Wouldn’t a higher concentration allow for a higher temperature as there is less time for heat to escape during the reaction? These are all questions that could be further developed to understand this how hydrogen peroxide and this potato catalase functions. How does this apply to the real world? The whole idea of this experiment was concentration‚ and how concentration impacts a reaction. One example relating to hydrogen peroxide is 3% hydrogen peroxide sold over drug stores‚

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Pest insects are based on the potential damage on human purpose. They cause damage to the agricultural crops‚ consume and or damage harvested food‚ cause illness or unproductively to agricultural animals‚ and vector human disease. For centuries man had made innovative ways in combining pest insects‚ which leads to the invention of insecticides. Though insecticides contributed big in the elimination of pest insects‚ it also contributed ecological alteration due to its toxic

Controlled Assessment: Osmosis of a Potato [pic] Osmosis: Osmosis is the movement of substances through a partially/semi permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration to balance of the concentration of the two sides. Biological membranes do allow water to pass through‚ but water will have no net movement unless osmosis takes place. Preliminary Method I have chosen to investigate the factor of the weight of potato strips after set amounts of time.

Participation and Voting Behaviour 1. Explain the term class dealignment used in the extract. (5 marks) Class dealignment can be described as the relationship between social class and voting behaviour weakening‚ meaning that the electorate are beginning to vote for political parties which are not generally associated with their social class. The extract quotes “In the 1960s‚ Peter Pulzer concluded that‚ ’class is the basis of British party politics.’” The 1970s showed how the electorate strongly

Using Sucrose Solutions to Determine Osmolarity of Potato Tubers Based on Weight By Thomas Pelikan Biology 200A Section 004 Kimberly Schmidt October 2‚ 2012 Abstract: In this experiment we were trying to determine the osmolarity of potato tubers by weighing them before and after incubating them in solutions of sucrose with varying molarities. To find the osmolarity we took a potato and used a cork borer to obtain seven samples of potato tubers. We then prepared seven beakers with concentrations

Investigating Osmosis In Potato Cells Apparatus: The apparatus used in this experiment were: 1) 5 beakers‚ 2) 3 large potatoes (same type)‚ 3) 15 pieces of potato without skin (roughly the same size)‚ 4) 10 pins‚ 5) 50ml of distilled water‚ 6) 50ml salt solution 0.50‚ 7) 50ml salt solution 1.00‚ 8) 50ml salt solution 1.50‚ 9) 50ml salt solution 2.00 10) Scales‚ 11) Knife‚ 12) chopping board‚ 13) cork borer‚ Prediction & Theory: When the potato pieces are put in to the water there

occur by moving water through the semi-permeable membranes. If the concentration of sucrose in the solution is less than the concentration of sucrose found in the potato‚ then the potato would decrease in mass. The opposite would occur as well‚ if the concentration of sucrose in the solution is more than that of the potato‚ then the potato would expand and gain in mass. In conducting this as an
