The main purpose of carbohydrate loading is to reestablish both the glycogen of the muscles and liver in order to keep hunger away during some types of competitive sports. These types of competitive sports include: marathons‚ long distance swimming‚ and cycling. Carbohydrate loading is done anywhere from a week out from a competition or event to only twenty four hours before. There are three main benefits to carb loading for athletes of sports like marathons‚ long distance swimming‚ cycling‚ and

TITLE: The Amount of Protein in Chicken Tissues over Cooked Various Periods of Time. ABSTRACT: In this lab‚ we are using a BioRad protein assay dye to determine the concentration of protein in our chicken. The dye binds to the amino acid residues‚ which allow us to find the concentration of protein (BioRad Protein Assay for Tissues). Our hypothesis was the longer chicken is cooked the less protein is available. To test our hypothesis‚ we made samples using our chicken and distilled water to determine

BASICS OF INTEREST RATE SWAPS A swap is an agreement between two institutions to exchange future cash flows. Suppose there is a bank receiving fixed 8% return on 2 year money lent. This bank can swap its revenue stream against another firm’s variable rate 2 year money. In practice swaps tend to be more complicated and can involve more simultaneous variations of interest rates and currency as well.

with discretion; opt for carbohydrates with a low glycemic index (GI). GI is the property of a carbohydrate to be converted into blood sugar. A low GI indicates that a carbohydrate takes longer to be converted to sugar‚ thus implying that it is contains insoluble fiber that is tougher to break down (that’s good news‚ intestines need some exercise too). While consuming carbohydrates‚ watch out for the glycemic load (GL) too. Glycemic load accounts for how much carbohydrate is in the food‚ and how much

Discovered in 1838‚ proteins are recognized as a large number of superior organic compounds that make up living organisms and are essential for their functioning. In other words proteins are the building blocks of life. They do many tasks for the human body and other organisms‚ that could not be done individually. These macromolecules could function as structural proteins and form structures such as keratin in hair‚ teeth‚ bones‚ muscles‚ collagen in connective tissues‚ horns in animals

Analysis: Lab 1 Identifying Carbohydrates There were many ranges of color changes in the Benedicts test and Iodine stain. For the Benedicts test‚ this oxidation/reduction response changes the arrangement of the reducing sugar creating a colored precipitate. The change in color is correlated to the first concentration of the reducing sugar. For the iodine test‚ the three dimensional structure of various polysaccharides permits them to react with the iodine stain to produce a certain color. As far
