to the heart’s vessels. 7 What is the name of the inner layer of the pericardium? The inner layer of the pericardium is a serous membrane called the parietal layer of the pericardium. 8 What is the name of the serous membrane on the surface of the heart? The surface of the heart called the visceral layer‚ or epicardium. 9 What forms the pericardial cavity? The two portions of the serous membrane‚ the visceral and parietal layers form the pericardial cavity. 10 What is the function of the serous membrane

Biology- Change in pH Aim: To investigate the affect that change in pH levels has on a particular enzyme‚ in this case amylase. Hypothesis: In this investigation I expect as the pH reaches the optimum level‚ the rate of reaction will be fastest‚ compared to other pH levels. It is also suspected that after the enzyme has reached optimum level the enzyme activity will decrease. Through further study of the optimum level of amylase I found that the enzyme usually has an optima pH of 8. It is known

Biology coursework: Substrate specificity in yeast AIM: To find out which substrate (glucose‚ starch‚ maltose‚ sucrose or lactose)‚ does yeast‚ the organism containing the enzyme‚ breaks down the quickest. Introduction: Usually‚ every enzyme has a specific substrate that is what we call the “lock and key” theory. We can try the reaction of an enzyme with different substrates and this enzyme will just work well with one of those substrates. One type of reaction catalyzed by enzymes is anaerobic respiration

one product causing an anabolic reaction. There are five factors that effect enzyme activity. They are: ·Temperature ·pH ·Inhibitors ·Substrate Concentration ·Enzyme Concentration The factor I am changing is surface area of potato containing Catalase. By increasing the surface area of the potato‚ you make more Catalase molecules be exposed to hydrogen peroxide. This will result in the rate of reaction increasing because it increases the chance of more successful collisions between the enzyme

taken in seconds for all five discs to rise and float on the surface of the water? Hypothesis: “As the distance of light away from papaya leaf discs increases‚ the average time taken for the discs to resurface and float o the surface of the water increases.” Data Collection & Processing Raw Data Table: Time taken (minutes) for the five discs to resurface and float on the surface of the water. Processed Data Table: Average time taken

assist students wishing to excel on the SAT and in college courses. According to the College Board’s website‚ AP Biology courses are designed to be the equivalent of a college introductory course‚ usually taken during a biology major’s first year of college. Students who choose to take AP Biology may be allowed to skip over introductory biology courses and enroll in courses in which biology is a prerequisite. Because universities grant college credit for this course‚ they require that the textbooks
