Lab Report: Toothpickase and Enzymes September 19‚ 2012 Olivia DePhillips Lab Partner: Joy Morgan Meyers Signature: Introduction Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process‚ called substrates‚ are converted into different molecules‚ called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates sufficient for life. Like all catalysts‚ enzymes work

go through the whole process of osmosis. Also‚ a lot of the experiment was rushed as we were under pressure to finish as quickly as possible. Unfortunately the time constraint was caused by and outside influence unrelated to the lab itself‚ and so next time we could do a lab under normal conditions where there are no outside disturbances. There were weight differences in the potatoes which could have caused thicker potatoes to absorb more than others. It was a little impossible to obtain the same

Diffusion in Cells Isabel Zak Question: How does the size of a cell affect the distribution of chemicals throughout the cell? Hypothesis: The larger the cell is‚ the more difficult it will be for the chemicals to reach the centre of the cell‚ and diffuse throughout it. This is because there will be a higher surface-area to volume ratio in the larger cells‚ making the centre of the cells further away from the surface. Therefore‚ when dipped in sodium hydroxide‚ the larger cells will not be

A Plant cell is complex and difficult to understand. A Plant cell is comparable to a party at a mansion. Each organelle which makes up the cell of a Plant is comparable to an aspect of a party. The membrane in a Plant cell separates the cell from the environment and regulates the molecule passage in and out of the cell. The bouncer is considered the membrane of the party. The bouncers have a list and‚ only allow certain people into the party‚ separating who is inside the party from who is

protect the cell from its surroundings‚ the membrane also regulates the movement of substances that go in and out of the cell. This is composed of phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins. Cell Wall: The cell wall is composed of cellulose‚ this sugar is used as structure and protection. This organelle is only found in plants. The cell wall has three layers the middle lamella‚ primary cell wall‚ and secondary cell wall. The middle lamella contains a polysaccharide that binds cells to one another

Fast Plants Lab Background Gregor Mendel is an Australian monk‚ who worked in a garden at a monastery. He experimented with pea plants‚ and soon became known as the father of genetics. The reason he studied pea plants was because they grow quickly‚ the traits can be easily observed‚ and the plant is easy to pollinate. Mendel’s method was to control the pollination of the pea plants and create offspring’s of the two plants that were pollinated together. Using self-pollination and cross pollination

CHM1032L pre/post lab instructions Preparation is a key to success in this lab. For this reason‚ you are required to thoroughly read through the experiment information presented in the lab manual‚ and complete a pre-lab for each experiment you do. The prelab must be completed prior to the day of the experiment. Each Friday I will ask to see your completed prelab before I allow you to enter the lab. If you have not finished the pre-lab‚ I will not allow you to enter the lab and you will receive

Lab report is one way we used during of after an experiment in a laboratory to subtly record and discuss the experiment. During a lab‚ we sometimes can observe only the physical part of the experiment‚ or may be some visible chemical changes. These changes indicate that the experiment we do is successful or not. However‚ in order to understand and achieve more from just simply doing the experiment‚ we write lab report to more profoundly understand the internal meanings of the experiment we do‚ and

The Virtual Lab – ELISA Test Lab: Immunology 09/04/2013 Instructors: Dr. Charlie Wilson Written by: Dipen Patel I. Objective: The purpose of the lab was to learn the procedure of performing an ELISA test to determine whether a particular antibody is present in a patient’s blood sample. ELISA is an abbreviation for “Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay." II. Introduction: The interaction of antigen and antibody outside the body can be used to determine if patient
