Lab 4: Fungi Non-filamentous forms — Single-celled Yeasts Do an Internet search for a microscopic image of baker’s yeast‚ Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Ascomycota). Answer the following questions: 1. Do the yeast cells have a definite shape or is there considerable variation? Yeast cells seem to vary in shape‚ some look to be more oval and round‚ although. some slides did show pear and cylinder shapes. 2. Can you detect any subcellular structure? I cannot detect a clearly visible

The cell cycle‚ or cell-division cycle‚ is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication that produces two daughter cells. In cells without a nucleus‚ the cell cycle occurs via a process termed binary fission. In cells with a nucleus‚ the cell cycle can be divided in three periods: interphase—during which the cell grows‚ accumulating nutrients needed for mitosis preparing it for cell division and duplicating its DNA—and the mitotic phase‚ during which the

Solutions with Different Concentrations of Glucose Brandon Bosley BIO 121 11/19/2013 Introduction: In our lab this week we tried to see how different amounts of substrates affect our organism‚ yeast‚ in its fermentation process. Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is an organism that is cultured for the cells themselves‚ as well as the end products that they produce during fermentation. Yeasts are commonly known for the ethanol fermentation due to their ability to produce ethanol for industrial purposes

Live cells can be examined under microscope by using this technique. Saccharomyces cerevisiae which is known to be immobile (and 5-10 micrometer in diameter that make it easy to observe) yeast was observed under microscope to observe its

the hop flowers Wheat or millet can also be used to make beer It is an extremely old drink and has been made since before Roman times There are different types of beer. The different types are made by using different strains of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and by changing the fermentation process. Malting: Barley is soaked in water and spread out to germinate When shoots appear the barley is dried to stop further growth During the germination enzymes change starch in the grains to sugar

This scientific report will be based on cellular respiration‚ or fermentation. In specific‚ how the type of sugar affects the rate of fermentation. The aim of this experiment was to find which type of sugar was best suited to produce ethanol. In the experiment‚ four different sugars were used‚ they included sucrose‚ glucose‚ lactose and fructose. This research is still relevant today‚ as alcohol is still consumed and is required on a large scale. This makes it crucial to companies to find the best

study’s lead investigator. Beyond of the fact that this macromolecular machine unwinds DNA‚ it records images of “individual molecules persevered at extremely low temperatures” (Scripps Research). The researchers tested out samples from yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and then used mathematics and intensive digital processing to translate the images of single RSC molecules. RSC is a large and flexible machine of thirteen different proteins that unwinds the DNA. Given the fact that we have trillions of

Laboratory Exercise #5 Identification of Fungi Fungi‚ like bacteria‚ may be useful in industry but also problematic. Many produce important products including foods‚ chemicals‚ enzymes and pharmaceuticals such as antibiotics and hormones. Molds‚ however‚ in particular‚ are also common contaminants in industry. It is important to be able to recognize and identify them‚ therefore‚ in the laboratory. In today’s laboratory session you will examine some common molds and attempt to identify them.
