Purpose: To find which of solutions will produce the most alcoholic fermentation by measuring the depth of the carbon dioxide bubbles and the diameter of the balloon. Apparatus and Material: Funnel 4 test tubes Cups Sugar Water Yeast Knife Ruler Balloon Marker Tape Method: 1) Put tape on each test tube and label them‚ 0%‚ 1%‚ 5% or 10%. 2) Fill up water in each cup. 3) Add 10 ml of water in each test tube 4) For the test tube labeled 1%‚ add 0.1 ml of sugar. 5) Add 0.5 ml of sugar

The hypothesis for this lab was that Core B will be the least flexible due to a loss in water. Unfortunately‚ my results led my hypothesis to be incorrect. The results that were received was that Core C was the most flexible‚ Core B was somewhat flexible‚ and Core A was not flexible and stiff. Core A was the most non-adjustable due to it being hypertonic which means that the total concentration of all the dissolved solute particles is greater than the other solution. Core B was isotonic meaning

Introduction Enzymes are catalytic proteins. The purpose of a catalyst is to speed up metabolic reactions by lowering the free energy of activation or activation energy. Activation energy is known as the amount of energy needed to push the reactants over an energy barrier‚ so that the downhill part of the reaction can begin (Campbell 151). In an enzyme catalyzed reaction‚ the enzyme binds to its substrate‚ which is the reactant an enzyme acts on. In the reactions‚ the enzymes are very specific

CHAPTER 14 1. Norm of reaction: the phenotypic range that a genotype is associated with due to environmental influences. 2. Multifactorial: characters that have many factors‚ both genetic and environmental‚ collectively influence phenotype. 3. Pleiotropy: when a gene controls multiple phenotypic effects 4. Epistasis: When a gene at one locus alters the phenotypic expression of a gene at a second locus 5. Carrier: a person who is heterozygous for a recessive disease and therefore

Pros and Cons of using electronic medical records! Pros- Just like any other record keeping‚ moving patients’ records from paper and physical filing systems to computers and their super storage capabilities creates great efficiencies for patients and their providers‚ as well as health payment systems. Example: The tragic events like 9/11‚ Hurricane Katrina‚ and the California fires have showcased the benefits of electronic record keeping. Those injured or made sick by any of those
