Design Experiment: Enzyme Inhibitors. Research question: What is the effect of adding lead nitrate solution on the activity of amylase enzyme? Aim: To test the effect of adding nitrate solution on the activity of amylase. Background Information: Inhibitors are molecules which repress or prevent another molecule from engaging in a reaction. They are substances that attach themselves onto an enzyme and reduce or prevent the enzyme’s ability to catalyse reactions. Competitive Inhibitors are inhibitors

Biology College of Science De La Salle University – Dasmariñas Dasmariñas‚ Cavite Philippines ABSTRACT This experiment was performed to learn the technique of acid-base titration and to compare the efficiency of commercially available antacids by looking at their weight of HCl and weight of antacid values. The analysis of antacid tablets was highlighted in this experiment. The efficiency of antacid tablets was determined and compared when the number of grams of HCl can be neutralized by

Daphnia Experiment Report 1. Introduction Caffeine is found in many plant species‚ where it acts as a natural pesticide. It is found most commonly in cocoa‚ tea and coffee‚ but is also artificially added to some soft drinks such as cola to act as a flavour enhancer. When consumed by humans‚ caffeine works as a stimulant causing amounts of released neurotransmitters to be increased. High use of caffeine has been related with raised blood pressure‚ restlessness‚ insomnia and anxiety which‚ in

Delayed gratification is just waiting for something better. If a kid doesn’t pass the marshmallow experiment parents start to wonder what they should do. Mischel states he would remind the parents that there are a large number of cognitive skills that can be used and practiced if kids have a serious self-control problem.

Osmosis Lab Report The essential focus of the experiment was to acquire data for the mass change resulting from osmosis in order to determine the carbohydrate solution of the carrot cells. The carrots were a vegetable used within the experiment with a carbohydrate solution around .5 M. The hypothesis is if there are carrots in different carbohydrate solutions then there will be a percent change in mass. The carrots have large vacuoles that hold water‚ this allows the mass to increase when the hypertonic
