Biology A - Assignment 1: Cell Membranes and Temperature Background Theory Beetroot contains betalain pigments within it’s vacuole‚ which gives it it’s purple-red colour‚ it’s this pigment which leaks out as the beetroot is heated and the cells membrane begins to break down. The practicals aim is to show the effect of temperature on the cell membrane by observing the colour change of the water the beetroot was placed in. The cell membrane is important as it controls the substances enters and

each had the objective of understanding how various factors may have an influence on blood flow rate. These factors include the effect of blood vessel radius‚ the effect of blood viscosity‚ as well as the effect of blood vessel length‚ and the effect of blood pressure. This better understanding of cardiovascular dynamics was achieved with PhysioEx 9.1. Hypothesis: Hypothesis- Activity 1: Studying the Effect of Blood Vessel Radius on Blood Flow

Oncology Drug "Sorafenib 200 mg" is a drug approved for the treatment of primary kidney cancer (advanced renal cell carcinoma)‚ advanced primary liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma)‚ and radioactive iodine resistant advanced thyroid carcinoma. Sorafenib is used to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC; a type of cancer that begins in the kidneys). It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply.This helps stop the spread of cancer cells. We are supplying

Unit 01- Child and Young Person Development (1.1) 1. Explain the difference between sequence of development and rate of development and why the difference is important. (1.1) It is important to know the difference between the sequence and the rate of development as it gives us direction when it comes to monitoring child/young person’s needs during stages of their school years. We can then plan effectively to make sure the child receives the help and support they need in areas they could find difficult

found that‚ in acidic pH environment‚ the reaction rate of starch being broken down by alpha amylase is less than that of the reaction rate at a neutral and slightly basic pH environment. This finding partially supports our hypothesis. The spectrophotometer readings in our experiment measured the absorbance of 3-amino-5-nitrosalicylic acid‚ a colored molecule formed after dinitrosalicylic acid (DNSA) has reacted with the products of the enzymatic reaction or the simple sugars. Therefore‚ the absorbance

Reaction on Reaction Paper The first thing that came to my mind when I have heard about Reaction paper is “What exactly is it?” and before I get an understanding of that‚ I resisted that change. But later‚ when I have studied about it and understood its purpose‚ I have started thinking “Why people avoid change at the first look without an analysis?” The general human tendency is to live in a comfortable zone in which he has lived for quite some time. He draws a circle‚ thinks that circle is his

Next I will pour the Zinc into the test tube containing CuSO4. 3.Finally I will measure the final temperature using a thermometer and record the temperature rise in °c. (I will carry out all my experiments under lab safety precautions.) Variables *I will vary the mass of Zinc‚ & use the following Zinc weights:

Science investigation Aim: To try to see if the temperature affects the rate in which Amylase breaks down starch into maltose. In this reaction starch is the substrate and maltose is the product. Amylase is an enzyme‚ Enzymes‚ also called catalysts‚ are in living things and there are thousand of them. Enzymes break down food by the active site on the Enzyme forming a chemical bond with a substrate and then water attacks the substrate until it is hydrolysed (split in 2). Equipment: Boiling

a‚ b) All children develop at their own rate and the term ’Sequence’ and ’Rate’ is used. The meaning for Sequence development is the order in which the child grows and the meaning for Rate is the speed that the child develops. The Development areas include Physical‚ social‚ communication and language‚ cognitive (intellectual)‚ emotional and behavioral and moral. Lots of the skills and the areas of development overlap one another so that the development is interconnected and linked which is called

Infra-Red Spectroscopy of HCl and DCl gas Abstract Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy has been very useful in helping scientists examining molecules of HCl and DCl. Because deuterium has a greater mass than hydrogen‚ the IR band shown for HCl is at a higher wavelength than DCl. The absorption of light in DCl was at lower frequency 1700-2200 cm-1 because D is bigger and heavier. That’s why the vibrations on the IR were shorter for DCl compared to HCl. The stretching of HCl on the IR region was
