First aired in January 1977‚ Roots‚ a dramatic factional TV miniseries captured the minds and hearts of the nearly 80 million people who watched (Bird 94). The series was based on the book Roots by Alex Haley; both depict his family tree going back eight generations (on his mother’s side) when his family was still in Africa. The story begins with Kunta Kinte begin a young man in the Juffree village‚ Gambia‚ West Africa who was taken from his village to become cargo on the Lord Ligonier; a ship that

Science IA Rough Draft The Effect of Temperature on The Activity of The Enzyme Catalase Introductions: Enzmyes are proteins that catalyze chemical reactions. All living things have catalase present in them. Catalase is a common HYPERLINK "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enzyme" enzyme found in nearly all living organisms that are exposed to oxygen‚ where it HYPERLINK "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalyst" catalyzes the decomposition of HYPERLINK "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_peroxide"

Computer Simulation of Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability: Passive Processes and Active Processes Introduction In this lab we will establish a difference between the two types of cell transport mechanisms and their permeability. The first type of cell transport is passive processes which are driven by concentration or pressure differences in the interior and exterior of the cell. The second type is active processes which use energy known as ATP to power the transport. There are two

Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to test the effects of osmosis on eggs in hypertonic solutions and hypotonic solutions. Hypothesis: If the corn syrup is a hypertonic solution‚ then the egg’s size will shrink. If the water is a hypotonic solution‚ then the egg will swell. Materials: Styrofoam cups (2 per group) Styrofoam cups to weigh down egg (2) Balance Paper towels Vinegar (enough to cover egg) Distilled water Corn syrup Fresh eggs (2 per group) Procedure: Day

Bacterial Energetics and Membranes Abstract The Mg2+/Ca2+ ATP synthase present in all bacterial membranes‚ particularly E. coli‚ couples ATP synthesis to the proton (H+) gradient produced by the ETC‚ a process known as oxidative phosphorylation. The gradient acts to power the ATPase‚ so that it may phosphorylate ADP to produce ATP. The reverse reaction of this process‚ or hydrolysis of ATP into ADP and Pi‚ may be used to observe ATPase activity when the resulting Pi is quantitatively measured

Abstract This experiment was designed to answer the question does temperature affect the amount of osmosis? The hypothesis predicted was that the higher the temperature the more osmosis would occur‚ but too high the osmosis would halt due to enzyme and substrate overheating and losing shape. After research and class time it was concluded that osmosis is a passive transport and would not require energy or enzymes due to it going from high to low concentrations with the gradient

Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to measure the effects of changes in temperatures and pH on enzyme activity in skeletal muscle‚ particularly the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). LDH is a glycolytic enzyme which converts pyruvate to lactate in the following equation: LDH Pyruvate+ NADH ------------ Lactate + NAD The reaction above can move in both directions‚

Investigation Into Temperature Sensors Introduction In this project I will be investigating how it is possible to use a temperature sensor to keep a greenhouse from changing temperature too much. This is intended to help plants live and grow in their optimum temperature. This will create a perfect temperature for the enzymes in the plants to work in‚ and therefore resulting in a maximum growth/production rate. This could be useful for gardeners who wish to grow plants as quickly as possible
