    Title: “The Effect of Substrate Concentration‚ Enzyme Concentration‚ pH and Temperature on Enzyme Activity” Abstract: In the following experiments we will measure precise amounts of potato extract as well as Phenylthiourea‚ combined with or without deionized water and in some instances change the temperature and observe and record the reaction. We will also investigate the different levels of prepared pH on varying samples of the potato extract and the Phenylthiourea and record the results.

    Effects of Temperature‚ pH‚ Enzyme Concentration‚ and Substrate Concentration on Enzymatic Activity INTRODUCTION Enzymes‚ proteins that act as catalysts‚ are the most important type of protein[1]. Catalysts speed up chemical reactions and can go without being used up or changed [3] Without enzymes‚ the biochemical reactions that take place will react too slowly to keep up with the metabolic needs and the life functions of organisms. Catecholase is a reaction between oxygen and catechol

    generation of secondary messengers that go on to regulate other physiological processes‚ as well as being responsible for the activation of some ion channels and enzymes and assisting in trafficking of proteins to the cell membrane (5‚ 8). Why is PIP2 then so important in hippocampal cells? PIP2 is a substrate for hydrolysis by the enzyme phospholipase C (PLC)‚ whereby the products of this interaction are the secondary messengers‚ diacyl Glycerol (DAG) and inositol trisphosphate (IP3) (6‚ 8) that are

    same functions of a standard wired telephone but is smaller and more mobile. A cell phone requires a subscription to a service provider and requires either a prepaid or monthly billing setup. Generally‚ they have more functions than traditional land lines and need to be charged after a period of time. Also called mobile phone or mobile device.—BusinessDictionary.com A mobile phone (also known as a cellular phone‚ cell phone and a hand phone) is a device that can make and receive telephone calls

    DIFFUSION AND OSMOSIS: WHAT’S TO EXPECT? Diffusion and osmosis are very important in biological process. Diffusion is the movement of molecules or ions from a region of their high concentration to a region of their low concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane. To gain a better understanding of diffusion and osmosis‚ we examine multiple experiments to show diffusion and osmosis in animal cell‚ plant cell and synthetic cell. In our first experiment

    demonstrate the process of osmosis using potatoes‚ and to determine the concentration of the cytoplasm of the potato. To demonstrate this‚ we had 6 test tubes and poured in different sucrose solutions of the following concentrations: 0.0M‚ 0.1M‚ 0.2M‚ 0.5M‚ and 1.0M. Once added in with all the sucrose solutions‚ we added in the 6 cylindrical potatoes of equal diameter and length. Before and after putting it in the potatoes‚ we had to weigh the initial and the final mass of each potato. After you have left

    Potato Osmosis and Diffusion Lab Report Emily Cocq Research Question: Will there be a difference in the experimented potato cores after being subjected to high concentrations of sugar? Introduction: Water can move through protein channels in cell membrane/cell walls. The water will move due to the water potential of the cells. If there is a greater concentration of solutes (chemicals) inside the cell than outside the cell and the chemicals can not move‚ then water will respond by moving
