Auschwitz Concentration Camp Imagine that you were a 14 year old Jewish girl riding with your family and hundreds of other Jews and Gypsies packed into one tiny railroad car. You stop at an unfamiliar place were a man is screaming at you to get out. You have to watch your step getting out of the railcar because there are already dead people on the floor who passed on the trip here. Once you are out you are separated from your family‚ woman on one side men on the other. Kids are franticly

The great tragedy of what we know as World War two brought great danger to lots of people‚ but to not forget of what people themselves feared most‚ concentration camps. To be more specific in this case‚ the Auschwitz camps. In its time‚ it was the most effective camp of the Nazi regime. In this place‚ it consisted of three camps‚ each with their very own deadly purposes. The reasons this camp over all was the most effective was‚ history of its building‚ the day of a prisoner in the camps as well

Research Question: How will an increase of FeSO4 concentration affect the activity of the enzyme catalase? Hypothesis: By increasing the concentration of FeSO4‚ there will be a decrease in the activity of the enzyme catalase because the Iron (ii) in the metallic ion will act as an inhibitor during the catalysis of the hydrogen peroxide into O2 and H2O. Introduction: We rely on oxygen to provide us with energy (ATP) and go through all the phases of aerobic respiration. However‚ oxygen can be

The concentration of wealth is why Western Europe never fully enveloped Marxism. In the East‚ Africa‚ and South America‚ they had wealth concentrated in the hands of a very few high classes‚ whereas in Western Europe and North America it was somewhat more spread out. In the "poor" areas‚ Marxism was seen as a way to take wealth from the elites and spread it among all the people‚ and Marxism was in most cases with the overthrow and execution of the elites. In the areas where

To begin with‚ a concentration camp is a place where a large amount of people such as Jews are imprisoned in a small area with no freedom‚ and this was established by the Nazis in Germany. In 1933‚ my house was raided by the Nazis and my family was sent to a concentration camp. At the concentration camp is where I met my best friend Anahi. Anahi and I were always awakened by the Kapo very rudely. The “bettenbau” is just a good opportunity for him to beat the prisoners. When we woke up‚ we had to

My lab group studied the effect of PH on reaction rate/ enzyme activity measured by foam height. PH is the measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution. The higher the hydrogen ion concentration‚ the lower the pH. Every enzyme has an optimal PH‚ meaning they have a very small window in which they are most active. Our enzyme (potato smoothie) had an optimal PH of 7.0-7.5. We know this because we measured the enzyme’s reaction rate by measuring foam height. The largest foam height we

EFFECT OF CHANGES IN TEMPERATURE AND SDS CONCENTRATION ON THE STRUCTURE OF BEETROOT CELL MEMBRANES. Introduction Cellular Membranes or cell membranes are biological membranes that separate the interior of a cell from the outside environment. Cell membranes are selectively permeable to ions and some molecules and control the movement of substances in and out of the cell. (Danyk‚ 2013/14) Cell membranes separate and organize chemicals and reactions within cells by allowing selective passage

Acetylcholinesterase and Butyrylcholinesterase substrate selectivity and various acting cholinesterase inhibitors Introduction Cholinesterases are a group of enzymes present in mammals which breakdown certain neurotransmitters by hydrolyzing the ester bonds within a molecule (Rang & Dale‚ 2007). There are two major types of enzymes‚ acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Though similar in structure‚ they differ in distribution‚ function and substrate specificity. AChE is found in red

Investigating the Effect of Concentration on the Rate of Enzyme Catalysed Reaction To investigate the effect of concentration on the rate of enzyme catalysed reaction I must know all the factors that affect it in order to investigate in this. Here are all the factors: Temperature- Enzyme like it warm but not too hot. Enzymes are biological catalysts‚ which speed up chemical reactions. They work most efficiently at the optimum point (37°C). If they are below 37°C they will work

Auschwitz was a concentration camp established in 1940 by the Nazis. The Nazis sent the Jews and other "undesirable" people here to be used as slaves or to be killed. It was located in Oswiecim‚ Poland. There was no privacy when the captives had to go to the washroom. Buckets and toilets were lined up in rows‚ and the toilets were often broken and flooded with urine and feces. Although the prisoners were exhausted due to hard work‚ sleeping was difficult because the bunks were made out of wood. The
