organism. With the shape of the active site changed the enzyme is unable to perform the "lock and key" action the enzyme is meant to do in order to catalyse a reaction. The specified enzyme is shaped to "lock" on to the substrate. Where the enzyme contacts the substrate is called the active site. When the enzyme becomes denatured the shape of the active site has changed and the enzyme is no longer as efficient. The enzyme can become so deformed that the protein molecule begins to unravel

Glomerular Filtration The following questions refer to Activity 1: Investigating the Effect of Flow Tube Radius on Glomerular Filtration. 1. Describe the effect of increasing the afferent radius on glomerular filtration rate and glomerular pressure. As the afferent radius increases the glomerular filtration rate and glomerular pressure both increase the pressure in slow steps the filtration rate greatly increases. 2. Describe the effect of decreasing the efferent radius on glomerular filtration

HINTS ON WRITING YOUR REPORT Title: Enzyme activity Objective: To investigate the effect of temperature on amylase activity Design principle Background: Amylase activity products? (show the equation) Which factors will affect enzyme activity? How to study the rate of reaction? (e.g. rate of disappearance of substrates or rate of formation of products) Independent variable: temperature of reaction mixture or at which the enzymatic reaction occurs. It can be varied by setting water bath at

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"

I believe that extra-curricular activities have an effect on teenage drug and alcohol use. I feel that the more extra-curricular activities people are involved in‚ whether those activities are clubs‚ sports‚ dance‚ hanging out with friends‚ community service‚ etc. that those people are less likely to use drugs and alcohol. However‚ the people who are not really involved in extra-curricular activities are more likely to use drugs and alcohol. The more activities and less free times a person has in

Psychology Assignment TASK 1 Physical Activity is beneficial to society in many different ways‚ there are many organisations working to promote sport to everyone‚ no matter what their age‚ gender‚ background or ability. One of these organisations is called ’StreetGames ’‚ they particularly target children from underprivileged background and encourage them to get involved in sport and physical activities. This helps to keep crime levels down by keeping teenagers off the street and giving them

Today‚ is my second day in concentration camp #59‚ which goes by the name Sobibor; an extermination camp. (Which is just one type of many different purposed camps‚ including prisons‚ labor‚ and transit camps.) I arrived here yesterday at roughly a quarter to noon‚ with my sickly mother Aliza and two older brothers Adam (17) and David (21). My father was brutally murdered yesterday by one of the many Nazi soldiers who invaded our home. “Eliana‚ sis‚ wake up. Protocol will begin in five minutes

What is the difference between oxidative and substrate level phosphorylation? Oxidative phosphorylation is a metabolic pathway that uses energy released by the oxidation of nutrients to produce ATP. Oxidative phosphorylation uses the electrochemical gradient‚ set up by the oxidation of nutrients‚ of protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane to generate ATP from ADP. During oxidative phosphorylation‚ electrons are transferred from electron donors to electron acceptors such as oxygen‚ in

AIM The aim of this investigation is to explore the effect of different concentrations of bile salts on the time taken for the lipase enzyme to break down fat. BILE Bile is a brownish bitter alkaline fluid produced by the liver and made by the hepatocytes from water‚ bile salts‚ bile pigments cholesterol and phospholipids and stored in the gall bladder. Bile is directly connected with digestion. It is released sporadically into the small intestine (duodenum) which is part of the gut in order
