Effects of Inhibitory and Non-Inhibitory Competition‚ Enzyme-Substrate Concentration‚ Along with Varying Temperature and pH-Balanced Environments on the Enzyme-Catalyzed Reaction of pNPP Abstract: Introduction: Many of the chemical reactions‚ which take place in in living things are controlled by enzymes. In such cases‚ the enzyme is a protein in the cell which lowers the activation energy of a catalyzed reaction‚ which serves to increase the rate of the reaction. Alkaline phosphatase is made

Purpose: To find the percent of sugar by mass in chewing gum Hypothesis: The percentage of chewing gum that is sugar for bubble gum is 30%‚ 20% for juicy fruit and 25% for stride gum. Mass Of Juicy Fruit Mass Of Bubble Gum Mass of Juicy Fruit unchewed | 7.12g- 1.72 = 5.4 g | 5.80g- 1.72g = 4.08 | 4.52g- 1.72g = 2.80g | chewed | 3.00g- 1.72g= 1.28g | 2.24g-1.72g =0.52g | 2.86g-1.72g= 1.14g | Percent of Sugar | 3.00g x 100/ 5.4 = 55.5%

human heart rate. To test this‚ we did two full laps of the oval‚ and measured our resting heart rate‚ just before the test‚ just after test and also our recovery rate after the test. Below are the graphs that show the different heart rates of our group of three. We conducted this experiment in a group of three so we could compare results and‚ if the results were different‚ analyse and research why we each had different results. Aim- The purpose of this test was to record how our heart rate would change

on cardiovascular functions such as pulse rate‚ pulse lag‚ the PT interval‚ the TP interval‚ systolic‚ and diastolic blood pressure is noticeable after running down the steps of Long Hall and back up to the third floor. As Table 1 shows‚ the data support the initial hypothesis that the pulse rate will increase‚ the pulse lag will decrease‚ both the PT and TP intervals will decrease‚ and the systolic and diastolic blood pressure will increase. The pulse rate mean before exercise was about 78 beats per

The purpose of this lab was to determine how different conditions could affect one’s heart rate. In the life of a human‚ the heart beats approximately forty-five million times per year varying based off of factors like age‚ gender‚ physical activity level (1). Furthermore‚ throughout the course of a day‚ the heart can vary in its heart rate from a number of different environmental changes such as prolonged standing‚ altered breathing (inhale vs. exhale)‚ and jolts of excitement such as being startled

LCT and UCT causes the endotherm’s metabolic rate to increase. We can hypothesize that when the temperature falls below the LCT or above the UCT‚ the percent O2 consumption will increase‚ and thus‚ the metabolic rate. The hypothesis was supported by the result received in this lab. The thermal neutral zone (TNZ) of an endotherm is its temperature tolerance range. For the mouse‚ this is about room temperature. It is seen that in the TNZ‚ the metabolic rate decreases from about 1.75 to 1 (Fig 1). During

Enzymes are biological catalysts‚ large protein proteins that have a very specific three-dimensional shape which makes them highly specific and only work on one or a few similar chemical reactions. Enzymes themselves are not consumed in the reaction‚ but they help attract substrates into correct position to undergo chemical reaction. Enzymes greatly speed up the rate of biological reactions by lowering the energy of activation. To get a sense of the speed and efficiency of enzymes‚ substrates can

Starch/Amylase Experiment Report Objective: The purpose of the starch/amylase experiment was to simulate and observe the process of enzyme digestion. Materials: * 1 small beaker * 2 large beakers * 2 cut pieces of soaked dialysis tubing * 2 dialysis tubing clamps or pieces of twine * 2 clean plastic pipettes * 1 bottle of Lugol’s solution * 2 glucose test strips Procedure: Begin the experiment by placing 4 full pipettes worth of cooked starch in a beaker. Then‚ use

Activity One: 1. The two major variables that affect the rate of diffusion: a. The composition of the lipid bilayer (eg. more cholesterol‚ less permeability to polar substances) b. The structure of the molecule undergoing diffusion (eg. steric conformation‚ size‚ polarity‚ amount and strength of hydrogen bonding) 2. Urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO because the pores of the membrane were too small for the urea to pass through. The molecular weight of urea is 60.06 g/mol‚ over

The Effect of Position on Heart Rate This lab explores the effect of head position on an individual’s heart rate by having a subject move it’s head while simultaneously monitoring the subjects heart rate. There were three successive periods during which the heart rate was monitored that occurred in this order: a resting stage (subject sitting upright)‚ a stage with the head positioned between the knees‚ and a recovery stage (subject returns to upright position). The graph depicts a wide range
