The aim of the experiment is to investigate the effects of carbohydrate receptors in the mouth on exercise performance during a simulated time trial. Energy is required in the body for metabolic processes‚ physiological functions‚ muscular activity‚ heat production‚ growth and synthesis of new tissues. Carbohydrates have been researched and studied for centuries and are commonly viewed as a substrate for fuel metabolism‚ associated with many other energy-demanding processes. There has been extensive

low fat or reduced fat. The Atkins diet plan‚ which is a low-carbohydrate diet‚ is a very popular diet. Many people have lost a lot of weight with this diet. It was stated in a Diabetes Forecast article‚ Researchers at Stanford University made a splash in the diet and nutrition world last March when they reported that in a 1-year study of 331 women‚ participants lost more weight on the controversial low-carbohydrate Atkins diet than popular rivals such as the Zone‚ Ornish‚ or

Essay on ”The Red Line” by Charles Higson Society contains a vast majority of different types of people‚ and all of them look‚ act‚ and think differently. How we as individuals do these things‚ are greatly influenced by the people around us‚ as our differences makes us judge others. In creating our own identity‚ our reliance on others is consequently grand‚ which can be either a fine or a dreadful matter. For some‚ the prejudice in the perceptions of others can cause the truth to be exceedingly

distillation and gas chromatography based on their difference in boiling points. The boiling point of hexane is 69 degrees Celsius and the boiling point of toluene is 110 degrees Celsius. Three fractions were collected for both simple and fractional distillation. The first fraction was hexane since it had the lower boiling point. The second fraction was a mixture of toluene and hexane. The third fraction was toluene since it had the high boiling point of 110 degrees Celsius. Gas chromatography was also preformed

It is tri atomic oxygen (03) and is a gas found in the troposphere as well as in the stratosphere. Tropospheric ozone is undesirable since it is a pollutant these‚ causing photochemical smog and greenhouse effect. In the stratosphere‚ it acts as a protectant since‚ (i) It absorbs the dangerous UV-radiations (ii) It helps to trap the weather pattern within the troposphere‚ by generating a temperative inversion in the stratosphere. Tropospheric ozone is increasing due to human activities‚ while

We have four important macromolecules; carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins‚ and nucleic acids. From these four‚ the macromolecule I chose for this assignment was carbohydrate. Carbohydrates branch off into three main categories; monosaccharides‚ disaccharides‚ and polysaccharides. I decided to focus on disaccharides‚ specifically sucrose. Sucrose is more commonly known as table sugar. It has a chemical formula of C12H22O11. It is physically described as a white‚ odorless (although when heated‚ it may

The ozone layer diminishes more each year. As the area of polar ozone depletion (commonly called the ozone hole) gets larger‚ additional ultraviolet rays are allowed to pass through. These rays cause cancer‚ cataracts‚ and lowered immunity to diseases.1 What causes the depletion of the ozone layer? In 1970‚ Crutzen first showed that nitrogen oxides produced by decaying nitrous oxide from soil-borne microbes react catalytically with ozone hastening its depletion. His findings started

Gas Chromatography Analysis of Product Mixtures Gas Chromatography Guidelines‚ Handout. Introduction Gas chromatography is a technique used to analyze chemical compounds that can be vaporized and separated in a gas phase column. Once separated‚ the analyzed substance is passed through a detector and data is obtained. The samples that we are going to analyze are: the EtOAc from Simple distillation‚ the Fraction 1‚ Fraction 2‚ and Fraction 3 from the Fractional Distillation. Experimental Procedure
