CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Concentration has been defined as the ability to direct one’s thinking in whatever direction one would intend. Concentration plays vital roles in doing well in studies. A student has to work really hard and concentrate firmly to get concepts well in mind. All students have the ability to concentrate some of the time. But at other times students’ thoughts are scattered‚ and their minds race from one thing to another. They don’t have the ability to

I believe that the reason the cell appeared smaller after being exposed to starch solution was because water molecules move out of the cell because the concentration of water inside the cell was greater than outside the cell. I believe this for a few different reasons. We were given 3 different explanations to explain why the cells appear smaller after being exposed to sugar water. These include: That the sugar molecules are not able to enter the cell‚ but the sugar molecules push on the cell membrane

Plan a procedure that will allow you to compare quantitavely the glucose concentration in fresh samples of orange‚ lemon and grapefruit juice. Aim: The aim of this investigation is to produce a set of data which will enable comparison of the glucose concentrations of orange‚ lemon and grapefruit juice. Research: Benedict’s Reagent is a mixture of sodium compounds and copper sulphate. The copper ions are reduced by fructose (a reducing sugar) to form copper oxide‚ thus turning it from blue

Enzymes lower the activation energy of chemical reactions but they themselves are not consumed or altered when doing so. These catalysts work best at optimum temperatures and pH’s. The temperature and pH at which the reaction occurs the quickest is the ideal condition for the enzymatic reaction. Alpha amylase converts starch into glucose and when starch is combined with I2KI indicator a dark purple solution forms. As the enzyme breaks down the starch the absorbency will decrease. The absorbency

Allies would invade Germany in time before the Nazis find them. During all this‚ concentration camps were being made. A concentration camp is a place where large numbers of people‚ especially political prisoners or persecuted members of a minority‚ are imprisoned in a small area with inadequate facilities‚ sometimes to provide forced labor or to await mass execution. Many of these concentration camps later became death camps for Jews. One of the most infamous concentration camps was Auschwitz because

Enzymes are organic catalysts‚ usually proteins that speed up metabolic reactions. They lower the amount of energy needed for reactions to progress in cells. In enzymatic activity‚ the molecules at the beginning are called substrates. Lactose metabolism is when lactose is destroyed‚ maintained or produced. For instance‚ being lactose intolerance that’s where lactose is destroyed. Metal cofactors in enzyme activity are required to function properly. The Effect of Temperature on Enzymatic Activity:

Lab : Iodine-starch Clock Reaction Pre-lab: Before the lab was conducted‚ the concentration of the Iodate ions to be in the mixture made by dissolving specific volumes of solution A with a constant concentration and water was calculated using the dissolution formula: C1V1 = C2V2 Sample Calculation 1: Concentration of the Iodate ions: For mixture 1: C2 = C1V1/ V2 = (0.020mol/L) x (0.003L)/(0.01L) = 0.006mol/L The same calculations were used in the calculating of the

I. Preparation A. Choosing 1. You should choose the fruits that you like. a. For example‚ if you desire to gain more different fruits enzymes or make the glass bottle more colorful‚ you can choose four or even more kind of fruits. There is no limitation. But‚ you must include one fruit‚ lemon. It helps to kill the bacteria of the drink. B. Composing 1. The ratio of components should be 3‚ 1. It means 3 parts of fruits‚ 1 part of sugar. You can follow this ratio to determine the amount of fruit

HB105: Introductory Physiology The Action of Enzymes Introduction An enzyme is located in all living cells‚ and is a complex protein molecules. These protein based molecule act as a catalyst. This is a compound that aids chemical reactions without its own structure and state being changed during the process. Catalysts speed up chemical reactions‚ changing substrates into specific produce. Without these enzymes life would not exist. Enzymes are fundamental to all living things as they speed up
