Lab Report: Toothpickase and Enzymes September 19‚ 2012 Olivia DePhillips Lab Partner: Joy Morgan Meyers Signature: Introduction Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process‚ called substrates‚ are converted into different molecules‚ called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates sufficient for life. Like all catalysts‚ enzymes work

Lab‚ Week # 1 BALANCE LAB Introduction The purpose of this lab is to learn how to utilize two different balances to find the mass of different chemicals in the ChemLab program. A balance is an instrument used to determine the mass of a chemical. To accomplish this we use direct weighing and weighing by difference on both the centigram and electronic balances. Equipment 1 Centigram Balances 1 Electronic Balance 1 100ml Beakers 5 Copper Slugs 2 Unknown Weights (Label # 1‚ # 2)

department Data security – Lab # 1 Lab Description Set-UID is an important security mechanism in Unix operating systems. When a Set-UID program is run‚ it assumes the owner’s privileges. For example‚ if the program’s owner is root‚ then when anyone runs this program‚ the program gains the root’s privileges during its execution. Set-UID allows us to do many interesting things‚ but unfortunately‚ it is also the culprit of many bad things. Therefore‚ the objective of this lab is two-fold: • Appreciate

dish cultures. All kinds of mutants are easily induced and readily obtainable with particular ascospore color mutants. These visual mutants aid in tetrad analysis‚ especially in analysis of intragenic recombination. ( Campbell 72) A common lab use is to observe meiosis and mitosis in the fruiting bodies‚ called perithecia. An interesting feature of S. fimicola is that its fruiting body is phototrophic. Thus‚ as it grows the stalk will bend toward a light source and when the sac bursts‚ the

INTRODUCTION: This lab was done to know how diffusion takes place. In the first place‚ particular penetrability is characterize as the particular "determination" with reference to what particles to enter the cell or kept outside of the cell; it is basically specific of what is going in and what is going out‚ primarily supplements going in and squanders going out (Marieb). Moreover‚ specific penetrability happens in two ways: dynamic process that requires ATP for the transportation of cell while

Ashley Robins 9/13/11 Honors Chemistry Period 4 Density Lab Purpose: 1. To determine the density of a solid using different laboratory techniques for measuring volume. 2. To use the intensive property of density to identify an unknown substance. Procedure: 1. Obtain a bag marked with a number containing a cube and a cylinder from the teacher. Record the number on the bag in the data table. Density of a cube: Using a balance‚ record the mass of the cube to the nearest tenth of a gram

Flame lab test Chemistry Introduction The lab test performed was to determine characteristic colors that were produced by specific metallic ions that are shown in a flame. This happens when an electron gains energy; the electron moves from an energy level that’s farthest away and to an empty orbital close to the nucleus with higher levels‚ so one of the electrons gives off energy. A flame test is a visual test where the energy is in the form of a color change and the change can

Friction Page 1 Lab: Friction William Morris Leo Hayes High School Friction Page 2 Purpose: To investigate the coefficient of friction for a given surface and the effects that factors such as weight‚ surface area and changes to the surface have on the coefficient of friction. Hypothesis: The smaller the amount of normal force (weight)‚ the less friction created and the least surface area and the greaser the surface the less friction is created. With

Problem What effect does the different concentration of hydrochloric acid have to the rate of diffusion of agar that is dissolved with sodium carbonate and phenolphthalein? Introduction Diffusion is a process where the molecules intermingle as a result of their kinetic energy of random motion and is the net movement of like molecules down their concentration gradient‚ which is the energy inherent in their constant molecular motion makes them collide and careen outward from the region of higher
