This lab was split up into two different experiments‚ using different variables in each. During the first section of the lab‚ we investigated the what the effect of light is on both photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Our hypothesis about this effect was that the cuvette representing ‘no light’‚ being covered in foil‚ would result in a yellow CO2 indicator fluid‚ meaning that there was a decrease in pH and a high level of CO2 was present. Additionally‚ we hypothesized that the cuvette that was

The majority of the experimentation in this project relied on the idea that there is a relationship between concentration and absorbance of a solution. This is easy to understand if you can visualize the particles in the solution; and this is especially true if the particles in solution portray a distinct color. The more particles there are in the solution‚ the more they will obstruct the path of the light. This occurs the most at the analytical wavelength‚ where the most light is absorbed by

Analysis: The graph of oxygen uptake vs time taken to run 1.5 miles has a negative linear association. As oxygen uptake increases‚ the time taken to run 1.5 miles decreases. This is can be seen through the gradient which has a value of 0.1705. This means that as the oxygen uptake increases by 1 ml/kg the amount of time taken to run 1.5 miles tends to decrease by approximately 1.7 minutes. The graph has a moderate relationship because the data is scattered in a wide band along the line of best fit

purpose of this experiment was to investigate the effect of brown sugar on the amount of CO2. To do this‚ white sugar was replaced with brown sugar and the amount of CO2 produced was calculated with a vernier gas pressure sensor. The control group was yeast and white sugar and the experimental group was yeast and brown sugar. The hypothesis that if brown sugar and yeast are mixed‚ then it will produce more CO2 than a mixture of white granulated sugar and yeast was accepted. The white sugar and yeast

HYPOTHESIS Using train conductors as representatives for all of human kind we can postulate with some accuracy the percent of the population of Earth that are complete and total assholes. If you have ever lived in a small town with train tracks running through it you will know that the conductor of the train is required to sound the whistle at every crossing. This is a 4-part whistle; 2 long‚ 1 short‚ 1 long. My hypothesis is that we can calculate what percentage of the population of planet Earth

Practical 5: determination of activation energy of an enzymed catalyzed reaction Introduction: enzymes are complex chemicals that control reactions in living cells. They are biochemical catalysts‚ speeding up reactions that would occur too slowly to be of any usefulness to an organism. Although in organisms‚ it is not necessary for the reactions to be at maximum rate at all times. Enzymes interact with other molecules to produce a stable system in which the products are made when they are

Photosynthesis is a crucial energy conversion process that occurs in the chloroplasts of eukaryotic cells. The rate of photosynthetic activity holds importance in environmental‚ horticultural and agricultural situations. (Boardman‚ N.K. 1977). Pigments in the chloroplasts thylakoid membrane absorb the electromagnetic radiation from a light source and release an electron into the electron transport chain. DCPIP’s chemical ability to favourably accept electrons‚ and undergo a colour change from
