Virtual Lab: Enzyme Controlled Reactions Worksheet 1. Which of the following does NOT apply to an enzyme: b. Inorganic 2. When an enzyme catalyzes a reaction: a. Substrate(s) bind in the active site 3. Which of the following would interfere most with the ability of an enzyme to catalyze a reaction? a. Reduced concentration of substrate available 4. Feedback mechanisms regulate the rate of enzyme activity‚ effectively “turning off” an enzyme in a reversible way until more product is needed

like: "Salivary Amylase is a an enzyme that digests starch into di- and monosaccharides. Since it’s a salivary amylase‚ the enzyme works best at an alkaline pH of 7‚ in other words‚ the optimum pH is 7. At this pH‚ the rate of amylase activity will be at it’s highest. A pH that is much lower (very acidic) or much higher (very alkaline) will denature the enzyme permanently (specifically the active site)‚ and the enzyme can’t function anymore. The activity of the enzyme will decrease as we increase or

Lab 5 DECOMPOSITION (Nov 2‚ 2011) Introduction: Decomposition is the breakdown of organic material into its smaller molecules and elements. (This term is generally considered as a biotic process but one may find it also used to describe an abiotic process‚ e.g.‚ due to weathering.) The decomposing organisms may use the release of elements for nutrients and by breaking apart the carbon-carbon bonds in organic matter this can release energy for them. These smaller molecules and nutrient elements

Lab #2: Energy in Cell Virtual Lab - Week 3 NAME: ________________________________________ 1. What is the importance of the light and dark reactions in photosynthesis? Photosynthesis works by absorbing light. Our sun gives off energy and the chlorophyll from the plant absorb this energy. The energy is then used to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen and then they combine hydrogen and carbon dioxide to make sugars. 2. What happens to food energy during photosynthesis? During

indicated by a very pale pink color. To calculate the molarity of NaOH‚ the following equation was used MNaOH x VNaOH = MKHP x VKHP therefore the molarity was .125 M. INTRODUCTION This lab experiment covers the preparation of standard solution and the acid/base titration. The first part of the lab is to prepare a standard solution of Potassium hydrogen per. A standard solution is a solution of known concentration‚ in which it is prepared using exacting techniques to make sure that the molarity

You are encouraged to refer to this document each time you write a lab report. The writing of laboratory reports is an essential part of any practical module in Psychology. This is because psychologists (and more generally most scientists) write accounts of their studies using a standard format‚ which makes explicit

Lab 5 The Diffraction Grating Chinua McDonald Objective: To measure the wavelength of light with a diffraction grating. Theory: The two types of diffraction gratings are the transmission and reflection gratings. They are made by ruling on a piece of glass or metal a number of evenly spaced lines with a fine diamond point. Diffraction phenomena can be analyzed in terms of Huygens’ principle‚ according to which every point on the wave front of a wave should be considered as a source
