Conclusion In a prior lab‚ it was given that the enzyme Aspergillus oryzae (fungus) works best at warm temperatures and an acidic pH‚ porcine (pig) works best at body temperature (37 ºC) and

which light color would cause the spinach sample to photosynthesize the most within the given time. In order to understand photosynthesis‚ we need to know that chloroplasts absorb light energy from the sun‚ the plant then takes that energy along with water and carbon dioxide and changes it to sugar and oxygen. This happens in order for the plants to grow. But‚ light energy comes in a spectrum of colors called visible light. When visible light is absorbed it is also reflected‚ such as the green and yellow

called calorimetry. In this lab activity‚ calorimetry will be used to determine the specific heat of an unknown metal. This will be done by using a styrofoam cup calorimeter containing water. A calorimeter is insulated so as to minimize any loss of energy to the surroundings. Therefore‚ when a heated piece of metal is placed into the calorimeter‚ all of the energy should be accounted for. In other words‚ the energy released from the metal should be gained by the water‚ with no loss to the surroundings

eroxide into water and oxygen gas. The students have formed a hypothesis toward this experiment. If the speed of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is related to the temperature then in high temperature it will speeds the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. Materials ● Catalase ● Hydrogen peroxide 3% and 1% ● Forceps ● Filter paper discs ● Water ● Ice ● Water baths ● Vials ● Marking Pencils ● Stopwatch Procedure 1. Set up an ice bath (0°C)‚ a room temp water bath‚ a 37°C bath and a boiling water bath

PHYSICS INTERNAL ASSESSMENT How to measure the density of water using graphical method? Name: Chia Yee Xin Candidate Number: Session: October 2014 School: Sri KDU International School Research Question: To measure the density of water using graphical method. Introduction: Water is the most abundant compound on the Earth and it covers about 70% of the Earth’s surface. Water is a transparent fluid which forms the world’s streams‚ lakes‚ oceans and rain‚ and is the major constituent of

A company has specified that the acceptable size of a knob that is to be produced is (0.140 ± 0.003) inches. In this lab‚ the dimensions of the knobs produced in one day are tested for discrepancy in order to pass control testing. This lab also reports the probability that knobs with the acceptable dimension will be produced. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using Microsoft Excel‚ a histogram was created displaying the three documented dimensions of 15 batches of knobs. This histogram was obtained in order

chloroplasts‚ along with water‚ carbon dioxide‚ and light are the essential elements required for photosynthesis to take place. The “photo” part of photosynthesis is in reference to the fact that the process requires light. The simplest form of the photosynthesis equation is: H2O + CO2 ----light----> (CH2O)N + O2 As shown in the equation‚ photosynthesis produces carbohydrates‚ but more importantly‚ it produces oxygen. In 1937‚ Robert Hill discovered that chloroplasts in water could release oxygen

Meiosis and Genetic Diversity in Sordaria 979554296 Biology 110 Lab Introduction: In Israel there exists multiple spots in the mountains called Evolution Canyons‚ which are all located between a southern facing slope (SFS) and a northern facing slope (NFS). What’s particularly interesting about these locations is that despite the two slopes being on opposite sides of a small canyon‚ they exhibit extremely contrasting conditions. The SFS receives multiple times the UV radiation from the sun
