THE SEARCH FOR BETTER HEALTH 1.What is a healthy organism? Discuss the difficulties in defining the terms ‘health’ and ‘disease’ * Health – state of physical‚ mental and social wellbeing. It is not just absence of disease * disease – any condition which effects the functioning of any part of a living organism * difficulties in defining health and disease; * health 1) the definition of health varies with age eg stiffness in the joints is probably more common in a 90yo

THE EFFECT OF CATALASE ON HYDROGEN PEROXIDE The aim of the experiments is to see if increasing the surface area of the enzyme Catalase‚ affects the relative activity of the substrate Hydrogen peroxide. Then to observe and measure the effect the Catalase has on the chemical breakdown of the hydrogen peroxide. My theory is if you keep increasing the surface area of Catalase‚ the more active sites are available to join with the substrate causing an increase in the breakdown of the hydrogen peroxide

A Genetically Modified Organism is an organism whose inherited matter has been altered using heritable engineering techniques. It is basically a special set of technologies that alter the genetic makeups in organisms that vary‚ such as plants‚ animals‚ or bacteria. Combining genes from different species is known as recombinant DNA technology‚ and the outcome organism is known as genetically modified. Now the question lies‚ is genetically modified organisms needed to suppress hunger? In my opinion

THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON CATALASE RESEARCH QUESTION: What is the effect of various temperatures‚ 0°C‚ room temperature‚ 37°C‚ 50°C‚ 60°C‚ on the number of oxygen gas bubbles liberated‚ in a decomposition reaction between the enzyme Catalase‚ obtained from crushed mung beans‚ and 2% of the substrate Hydrogen Peroxide? INTRODUCTION: Enzymes are biological catalysts that increase the rate of chemical reactions without they themselves being involved in the reaction itself. Enzymes are proteins

Hydrothermal Vents and its Organisms! A hydrothermal vent is a fissure in a planet’s surface from which geothermally heated water issues. Hydrothermal vents are commonly found near volcanically active places‚ areas where tectonic plates are moving apart‚ ocean basins‚ an hotspots Hydrothermal vents exist because the earth is both geologically active and has large amounts of water on its surface and within its crust. Common land types include hot springs‚ fumaroles and geysers. Under the sea

to identify two unknown organisms. PROCEDURE I was given unknown #76. I performed the streak plating method with my unknown organisms. To perform this exercise I needed a TSA plate and labeled the bottom of it with my name‚ group number and organism. I also divided the bottom into three sections. After that‚ I sterilized my inoculating loop using the bunsen burner flame. After letting the loop cool‚ I reached into my unknown test tube with my loop and grabbed the organisms. After that I streaked

different concentrations of catalase on the production of oxygen and water through the breakdown of Hydrogen Peroxide. In this experiment paper disc where coated in varying concentrations of catalase‚ 0‚ 25‚ 50 75 and 100%. The time taken for the disc to float between two markers on the side of a glass was then recorded. This experiment demonstrates that the higher the concentration of enzyme used the greater the production of oxygen on the paper disc. The oxygen then produced on the disc gives it greater

visual was captured‚ a catalase test followed. Next‚ for further data‚ MSA results were recorded‚ along with antibiotic observations of demo plates. Lastly‚ with the information gathered‚ it was identified that the unknown sample was Streptococcus salivarius. Introduction: In this lab‚ the exploration of an unknown gram positive bacteria was conducted. What is known about gram positive microorganisms is that their cell walls are composed of a thick peptidoglycan layer‚ which retains the purple

Sometime in the near future I plan on being a parent myself. With today’s food selection though I will be watching and picking carefully through the many types of foods I decide to feed my children because of the existence of genetically modified organisms (GMO) in our everyday foods. Coming up in the world this is not a very broad topic because of its lack of research revealed to the public. GMOs is a very large income source for food companies and even our very own government. I have been researching
