An Investigation Into The Effect Of PH On The Activity Of Potato Tissue Catalase Aim The aim of my investigation is to see how pH affects the activity of potato tissue catalase‚ during the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to produce water and oxygen. Catalase + 2H2O2 Catalase + 2H2O +O2 Catalase + Hydrogen Peroxide Catalase + Water + Oxygen Independent Variable The independent variable in this investigation is pH. Each individual enzyme has it’s own pH characteristic

and started adding one scoop of our enzyme catalyst‚ in this case‚ the yeast. We then proceeded to measure and add 1 mL of distilled water to test tubes A-D. To get a more accurate measure of 1 mL of distilled water‚ we used the dropper labeled “W” to drop distilled water into the 5 mL graduated cylinder until we saw that the bottom of the water line reached closely to 1 mL. Next‚ we took the four tubes with the scoop of yeast and added to each the corresponding 1 mL of water from tubes A-D. As

Aim: To investigate the effect of hydrogen peroxide concentration on enzyme catalase Indroduction: Enzymes are proteins. They function as biological catalysts. They lower the energy barrier of a reaction so that the reaction can take place at body temperature. Also‚ they can speed up Metabolic reactions without being changed or used up. During a reaction‚ an enzyme molecule combines temporarily with the substrate. When the reaction is complete‚ the enzyme molecules returns to its original dorm

In the novel Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson‚ there are three main sections‚ Solid‚ Liquid‚ and Gas. The main character‚ Kate‚ is very interested in science and the three titles are a metaphor for her state of mind throughout the book. The first section‚ Solid‚ shows how Kate is a stable and strong person. The next section‚ Liquid‚ is a time where Kate’s life is very inconsistent and she is unsure about herself. The last section‚ Gas‚ shows how Kate has accepted her fate and tries to help everyone

Biology Lab Report Investigating Alcoholic Fermentation and the Affects of Yeast on Dough Aim: The aim was simply to investigate whether or not yeast had any affect on causing dough to rise when baked and to experiment with alcoholic fermentation eg. to see if it gave off carbon dioxide. Introduction: Following a few weeks of fermentation theory‚ groups of three to four were assigned and told to conduct a series of experiments involving the affects of fermentation. My group consisted of

Effects of Sucrose Concentration On Cell Respiration In Yeast Abstract This lab investigates the effects of Sucrose concentration on cell respiration in yeast. Yeast produces ethyl alcohol and CO2 as a byproduct of anaerobic cellular respiration‚ so we measured the rate of cellular respiration by the amount of CO2 produced per minute. The results show a trend wherein increased concentrations of sucrose increase the rate of cellular respiration. Introduction All living cells require energy

It may be frustrating when a tired person gets into bed and remembers he had forgotten to switch the bed light off. The project ‘automatic night lamp with morning alarm’ helps avoid this problem by switching on an LED itself when it detects darkness in the room. The LED serves as a bed lamp or a reading lamp

Temperature effects on the growth of microorganisms Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effects that temperature has on three different organisms. Temperature is one of the most important environmental factors affecting growth and survival of microorganisms². The three organisms used where Escherichia coli‚ Pseudomonas fluorescens‚ and Bacillus stearothermophilis. Most bacteria grow within a particular temperature range. The minimum growth temperature is

Continental Temperature Ranges Introduction: There are large variations in average monthly temperatures among cities located at the same latitude. This suggests that factors besides the angle and duration of isolation affect the rate heating and cooling of any given location. Objective: You will graph the average monthly temperatures of costal and inland continental regions and interpret the range in temperatures. Vocabulary: Temperature range- Average daily temperature Average monthly
