This laboratory allowed for an establishment of different rates in which yeast is tested with anaerobic conditions and the amount of time it would take to get to the result of fermentation with different sugars. This fermentation rate was calculated with water displacement using pipettes to discover the span of time before the release of air bubbles known as Carbon Dioxide. Sucrose had the highest fermentation rate in comparison to all of the other sugars that were tested. The results confirm the

Module 2 Exam Review This review is neither a replica of the exam nor does it contain every concept in the module. It is always best practice to review all lessons and assessments. Resubmitting is a great way to review/learn and improve your grade. There are approximately 32 questions (about 3 are essays) on the regular exam; approximately 42 questions (about 5 are essays) on the honors exam. The number in parenthesis is the lesson. None of the honors lessons are in this review. The answer

Pre-Laboratory Assignment 1. What are the hazards associated with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution? Sodium hydroxide solutions‚ especially in high concentrations‚ are toxic and corrosive. 2. (a) What buret reading should you record when the liquid level is as shown in Figure 2? In Figure 2‚ the lower meniscus lies below the 3 mL line and 4 minor gradations that signify 0.1 values. Estimating the uncertain digit to be 0.04 mL‚ the reading we record for this particular buret is 3.44 mL.

An experiment to demonstrate the effect of temperature on fermentation by yeast The purpose of this laboratory is to observe how temperature affects the metabolism of Grape juice by visibly noting the volume changes of identical food mixes containing yeast at different temperatures. Background Information If yeast is added to a liquid containing sugar and other nutrients‚ kept at an appropriate temperature (and deprived of oxygen)‚ it will turn the sugars into ethanol (alcohol) and carbon

An ECG (electrocardiogram) is a tool used to evaluate the heart’s electrical activity which measures the current produced in the extracellular fluid. Action potentials that occur in the myocardial cells can be detected by electrodes or leads placed at key points on the skin’s surface (reference text book pg. 371) **add figure of a typical EKG trace** The ECG records 5 different waves that correspond with myocardial activity. The first wave is the P wave which occurs in response to atrial depolarization

Certain cells‚ like yeast cells produce ethyl alcohol through fermentation. Respiration in the presence of oxygen makes possible the complete oxidation of nutrient compounds into carbon dioxide and water. Using three glass pipets to hold the yeast mixture‚ we then sealed one end‚ and flipped the pipets upside down so to record the level of carbon dioxide that developed. In fact‚ ninety

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

Laboratory Exercise #2 Pre Lab This lab will teach me how to use a spectrophotometer. The use of the spectrophotometer is to measure the concentration of solute. The solute being measured must be colored and is determined based on the adsorption of light photons on a wavelength. The spectrophotometer uses a beam of light that strikes the diffraction grating that basically forms of prism of light. Then only a specific wavelength of light shines through the spectrophotometer and interacts with

Student: Keila Dukuze Date: Feb/10/2013 Lab# 3 Section: 110 Pre-Lab Report Determining the Density of Various Liquids and Solids The purpose of this experiment is to determine the weight (density) of certain liquids and solids in chemistry. These liquids include; Water‚ Hexane‚ Carbon Tetrachloride‚ and solids include; Copper‚ Zinc‚ Lead and‚ Aluminum. It’s important to know the weight of these products so you can properly conduct experiments and make clear observations. Different

Pre-lab questions: 1. Algae belong to what Kingdom? They belong to the Kingdom Protista. 2. What are the three types of multicellular algae? The three types if multicellular algae are chlorophyta which are green algae‚ phaeophyta which are brown algae‚ and rhodophyta which are red algae. 3. Are algae autotrophs or heterotrophs? Algae are autotrophs. 4. What organelle allows plants (and plantlike protists) to photosynthesize? The chloroplasts allow plants and plantlike protists to photosynthesize
