CHANDIGARH
The City Beautiful

Chandigarh is a city and union territory in India that serves as the capital of two states, Punjab and Haryana . It is also referred to as The City Beautiful due to its beautiful surroundings, central grid of gardens, each dedicated to different species of flora. The city of Chandigarh was the first planned city in India and is known internationally for its architecture and urban design. The city has projects designed by architects such as Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, Jane Drew, and Maxwell Fry.

1) SIGHT SEEING
Rose garden Location - Sector 16, Chandigarh Named after India's former President, Zakir Hussain, this beautiful garden was set up in 1967 with the support of Chandigarh's first Chief Commissioner, late Dr M S Randhawa. Chandigarh rose garden contains more than 17,000 plants and has nearly 1,600 varieties of roses. It is a spacious garden covering an area of 27 acres and not just consists of gorgeous roses, but also trees of medicinal value. Some of the medicinal plants that can be spotted here are Bel, Bahera, Harar, Camphor and Yellow Gulmohar. Rose garden serves as the venue for hosting the annual festival of gardens, a major cultural event of the city.

Rock Garden Location - Sector 1, Chandigarh Rock garden is an epitome of creativity and innovation. It is a unique garden that consists of various art objects. But the best part about the rock garden is that each of its artwork has been made by using industrial & urban waste. It is located in Sector 1 between the Capitol Complex and Sukhna Lake. The credit for laying its foundation goes to Nek Chand, who was the then Road Inspector in the Engineering Department of Chandigarh Capital Project. Rock garden has been established in the form of an openair exhibition hall. The garden houses sculptures made by using a variety of different discarded waste materials like frames, mudguards, forks, handle bars, metal wires, play marbles,

    This lab was focused on determining the optimal temperature of the enzyme amylase responsible for catabolizing starch polymers and to see how different temperatures affected the rate as well as how effectively the enzyme worked. To proceed with the experiment the group set up four different test tubes for each, bacteria and fungal amylase, and labeled them accordingly with different temperatures as well as different solutions . Then the spot plates were placed on the time and temperature table created with napkins and iodine was added to the first row were the solutions would be added later according to the time and temperature of each row. Because iodine reacts and turns a dark black color when starch is present they could determine the optimal temperature of each type of amylase by looking at and comparing the color changes. The group could reach a conclusion because they observed that at low temperatures more starch was present as well as at high temperature which was were the most starch was present. Because of these observations they concluded that the optimal temperature for amylase should be at about fifty-five degree celsius.…

    1) The purpose of this lab was to determine the rate of enzyme activity under variety of different conditions, such as, different amount of drops of enzymes and different temperature of water. The class measured the pressure in the test tube during the reaction of the substance with, 1.5 ml of H2O2, 1.5ml of H2O and different amounts of enzyme drops, to determine how much oxygen gas is produced during the reaction since the pressure of the test tube will get higher as more oxygen gas is accumulated during the reaction.…

    Amylase in a mixture of starch produced different color variations when stimulated with its independent variable of temperature showing its effectiveness. The dependent variable was the visual change of color from variations of black to yellow. According to our experiment data all enzymes do not establish one optimal temperature in which they can catalyze. If this were false the results of having all enzymes work in all temperatures would be chaotic. This is the data found to why enzymes were not able to catalyze at the highest temperature which was ninety degrees. This resulted in high levels of starch being left.…

    Amylase Experiment

    • 607 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The main focus of this experiment was to find the relationship between temperature and the enzyme activity of amylase. This was achieved by attaining amylase enzyme, starch solution and potassium iodide (determines if enzymes hydrolyses the starch solution), water bath and a hot plate. The temperatures used for this experiment were room temperature, 37oC, 60oC, 80oC, and 90oC. The hypothesis developed was that as the temperature increased, so will enzyme activity. Therefore, the ability of the enzyme to break down the starch solution will occur at a faster rate because of the increased temperature. However, the enzyme will begin to denature if temperatures are over 50-60oC.…

    Fungal Amylase

    • 1320 Words
    • 6 Pages

    This experiment was designed to test the reaction of the enzyme amylase at various temperatures. There were two different kinds of amylase being tested, one was fungal amylase also known as aspergillus oryzae and human amylase. The changes in temperature effect the rate at which an enzyme and a substrate collide. When the temperature is too high the active site changes shape or denatures, once this occurs it stops substrates from attaching themselves to their corresponding enzyme. When the temperature is too low it decreases movement, therefore preventing contact between substrates and enzymes. The various temperatures used in this experiment were 0˚C , 40˚C ,60˚C and 95˚C. As the temperature increase, the rate of reaction also increased. If the temperature is raised too high the enzyme would denature therefore not being able to break down the starch. In conclusion, the temperature predicted at which the enzyme would denature is at 95˚C.…

    Enzymes are specific-type proteins that act as a catalyst by lowering the activation energy of a reaction. Each enzyme binds closely to the substrate; this greatly increases the reaction rate of the bounded substrate. Amylase enzyme, just like any other enzyme, has an optimum PH and temperature range in which it is most active, and in which the substrate binds most easily.…

    Enzymes are organic catalysts, usually proteins that speed up metabolic reactions. They lower the amount of energy needed for reactions to progress in cells. In enzymatic activity, the molecules at the beginning are called substrates. Lactose metabolism is when lactose is destroyed, maintained or produced. For instance, being lactose intolerance that’s where lactose is destroyed. Metal cofactors in enzyme activity are required to function properly.…

    In the amylase lab, it was being tested if amylase, an enzyme found in saliva, would be denatured by being put in an acid or high temperatures. This lab is about denaturing amylase. It is tested by exposing it to pH and temperature changes. It is then mixed with Benedict’s solution, is a solution that changes color from blue to reddish brown when maltose is present. Amylase breaks starch into maltose, so is the amylase isn’t denatured, it should change colors.…
