living tissue‚ observe the effects of changes in temperature and pH on the activity of an enzyme‚ perform analyses for the presence of an enzyme in tissues‚ and analyzing relationships between environmental conditions and enzyme activity. Background: Cells produce proteins which are called enzymes and their job is to help reduce the amount of energy needed to start a reaction. Enzymes are catalysts which are chemical substances that reduce the amount of activation energy needed for the reaction to begin

Biology Laboratory Report MEASURING RATE OF WATER UPTAKE BY A PLANT SHOOT USING A POTOMETER Introduction All plants need salts minerals‚ water‚ CO2 and O2. To fulfill their requirements different plants use different ways. Lower plants use diffusion‚ however higher plants use vascular tissue that is located in the middle of the root and in the vascular bundles in the stem. The transpiration is the important process in the plant. The main reason is that transportation

What is Photosynthesis? Its general reference is sunlight protons converted into resourceful energy‚ of which are autotrophs that work and feed themselves independently. To be more scientific using its equation 6CO2 + 6H2O – Sunlight Energy – C6H12O6 + 6H2O‚ carbon dioxide particles travel through a leaf’s cell surface‚ which is where the chloroplast organelle produces “chlorophyll molecules forming a light harvesting complex absorbing that energy‚ exciting electrons” ((n.d.).

1. Explain how photosynthesis and respiration are linked in order to provide you with energy from the food you eat. Include in your paper: •Complete descriptions of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration. •Describe how these two processes are linked between plants and animals based on the reactants and products (water‚ carbon dioxide‚ glucose and oxygen) of both pathways. •Include a description of how energy is transferred from sunlight to ATP‚ from ATP to sugars‚ and from sugars

Lab Report Microscopic Study: Investigating Osmosis in Red Blood Cells Lab Report Investigating Osmosis in Red Blood Cells Introduction: The flow of water across a permeable membrane is called osmosis‚ and during this process‚ water moves down its concentration gradient. A solution surrounding a cell is hypertonic if it contains more solute particles than the inside of the cell‚ and the water will move out of the cell into the surrounding hypertonic solution by osmosis. If the solution
