Activity 1: Simple diffusion Introduction: Simple diffusion is the net movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration so its overall net movement is along the concentration gradient‚ simple diffusion does not require energy therefore it is ’passive’‚ substances are diffused across the membrane between the phospholipids. Materials and methods: * 20 mwco dialysis membrane * 50 mwco dialysis membrane * 100 mwco dialysis membrane * 200 mwco

temperature on the enzyme activity was that the reaction’s rate would increase as the temperature increased‚ until they go over the optimum temperature where the enzymes denature and the reaction’s rate quickly drops to zero. At 5 degree C the rate is 0.00059mole PNP/min. This then increases to 0.01031mmoles PNP/min at a temperature of 50 degree C. The rate then drops drastically to -0.00215moles PNP/min. This point is where the enzymes have been denatured and have no activity‚ shown as the last point

ASSAYING PLANT SUBSTANCES FOR ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY PURPOSE To test plant extracts to see if they possess antibacterial activity. PROCEDURE First create a list of plant extracts being tested and choose 2 extracts per group. The plants being tested are Oregano‚ Tea tree‚ Eucalyptus and Colloidal Silver. Obtain two nutrient agar plates and using a permanent marker draw four quadrants on the bottom of each agar plate. Using a sterile pipet transfer 250 ml of E. coli broth to the middle of

Explain what is meant by this phrase. This means that once the threshold is met‚ an action potential occurs. If the stimulus is too small an action potential does not occur. An action potential is usually initiated in an axon at or near what? The axon hillock‚ the initial segment‚ and the trigger zone. The adequate stimuli

Locomotor activity The Locomotor activity (Pákáski and Kálmán‚ 2008) refers to the movement of spontaneous locomotor and exploratory activity in rodents. LMA is a simple performed measurement of behavior to detect the effects of drugs‚ genetic manipulation‚ etc.‚ on motor function by measuring horizontal‚ vertical and stereotyped behavior in rodents. Several measures of locomotor activity in rats‚ including the distance covered‚ movement time and speed of progression. This test is sensitive to

The Determination of the Effect of pH on Amylase Activity Grace Chung Abstract: Amylase is an important enzyme in the human body as it allows for the consumption of starch by breaking the polysaccharide down into maltose units. All enzymes‚ including amylase‚ function best at a certain optimal pH. Therefore‚ in this experiment‚ the effect of different pHs on the reaction rate of amylase is studied. It was hypothesized that the amylase-starch reaction would proceed fastest at a pH closest to
