1-1 EXPERIMENT 1 ISOLATION OF CAFFEINE FROM TEA In this experiment you will isolate caffeine from tea leaves and prepare the salicylate derivative. Introduction This experiment illustrates the isolation of a naturally occurring product from plant material -- caffeine from tea leaves. The experiment will provide experience in handling relatively small amounts of material and at the same time you will be exposed to several techniques and procedures which are fundamental for survival in an organic

The effects of different wavelengths of light on the rate of photosynthesis Introduction This experiment was performed to investigate the effects of different wavelengths of light on the rate of photosynthesis. If a multiple colored film petri dishes are place under a 50 watt lamp‚ then the rate of photosynthesis will be greater for those with red‚ blue and clear film‚ than those with green and black film. We believed the petri dishes with the red‚ blue and clear film would produce the best

Premium Heart rate
Introductory Activity Heart Rate (pulse) Have the students find their heart pulse on the carotid artery of the neck. Use the index and middle finger to measure the pulse. Count the number of beats for 6 seconds and add a zero to the end of that number. This number represents the heart beats per minute. The heart pulse is located on either side of the wind pipe‚ next to the voice box. Allow the students to practice measuring their pulse to determine their resting heart rate. Explain that they need

specific conditions to function‚ thriving at temperatures between 29°C-40°C‚ with an optimal temperature of 37 °C. Above 37°C‚ rennin molecules increase in energy causing the rate of reaction to increase‚ becoming denatured at approximately 60°C. Below 37°C‚ the reduced energy level results in fewer collisions and the rate of reaction and activity of rennin decreases. (7) The optimum pH for rennin is pH 3.4 (8) as it mimics the gastric juices and acidic conditions of the stomach‚ however again rennin

your baby’s heart beat. Between twenty-two and twenty-eight days after conception a baby’s heart is able to be heard ( Congenital Heart Defects: Signs‚ Symptoms‚ and Treatment ). There are serious diseases that can develop early in pregnancy. One of these very life-threatening diseases is known as congenital heart disease. There are several diseases all linked to one muscle in the body. Congenital heart diseases can be major or minor factors to a person’s life. The disease can affect a baby as soon

1. The heart rate determines the intensity of the fitness activity. a. 12*6=72 b. 220-21=199 c. 129-150 range. 2. Aerobic metabolism‚ uses fats‚ proteins and carbohydrates that are oxidized and turned into carbon dioxide and water. Anaerobic metabolism‚ uses only carbohydrates and enters the fluid‚ or cytoplasm‚ of the cell and is turned into lactic acid. Aerobic exercises are running‚ biking‚ and swimming‚ whereas anaerobic exercises are sprinting‚ jumping‚ weight training. 3. My activity is considered

Heart Rate Anticipatory Response: Anticipatory heart rate is the rate that the heart reaches before the start of exercise. Your heart rate usually picks up as a result of the anticipatory heart-rate response‚ this happens before exercise. When thinking about exercising before actually starting‚ the nerves that release the chemicals that adjust your heart rate increase the heart rate. The body expects exercise and therefore prepares for the activity‚ increasing the amount of oxygen being delivered
Premium Blood Heart Artery
Every day your heart pumps blood through a vast network of blood vessels around and around your body‚ delivering food and oxygen to cells and removing waste. The pulse (heart rate) is the number of times a person’s heart beats per minute (bpm). The pulse is a rhythmical throbbing of the arteries as blood is propelled through them‚ typically felt in the wrists or neck. Your resting heart rate occurs when you become relaxed or comfortable. These are shown when sitting or lying down. The ability to

This experiment focuses on the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis. In simple terms this refers to how the production rate of the products of photosynthesis (oxygen and glucose) will be affected by a light source at different distances. The hypothesis states that “If there is a higher light intensity‚ then more oxygen and glucose molecules will be produced‚ and the rate of photosynthesis will increase.” This hypothesis was accepted. This was determined by counting the number of
