Homeostasis Lab: The Effects of Exercise on Homeostasis Purpose: To discover the effect that various levels of exercise have on specific body parameters. Hypothesis: If a subject walks up and down a flight of stairs for eight minutes‚ then they start to sweat more‚ their heart rate‚ body temperature‚ and breathing rate will increase‚ and there will be a change in their skin color on their arms and face‚ because the body will be trying to maintain homeostasis. Materials: You will

The purpose of this lab was to determine the effects of changes in variables such as temperature‚ pH and concentration on catalase enzyme activity. Proteins are organic compounds made up of amino acid subunits consisting of carboxyl and amino functional groups‚ linked together by peptide bonds through condensation reactions. They are an essential part of all living organisms. Enzymes are “biological catalyst used to speed up chemical reactions (Athanasopoulos‚ 2014). Normally‚ for chemical reactions;

closer the heart rate should be to the resting heart rate of the Daphnia. Possible errors that could have gone wrong are the duration given to allow for the absorption of the different concentration of salt solutions due to the limited time during the lab period and the distinguishing of the separate heart beats and the inaccuracy of a constant time being off by points of a

Conclusion In a prior lab‚ it was given that the enzyme Aspergillus oryzae (fungus) works best at warm temperatures and an acidic pH‚ porcine (pig) works best at body temperature (37 ºC) and

Introduction Human cilia play a critical part in human processes. Human cilia are hair-like projections that extend from the surface of a cell. Cilia are capable of rhythmic motion and acts together from separate strands so that the cell is capable of movement. Flagella are a whip-like structure that is found in cells as well that allow for the movement of the cell. Human cilia are characterized as having “metachronal rhythm" and this means is a rhythm that "changes time" to produce wave. The beating

Results: Since the mass of the ball bearing used in this experiment was very light‚ 20 balls were measured and the result was divided by 20 for better accuracy. This procedure was repeated for the sizes and the results are as follows: Diameter (mm) Mass (kg) 2 0.04 3 0.075 4 0.11 To find out the densities of the three balls‚ the following formula was used: Density= (mass of the ball)/(Volume of the ball)= mass/(4/3 π r^3 ) Density of 2mm ball = (0.04⁄1000)/(4/3 π 〖(0.001)〗^3

Safety glasses must also be worn throughout the lab to protect the eyes from chemicals. Potential injury may arise from razor blades and cork borers. Lab coats must be fully fastened to protect clothes from staining. 2. Chemical Hazards The solvents (acetone and methanol) should not be inhaled as it can cause damage to mucous membranes. They can also
