Abby Goldschmidt Honors Biology 2° Mrs. Gempel September 3‚ 2015 Daphnia Lab Results Paper Abstract The goal of the study was to observe the effects of multiple chemicals on a Daphnia magna’s heart-rate compared to a control (pond water). The different chemicals were caffeine and alcohol. The heart-rate was the main variable in this experiment. The Daphnia’s heart-rate was observed for 15 seconds and then multiplied by 4 to show its heart-rate in one minute. This was repeated 4 times for each

ENG 111 Silent Killer The liver helps digest food‚ absorb nutrients and expel toxins from the body. Recent studies show that one in ten children in US is thought to have a liver disease that was thought to afflict alcoholic adults. The condition has become very common in non-drinkers that it has been dubbed nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Whenever someone gets the disease‚ the organ becomes bloated and discolored due to the fatty cells. This disease is alarming doctors because it progresses

Recombinant plasmids are when DNA fragments are inserted into a plasmid vector. The recognition site is where the plasmid gets cut by the restriction enzyme which is an enzyme that cuts a DNA molecule. Recombinant DNA is the DNA being inserted into the E.Coli. The purpose of the lab is to see if we can make the E.Coli glow and resistant to ampicillin. In the lab we were transforming a north american jellyfish by the name Aequorea victoria to produce GFP‚ which is a fluorescent protein which causes them

Headline: Abnormal Liver Enzymes: What Does It Mean? Keywords: Liver‚ increase‚ enzymes‚ symptoms‚ test Page Description: Elevated liver enzyme is a condition in which there is an increase in the leakage of chemicals i.e. liver enzymes through liver cells. This hike leads to symptoms of various health problems. Blood test can be used in determining the associated causes and symptoms. Text: { What is meant by Elevated Liver Enzymes? Elevated liver enzymes are a common problem. Inflammation or

The purpose of lab number thirteen was to examine the response of the daphnia to a chemical stimulant. Also examined was how human resting heart rates differed from the daphnia’s. Stimulants are any substances that raise the levels of activity in the body. Stimulants could be a number of things such as physical or chemical. Physical stimulus usually deal with something that affects the five senses such as sight‚ hearing these could be attributed to loud noises or too much light going into your eye

The Effect of Different Concentrations of the Enzyme Catechol Oxidase on the Rate of Benzoquinone Production When Mixed with Pure Catechol Carson Levine November 4th‚ 2013 Abstract Catechol oxidase is an enzyme that speeds up the oxidation reaction when catechol is exposed to oxygen. When the reaction occurs‚ benzoquinone is produced turning the oxidized substance brown. It was hypothesized that the higher the concentration of catechol oxidase‚ the browner the

Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to measure the effects of changes in temperatures and pH on enzyme activity in skeletal muscle‚ particularly the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). LDH is a glycolytic enzyme which converts pyruvate to lactate in the following equation: LDH Pyruvate+ NADH ------------ Lactate + NAD The reaction above can move in both directions‚
