PROCEDURE: Part A (Effect of temperature on growth) 1) 15 tubes of glucose broth are provided and one set of 3 tubes are inoculated with each of the following cultures; Escherichia coli‚ Pseudomonas fluorescens‚ Micrococcus luteus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The last served as control. 2) One of the three tube of each culture is incubated at each of the following temperature: * 4°C * 37°C * 55°C 3) All the tubes are incubated within 5 minutes after inoculating.

December 2012 1. Title and Author 1. The Effect of Extreme Temperatures on the Rate of Photosynthesis 2. Jeffrey Xia 2. Abstract A previous lab in which we conducted‚ tested whether or not the light intensity had an effect on the rate of photosynthesis. We concluded that light intensity did possess an effect on the rate of photosynthesis – the closer the experimental plant units were to the light source‚ the more experimental plant units exhibited the effect of gas exchange in photosynthesis.

The Effects of Various Chemicals and Temperature on Membrane Permeability of Beetroot Name: Ghazal Daneshfar E-mail: GDANES200@caledonian.ac.uk Student ID: S1312108 INTRODUCTION The cell membrane consists of mostly phospholipids and proteins which gives the cell its selectively permeable nature. The function and permeability of the cell membrane depends on its whole structure. When destroyed‚ the permeability of the cell membrane is disrupted causing cellular contents to leak out

Aim: To investigate the effect to the potato cells in the different solute concentration water Introduction; Water can move through the different cells due to the difference of water potentials in the cells. If there is a higher solute concentration in the cell than outside the cell‚ the water will move into the cell. However‚ if the concentration of inside the cell is lower than the outside‚ water will not move into the cell. This process is called osmosis. Research question; This investigation

The Effect of Temperature on Beet Cell Membranes Introduction In this lab‚ we are going to learn how the stress of temperature affects fresh beets. We have come to learn that cell membranes organize the chemical activities of cells. All cells are made of plasma membranes‚ often called fluid mosaics. It is sometimes described as a mosaic because it is made of protein molecules that are embedded into phospholipids. Phospholipids are the main structural support of the membrane and the proteins

process can be affected by several variables; one of the most notable variables is the temperature of the plant’s environment. Previous study has led me to conclude that when the temperature of the plants’ environment is low‚ the rate of photosynthesis is also low because the enzymes responsible for photosynthesis are not able to absorb as much heat energy and in turn will move slower. In contrast‚ if the temperature of the plant’s environment increases‚ the rate of photosynthesis will also increase

Aim: Investigate the effect of different temperatures and chemicals including various pH levels‚ alcohol and detergent on the cell membrane structure as well as function. Hypothesis: Increasing the temperature and pH levels which the beetroot membrane cells are exposed to will increase the amount of dye that passes out of the membrane.
