carefully‚ as safety will be an issue throughout the whole experiment. We will wear goggles and an apron or lab coat to protect our eyes and clothes. As we are using enzymes and Hydrogen Peroxide we need to be extra careful‚ ensuring they don’t come into contact with our eyes‚ skin or clothes. Catalyse is an enzyme found in all living cells. It makes Hydrogen Peroxide decompose into water and Oxygen. We will be measuring the amount of Oxygen released from the Hydrogen Peroxide. In

Stomach cancer‚ also known as gastric cancer‚ is a type of cancer that develops slowly over many years. Most frequently‚ stomach cancer starts in the lining of the stomach otherwise knows as the mucosa‚ and then develops into the other layers of the stomach. There are many ways in which stomach cancer spreads. In some cases it invades near by organs or it can also travel through the bloodstream to for cancer in other organs. There are many statistics and organizations of support for stomach cancer

Introduction “The Enzyme Reaction” An enzyme is a protein that acts as a catalyst‚ which brings out a biochemical reaction. A Catalase enzyme‚ the enzyme tested in this experiment‚ is found in almost all living organisms that are exposed daily to oxygen (such as fruits‚ vegetables and animals). Background Information The Catalase enzyme in this experiment is known for being less affective the warmer the temperature is. According to “Science fair projects” an enzyme becomes unstable

What is Enzyme? Enzymes are protein that acts as speed up reactions and break down molecules in our body. However‚ different enzymes only work on certain types of molecules. Enzymes can accelerate the reactions by more than one million times.(3) In our human body‚ there are a total about forty thousand types of enzymes and each catalyzes different kind of molecule.(3) The molecules that enzymes help to accelerate is called substrates‚ and when enzyme is combined together with the substrate‚ it

Temperature effects on the growth of microorganisms Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effects that temperature has on three different organisms. Temperature is one of the most important environmental factors affecting growth and survival of microorganisms². The three organisms used where Escherichia coli‚ Pseudomonas fluorescens‚ and Bacillus stearothermophilis. Most bacteria grow within a particular temperature range. The minimum growth temperature is

Investigating the effect of temperature on plant cell membranes The purpose of this activity is: • to practise experimental and investigative skills • to investigate the effect of temperature on cell membrane structures Procedure SAFETY: Always carry scalpels clasped to a tile and with the tip pointing away from you. Beetroot cells contain pigments called betalains that give the tissue its dark purple-red colour. The pigment is contained in the cell vacuole. Investigation

Declamation piece: The Fetus in the Stomach Last night‚ I had a strange dream. I dreamed that I was a tiny dot in the womb of my mother. Formed by love‚ and blessed by the Lord. I could not see‚ I could not hear‚ but I could feel that I was loved. Embrace by the warm tenderness of my mother’s flesh. Here‚ I breathe on my mother’s breath! Here I fed on my mother’s food! Oh what a place to live! Oh what a place to grow! I was extremely happy in my little world. Believe me‚ it was happiness

Usman Omid Biology IB 1A The Effect of Temperature on Beetroot Membranes _Aim_ This practical will test the effect of temperature on the integrity of the membranes‚ _Introduction_ The cells of beetroot contain a pigment called betalain in their vacuoles. It is kept inside the cells by the membranes. If these membranes are damaged‚ then the betalain leaks out. The amount that leaks out can be assessed‚ as the leaked out pigment will color the water surrounding the cells. This information can

aim of this experiment was to determine the effect of caffeine on resting body temperature. This has to do with homeostasis‚ which is the maintenance of equilibrium. In other words‚ it is a stable body state. Homeostasis refers to the process of keeping the internal body environment in a steady state‚ when the external environment is changed (Homeostasis 2). Humans are warm-blooded creatures that generate body heat internally and maintain body temperatures at a fairly constant level – about 98.6oF
