Lab Report: Toothpickase and Enzymes September 19‚ 2012 Olivia DePhillips Lab Partner: Joy Morgan Meyers Signature: Introduction Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process‚ called substrates‚ are converted into different molecules‚ called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates sufficient for life. Like all catalysts‚ enzymes work

The two main themes associated with microbiology are (1) having an understanding of the nature and function of the microbial world‚ and (2) being able to apply that understanding of the microbial world so that the benefits to the Earth and humans are known(6). This lab specifically does not require the knowledge of what each organism does when introduced to another living organism‚ like a human. Figuring out the type of bacteria could help with further experiments. The idea of the unknown bacteria

Adwoa Fosuah Bio Psych Lab Report 4 Cold Pressor Task Aim The cold pressor test is done by having the subject submerge their hands in a bucket of cold water to determine cardiovascular changes such as blood pressure and heart rate. For this experiment we wanted to know how long participant can keep their feet in the bucket of ice water before they experience any pain while looking at neutral and positive pictures and also rate the intensity of their pain. For this reason we hypothesized that

Lab Report The Effect of Resting on Clothespin Squeezing. Hypothesis: If you rest then the clothespin squeezing rate will increase. Materials:- Clothespin Clock Sneakers Procedure: Separate class into two groups (exercisers and resters). Exercisers will do jumping jacks for a minute. Exercisers and registers will squeeze clothespin for a minute Repeat steps two and three. Total of three trails. Precaution: Shoes must be tied. Space between exercisers. Healthy exercisers

Kiley O’Toole Lab Report 3 Purpose The purpose of this lab was to uncover the number of layers of zinc atoms around a piece of galvanized iron. This was done by pouring the hydrochloric acid onto the galvanized iron‚ thus removing the zinc from the piece of metal. Laboratory Procedure 1. Measured and recorded the mass of a piece of galvanized iron using a centigram balance and a ruler 2. Measured and recorded the length and width of the galvanized iron using the ruler 3. Put the

scientists do and what engineers do. In this experiment‚ we examined kinetic friction.We performed two teststo see which physical properties affect kinetic friction. In the first part ofthe experiment‚ we determined if the surface area of a block affectsthe coefficient of kinetic friction between two surfaces. In the second part of the experiment‚ we determined that varying the materials between two sliding surfaces changesthe coefficient of kinetic friction between them. Finally‚ in both parts

Lab #4: The Immune System Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to perform and understand the procedures of conducting an ELISA test to determine whether a particular antibody is present in a patient’s blood sample through a virtual simulation. Hypothesis: If I successfully complete this lab‚ I will then understand how to perform an ELISA test‚ the purpose an ELISA test‚ and also how to interpret the results of this test.

Lab Report 7: Analysis of Cereal Introduction: The objective of this lab was to consult for the FDA regarding a recently surfaced scandal involving false reporting of iron content in cereal as well as iron tablets. The makers of the cereal and the iron tablets‚ respectively‚ were allegedly reporting higher amounts of iron in their products than actually existed‚ as a way to save money but continue to provide products with “adequate” amounts of iron. The FDA needed consulting in order to analyze

Lab Report Abstract: The purpose of this lab was to see how magnesium reacts with oxygen. This reaction must be forced with heat. As magnesium changes to magnesium oxide the mass increased. Procedure: 1. Set up the stand and bunsen burne. 2. Go to crucible heat oven to obtain a crucible. 3. Weigh the crucible and lids mass. 4. Break up the magnesium ribbon on the crucible and weigh the mass of the magnesium‚ crucible‚ and lid. 5. Place the crucible on the ring stand over the flame. Allow
