study was to test the rate of reactivity of the enzyme catalase on hydrogen peroxide while subject to different concentrations of an inhibitor. The hypothesis was that hydrogen peroxide will be broken down by catalase into hydrogen and oxygen‚ where a higher concentration of inhibitor will yield less oxygen‚ resultant of a lower rate of reaction. Crushed potato samples of equal weight were placed in hydrogen peroxide solutions of various temperatures. The results showed that less gas was produced as the

The Catalase Lab Stephen Human Anatomy & Physiology 9/30/12 Problem- How do different environments affect the reactivity of catalase? Hypothesis- If more catalase is added then more oxygen (kPa) will be produced in a faster rate because there is more catalase to react upon. If less catalase is added then less oxygen (kPa) will be produced in a slower rate because there is less catalase to react upon. Variable- Independent- Amount of Catalase (Filter Paper) Dependent- Amount of

Yeast which is also known as Saccharomyces Cerevisiae is a unicellular eukaryotic Fungi means that is made up of one cell with a nucleus(“What is Yeast”).Yeast is a very practical product that is used in mainy way like when baking Yeast helps raise the dough and also yeast is used in the process of making wine.The Reason why yeast was chosen to was to see how yeast can metabolize different sugars and how much Co2 they release when when metabolizing.To test the yeast at the lab we used 4 different

and Type Of Sugar on Yeast Fermentation Lab Purpose: To measure and analyze the effects of various types and masses of sugar in an ethanol fermentation reaction with yeast. Introduction: Ethanol fermentation is a system in which hydrogen ions from NADH + H+ are broken down in order to release the trapped energy and regenerate NAD+. In the absence of a mitochondria or oxygen ethanol is formed‚ which is typically found in bacteria and some yeast. Yeast fermentation has been used

hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into water and oxygen gas. An enzyme known as catalase facilitates this decomposition reaction. The catalase enzyme acts as catalysis‚ helping lower the energy needed to activate the reaction while the enzyme itself is not affected. Catalase is a digestive enzyme used to break down hydrogen peroxide‚ which is a normal byproduct of cellular respiration. The reaction could take place without the help of catalase‚ but it would happen a lot more slowly because more energy is needed

ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION IN YEAST AIM: See the effect of temperature in anaerobic respiration of yeast by counting carbon dioxide bubbles. HYPHOTESIS: Anaerobic respiration in yeast will decrease as temperature increases. VARIABLES: Independent: Temperature Dependent: Rate of anaerobic respiration in yeast Fix: Volume of sugar solution (40ml) ‚ Concentration of sugar solution‚ yeast mass (2g)‚ volume of solution of yeast & sugar all together (20ml) MATERIALS: Delivering tube 2 test tubes

Aerobic respiration in yeast Research question: What was the effect of anaerobic respiration in different environments determined the increase in size of a dough by the temperature? Hypothesis: It is hypothesized that if the temperature increases the dough will become bigger and bigger. Independent variable: (change) • Temperature • Height of the dough Dependent variable: (doesn’t change) • Amount of vegetable oil • Time • Volume of yeast solution Control variables: Variable

the bacterium was a gram negative or a gram positive. After performing the gram stain‚ I concluded that by the appearance of purple spherical clusters resembling grapes that is was a gram positive cocci. A Catalase test was then performed using hydrogen peroxide. A positive catalase test was observed when bubbles started to form on the culture distinguishing Staphylococcus spp. form on the culture distinguishing Staphylococcus spp. from Streptococcus spp. Finally‚ a Mannitol Salt Agar
