In this lab‚ the class tested the effect of temperature on the rate of fermentation in yeast by measuring the height of CO2 produced in a graduated cylinder at varying degrees Celsius. Yeast can perform cellular respiration and fermentation‚ the first needing oxygen (aerobic) and the second not (anaerobic). Cellular respiration is the normal way human bodies’ make energy‚ but when lacking oxygen‚ cells undergo fermentation‚ which creates less energy than respiration‚ CO2‚ and lactic acid (though

Experiment 1 (week 2) The purpose of this experiment is to become familiar with the precision and accuracy of scientific glassware. I figured the smaller the glassware the more accurate the measurements would be. Which when we were preforming the experiment proved my theory. As the glassware got smaller the easier it was to get the accurate amount of water into the glassware. We went from a big flask to a small beaker to an even smaller pipette. We used a scale to get the appropriate weight

November 3‚ 2014 Chemistry 1411- 106 Pre Lab Experiment #8 Objective: This Lab will help us to understand oxidation reduction and double displacement through finding the percent composition of pennies. We will also once again be working with titration in this lab. We will titrate the solution until we are only left with a solid form which will tell us about the composition of pennies. Introduction: The weight of a post 1982 penny is 2.5 grams‚ and the percent of zinc is 97.5% leaving only 2.5% copper

hypotheses based on predictions questions. First‚ yeast will metabolize sugar and produce a gas. This is because yeast is a living organism and all living organisms like yeast must use energy (such as sugar) to obtain energy. Yeast will metabolize sugar and gives off carbon dioxide as a by-product. For the second hypothesis‚ we were expecting that yeast will produce a gas when sugar is available. For the third hypothesis‚ we did not expect yeast to produce a gas when no sugar or other food is available

Ebrahim Abdulaziz Design Lab Report Research Question: How is the rate of yeast fermentation of 7.5g of yeast affected by using different companies of yeast (Bakon Yeast Inc.‚ Lake States Yeast LLC‚ Lesaffre Yeast Corp‚ Red Star Yeast Company‚ and Minn-Dak Yeast CO Inc.)? Background Information: Yeast is a fungal microorganism that is used to manufacture mainly bread and beer. It reproduces rapidly. Fermentation is the process by which yeast takes in sugar and releases alcohol and carbon

In the yeast discovery lab we had to decided what the outcome would be then perform the experiment. The experiment was done during class time‚ so everyone’s results would be the same. There were four bottles with warm water in them and to those bottles were added yeast. Then to one of each bottle there was added sugar‚ corn syrup‚ corn starch. To the fourth bottle there was only yeast added and used as a control group. Balloons were then stretched onto the top of the bottles to catch any gas the

In bio lab‚ my lab partners and I did a lab experiment involving yeast fermentation. Fermentation is an anaerobic process to regenerate NAD+ to keep glycolysis active. Yeast preforms ethanol fermentation which create ethanol and NAD+. The class used six different types of sugars to determine which fuels fermentation by measuring the amount the carbon dioxide bubbles produced by the yeast. Yeast are single-cell fungi that cannot make their own food. They take the sugars in the surrounding environment

Module 2 Exam Review This review is neither a replica of the exam nor does it contain every concept in the module. It is always best practice to review all lessons and assessments. Resubmitting is a great way to review/learn and improve your grade. There are approximately 32 questions (about 3 are essays) on the regular exam; approximately 42 questions (about 5 are essays) on the honors exam. The number in parenthesis is the lesson. None of the honors lessons are in this review. The answer
