    The effect of nutrition on the activity of Artemia franciscana Intro: In most ecosystems‚ the availability of nutrition is the most limiting factor of population growth and activity (Fábregas‚ 1997). If there is a lack of food resources in a community or a lack of certain specific dietary requirements‚ then the physiology of that community and it’s fecundity should be noticeably affected. Nutrients like carbohydrates‚ proteins and fats are carried around the body‚ along with oxygen from the

    piece of coal: chock-full of energy‚ but useless when you want to power a stereo. Just as burning coal produces heat and energy in the form of electricity‚ the chemical processes of respiration convert the energy in glucose into usable form. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the usable form of energy produced by respiration. ATP is like electricity: it contains the same energy as coal‚ but it’s easier to transport and is just what’s needed when the cell needs some power to carry out a task. ATP ATP

    sites of cellular respiration which ultimately generates fuel for the cell’s activities. Mitochondria are also involved in other cell processes such as cell division and growth‚ as well as cell death. They convert oxygen and nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the chemical energy "currency" of the cell that powers the cell’s metabolic activities. This process is called aerobic respiration and is the reason animals breathe oxygen. Mitochondria are bounded by a double membrane. Each

    High School Department General Science How Does Phosphate Affect the Growth of Aquatic Plants? (A Problem Proposal) I. Introduction Aquatic plants are an important component of lake systems. These plants may be totally submerged beneath the lake surface‚ floating‚ or growing along the shoreline. They provide food and shelter for bugs‚ fish and other organisms‚ prevent shoreline erosion‚ filter pollutants from adjacent shoreline activities‚ and

    Fermentation Lab on-line #10 Objectives: Monitor respiration activity in yeast by observing CO2 production as sugar is metabolized Investigate the effects of temperature on yeast fermentation Respiration Living cells use ATP (adenosine triphosphate) as their energy "currency". The energy released when a molecule of ATP is hydrolyzed (ATP  ADP + PO4) is used to drive cellular reactions. To stay alive‚ a cell must continually regenerate its supply of ATP (from ADP & inorganic phosphate)

    As humans‚ we are the most dominant species in the world. We have the ability to walk upright‚ grasping thumbs‚ and large brains. This helps us to live and be successful on earth. But‚ these advantages we have didn’t happen overnight‚ they occurred during the hominine evolution. The skull‚ neck‚ spiral column‚ hip bones‚ and leg bones of the early hominine species changed shape in ways that later enabled species to walk upright. The evolution of dipedal‚ or two-footed‚ locomotion was very important

    breakdown of fructose. Energy obtained from carbohydrates goes through a process called glycolysis. Glycolysis a series of biochemical reactions in which one glucose molecule is oxidized into two pyruvic acid molecules and a small amount of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Generation of high energy molecules are used as cellular energy sources in aerobic and anaerobic respiration. The products formed through glycolysis usually enter into the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain to produce
