Effect of Boiling on the Rate of Aerobic Respiration of Germinating Peas Abstract Aerobic respiration is an enzyme mediated process during which glucose is used to make ATP to fuel the cells energy needs. Germination is one of such processes that make use of aerobic respiration and because certain factors can affect aerobic respiration‚ it would also affect germination. In this experiment‚ we examined the effects of boiling on the rate of aerobic respiration of germinating peas. Unboiled germinating

Part B: Practical Report The Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Aim: To investigate how temperature effects the enzyme catalase. Hypothesis: If the temperature of water is increased then the enzyme will react quicker to form oxygen and water‚ when compared to cold water. Purpose: To design and conduct a plan of a practical about the effects of temperature on enzymatic activity with a partner. Introduction: An enzyme is a protein‚ which speeds up a specific chemical reaction without altering

Cellular respiration is the process of breaking down chemical energy‚ most commonly glucose and oxygen‚ for use in the body as ATP with the release of water and carbon dioxide as bi-products (Mauseth‚ 2014). This process can be observed by careful analysis of the metabolic rate which is the total amount of energy released by an organism per unit mass. The respiratory quotient (R.Q) is the ratio of CO2 molecules lost per O2 molecules consumed which can be used to determine the efficiency of the metabolic

effect of temperature on beet cell membranes Introduction: Cell membrane is the plasma like substance that separates different organelles and molecules within an organism. The cell membranes vital function is to permit passage of protein and enzymes through their wall. Red beets‚ also known as Beta Vulgaris has a red pigment that is located in its large central vacuoles. It is my hypothesis that if the cell membrane is to experience extreme temperatures‚ then it’s most likely it will affect the

A study of the osmoregulatory capabilities in Nereis virens and Phascolopsis gouldi: osmoregulators vs. osmoconformers Introduction Water is essential for life as we know it on this planet‚ and according to Campbell et al. (1999)‚ water is the major constituent of cells. Reactions vital to life occur under aqueous conditions in the body and cells of all organisms‚ and the concentrations of reactants necessary for these reactions depend upon the amount of water present (Pough et al. 2004)

glucose to a solution of KMnO4 and H2SO4‚ the solution will turn colourless and it will take a specific time for the reaction to complete. By increasing the temperature‚ the time it takes (the rate) for the solution to completely change to colourless will be increased. Thus it can be said‚ that it is being hypothesized that an increase in temperature will cause an equal increase in the rate of the reaction. Method:1). Using a measuring cylinder‚ place 50 cm3 of sulphuric acid into a 250 cm3 beaker‚ add

Photosynthesis & cellular respiration are the main pathways of energy flow in living things. Photosynthesis is a process by which plants and some other organisms convert‚ light energy from the sun‚ CO2 from the air & H2O from the earth‚ into chemical energy stored in molecules like glucose. Cellular respiration is a process in which O2 is delivered to cells in an organism & metabolic process in cells leads to the production of ATP by the breakdown of organic substances. Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondrion
