Temperature Effects on Radish (Raphanus sativus) Root Development Abstract Several studies have been conducted to establish how temperature‚ seed germination‚ and root growth are related. Because temperature plays a main role in many growth processes‚ we decided to focus on how it affected root growth. Radish (Raphanus sativus) seeds were chosen due to their ability to produce a distinct bulbous tuber‚ and their relatively short growing time. Three test groups were placed under different temperature

An investigation into the effects of temperature on enzyme action An enzyme is a biological catalyst that speeds up the rate of reaction in certain biological functions. They play a vital role in many aspects of human physiology and are necessary for the functioning of a number of systems‚ for example in the digestive system to help to break down food. All enzymes have a unique active site that can fit on to a particular molecular arrangement on a target substrate; a substance e.g. carbohydrate

The solubility of calcium hydroxide Aim: to find out the solubility of a substance that only partially dissolves in water. Method: place about 100cm3 of distilled water in a flask and add about one spatula of solid calcium hydroxide. Stopper the flask and shake well for one minute. Leave to stand for at least 24 hours. Titrate 10cm3 samples against 0.05 mol dm-3 hydrochloric acid solution using methyl orange as an indicator. Obtain enough results to calculate an accurate average‚ and then

The effect of different temperature on the cell respiration. Introduction： Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds in cells to form ATP‚and then release waste products. The process of cell respiration can take place in the presence or absence of oxygen. In either case‚the first stage of cell respiration is glycolysis.The effect of temperature on cell respiration mainly depends on the effect of temperature on of enzyme activity.Generally speaking in a certain

Modeling Effective Dose: Salt Tasting lab Purpose The purpose of this lab is to see at what measurements (of salt) can the salt be detected by taste. Abstract The science of toxicology is based on the principle that there is a relationship between a toxic reaction (the response) and the amount of poison received (the dose). An important assumption in this relationship is that there is almost always a dose below which no response occurs or can be measured. A second assumption is that once a maximum

To investigate the effect of temperature on an enzyme controlled reaction Introduction and planning For the investigation of enzymes‚ I am going to conduct an experiment to see how temperature can affect the rate of reaction of enzymes by testing it with starch. The enzyme that we are going to use is called amylase. We are going to test this enzyme with starch. By mixing amylase and starch solutions together under different temperature conditions‚ we can record the rate of reaction by taking a

Title of Experiment: The Effect of Temperature on the Hatching Success of Brine Shrimps. Abstract In this experiment‚ 40 brine shrimp eggs are put into a test tube containing salt water at different temperature such as 25°C and 35°C respectively. The eggs are left from two days to hatch. After two days‚ the number of eggs successfully hatched are observed and counted. Introduction Brine shrimp is the common name for a primordial crustacean that reaches less than 1.3 cm in length and is usually

Effect of Osmotic Stress and Temperature on Microbial Growth BIO 3400-002L – Microbiology Lab 1 Effect of Osmotic Stress and Temperature on Microbial Growth Luiz Felipe Isidoro ABSTRACT Evolution allowed primitive forms of life to develop proteins and enzymes that made it possible for life to evolve under environments with hostile conditions‚ such as high salt and heat. More specifically‚ some bacteria selected genes that code for peptides with stronger intermolecular forces‚ coping

BUOYANCY PHYSICS Student: Instructor: Criteria : Design Introduction The purpose of this experiment to find the effect of temperature on buoyancy . Backround Information Buoyancy (also known as the buoyant force) is the force exerted on an object that is wholly or partly immersed in a fluid. The symbol for the magnitude of buoyancy is B or FB As a vector it must be stated with both magnitude and direction. Buoyancy acts upward for the kind of situations encountered in everyday experience
