In contrast‚ heart rate is increased by the sympathetic nervous system (neurotransmitter: noradrenaline) and the hormone adrenaline circulating in the blood via activation of cell surface receptors in the sinoatrial node - pacemaker) (called beta-1 adrenoceptors). This occurs during exercise or fear. The effect is to increase the rate of ejection of blood by the heart. This means that there will be more blood flow to skeletal muscle (in which exercise causes dilatation of blood vessels)‚ so the

Carbon dioxide‚ or CO2‚ also played a big role in this experiment. Many soft drinks contain CO2. Studies show that Sierra Mist had the most carbonation out of most soft drinks. There was a lot of carbon dioxide in the soda. That was the reason the raisins would float up and down. There were many purposes to this experiment. One purpose was to teach us about

The main focus of this experiment was to find the relationship between temperature and the enzyme activity of amylase. This was achieved by attaining amylase enzyme‚ starch solution and potassium iodide (determines if enzymes hydrolyses the starch solution)‚ water bath and a hot plate. The temperatures used for this experiment were room temperature‚ 37oC‚ 60oC‚ 80oC‚ and 90oC. The hypothesis developed was that as the temperature increased‚ so will enzyme activity. Therefore‚ the ability of the
