Design Experiment: Enzyme Inhibitors. Research question: What is the effect of adding lead nitrate solution on the activity of amylase enzyme? Aim: To test the effect of adding nitrate solution on the activity of amylase. Background Information: Inhibitors are molecules which repress or prevent another molecule from engaging in a reaction. They are substances that attach themselves onto an enzyme and reduce or prevent the enzyme’s ability to catalyse reactions. Competitive Inhibitors are inhibitors

* Bibliography............................................................................................... Aim: The aim of the experiment that was carried out was to see‚ at what temperature and in which standard solution‚ does the amount of dye left in the boiling tube had the highest percentage transmission. Beetroot was used for the experiment because it was easier to see the dye after the practical was completed. Putting beetroot cylinders into different boiling tubes‚ which contained

string was not held tightly‚ the balloon bounced around quite a bit and did not travel as far. In this lab‚ I was examining the amount of power and work that was done by the balloon as it travelled. But was the balloon efficient? Efficiency means the “ratio of useful work out from the total amount of work done‚ as a percentage.” Therefore‚ if there are a lot of energy transfers‚ this means that the lab is not efficient. For example‚ on the balloon’s motion‚ there are points where energy is lost. When

Experiment 4A: Determination of a Partition Coefficient for Benzoic Acid in Methylene Chloride and Water Experiment 4B: Solvent Extraction I: Acid-Base Extraction Using the System Benzoic Acid‚ Methylene Chloride‚ and Sodium Bicarbonate Solution Objective A: To accustom participants (students) to general procedures that are used to obtain a partition coefficient at the microscale level. We will gain experience in such practices as the transfer of microliter volumes of solutions with a Pasteur filter

Biology College of Science De La Salle University – Dasmariñas Dasmariñas‚ Cavite Philippines ABSTRACT This experiment was performed to learn the technique of acid-base titration and to compare the efficiency of commercially available antacids by looking at their weight of HCl and weight of antacid values. The analysis of antacid tablets was highlighted in this experiment. The efficiency of antacid tablets was determined and compared when the number of grams of HCl can be neutralized by

of the consequences of excessive drinking. After connecting with her‚ I wanted to know if alcohol concentration in spirits would affect the cells in the body. Thus‚ I decided to test my theory by adapting a class beetroot experiment to my investigation. The aim of this experiment is to investigate the effect of alcohol concentration on a biotic cell membrane. The human body cannot live long with damaged cells because they are the building blocks of life. Cell membranes are phospholipid bilayers meaning
