the different energy contents in food and different amounts of energy released when consumed. Throughout this experiment our procedure was to take different food samples and use a device known as a calorimeter made from a can of aluminum‚ one large paper clips and a string of copper wire to measure the amount of thermal energy released during a reaction. By measuring the temperature difference before and after a reaction‚ the calorimeter indicates how much energy is released. From personal experiences

Staph infections are caused by a staphylococcus bacterium‚ Staphylococcus aureus. S. aureus is a purple‚ cocci shaped cell with its morphological arrangements in grape-like clusters‚ it is determined by a bacteriological stain‚ known as the Gram stain. This determines it to be a gram positive bacterium. When grown on bacteriological media‚ S. aureus appears as a large white to golden colony. It is not very fastidious but it grows well‚ either aerobically or under anaerobic conditions and produces

Biology coursework The aim of this experiment is to investigate the affect of pH on the enzyme amylase. The amylase is used to break down the polysaccharide starch. Amylase is a digestive enzyme classified as a saccharidase (an enzyme that cleaves polysaccharides). It is mainly a constituent of pancreatic juice and saliva‚ needed for the breakdown of long-chain carbohydrates (such as starch) into smaller units. Amylase is also synthesized in the fruit of many plants during ripening‚ causing them
