of respiration in yeast and find out what factors affect the rate of respiration. I am going to change the concentration of the glucose solution and I’m going to measure the volume of gas produced during respiration in cm³. Yeast contains enzymes. Enzymes speed up a chemical reaction – they’re biological catalysts. Yeast can respire both aerobically and anaerobic; the anaerobic respiration of yeast is known as fermentation. The equation for this type of respiration in yeast is: Glucose Carbon

October 12th 2014! The Effect of Glucose on The Cellular Respiration of Yeast! Purpose: ! The purpose of this lab is to determine if the quantity glucose solution will increase or decrease the rate at which cellular respiration occurs at within the tested 20% yeast suspension.! Question:! What are the effects of increasing or decreasing the quantity of 0.06mol/L glucose solution on the cellular respiration within the tested yeast molecules?! Hypothesis: ! When the quantity of glucose solution is increased

What is yeast? To most people yeast is just something that is in the food that we eat; However to the scientific community yeast is much more then that. According to the Dictionary of Student Science yeast is a one-celled fungi that can cause the fermentation of carbohydrates‚ producing carbon dioxide and alcohol. ( ) Yeasts are found in the soil‚ in water‚ on the surface of plants‚ and on the skin of humans and other animals. Like other fungi‚ yeasts obtain food from the organic matter around

Yogurt Fermentation Yogurt is made by lactic acid fermentation. The main (starter) cultures in yogurt are Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. The function of the starter cultures is to ferment lactose (milk sugar) to produce lactic acid. The increase in lactic acid decreases pH and causes the milk to clot‚ or form the soft gel that is characteristic of yogurt. The fermentation of lactose also produces the flavor compounds that are characteristic of yogurt. Lactobacillus

Carbohydrate Loading There are many threats to an athlete during physical endurance competition whether it is a marathon or the decathlon. The most common forms of these threats include hypoglycaemia‚ fatigue‚ and loss of morale (which is usually caused by hypoglycaemia and fatigue). There is one connection that can be made between these threats and that is that all are caused one way or another through the lack of carbohydrates (Peterson). The most common way to combat these threats

Carbon‚ Hydrogen and Oxygen. These three simple elements make up one of the most useful substances for many living organisms: Carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are used for numerous processes in organisms from acting in important roles of cellular recognition in the human body to storing chemical energy in plants in the form or starch. The roles of carbohydrates in the human body alone are numerous; providing energy for working muscles‚ providing energy for the regulation of blood glucose‚ preventing

Carbohydrates For my health project I did carbohydrates. They are the bodies energy source. Carbohydrates supply the body with the energy it needs to function. They are found almost exclusively in plant foods‚ such as fruits‚ vegetables‚ peas‚ and beans. Milk and milk products are the only foods derived from animals that contain a significant amount of carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are divided into two groups‚ simple carbohydrates and complex carbohydrates. Simple carbohydrates‚ sometimes
Premium Glucose Sugar Carbohydrate
Complex Carbohydrates PERSONAL SUMARY: There is a very real difference between simple and complex carbohydrates. Let’s look at them. Simple carbohydrates‚ found in rice‚ pasta‚ white potatoes‚ and some dairy products‚ contain sugars that are broken down quickly by your body. This will provide your body with a quick burst of energy‚ but if the carbohydrates are not used quickly‚ the sugar will turn to fat. That’s why low-carb diets cut them out. But those diets often lump all carbs together

Nutrition Research Task – Year 10 Pass Carbohydrate loading is a strategy involving changes to training and nutrition that can maximise muscle glycogen stores prior to endurance competition. The technique was originally developed in the late 1960’s and typically involved a 3-4 day ’depletion phase’ involving 3-4 days of hard training plus a low carbohydrate diet. This depletion phase was thought to be necessary to stimulate the enzyme glycogen synthase. This was then followed immediately by
