* Would yeast produce more carbon dioxide with the presence of sugar at room temperature or in an incubator? | -Observing Cellular respiration in yeast cells. | Yeast Lab Background Information: Yeast is a tiny unicellular fungus that obtains energy from outside sources (a heterotroph) mostly sugars in order to grow and reproduce. Yeast is often used in bread dough to make the dough rise. With the presence of oxygen a yeast cell creates energy by performing cellular respiration and

baking Yeast helps raise the dough and also yeast is used in the process of making wine.The Reason why yeast was chosen to was to see how yeast can metabolize different sugars and how much Co2 they release when when metabolizing.To test the yeast at the lab we used 4 different types of carbohydrates which are known as Glucose‚Lactose‚Sucrose‚and Starch.The main thing that make some of these carbohydrates different from each other is if it’s a Monosaccharide‚ Disaccharide‚or Polysaccharide. Monosaccharide

exists in our small intestine and our small intestine uses acid to break down food. The result from the lab prove my hypothesis correct because lactase worked well at body temperature and it also worked well at pH of 4.5 to 5.5 mg/dl proving that lactase works best at an acidic pH number. The lab shows that the highest amount of glucose is made by temperatures close to body temperature. In our our lab‚ we found that at 35 °C 500 mg/dl glucose was produced‚ which was the highest number of glucose that

Results: Since the mass of the ball bearing used in this experiment was very light‚ 20 balls were measured and the result was divided by 20 for better accuracy. This procedure was repeated for the sizes and the results are as follows: Diameter (mm) Mass (kg) 2 0.04 3 0.075 4 0.11 To find out the densities of the three balls‚ the following formula was used: Density= (mass of the ball)/(Volume of the ball)= mass/(4/3 π r^3 ) Density of 2mm ball = (0.04⁄1000)/(4/3 π 〖(0.001)〗^3

is to observe the rate of diffusion of diethyl ether vapour into stagnant air‚ and then determine the diffusivity. An error analysis of this calculation also had to be carried out. The following assumptions made were: * Diethyl Ether is an ideal gas * Partial pressure at the top of the tube was equal to zero * Mass transfer resistance between the liquid surface at the bottom of the tube is insufficient‚ compared with the resistance in the tube * Mole fraction of Diethyl Ether at xA‚O is

Stoichiometry lab 1 Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to find the limiting reactant‚ also to find the percentage yield and percentage purity of the reaction that happens between Calcium Chloride and Sodium Carbonate. The other purpose was to know how the reaction can be balanced and created. Hypothesis: In this lab we are going to see a precipitation reaction. This is a reaction where two soluble salts Sodium Carbonate and Calcium Chloride are added together and the result is the precipitation

Meiossis and Genetic Diversity in Sordaria Meiosis and Genetic Diversity in the Model Organism‚ Sordaria. By: Katie Fiorillo BIO110 Lab TA: Lauren Smith October 30‚ 2012 A. INTRODUCTION: In this lab‚ the organism Sordaria fimicola was used to explore factors contributing to genetic evolution of sexual reproduction. These organisms are found in “Evolution Canyons‚” which occur when two mountain slopes with very different climatic conditions congregate with a comparatively small valley
