Like cement sets the foundation for a house‚ the cell theory sets the foundation for biology. Schleiden and Schwann proposed the cell theory‚ which states that the cell is the basic unit of life and that new cells arise only from the reproduction of already existing cells via cell cycle‚ in 1839. Since the cell is the structural and functional unit of life as the house is for a community‚ without the house the community would be irritated and would not be stable‚ the community would therefore cease

Glucose‚ followed by Sucrose and Fructose respectively. Given more time I believe that Sucrose would have surpassed glucose in total rate (ml CO2/hr) as time and energy was taken as the yeasts cells broke Sucrose down into its glucose and Fructose monomers. That being said with all the substrates being of .14M in addition to being the limiting reagent of the reaction Sucrose entered .14M Glucose and .14M Fructose into the glycolytic pathway where as Glucose only entered .14M of glucose into the glycolytic

thermal coefficient of expansion and polymerization shrinkage reduce and the overall handling esthetic results are improved (4). Different resins have different wear results due to their filler particles. Macrofilled resins have a higher amount of monomers compared to hybrid and microfilled composites and this result in higher wear rate of composite because of the large diameter of the main filler (5). The majority of filler used today is silicon dioxide; quartz and boron silicates and lithium aluminum

1 11/8/2006 Techniques of Polymerisation: 1) Bulk or Mass Polymerisation: Method: Pre-polymerisation stage. Monomer is in liquid state and initiator dissolved in monomer is taken in a vessel and heated initially to poln temp. by a hot jacket to initiate the reaction. Monomer is added with constant agitation/ stirring for effective heat and mass transfer. Polymerisation reaction involves extensive bond formation in homogenous system and is exothermic. (25 – 30% poln) Post poln stage :- As the

because they have saved and improved the quality of our lives when applied in medical practices. Polymers are macro molecules composed of more minuscule units called monomers. Polymers can be either synthetic or natural‚ such as cellulose which is a natural polymer found in plants. Research has shown that replacing natural monomers into synthetic polymers creates polymers that are biodegradable in the human body. This process creates biodegradable polymers. Biodegradable polymers‚ also known as biomaterials

Ch.2 Essential chemistry for Biology 1. Water is precious to life because living organisms use water as the medium (solvent) for chemical reactions necessary to sustain life. Water also helps maintain temperatures. Droughts are disastrous because they can wipe out crops‚ which in turn cause famine. 2. MATTER: Composed of chemical elements‚ occupies space and has mass (ex: solid‚ liquid‚ and gas states.) CHEMICAL ELEMENTS: substance that cannot be broken down into other substances by chemical reactions

Chemical Background By definition‚ plastics are polymers‚ large molecules consisting of chains or rings of connected monomer units. Bioplastics are biopolymers derived from renewable biomass sources rather petroleum and can also be designed to be biodegradable although not all are. No variety of bioplastic possesses a particular molecular formula‚ since each class of bioplastic

Testing for the Presence of Lipids‚ Proteins‚ and Carbohydrates in McDonald’s Menu Items Emma Heironimus‚ White 3 There are four main macromolecules; proteins‚ nucleic acids‚ lipids‚ and carbohydrates. The presence of some of these‚ such as sugar‚ fat‚ starch‚ and protein‚ can be determined using tests such as Benedict’s solution‚ Lugol’s iodine solution‚ Biuret’s reagent‚ and Sudan III. Control tests were performed to determine what a positive result would appear like. Then the tests were performed

Molecule of life • Most molecules of living organisms are composed of thousands of atom. these molecules are considered macromolecules • Macromolecules are subdivided into polymers and monomers • polymers: are long chain-like substances made of many smaller molecules linked together by a covalent bond • monomers: smaller molecules covalently bonded which can link to make polymers • the molecules associated with living things are grouped into 4 major categories carbohydrates lipids (fats)

synthesis of PLA is a multistep process which starts from the production of lactic acid and ends with polymerisation‚ with an intermediate step for the formation of the lactide. There are two main monomers used; lactic acid and lactide. Synthesis of PLA can follow three main routes: 1) Lactic acid monomers are directly condensation polymerised to yield a brittle polymer‚ unless external coupling agents are attached to increase chain length. This needs to occur at less than 200℃ as the enzyme
