Sugarcane is one of the world’s major food-producing C4 crops‚ providing about 75 % of sugar produced in the world for human consumption (Souza et al. 2008). World sugarcane production is close to 1.9 billion tonnes per annum and is concentrated in tropical regions‚ particularly developing nations in Latin America‚ Africa and Asia. India is the second largest producer of sugar after Brazil with a global share of 17% in 2014-15. Over five million farmers are involved in the cultivation of sugarcane

Biology coursework: Substrate specificity in yeast AIM: To find out which substrate (glucose‚ starch‚ maltose‚ sucrose or lactose)‚ does yeast‚ the organism containing the enzyme‚ breaks down the quickest. Introduction: Usually‚ every enzyme has a specific substrate that is what we call the “lock and key” theory. We can try the reaction of an enzyme with different substrates and this enzyme will just work well with one of those substrates. One type of reaction catalyzed by enzymes is anaerobic respiration

serve to anchor the tree and extract moisture and nutrients from the soil. Above ground‚ the branches divide into smaller branches and shoots. The shoots typically bear leaves‚ which capture light energy and convert it into chemical energy by photosynthesis‚ providing the food needed by the tree for its growth and development. Flowers and fruit may also be present‚ but some trees such as conifers instead have pollen cones and seed cones‚ and others such as tree ferns produce spores instead.

INTRODUCTION: OCCURANCE OF CHROMIUM: Chromium is a heavy metal which is considered as an environmental pollutant (Nafish et al‚ .2012). It is 7th most occurring element on earth and its average concentration in the earth is about 100mg/kg. (Panda and Choudhory‚ .2005). Apart from its importance chromium causing serious hazards for those organisms and plants that are exposed to the chromium in polluted areas of high concentrations. Being highly toxic metal it mainly comes from leather tanning‚ textile

Carbon‚ Phosphorus‚ and Nitrogen Cycles By: Amy Gentry There are three importation cycles that the environment. The three cycles are carbon‚ phosphorus and nitrogen cycles. These cycles are part of photosynthesis. These are a chain that keeps everything going in the word. These cycles keep animal alive and plants and people breathing. Carbon cycle is an Importation one of the cycle on earth. You get carbon atoms from co2 then become carbon atoms of the organic molecules are making up the plant

Introduction: Lycopene is a carotene because of its carbon and hydrogen composition. It is red in color and a member of the carotenoid family. Members of the carotenoid family play integral roles in plants. They use the absorption of light to aid in photosynthesis‚ and protect chlorophyll from damage. In humans‚ Lycopene acts as an antioxidant. Lycopene is found in various fruits and vegetables. The purpose of this experiment is the isolation of Lycopene from tomato paste. This is done using liquid/solid
