evolved than MgSO₄. In the second set-up‚ six Smith fermentation tubes were used each containing different 15mL solution (starch‚ lactose‚ sucrose‚ glucose‚ fructose or distilled H₂O). the tubes were then added with 15 mL distilled H2O and 15 mL 10% yeast suspension. Here‚ results show that fructose had the highest rate of respiration followed by glucose‚ sucrose‚ lactose‚ starch and H₂O. Thus‚ simpler substrate would mean higher rate of respiration. INTRODUCTION We all need life to survive. Life

You just reviewed type of carbohydrates. Glucose is a simple sugar called a monosaccharide ‚ whereas starch contains compound carbon chains and is a polysaccharide . 5. Polysaccharides are formed by a dehydration synthesis reaction between monosaccharides. What does this mean? Water molecules are removed from the bond. 6. For each of the following tests‚ please circle which substance would give a positive result: a. Benedict’s test - glucose tap water oil (lipid)) starch

We live in a toxic environment. Much of what we consume is simply not good for our bodies-it builds up and eventually damages our health. Antioxidant vitamins-vitamins C and E‚ and beta carotene-may be what we need to "clean up" our systems. Excess sugar in the bloodstream can have very serious side effects. The extra sugar impedes blood flow‚ causing wounds to heal more slowly and infections to become more virulent. Just how this excess sugar causes damage remains a topic of debate. One plausible

The Laffer curve‚ named after the economist Arthur Laffer‚ is a curve that demonstrates the trade-off between tax-rates and tax-revenues (Wanniski 1978). It is used to illustrate the concept of taxable income elasticity‚ the idea that a government can maximise the revenue by setting the tax rates at an optimum point. This curve can be traced back as far as 1844 to a French economist Jules Dupit who in 1844 found similar effects as Laffer did (Laffer 2004). Dupit also saw tax revenues rising from

The demand curve is the graph depicting the relationship between the price of a certain commodity and the amount of it that consumers are willing and able to purchase at that given price. It is a graphic representation of a demand schedule. The demand curve for all consumers together follows from the demand curve of every
