CORE ONE: MAINTAINING A BALANCE • IDENTIFY THE ROLE OF ENZYMES IN METABOLISM‚ DESCRIBE THEIR CHEMICAL COMPOSITION AND USE A SIMPLE MODEL TO DEMOSTRATE THEIR SPECIFITY ON SUBSTRATES. Enzymes are biological catalysts this means that they lower the energy required to start a chemical reaction within a cell but don’t get used up by that reaction. Every reaction and process in the metabolism of the cell is controlled by a specific enzyme. Enzymes are globular proteins whose shapes are specialised

What Is Cellular Respiration and What Influences It’s Function? BSC 2010L 06/19/2013 Abstract: Eating is a basic essential of life that most people don’t pay much mind till they’re hungry. Eating is essential and very important for various reasons but one of the main reasons is for energy. Our bodies use a term called cellular respiration which is the process by which chemical energy of food is released and partially captured in the form of ATP or energy. Throughout the experiment

In order to fly‚ butterflies need to regulate their body temperatures through thermoregulation. There are two types of ways to regulate body temperature. The first one is ectothermy. Ectothermic animals‚ or cold-blooded animals‚ rely on outside sources to heat or cool themselves. Cold-blooded animals can lie under the hot sun to heat themselves up and prepare for flight or to move around. However‚ if there is no source of heat‚ they are not able to raise their body temperature to the correct level

So‚ this means that when the body shivers‚ that is homeostasis taking place trying to keep your body temperature at a constant degree. Homeostasis maintains normality in the body in many different ways. Some examples include osmoregulation‚ thermoregulation‚ chemical regulation‚ and behavioral homeostasis. While homeostasis controls these processes‚ homeostasis must also go through a separate process of its own in order for things like osmoregulation to be carried out. These “inner processes” are

Blue Tongue Lizard Ectotherms are “cold-blooded” animals such as reptiles‚ amphibians‚ insects‚ fish and worm. These animals rely on the outside environment for their body heat as they do not generate heat internally like a mammal or bird. Ectotherms have a variety of adaptations‚ many of them behavioural‚ to regulate their body temperature and keep it within the range in which they can be active; 10-30oC The Tiliqua or more commonly known as the blue-tongue lizard or just Blue tongue is the largest

Effect of Temperature on Cricket Respiration Crickets are ectotherms that rely on their environment as a source of heat for their metabolism. Warmer temperatures allow crickets to respire at a greater rate.
