Cell membranes are a bilayer make up of phospholipids‚ proteins‚ and cholesterol. Its main function is to regulate what comes in and out of the cell by means of diffusion‚ transport proteins and protein channels. Trans membrane proteins transport polar solutes across hydrophobic regions of the bilayer. Diffusion occurs when solutes are transferred from a high concentration of that solute to a lower concentration of solutes. Solutes do not depend on the concentration of other solutes‚ which allows

Yeast Population Dynamics Lab How Environmental Factors Affect a Yeast Population’s Ability to Reproduce OBJECTIVE The objective of this experiment is to emphasize the influence that limiting factors have on a population. This lab tests yeast‚ a common component in baking‚ against two environmental factors (changes in temperature or concentration) to see what effect these have on the population dynamics of the yeast over a period of 72 hours. There are two sections of tests included in this

hypotheses based on predictions questions. First‚ yeast will metabolize sugar and produce a gas. This is because yeast is a living organism and all living organisms like yeast must use energy (such as sugar) to obtain energy. Yeast will metabolize sugar and gives off carbon dioxide as a by-product. For the second hypothesis‚ we were expecting that yeast will produce a gas when sugar is available. For the third hypothesis‚ we did not expect yeast to produce a gas when no sugar or other food is available

In this lab my group and I tested to see how yeast would react to different substances. Yeast is a fungi that releases carbon dioxide which can be used in the process of bread making. During this lab we used sugar‚ warm water‚ cornstarch‚ yeast‚ a gas sensor‚ plastic cylinders‚ and a laptop. The process of this lab was to create cellular respiration‚ which is what cells do to break up sugars into a form that the cell can use as energy. When yeast and a certain substance were combined‚ this substance

The Effect of Temperature on the Rate of Yeast Respiration Abstract Carbon dioxide is a waste product of yeast respiration. A series of experiment was conducted to answer the question; does temperature have an effect on yeast respiration? If the amount of carbon dioxide is directly related to temperature‚ then varying degrees of temperature will result in different rates of respiration in yeast. The experiment will be tested using yeast and sugar at different water temperatures. I

Effects of Molasses Concentration on Yeast Fermentation The purpose of this lab was to determine how yeast cells are affected by the concentration of a food source‚ and for our purposes‚ the food sources were corn syrup and molasses. Our hypothesis was that the yeast cells would ferment the most when there was a higher concentration of molasses/corn syrup. In order to test this‚ we created 10 test tubes with decreasing concentrations of molasses/corn syrup using a serial dilution. Each test

Title: Respiration-Fermentation in Yeast Aim: To study the different of solution affect the gas forms during fermentation in yeast. Procedure: Refer to Lab manual Result: Questions: 1. Yes. 2. Sucrose. 3. When no oxygen the ATP will be produce. 4. Brewery. 5. Aerobic glucose and aerobic glucose oxygen. 6. CO2 and aerobic water. 7. CO2 and aerobic ethanol. Conclusion: The purpose of this experiment is to determine sucrose gas form during fermentation with yeast is the most CO2
