Cheyne-Stokes respiration

Introduction: Cellular Respiration is the process of oxidizing food molecules, like glucose, to carbon dioxide and water. The energy released is trapped in the form of ATP for use by all the energy-consuming activities of the cell. This occurs in three phases: glycolysis, the Kreb’s cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. When measuring consumption of oxygen during the oxidation of glucose, respirometers are used. Respirometers are devices that measure these types of gas volume changes, and…

The purpose of this lab was to hypothesize about cellular energetics and measuring the rates of respiration and photosynthesis, explain what cellular respiration and its aspects such as glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain then how each process is involved in producing ATP and why fermentation occurs. This lab had two parts to the experiment. Experiment A analyzed cellular respiration by measuring the production carbon dioxide with various forms of sugar. Experiment B examined…

Respiration and Excretion In this lab we tested to see if respiration was a form of excretion. We were testing for the excretion of salt and water. When testing for the excretion of water, we placed a test strip in our palms/hands and closed them to a fist for 1-2 minutes. We then took a blue test strip of silver nitrate and placed it into a zip lock bag for our control. We would also take to additional blue strips and place one into a zip lock bag and begin respiration process of exhaling…

functioning of the carbon cycle are photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Photosynthesis is the metabolic pathway that takes raw materials and converts it to sugar. Photosynthesis takes place in the leaves, specifically in the chloroplasts of the cells of plants. Photosynthesis also occurs in plants, green protista, and prokaryotes. There are two phases in photosynthesis, the light dependent and the light independent reactions. Cellular respiration is the metabolic pathway that converts…

variety A 22 C (2.4-0)/ (60-0) = .04 test variety A 8 C (.45-0)/ (60-0) = .0075 b. Metabolism is the breakdown of foods to provide energy for the body. Breaking down the foods use cellular respiration which requires glucose and oxygen and produces carbon dioxide. The faster the metabolism, the more cellular respiration will occur which causes an increase in oxygen to be consumed. The effect of temperature will cause an increase on metabolic rate till a certain point where then the cell will…

Sodium Azide There is perhaps not a lot known about this chemical and what it can do to/for people. One important aspect is to know what the chemical is made of, doing so will give someone a general look into its makeup. Secondly, “What is something we use this chemical for in everyday life”. Lastly, “How does this affect our cell breathing process?” From these topics, one can gather a general sense of what this substance does and whether or not it should be strayed away from. Of course it…

There are huge gaps in the history of running but it appears throughout the courses of the years. In the past people ran while hunting for food, but with time running became a form of training, sport, and a hobby. Running may seem simple, but there is a lot more going on than you think. Long distance runners, run for long periods of time focusing on endurance which uses the long-term energy system. While sprinters run 10-15 seconds at full speed, focusing on speed using the immediate energy…

Demonstration of Cellular Respiration Inside Lima Beans Cells in Vitro Purpose: Cellular respiration is a series of metabolic reactions that take place in the mitochondria and produce chemical energy in the form of ATP by the breakdown of food molecules.There are three processes involved in cellular respiration; glycolysis, the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain. During this processes, glucose is oxidized by a series of redox reactions and its electrons and hydrogen ions are donated…

The laws of heredity discovered by G. Mendel are similar for all complex life creatures and he concluded that genes come in pairs one from each parent inherited as distinct units. Also, the mathematical patterns of inheritance as well as genes segregation and their appearance in the offspring as dominant or recessive traits were determined during his genetic experiments with pea plants and outlined three laws oh inheritance. First, the Law of Dominance is expressed where one allele dominates…

Title: Importance of photosynthesis in agriculture. Introduction: photosynthesis is the process by which plants and some bacteria convert energy from the sun into food or chemical energy, This is how plants survive. This is the chemical reaction that takes place inside the leaf of a plant. This is what makes plants green and healthy.Photosynthesis has a vital role in agriculture. It allows crops to turn energy from the sun into a food source it helps the growth of the crop. It provides…
