Equilibrium

We expect the genetic frequency of “A” and “a” to be constant based on Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium. However, from the table I and graph of genetic drift, we find f(A) is increasing in the offspring and f(a) is decreasing in the offspring. We find small population size violates the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium rule. Table I and graph of genetic drift also bring into question whether the genetic drift would end up with an extinction or fixation of genes. This is further explained in the Table II…

were destroyed. Also, as society gotten more advanced in technology, books lost their value. There wasn't a need for them because the were too long so they we're made simplier, shorter, less conflicting, and barely a book at all. In the film Equilibrium, the protangnist is John Preston. He is a warrior and enforcement that is supposed to burn all objects that kill bring…

Explain what is meant by an equilibrium exchange rate. The equilibrium exchange rate is commonly defined as the currency rate of exchange where both the currencies being supplied is equal to the demand for it (Economics Online, 2014). According to Glossary of Statistical term (2002), the equilibrium exchange rate that is equal to currency’s purchasing power parity. It is determined differently using different monetary standards. The equilibrium exchange rate can be stable in addition to being…

3. Jesper Juul View-Causal Revolution Jesper is a game scholar in game studies. He is a renowned author of the books Half-Real, Casual Revolution and The Art of Failure (Jones, 2008). We will slightly discuss the book casual Revolution which explains the various evolution in the video games by focusing on both hardcore players and casual players. Hardcore players refer to individuals engage in a game for long hours to create experience while casual players refer to those who engage in a game for…

Introduction: All organisms depend on the action of enzymes to carry out the reactions of life. According to the text in Campbell Biology, enzymes are biological catalysts. These globular proteins speed the rate at which metabolic processes occur by lowering the activation energy or the energy barrier required to transform reactants to products. Each enzyme is specific, each containing active sites destined for a substrate. Substrates are the reactants or starting materials of chemical…

Enzymes are a biological catalyst. When a chemical reaction is taking place the enzyme works to lower the activation energy of a reaction. The activation energy is, the amount of energy that is required in order for a reaction to take place. Enzymes bind to reactant molecules. The enzymes hold these molecules in a way that makes the processes of the chemical bond-breaking and bond-forming take place more readily. A reaction can be either energy-releasing or energy-absorbing. Enzymes have no…

A chemical reaction’s rate is described by the amount of product formed. Substances that increase that rate are called catalysts. Catalysts are often proteins called enzymes. Enzymes change the pathway of the reaction between the products and the product. However, enzymes don’t alter the starting or ending points. Enzymes are effective by reducing the activation energy. The enzyme tyrosinase is located in melanocytes. These are cells that produce the pigment melanin. Melanin gives skin, eyes,…

The role of enzymes play a large role in the survival of organisms through catalysis of reactions that keep them alive and functioning. The purpose of this experiment was to measure reaction activity over time and how substrate concentration affects their activity level. A supernatant was made through the dilution of blended potato extract. Then the supernatant was mixed with catechol and the reaction rate was measured in units of absorbance through a spectrophotometer every 30 seconds for ten…

Reservoir Systems consist of a hollow inner core and a polymer membrane, there to control the rate of drug diffusion. Drug diffusion across the membrane is rate limited and controls general drug release rate (Bajpai et al. 2008). For reservoir systems drug release normally remains steady resulting in a zero order profile (Raval, Parikh and Engineer, 2010). Another technology is called the Multiparticulate drug delivery system which consists of microencapsulated granules/beads containing drug…

Introduction Enzymes are specialized proteins that act as catalysts. Enzymes are a key part of many biological processes because they are capable of lowering the activation energy of a chemical reaction. By lowering the activation energy enzymes are able to speed up reactions allowing for multiple chemical processes to occur at a faster rate in many living organisms. Enzymes work by binding to specific molecules called substrates. The enzyme observed in this experiment was amylase and its…
