Experiment to test level of carbon dioxide in water

synthesis of ATP. The latter occurs in the stroma, and results in carbon dioxide fixation. In this experiment, only the light-dependent reactions were studied. 2,6-dichlorophenol-indophenol (DCPIP) was used as an artificial electron acceptor in order to determine the rate of the light reactions by observing the disappearance of its blue color in the reaction that follows: DCPIP (blue) + 2e- + 2H+ → DCPIPH2 (colorless) In one experiment, ammonia, which is added in the form of ammonium…

of this experiment was that various carbohydrates have different rates of respiration by a yeast culture raised on glucose. The differences in time for respiration to peak for the other sugars were due to enzyme regulation called induction. This is the time required for the glucose fed yeast culture to alter its enzymatic machinery to process sugars other than glucose for oxidative respiration. The different rates of respiration for each sugar was measured by the rate of carbon dioxide (CO2)…

When sea levels and temperatures rise as a result of climate change, how will plants react? In this experiment, the growth of Wisconsin Fast Plants (WFPs) will be tested when temperature and waterlogging are added to twelve WFP chambers. The question that will be attempted to answer is: How do factors of climate change—water and temperature stress—affect the growth of WFPs? Waterlogging is the act of adding too much water and temperature stress is extreme temperatures. This question is being…

The pre-World War Two era began in 1789 when the German chemist Martin Klaproth discovered a new element “Uranium”, naming it after the planet Uranus. Then about a century later, in 1895, Wilhelm Rontgen performed experiments by running electric current through a glass tube acting like a vacuum and produced X-rays, thereby discovering the existence of ionizing radiation. The next year, in 1896, Henri Becquerel discovered that an ore “Pitchblende”, which contained Radium…

aid even for millions of years. That is not something we possibly can say for oil, coal, petroleum, and different fossil fuels that humans have been dependent on for thousands of years. If people need to save the earth from raising carbon-emission gases, pollutants of water, and even global warming, they ought to change the electricity sources they use at present. Seeking more alternative power resources can preserve the surroundings we are residing in, and significantly decrease our electric…

environment. The curiosity rover is the size of a small SUV and has a “host of scientific experiments to zap, analyze and take pictures of any rock within reach of its 7-foot arm” (SPACE C). It was designed to go over obstacles and travel a long distance per day. The curiosity rover gets its power from a radioisotope thermoelectric generator (SPACE C). The rover uses different tools to check for habitability. One tool is a test that is done that the ground gets blasted with neutrons and when…

candles in the bowl. Carefully observe the base of the container, the water level in the container, and the flames. Record your observations. Remove the jar from the bowl. Then remove 3 to 4 candles to the clay for a total of 1 to 2 candles. Light the candles in the bowl. While the candles are still burning, place the pint size mason jar over the candles in the bowl. Carefully observe the base of the container, the water level in the container, and the flames. Record your observations. Remove…

Power is the Future Since the 1960’s humans have been trying to solve the puzzle of providing energy to all people cheaply, efficiently, and with minimum harmful effects to the environment. In the words of Franklin D. Roosevelt, “The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much it is whether we provide enough for those who have little.” (brainyquote.com), the solution to providing affordable, clean electricity to all of humanity lies in…

studied about its mechanical properties and physiological performance. It is expected to have application in restoring cartilage and controllable delivery of Epirubicin Background of research Hydrogels have crosslinked microstructure and can swell up in water without resolving. Their soft and rubbery nature minimizes inflammatory reactions of the surrounding cells, and have a good prospect in biomedical applications such as clinic repair material or studying interaction between implanted…

handle. It provides good lubricating properties which reduces component wear and enhances engine life. The physical wear of various vital parts and carbon deposits were found to be substantially lower in the case of biodiesel fuelled diesel engine [11]. Biodiesel has higher oxygen content than petroleum diesel and it shows great reductions in carbon, emission of particulate matter, monoxide, polyaromatics,…
