    of all pH levels they were all consistent numbers. Also, when the pH is acidic there will be very little oxygen produced, when the pH is neutral it will have the highest enzyme activity and when its basic it will start to produce less oxygen again. Each pH level had different concentrations, pH 4.8 which was the most acidic produced 2, 1 and 2mls of foam. pH 5.3 which is slightly acidic produced 2, 4 & 2mls of foam. pH 7.4 which is close to neutral produced 30, 32 and 30mls of foam and pH 8.7…

    Normal pH within the blood can range between 7.35 and 7.45 arterial and venous is 7.32 thru 7.42. Normal HCO3 for arterial is 22 thru 26 mEq/liter and venous is 19 to 25 mEq/liter with PCO2 normal for arterial 35 thru 45 mm Hg and venous 38 thru 52 mm Hg. Normal PO2 is 80 to 100mm Hg for arterial and venous is 28 thru 48 mm Hg. Acidosis can affect the central nervous system within the body and left untreated can lead to death. Alkalosis affects the central nervous system which can cause muscle…

    body’s pH balance in check is always important this because proper body function can happen and we remain healthy. If your blood pH were to drop below 7.35 you would develop a condition called acidosis. Then depending on the cause of this acidosis whether it be the kidneys or the lungs would determine the kind of acidosis. If it is the kidneys causing the acidosis we would call it a metabolic acidosis, where is if it were the lungs it would be called a respiratory acidosis. Know if your blood pH…

    Discussion The research question of this paper asks: How is the pH of one’s mouth after a constant meal affected by the different sugar levels of various chewing gums. The chosen hypothesis was wrong for both the minty and sweet gums as it stated that their pH would be ultimately be acidic and there’d be a reduction form the initial pH. However, only one chewing gum had a significant decrease in its pH; the other pH values increased and either became alkaline or less acidic. There were several…

    of corn oil was found to be 0.928 g/cm3 (Hodgman 1924). From these evidences, water shows that it has the highest density among three liquid. Overall, this experiment supported our hypothesis. Water was found to have good solvent abilities, neutral PH, high heat capacity, high surface tension; water was also found to be cohesive, adhesive, and denser. Some of these properties were not found on corn oil and ethanol, so it was supported that water is different from other…

    soil into lakes and streams. This mix makes waters lethal to crawfish, shellfishes, and other aquatic creatures. It creates an atmosphere that threatens the survival of aquatic life. Arthropods and fish die in water that has a pH level less than five. Water with a low pH level causes gill damage in fish and death to fish embryos. With a level of five, most fish eggs cannot hatch. The effects of freshwater acidification as carbon source changes from carbonate (HCO3) to carbon dioxide (CO2),…

    Fluid regulation is very vital to homeostasis. If electrolyte levels rise or fall beyond normal limits, many bodily functions will eventually fail to progress at their normal degrees. Maintaining normal pH levels is also important for normal body functioning mainly because small alterations in pH can make up important changes in our metabolism. Electrolytes are minerals which mean that they carry ions and salts in our body that have an electric charge. They can be found in our urine, blood…

    Conditions like temperature and pH most prominently affect an enzyme’s functionality. Generally, at a temperature of 37.5 °C enzyme’s will reach its highest point of catalytic activity; although the temperature can vary depending on the organism the enzyme resides in4. While different enzymes have different optimum pH’s, an extremely high or low pH will often denature an enzyme. Amylase is a frequently extracted enzyme from bacteria, fungi, and yeast2. Amylase has an optimal pH of 12 and…

    Effect That pH Has on It Abstract - The purpose of this experiment was to determine what variables affect the rate of photosynthesis. The variable tested was the pH level of the “environment” and this was tested using leaf discs from a plant. By testing the leaf discs in different pH levels of two, four, six, eight, and ten, it was found that the rate of photosynthesis was at its highest in a pH of six. It was also found that the rate of photosynthesis was at its second highest at a pH of…
