If 5 cuvettes containing spinach/DPIP solution are covered with different cups so that they absorb light of different wavelengths, then the cuvette with no filter will transmit the most orange light because it has been exposed to all white light and has the fastest rate of photosynthesis, followed by cuvettes under red cups, blue cups, green cups, and finally under the opaque cup because it has been exposed to no white light and has the slowest rate of photosynthesis. Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, which…

used in the calculation of the specific activity of SDH. Ultimately, the SDH assay provided the data to either support or negate the hypothesis about malonate’s effect on SDH activity. This procedure involved testing tubes containing: potassium phosphate buffer, azide (to block the electron transport chain), buffered sucrose, mitochondrial extract, DCPIP (to accept the electrons from FADH2), succinate (the substrate for SDH), and malonate. These tubes were tested against tubes lacking the…

credit goes to James Watson and Francis Crick. The Double Helix was founded by Rosalind Franklin. In the article The Francis Crick Papers: The Discovery of the Double Helix, 1951-1953 it states that, “Her evidence demonstrated that the two sugar-phosphate backbones lay on the outside of the molecule, confirmed Watson and Crick's conjecture that the backbones formed a double helix, and revealed to Crick that they were antiparallel.” The same article also says, “ Franklin's superb experimental…

The purpose of this laboratory experiment was to create a clear aqueous fertilizer that had a pH range of 6.0-7.0 with first three solid compounds the first day and then four solid compounds the second day. To complete this experiment, make calculations to find how much of each compound is needed in grams, use an analytical balance to measure out compounds accurately, mix the compounds in DI water until they are dissolved, test pH levels, effectively add acids or bases depending on pH level, and…

Sarah Gourgues BIO LAB 1130.036 December 1, 2016 They call me DJ Enzyme because I 'm always breaking it down Abstract: Although protein function is thought to depend on the dynamics of the molecule and its environment contribute to catalytic mechanisms. The increase and decrease of temperatures affected the rate of reaction. In nature, organisms adjust the conditions of their enzymes to produce an optimum rate of reaction, where necessary, may have enzymes which are adapted to function well…

a thin membrane made up of two-lipid bilayer. The soap detergent dissolves the lipid bilayer on the nucleus and cell membrane releasing DNA. NaCl is used to separate proteins from the DNA. Na= molecules are attracted to the negatively charged phosphate group PO3- causing them to bind together. This neutralizes the charge on the molecule making it less soluble in water. The solution was filtered using a coffee filter in order to separate the chromatin and protein molecules from other cellular…

order to address this serious issue, environmental groups and the government have tried to embark on awareness campaigns to ensure individuals understand how they might contribute to solving the issues. The general public has been encouraged to use phosphate free products in order to reduce their contribution to the problem. The Manitoba Government also acknowledged the issue with Lake Winnipeg and has begun implementing a three hundred and twenty million dollar plan over the next 5 years. The…

allying agent to some productions of metals. Calcium is also used for concrete and mortar for its fast set and dry time Torres 2 and it's ability to stay strong. Calcium carbonate is also put in some mineral supplements and toothpastes. Calcium phosphate is used in animal feed and fertilizers. Calcium has so many uses to where I could go on and on about its uses for hours but for the sake of time these examples will have to do. As you can see calcium is very helpful in the industrial…

Introduction Moreton Bay consists of its rich wildlife population and diverse waterways that extends right from Deception Bay and Moreton Island, to the entry of the Gold Coast seaways. Within the catchment area includes the many suburbs of the Brisbane River, which are amongst the most environmentally impacting and influential waterways to Moreton Bay () More specifically, Wynnum creek catchment can be described as a small costal waterway comprising of open public space, rural residential,…

into Lake Erie. The Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement was also introduced in 1972, it was placed in order to lower the amount of pollutants in the Great Lakes. “The United States and Canadian governments responded by capping household detergent phosphates, reining in factory pollutants and spending $8 billion to upgrade lakeside sewage plants.” (Wines) Some effects of the cleanup of Lake Erie are that Lake Erie became the Walleye Capital of the World. Lake Erie also became a popular place…
