Sucrose is used to sweeten foods, and provide short term energy. In sodas such as the orange soda and clear soda used during this lab, the sugar is used to sweeten the drink. Density can be used in order to find the sugar concentration in a particular solution. Density is known as the amount of mass that will fit into a certain volume. For this lab, the density of water will be 1 gram/cubic centimeter.
Some existing knowledge is that when all of the solutions are mixed together in the test tube they will separate into three layers one consisting of the strawberry puree (lysis solution), another is the DNA precipitate, and the last is the actual DNA. (“How to Extract DNA from Strawberries”). The prediction is that the DNA will look like twisted strands of string when looked at under a microscope. Materials and Methods There were many steps taken to perform this experiment. The materials used were: * Strawberry * Plastic Bag * Cell Lysis Solution * DNA Precipitate Solution (Cold) * Test Tubes * Graduated Cups and Cylinder * Funnel * Coffee Filter * Wood Splint * Slide and Coverslip * Microscope The Plastic bags were filled with strawberries.
It is involved in breaking down a simple sugar called fructose. This is mostly found in fruits and can be used in the body for energy. Aldolase B is responsible in the second step of the metabolism of fructose. At this stage, the enzyme will break down the molecule fructose-1-phosphate into DHAP (dihydrozyacteone phosphate) and glyceraldehyde. Without aldolase B, this cannot be done (Hudon-Miller, 2012c) Mitochondrial Disease Cori Cycle If the amount of energy available to a cell would remain in that single cell during a Cori cycle, there would not be enough energy to convert the lactate back to glucose.
With the equipment and ingredients, you’re ready to prepare. Steps: I am going to show you how easy it is to prepare this appetizer. The first thing you do is wash out the bowl if you like. Then, you beat the marshmellows and cream cheese together with the blender/mixer on low speed. After the ingredients have been whipped together well, you can put it in a container or plate with the table spoon.
Experiment 11 Lab Assignment Answer Sheet: Chromatography of Food Dyes Name: Pre-Lab: Define the Rf value of a compound The "rf" value is the distance the compound moves relative to the distance the solvent moves. Data and Observations: Record the distance travelled by the sample and the solvent in the table below and calculate the Rf values. Table 1.

P2: Describe the characteristics of nutrients and their benefit to the body. Answer: Characteristics of nutrients and their benefit to the body are carbohydrates, starch and non-starch polysaccharides, sugar substitutes and sugar. Carbohydrates are one of the main types of food. Sugar and starch are main types of carbohydrates these carbohydrates provide energy for the body. Liver breaks down carbohydrates into glucose which the body uses for sugar.
What is your intended major? Discuss how your interest in the subject developed and describe any experience you have had in the field — such as volunteer work, internships and employment, participation in student organizations and activities — and what you have gained from your involvement. My new life started six and a half years ago when I first stepped into the United States, a country of immense opportunities. My intended major is chemistry, which is a subject I’ve had a lot of interest in since the 7th grade when I first studied Chemistry in the Punjabi language for a year. Therefore, I was well-prepared with chemistry knowledge before beginning my academic career as a sophomore in high school.
Brendan Dennis 2/24/13 CP Biology Enzymes Used vs. Amount of Apple Juice Produced Lab Report Title: Enzymes Used vs. Amount of Apple Juice Produced Problem: How does a change in the enzymes used affect the amount of apple juice produced? Hypothesis: If different enzymes, such as pectinase and cellulase, are used to break down apple sauce, then the most apple juice will be produced when 5 drops of both pectinase and cellulase are used in one mixture because the two enzymes will be working together to break down the apple juice. Procedure: 1.
Today, HFCS can be found in just about every food product that you can think of. As a sugar substitute, it has made its way into crackers, yogurt, baked goods, dressings, dairy products and of course soft drinks (Child Health). The result, a major concern
Maple Syrup Urine In order for the body to use protein from the food we eat, it is broken down into smaller parts called amino acids. Special enzymes then make changes to the amino acids so the body can use them. Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is a metabolism disorder passed down through families in which the body cannot break down certain parts of proteins. Urine in people with this condition can smell like maple syrup. MSUD is a potentially deadly disorder that affects the way the body breaks down three amino acids, leucine, isoleucine, and valine.
