Enzyme Lab Worksheet

Enzyme Lab Worksheet


Hypothesis:


Independent Variable:

The liquid grass

Dependent Variable:

The solution that was mixed with the glass

Controlled Variables:

Water with the grass solution.

Justification of hypothesis:

If hydrogen peroxide and a buffer solution of pH 8  are mixed in with different test tubes of liquid grass then the hydrogen peroxide with cause more enzymic reactions.
Why did you choose this as your hypothesis?
The reactions that will occur in the mix of the two solutions will form oxygen or water.  Hydrogen peroxide’s chemical formula is H2O2.  The amount of oxygen and hydrogen that hydrogen peroxide has will create more reaction opportunities.

Materials (Your Team’s Experiment):



Done by William Mahnke, Ben Buran, Chase Lyles, and Addison Akery

Procedure:  Pour the liquid grass into a test tube and mix it with one of the three solutions.


Summary:Want to see what mix of liquid grass and solution will create the most bubbles.


Detailed Steps:  Do each solution twice.


Data and Results:

(This section should include at least one graph!)

Conclusions:  Hydrogen peroxide when mixed with the grass solution had more enzymic reactions than the buffer solution of pH 8 and the water.

Student Blog Post Assignment #4

1.  Some abiotic factors that our plants depends for survival are the climate, which is the weather and temperature, the soil, and the amount of sunlight the plant receives.  For weather, if it's very hot and dry, the plant would have a hard time surviving because of lack of water.  And for temperature, colder temperatures that are too hot or too cold could harm the functions of the plants.  Some biotic factors that affects the plant are competition with other plants, maybe some herbivores that could eat the plants, or worms that could benefit the plant. 2.  We know a plant is engaged inn competition because the plant is surrounded by other plants that share a similar niche, or job.  If two plants have the same niche, then they have to compete for resources like water and energy in order to complete their job.  In our situation, our plants competing with other plants in the same flower bed in the garden.  They're competing for water, sunlight, a...

Anthers and Stigmas and Styles, Oh My by Chase Lyles

Image
The way that plants and animals sexually reproduce are very similar. In both instances the female and the male provide one gamete that contain genetic materials for the offspring. This is an image of  the male reproductive system, the Stamen. The Stamen produces pollen which in some ways is similar to sperm for animals. This is an image of the female reproductive system known as the carpel or pistil. When some pollen lands on this,  it will create a tube that connects the ovaries to the ovules. Because of this genetic information is able to get from the pollen ad into the ovaries so, this will create an embryo  that will become a seed.

Nathan Marcus Story of the Seed

For the final story of the seed post of this year, I chose to interview Nathan Marcus about his journey throughout Mr Bursch's honors biology class. I wanted to know about some of his important experiences through his story of the seed project. First of all, Nate learned that kale can sort of grow upside down, but not really. Nate was very surprised by how big kale grows as well!  During his time growing the kale in the garden, he learned how  kale and the environment could interact together. Nate still laughs today about how funny his group was and the great jokes they made together while planting the seeds. As Nate reflects back today, he never would imagine how fast kale can grow and how difficult it is to grow a plant upside down. Overall Nate would do this project again because of all the memorable experiences he had during it. i like to play webkinz
