    Taxol’s Effect on Rates of Tip Growth and Nuclei Position in Neurospora Crassa

    ABSTRACT The purpose of the study was to detect the rates of hyphal tip growth and nuclei position of N. crassa in influence of drug medium, Taxol. The results of the experiments show that the rate of hyphal tip growth and nuclei position are much lower in drug medium than in the control. Taxol have different effect on growth of tip and distance travelled by nuclei. Moreover, the rate at which the nuclei displace and growth of the tips are dependent on the medium and not on each other. Thus, the

    Glycerinated Muscles Lab Report

    Using ATP To Contract Glycerinated Muscle Introduction Muscles are a fibrous bundle of tissues that contract to produce movement in the body. There are three different types of muscles, cardiac, skeletal, and smooth. Though these three different types of muscles serve slightly different purposes, they function very similarly. The main components of muscles are muscle fibers, myosin, actin, and a few more. Muscle contractions works primary off of the interaction between the proteins, actin and myosin

    The Effect of Enzymes on Hydrogen Peroxide Decomposition

    What is the function of enzymes in a living system? Enzymes speed up metabolic reactions necessary for life. Without them certain vital processes would not take place and the body would be unable to function. Difference enzymes work better under different conditions. Where in a human body might it be beneficial to have enzymes work in very acidic environments? In areas, like the stomach, that have a pH of two would benefit by having enzymes that function well in acidic environments. An example

    Effect of Molecular Weight on the Rate of Diffusion

    2015-2016 ABSTRACT The relationship of molecular weight and rate of diffusion was determined using three colored substances with different molecular weights, namely Potassium permanganate, Potassium dichromate and Methylene Blue. A water-agar gel in a petri dish was used to be able to observe the movement of the particles of each substance. Potassium dichromate had the fastest rate of diffusion among the three substances. Thus, the smaller the molecular weight, the faster the rate of diffusion. INTRODUCTION
