Adetutu Okupe Bio 3800 Dr. Poole December 4, 2015. Writing Assignment 4B Patient: Hello Doctor, my name is Keisha Cole. I have been having some flu like symptoms lately and really don’t understand this symptoms. Dr. Oz: Hello Keisha, I understand your frustration and I am here to help you understand what is actually going on in your body.
Photosynthesis/Scientific Method Worksheet 1. State and explain your pre-experience hypothesis: We were supposed to place (Elodea) in two tubes, which one should closer to a light source and the other with no light on it. The experience consisted in observe and count the amount of bubbles coming out from the plant in both tubes.
Elijah Brycth B. Jarlos IX-Argon 1. Multicellularity is a condition of an organism to have multicellular cells. An example of a organism who has multicellular cells are plants, animals, and humans. The main reason of why scientists have a hard time finding a good set of existing organisms to compare. Is neither the first set of organisms which is being compared is dying as fast as the second specimen is being examined or they just can’t find the right species.

2. Explain the functions of the respiratory system. Cite the definitions and the differences between external and internal respiration. The respiratory system is responsible for bow we intake air into our bodies and out.
Cell Respiration Lab Research Question What is the optimal temperature for germinating pea-seeds where the rate of respiration is the greatest? Background Information Cell Respiration refers to the biochemical process conducted by the cells of an organism that combines glucose and oxygen to produce energy in the form of ATP, along with two by-products, water and carbon dioxide. The equation representing this chemical reaction is shown below. C6H12O6 + 6 O2 6 CO2 + 6 H2O
Homeostasis is the tendency within every living organism to maintain balance of its internal conditions in order to survive. Some examples of what our body regulates is hydration level, oxygen level, body temperature, blood pressure, and pH balance. The process of maintaining homeostasis comes from two different feedback loops, which are positive and negative feedback loops. A positive feedback loop brings a even greater change in the same direction, when the body senses a change (Raven). A negative feedback loop acts against the change sensed by the body, in order to retain the regular internal condition (Raven).
he later called the Primary Respiratory Mechanism (PRM). In 1900, G.Sutherland then found the school of Cranial Osteopathy (Brooks, 2000). Sutherland then began to study in specific the bony articulations of the skull which he described as the “cranial bowl”, offering the premise that Articular mobility at the cranial base was attributed to the cartilaginous origin of the bones. The “interossous membrane” unites the cranial bones and the sacrum; therefore he believed that if any part of the system moved, all parts would synchronously move because of the fibrous link between the two. The Primary Respiratory mechanism comprises of the brain, cerebrospinal fluid, intracranial and intraspinal membranes, cranial bones, spinal cord and sacrum.
The Effect of Sugar Concentration on CO2 Production by Cellular Respiration in Yeast Introduction In this lab, our main focus was to find how sugar concentration affect yeast respiration rates. This was to simulate the process of cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is the process that cells use to transfer energy from the organic molecules in food to ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate). Glucose, CO2, and yeast (used as a catalyst in this experiment) are a few of the many vital components that contribute to cellular respiration.
Oxygen presence and availability will differentiate which type of cellular respiration will be used. In aerobic respiration it will involve the oxygen to produce energy needed for the cells to work in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This includes water and carbon dioxide being the by-products. However if oxygen is not present it will be anaerobic respiration, where the cells are still able to produce the energy that’s needed but a lot less amount.
“ When breath becomes air ” by Paul Kalanithi is not only just a book but is also Paul’s sorrow story. Paul Kalanithi wrote this story throughout the rough unstable time of his life. Kalanithi is a very strong man looking for a reason to continue and remain strong; although he feels that he lost everything. Paul realizes that his life has a lot of value. Paul also doesn’t let anything interfere with life no matter how difficult things get.
Respiration is a process that is needed to circulate air between our lungs and the external environment. The respiration process requires muscles and different mechanism in order for oxygen to reach out to the lungs. Two main mechanisms involved in the respiration process is the act of inspiration and expiration. Inspiration involves inhaling the flow of oxygen in to the lungs. Expiration involves exhaling carbon dioxide into the external environment.
Power in anaerobic conditions represents an expression of strength at speed (strength/speed = power) measured in Watts (W) (Draper and Marshall, 2014). Glycolysis is a 10-step process in which the breakdown/catabolism of glucose occurs to synthesize/produce ATP (Adenosine Tri phosphate) otherwise known as energy for the body. Glycolysis produces a lot of power and is the predominant energy system for maximal effort lasting between 30 seconds to 2 minutes (Karp, 2009). It has been estimated in a study by Baker, McCormick and Robergs (2010) that over a 30 second sprint glycolysis accounts for 49% of energy production, and over a 10 second sprint 44%. During a single short sprint (5-6 second) Glaister (2005) states that ATP is resynthesized from
A person with a high metabolic rate requires more energy intake than a person that has a lower metabolic rate, a person who is more active and performs strenuous activities requires more energy, the age of the person as adults require more energy than a child and elderlies require lesser energy than adults due to a sedentary lifestyle and lastly, state of health. A person may lack certain nutrients and vitamins or they need more due to certain health
Glucose, which is a six-carbon sugar, is at that moment divided into two molecules of a three carbon sugar. The breaking down of glucose, takes place in the cell’s cytoplasm. Glucose and oxygen are produced from this breakage, and are supplied to cells by the bloodstream. Also produced by glycolysis are, 2 molecules of ATP, 2 high energy electron carrying molecules of NADH, and 2 molecules of pyruvic acid. Glycolysis happens with or without the presence of oxygen.
