Thus, the metabolically active fraction of vitamin B12 is the vitamin B12 that is associated with TC, holotranscobalamin (holoTC). The much larger fraction of vitamin B12 carried by haptocorrin (HC) is considered metabolically inert because no cellular receptors exist, except on the liver. Active B12 contains the biologically available cobalamin because only transcobalamin-bound B12 promotes the uptake of the cobalamin by all cells via specific receptors.
This disproved my hypothesis as I thought that the Powerade would contain the most
Gatorade Vs. Powerade Gatorade and Powerade are both energy drinks made to do the same thing supply athletes with more electrolytes. Gatorade is the original sports drink made first in 1965 while Powerade was later made just to rival Gatorade in 1988. For many other reasons than just being original Gatorade is better than Powerade. Let’s get into more depth about the two now.
Did you know that Gatorade and other sports drinks contain electrolytes that can be used in a battery solution? These electrolytes are the same ones that replenish your body after exercise. Gatorade and other drinks have different electrolyte activity rates. That makes the battery either more or less powerful. A battery can be made with more electrolyte containing materials than you think.
The stomata are the most critical piece to this process, as this is where CO2 enters and can be stored, and where water and O2 exit. Cellular respiration also known as oxidative metabolism is important to convert biochemical energy from nutrients in the cells of living organisms to useful energy known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Without cellular respiration living organisms would not be able to sustain life. This process is done by cells exchanging gases within its surroundings to create adenosine triphosphate commonly known as ADT, which is used by the cells as a source of energy. This process is done through numerous reactions; an example is metabolic pathway.
Research Question: To investigate and compare how different temperature (5℃, 15℃, 25℃, 35℃, 45℃) can affect the concentration of carbon dioxide in soda water through titration with sodium hydroxide solution. Introduction: Carbon dioxide plays an important role in soft drinks. Soda water is manufactured by pumping carbon dioxide into water under high pressure. Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is the fizz we find in soft drinks. CO2 + H2O ⇌
When we’re finding out something that shakes us and makes us upset we look for others to support us through these feelings. Sometimes when we share something terrible, we get a sympathetic response making us feel even worse. Even when we don’t know people in the streets on the cold December night we feel for them when the icy air blows by. To understand the lack of compassion for someone in pain is difficult, not thinking about how that would feel if it was us. However, in Reading the Holocaust we get multiple stories of the survivors experience and how they dealt with surviving the horrible camps in a nonfiction novel by Inga Clendinnen.
Mika Nijhawan 9/29- 10/10 2 MENTOS AND SODA LAB REPORT State the Problem Does the type of soda affect the size of the explosion, after mentos are added? Develop a Hypothesis If seven mentos to a 2L bottle of Diet Pepsi, then it will create the biggest geyser out of Coke, Fanta, & Root Beer because Diet Pepsi has potassium benzoate, aspartame, and the carbonation which react to mentos. Design an Experiment Materials List: 1 clear test tube 35 original flavored Mentos candies (2 1/2 rolls) 1 3x5 index card 4 2L bottles of soda (all different flavors/types) 1 2L bottle of soda water 1 100 mL graduated cylinder 1 400 mL beaker 1 pair of tweezers (preferably large) 1 small container Procedure: Stack seven mentos in the test tube When given permission take the test tube, soda bottles, index cards, and the remaining 25 mentos, to the designated area Place one of the four soda bottles on a flat area Open the soda bottle and place the 3x5 index card over it With the index card over the soda bottle, flip the test tube over and place it on the index card, so the test tube is lined with
Each vitamin has a specific role in the body. A deficiency in vitamin A can lead to impaired gluconeogenesis and impaired vision at night. Vitamin B12, B6, and folic acid all play a role in Red Blood Cell formation. Vitamin B6 and Niacin help to convert carbohydrates to pyruvate. Thiamin helps to convert pyruvate to Acetyl Co-A. Vitamin B6, Niacin, and
Fermentation uses more glucose because the process of fermentation is much less efficient than cellular respiration in terms of energy production per molecule of glucose used. The open flask (control) and the closed
1% glucose, 1% maltose and 1% lactose all progressively get positive results by changing colours to reddish brown at the end of this experiment. In this case the aldehyde functional group that is present in the products (monosaccharides and some disaccharides) in this reaction is able to reduce copper in the presence of alkali and this produces colour changes while converting to an aldose sugar. Honey is made of fructose and glucose which instantly turned brown after the test-tube was placed in the boiling water because of its active aldehyde and carbonyl group. The copper (II) sulphate present in the Benedict’s solution reacts with electrons from the aldehyde group which results in a redox reaction to from cuprous oxide, a red brown precipitate that seen in all of the above mentioned solutions (Hill, 1982). Beer also gave positive results because it contains aldehydes and ketones (i.e. acetone, trans-2-butenal, furfual) during its beer production process where the sugars are converted through fermentation (Hill, 1982).
Starch is the storage form in plants and glycogen is the storage form of glucose in animals and in animals as glycogen, for times when the organism will need it [1]. The structure of glucose has following components[1]: 1. There are 2 basic functional groups: one of them is aldehyde and other is hydroxyl groups. Because of the presence of these two polar functional groups, glucose (and other monosaccharides) is highly soluble in water (1.5 g/mL at 25 ºC).
The pyruvate molecules that were created in glycolysis are then sometimes fermented into lactic acid. Lactic acid can be used to transform lactose into lactic acid, for example in the making of yoghurt. This process is also used in animal muscles when they require extra energy in their tissue in order to run faster than oxygen can be given. C6H12O6 (glucose) > 2CH3CHOHCOOHc*lactic acid) is the net equation for glucose to lactic acid.
The principles of using acid catalyzed carbohydrate dehydration as a quantifier was sufficiently communicated, and the possible sources of error that resulted in a relatively inaccurate determination of the total carbohydrate concentration in the soda and Gatorade will be taken into consideration if conducting this analysis in the
Over the centuries,activated carbon has been used as an adsorbent and purify in water. In India, during 450 B.C. charcoal filter is used to treat water. It can be produced through the use of raw carbon resources like coal and peat, and Waste-product materials such as shells of coconut and sawdust. Activated carbon also called as activated charcoal is a carbon that undergone to processes so it will have small and low-volume pores that increase the surface area for adsorption. Two way to produce activated carbon are physical and chemical activation.
