Color Change Dependent Variable
1,395 wordsIntroduction: Carbohydrates are molecules that contain Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. The most basic sugar- carbohydrate is the monosaccharide. Carbohydrate molecules are categorized by the number of carbons present in the molecule. Glucose, the most common monosaccharide has six carbons per molecule, which is called a hexose. Carbohydrates also have a 2: 1 hydrogen to oxygen ratio. This aids in the condensation and hydrolysis reactions. A condensation reaction occurs when two monosaccharides joi...

Control Of Blood Glucose Levels
1,253 wordsControl of Blood Glucose Levels Homeostasis is the mechanism for keeping your internal conditions constant. Homeostatic control of blood glucose can be made using insulin. It decreases blood sugar concentration making it about 80 - 120 mg of glucose per 100 ml of blood during fasting Insulin is the only hormone that decreases blood sugar level. The presence of insulin causes a cells membrane to be more permeable to glucose; this causes blood sugar level to drop in the blood. Homeostatic control ...

Source Of Energy Due To The Fact
2,196 wordsOver the past four or five decades, and especially in recent years, there has been a lot of talk among the scientific community and in everyday life about the development of nuclear fusion as an energy source. It seems that the everyday person has some sort of fairy tale image of fusion power in the back of their head. When they hear about dwindling un renewable resources such as coal, oil, and natural gas, they just sort of file it away with the hope that fusion power will come flying down with...

Nitrogenous Bases Amino Acids
1,451 wordsDeoxyribonucleic acid and DNA DNA Deoxyribonucleic acid and ribonucleic acid are two chemical substances involved in transmitting genetic information from parent to offspring. It was known early into the 20 th century that chromosomes, the genetic material of cells, contained DNA. In 1944, Oswald T. Avery, Colin M. MacLeod, and Maclyn McCarty concluded that DNA was the basic genetic component of chromosomes. Later, RNA would be proven to regulate protein synthesis. (Miller, 139) DNA is the genet...

2,643 wordsSaturn is the outermost planet of the planets known in ancient times. The earliest known observations of Saturn, by the Babylonians, can be reliably dated to the mid- 7 th century BC, but it was probably noticed much earlier, since Saturn tends to shine brighter than most stars. To the naked eye it appears yellowish. The Greeks named it after Cronus, the original ruler of Olympus, who in Roman is the god Saturn. Saturn is the 6 th planet in order distance from the sun. It cannot approach the pla...
