how to describe levels of organization?
a bunch of _____ working together
microscope question
1. place the slide on stage
2. put the objective lens to the lowest power
3. adjust the mirror/switch on the light
4. adjust the coarse focus
5. then adjust the fine focus
6. change to the desired lens (x10 x20 etc)
7. refocus using the coarse then fine focus
calculating percentages? avoiding uncertaincies or inconsistencies in experiment
a student calculated the percentage of change in mass rather than the change in mass itself since the object may have varying masses or sizes (READ QUESTION CAREFULLY)
concentration gradient x intercept
** Y AXIS IS CHANGE IN MASS
** X AXIS IS CONCENTRATION (mol/dm^3)
the point wherein the line of best fit intersects with the x axis means there is 0 change in mass, therefore that is when equilibrium is reached
osmosis vs diffusion
osmosis: WATER only, SEMIPERMEABLE membrane is required
diffusion: FLUIDS (gas and liquids), NO OBSTACLES
low water potential
high solute concentration
lysis
The bursting of an animal cell due to being placed in a hypotonic (lots of free water, low concentration) solution

enzymes' 5 properties
1. made of protein (amino acids
2. catalyze reactions (speed them up)
3. specific shape
4. affected by temperature and
5. pH
substrate
what enzymes react with
enzyme words to use!
specific
active site
binds
shape
denatured
collisions
substrate + enzyme =
enzyme-substrate complex
active site
the part of the enzyme which the reactant binds to; it is specific to its substrate
temperature's effects on enzymes
higher temperature increases kinetic energy of the enzymes allowing them to move around more and causes more collisions;
however, once the temperature reaches beyond the optimum, the enzyme's is denatured, destroying its shape/active site
pH's effects on enzymes
there is an optimum pH for enzymes to work;
a too high or too low pH can cause the enzyme to be denatured and its shape/active site will be destroyed
pH enzyme graph
steep increase, steep decrease
temperature enzyme graph
gradual increase, steep decrease
enzyme-substrate complex
what is formed when enzyme binds to a substrate when they collide
