Banana Reports Samples For Students

Aim

The experiment aims to study the effect of substrate concentration on the activity of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) from banana extracts using spectrophotometric techniques.

Introduction

An enzyme refers to a molecule that is protein in nature and works as a biological catalyst. The enzyme possesses three major characteristics. The first characteristic is that they act to increase the rate at which a given reaction takes place. This enables most cellular reactions to take place at up to million times faster compared to their rate in the absence of an enzyme. Secondly, most enzymes act specifically on a single reactant known as a substrate to produce the ...

Introduction

Fruits flies or Drosophila melanogaster nourish on the fungi and bacteria present on rotting fruit. They have a unique capability of tracking food via remote chemoreception while flying and landing. Once they sense the smell of the food, they continue to hunt for it on the ground. This behavior is termed as foraging, and it is dependent on the process of chemoreception (Bateman, 1972). Flies possess chemoreceptors in the front pair of legs to sense such unique sensations, which facilitate them to discover or taste the substance ...

Apple VS. Orange

This is a comparison between an apple and an orange as to study their effect on the behavior of flies.
Here we observe that that at time=0min, 11 flies have come to the apple side. At t=5 min, 11 more flies came to the apple side. At time t=10min, 12 more flies came to the apple side.
Simultaneously, we observe that at time t=0min, 3 flies came to the orange side. At time t=5min, 3 more flies came to Orange side. At time t=10 min, a single fly joined the cohort of the flies towards the Orange side.
Apart ...

Lab Report on preparation of Esters by Esterification

Introduction
The organic esters are characterized using their pleasant and fruity odors. Some of these odors include lead to fruits such as banana, pear, and orange to have their pleasant smelling. When carboxylic acid is mixed with an alcohol in the presence of a strong acid leads to the production of an ester. The strong acid is used as a catalyst and the general reaction is as below.
The esterification reaction is a reversible reaction with the forward being referred to as esterification, while the reverse reaction hydrolysis. The general formula of an ester compound is as follows:
The experiment aimed ...

Introduction

The fiber optic systems are systems which use light as a mode of communication. The system includes fiber cables which allow for the transmission of light through them. Inside the cable are special coatings for protection and also to enable the transmission of light through total internal reflection (Hoss and Lacy). The light is then converted into electrical signals through the use of light detectors having in mind that the signal was produced by a light emitting diode. The use of optics is very wide since the use of light is much more efficient and also flexible being that ...
