    Effects of Temperature on a Frog INTRODUCTION: Amphibians are cold-blooded animals that adapt to the surrounding temperatures. Frogs are one kind of amphibian. Frogs are cold-blooded. Cold-blooded animals are more active in warmer temperatures and stagnant when it is cold. A frog’s system is always moving, but depending on the temperature it is exposed to, its breaths aren’t always clearly visible or at a constant rate. A frog’s skin is able to take in oxygen in exchange for carbon dioxide, so

    The real life application that comes out from this experiment relates to the climate change and the ocean temperature. Ocean holds great capacity of carbon dioxide. When the temperature in the environment boosts due to global warming, the ability for the ocean to hold carbon dioxide directly determines the amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere. Since carbon dioxide itself allows to absorb great quantity of infrared radiation, so glaciers, ice caps and snow on the top of the mountain

    in order to maintain optimal temperatures which will allow them to be active and alive (Cerda, 2001). The aim of the project was to examine the effect of temperature on the ant’s activity, hypothesized that their activity will decrease as the temperature increases. Placing the same species of ants in different temperatures was the objective. The ants were found to be active almost at the same times of the day, even though they were exposed into different temperatures. I was thinking that the ants

    enzyme reactions increase as the temperature is raised? It is proven that the rate of an enzyme reaction increases as the temperature is raised. But by how much? A ten-degree centigrade rise in temperature will increase by fifty to on hundred percent. There is a direct influence between enzyme activity and temperature. The question that was studied in Bio110 lab Enzyme Activity II was “Does temperature influence the activity of an enzyme?” The null hypothesis is; temperature does not significantly influence

    to 1, where 1 equals a perfect elastic collision. In this experiment, the effect of temperature on a squash ball was investigated. Various types of squash balls were subject to different temperatures then dropped from a 2 metre height. A slow-motion capture camera was used to record bounce heights, then the results were carefully analysed and recorded into the data table. The results showed that as temperature

    performs the best as the temperature increases to 30’C. The rate declines as the temperature increases over 30 and it no longer works at 70. When the surrounding temperature increases to 30, the reactant absorbs enough energy to top of the activation energy barrier and the reaction occurs. As the temperature inclines, there begins an increase in molecular movement which leads to an increasing rate of reaction, in this case, producing more bubbles of gas. However, as the temperature get high, the transition

    Thermography measures differences in temperature. With breast cancer there is an increased amount of new blood vessels in the tumor to supply its nutrient and oxygen needs. Cancer cells not only form new blood vessels but also reopen unused blood vessels and maintain existing ones. These blood vessels result in additional blood flow, which causes excessive heat. The metabolism of breast cancer cells is faster than the surrounding tissue, and cancer is often associated with inflammation. The doctor

    problem is that they are trying to figure out at what temperatures they grow best.The data that is being collected is crystal size (in centimeters).The variable being changed in the experiment is the temperature (in degrees) that the crystals will be grown in. In all of the experiments,the same jar, pencil, string and thermometer will be used. The hypothesis in this experiment that will be tested is “ If there is a higher temperature inside the jar,then bigger crystals will form because

    Table one (which contain 0 degrees) can clearly prove that our hypothesis was supported, the law elasticity states that when cold temperature is applied to a rubber band it will expand meaning the less elastic constant; this worked a bit the opposite in our case. Take note that human error could have played a large part in this experiment. 100 g in test 1, 2 and 3 is rather odd as the elasticity of the rubber band is decreasing in value: it starts at 0.4 and ends up in 0; this should be the complete

    confirmed. The froth volume will increase as the temperatures increase, and then once the optimum temperature is reached (approximately 39°C), the froth volume will then start to decrease afterwards. This will be caused by the enzymes denaturing due to the high temperatures. Experimental Procedures The independent variable for this experiment is the temperature of the water bath, as this is what factor is changing throughout the practical. The temperatures will be ranging from 10°C to 50°C in ten degree
