Goal 1: Experimental Design Smithers thinks that a special juice will increase the productivity of workers. He creates two groups of 50 workers each and assigns each group the same task (in this case, they're supposed to staple a set of papers). Group A is given 1 cup of the special juice to drink while they work. Group B is given 1 cup of water. After an hour, Smithers counts how many stacks of papers each group has made. Group A made 2,113 stacks, Group B made 1,587 stacks.
What is Smithers trying to find out? • Smithers is trying to find out if drinking the juice will increase the amount of stapling that can be accomplished. • List 3 variables that would have to be a constant in this experiment. • Type of juice, amount of juice, types of staplers, etc.
Which variable is the independent variable? • Juice is the independent variable. • Which variable is the dependent variable? • Amount of stacks of papers stapled is the dependent variable. • Is this experiment valid? Explain? • This appears to be a valid experiment. There is a good sample size, it is controlled and it tests a single variable.
Experimental Design • Lisa is working on a science project. Her task is to answer the question: "Does Rogooti (which is a commercial hair product) affect the speed of hair growth". She uses her family members for this experiment and measures each person’s hair growth each day for a week. Lisa has Bart use 10 mL of the product twice a day and his hair grows 9 cm. Lisa has Homer use 20 mL of the product once a day and his hair grows 2 cm. Lisa has her sister Maggy use 5 mL of the product 4 times a day and her hair grows 12 cm. • This is an example of an experiment that is not valid.
a. Describe 3 reasons why this experiment is not valid. • Different volumes used, sample size is small, amount of times used are all different. • b. Describe how you would change this experiment to make it valid. • Use the same amount of product on every subject. Increase the number of subjects. Give it the same number of times each day.
Experimental Design • An experiment was performed to determine how much fertilizer was needed to produce the most pumpkins on the vine.
What is the problem? • Amount of fertilizer needed. • What is the independent variable? • Amount of fertilizer given. • What is/are the dependent variables? • Amount of pumpkins produced. • What were/are the constant(s)? • Type of seed, water, sun, soil type.
What is the control and why? • The plants that had no fertilizer because it would show the effect of fertilizer. • How much fertilizer would you use to grow the most pumpkins? • 200 grams
Experimental Design • A test was conducted to determine the highest possible soda geyser when placing Mentos into the soda.
What is the problem and the question in the above experiment? • Trying to determine the # of Mentos it takes to create a geyser in diet soda. How many Mentos does it take to make the tallest geyser? • What is the independent variable? • Number of Mentos • What is/are the dependant variable(s)? • Height of geyser. • What were/are the constant(s)? • Type of soda, amount of soda, temperature of surroundings, temperature of beverage, day the Mentos were dropped.
What is the control and why? • No Mentos in Soda A. It would show that the geyser was the result of Mentos. • Using the information above, would you drop 9 Mentos into the diet soda? Explain why or why not. • No…..9 Mentos produced the same result as 6 Mentos. It would not make a higher geyser.

List the function and describe the structure of the following organelles: • Nucleus • Spherical structure that contains chromatin (DNA); therefore the control center of the cell • Plasma membrane • Phospholipid bilayer that surrounds the cell; it is selectively permeable • Cell wall • Rigid structure which surrounds a plant cell or bacteria or fungi cell (as well as some protists!)
Mitochondria • Oval structure with highly folded inner membrane; cellular respiration occurs here to produce ATP • Vacuoles • Membrane bound organelles that act as storage for food or water. Water vacuoles in plant cells are large and maintain the turgor pressure for the cell. • Chloroplast • Membranous organelle where photosynthesis occurs. • Ribosomes • Nonmembranous organelle where protein synthesis occurs both in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

diffusion osmosis osmosis
Changes in osmotic pressure • Which direction will the water move?
The water will move to from the right side of the tube to the left side of the tube. Water diffuses from areas of high concentration of water to areas of low concentration of water. The water level on the left side of the u tube will go up.
What is the main source of energy for all cells? • Glucose produced during photosynthesis • How do cells store and use energy (hint- Adenosine…….) • ATP (Adenosine triphosphate)
What organic molecule is an enzyme? • Enzymes are proteins • What is the function of an enzyme? • Acts as a catalyst in a biochemical reaction • Explain the process of an enzyme binding to the active site of a substrate molecule. • Enzyme + Substrate → Enzyme-Substrate Complex → Enzyme + Product(s) • The active site is specific for its substrate. There are two models (lock-and-key and induced fit). The active site puts the reactant(s) in formation for the proper chemical reaction.
How do temperature and pH affect enzymes? • Each enzyme has an optimum temperature and pH that allow it to be most active. Temperature will generally speed enzyme action until it denatures the enzyme protein. pH changes beyond optimum will modify bonding in the enzyme and cause it to change shape. • Can an enzyme be reused? • Yes! The enzyme can be used over and over again.
Is an enzyme specific to a particular job? • Yes…i.e. sucrase works on sucrose • Draw an enzyme doing a general job and label the parts. • See enzyme-substrate complex in your book pg162
