Creatine Information: Creatine is a naturally occurring metabolite found in muscle tissue. It plays an important role in energy metabolism and ATP reformulation. Muscle soreness, lactate buildup, and fatigue are direct results of depleted ATP stores. Creatine replenishes ATP stores, thus prolonging the time to fatigue. Creatine also increases available instant energy, increases muscular strength,…

The objective of this experiment was to ascertain the reactions of carbohydrates in three tests: Benedict’s test, Barfoed’s test, and Iodine test. Carbohydrates have a vital role in living organisms and primarily contribute to energy production. They are made up of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen with a ratio of 1:2:1. Carbohydrates consist of three main…

Introduction The Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is a rare, genetically inherited disorder first described by Michael Lesch and Willian Nyhan in 1964 (Nyhan et al., 2007). It affects males, and is present immediately after the child is born. The prevalence of the disease is of about 1/100,000 of live births worldwide, with around 1/380,000 in Canada and in…

Carbohydrates are molecules that are synthesized from carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms. Some types of carbohydrates consist of a single unit consisting of a few atoms, while other carbohydrates consists of thousands of units linked together through chemical bonds. Glucose, maltose, and glycogen are three carbohydrates that are similar, but structurally different. Carbohydrates have the…

Objective In lab 3, we need to use steam distillation to extract pure Eugenol from cloves. In lab 4 part 1, we should aim for the highest quality pure crystallization of acetylsalicylic acid from aspirin. In part 2 of lab 4, our objective is to obtain a comparable pure crystallization of benzil from an impure…

Before delving into the “gothic” elements found in Melville’s Moby Dick and the short stories of Nathaniel Hawthorne, it may be helpful to understand just what the term “gothic” means in a literary context. While the original “Goths” – a Germanic tribe originating in a region of present-day Sweden still known as Götland – were…

 Intro/Background In order for oxygen to be present photosynthesis must occur. Photosynthesis takes in light and CA, and through a series of steps produces oxygen. Photosynthesis can be measured by either the disappearance of substrate or the accumulation of product. Examples include the production of 02 or the consumption of CA. All the oxygen within…

We are first introduced to Virgil Tibbs at a train station, where he sits silently upon a bench marked “coloured. ” He appears to be quiet and shy, and possibly scared of the Caucasian officer who arrests him, but we are soon to realise that there is a lot more to Mr. Tibbs than just…

Abstraction Green fluorescent protein has natural fluorescent properties which can be used in various applications. Mutagenesis of wild type GFP gives variants that are widely used as protein fusion tags, biomarkers, for analyzing protein interactions and localization of signals. GFP variants have led to technological advancements in biological studies such as FRET. In this review,…

Q1. The information in exhibit 1 shows that the inventory strategy remains constant regardless of CSO sales performance and overall profit from operations. This strategy helps De Beers effectively manage demand and prices. Furthermore, the exhibit highlights that during the bust in the 1980s, inventory levels were significantly higher than both OP and CSO sales,…
