Presentation Transcript

  1. Fermentation and respiration lab

  2. Outline of the day • Turn in your lab reports at the front • More than 10 minutes late = bad • Any questions on last week’s lab? • Quiz • Introduction to the lab • Lab! • Check out • Get a stamp • Make sure I mark you down for attendance

  3. Quiz • Ends 10 minutes after it’s started • Ends at: ____

  4. Lab this week! • Exploring metabolism! • Fermentation • Factors that affect enzyme reaction rates • Heat production by seedlings • Oxygen consumption by insects

  5. Yeast Fermentation • Yeast normally do oxidative metabolism • Just like us (glucose + O2 -> CO2 + H2O) • When yeast run out of O2 • They do fermentation, producing alcohol and CO2 Missing image: Image showing the reactions of anaerobic metabolism in yeast

  6. Metabolism – the minute summary Glucose -> -> Pyruvate -> -> NADH & FADH2 -> ->ATP • Glycolysis • Glucose -> Pyruvate • Produces 2 ATP • Electron transport chain • Uses NADH, FADH2 to produce ATP • Consumes O2, produces H2O • Krebs cycle • Big cycle with many reactions • Produces CO2 Missing image: Image showing mitochondria that can help illustrate the above reactions..

  7. TCA cycle • We’re going to look at just one reaction. Citric acid cycle ccbyasa by Mike Jones at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:TCA.svg

  8. Succinate Fumarate FAD FADH2 Succinate Fumarate DPIP (blue color) DPIPH2 (colorless) Key experimentalpoint • Normal reaction: • Our experiment: • We’re substituting DPIP for FAD

  9. Succinate Fumarate DPIP (blue color) DPIPH2 (colorless) Color change will indicate the reaction’s progress • As the reaction progresses, our solution will change from blue to clear • But this change will be too small to see, so we’ll use spectrophotometers

  10. Measuring oxygen consumption • How does it work? • Insects consume oxygen • Literally remove it from the atmosphere • (use it for oxidative respiration) • Insects product carbon dioxide • Add it to the atmosphere • (product of oxidative respiration) • KOH absorbs carbon dioxide • So, the volume of gas in the chamber will reduce by the amount of oxygen consumed KOH (Note: This picture is of a different setup than we will use) Photo of Manduca sexta by Marc Perkins

  11. What are mealworms? • They’re beetle larvae! Mealworms ccbynd by hans s at http://flickr.com/photos/archeon/15103838/ Adult by attirb by http://www.entomart.be/listetotale.html from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Tenebrio_molitor01.jpg

  12. Key points • NaF is an enzyme inhibitor • Remember how pipettes work • Practice with the spectrophotometer • Time is critical • For respiration • KOH is a chemical that absorbs carbon dioxide • So the volume of gas in the chamber will reduce as the insect metabolizes

  13. Before you leave • Clean up your work area • Wash glassware and store upside down • Show me your lab report so I can stamp it • Need to have all data fields filled in • Complete at home and then turn in at the beginning of next lab • Remember that we’ll have a quiz at the beginning of the next class • 6-7 questions on today’s lab • 3-4 questions on the lab we’ll do next week

  14. Notes for the instructor: • Add any relevant cleanup instructions to the final slide (that slide is a generic one I’m adding to each presentation).
