macroeconomics discussion
A Macroeconomic View of the Current Economy
Read the article/interview at the link below on the Macroeconomic view of the current economy. First off, what things stand out to you? What things interest you? Second, refer to the second pillar concerning money. What if money did not exist? What if we had to use a barter system completely? Do you think this would work? You are welcome to research and provide examples of times that barter does or does not work.
life science discussion Enzymes
There are many different analogies for describing the way that enzymes work. For this discussion, develop your own analogy to describe the way that enzymes work. You may choose to develop an analogy that explains the way that enzymes interact with their substrates, or you may choose to pick a different aspect of enzyme mechanics. Include an outside source (this could be your textbook) with your post.
Life science assignment Enzyme Lab
In this lab, you will use common household materials to set up an experiment demonstrating how enzymes work.
Make sure that you have on hand all of the items from the week’s shopping list before you begin. You will need several hours or overnight to complete this lab, so make sure that you allow enough time.
Open the attached file to read the procedure for the lab.
Download and save the file.
Follow all the instructions carefully, answer all the questions, and include a picture of the experiment.
Submission Method: Answer in the attached file and submit as a .docx file.
Week 3 Midweek Assignment: Enzymes
Using Jell-o and Fruit to Demonstrate Enzymatic Activity
Materials
1 package of gelatin any brand or flavor (If you cannot use a cow or pig-based gelatin for any reason, try using a vegan gelatin based on agar-agar or carrageenan.)
3 Styrofoam or plastic cups
Small amount of fresh pineapple, kiwi, papaya, mango, or figs (must be fresh)
Canned pineapple, fruit cocktail, or boiled (for at least5 minutes) pineapple, kiwi, papaya, mango or figs
Procedure
1. Prepare for the lab by first filling out the table in the Background section (following the Procedure section).
2. Prepare the gelatin as directed on the package.
3. After preparing the gelatin, pour equal amounts into each of your three cups.
4. Label cup 1 as control. Do not add anything to the cup.
5. Label cup 2 freshfruit and add several chunks of the fresh fruit to the cup.
6. Label cup 3 canned fruit, and add several chunks of canned pineapple, several spoonfuls of fruit cocktail, or several pieces of boiled fruit.
7. Complete your Hypothesis on the next page.
8. Place the cups in the refrigerator and leave until the gelatin in the controlcup has set.
9. Remove cups from the refrigerator.
10. Get a piece of paper and write your name and UAG student ID on it. Place the paper next to the cups. Then take a picture of the cups with the paper clearly showing.
11. Complete the Data Table on the next page, insert or paste your picture in the Evidence section, and answer the questions.
Background
To prepare for the lab, fill out the following table. Questions you are to answer are in the left column. Do a search either in your reading materials or on the internet to answer the questions. In the column Source, write down or provide a link to the source which provided the answer. In the Quote column, copy and paste what the source says which answers the question. In the Your Paraphrase column, write the answer to the question in your own words. You will probably only need only one or two sentences for each answer.
