The rate of respiration in yeast and how it is affected by temperature. Aim In my experiment, my aim is to find out any correlation between rate of respiration of glucose by yeast and the mixture's temperature. I shall do this by conducting an experiment which will involve the timing of the yeast, water and glucose which has been mixed with a little methylene blue. I shall time how long it takes to revert to the original colour using a control. This shall be done at various temperatures. To obtain the best range of values to use in my final experiment, I shall conduct a preliminary experiment. This will also aid accuracy of the final experiment by uncovering potential flaws in the method. Hypothesis and Theory There are many ideas to suggest that the change in temperature will cause an increase of respiration in yeast. Yeast is a single celled fungus...
