Lactase Lab Report

I hypothesized that lactase would work well in 37°C because it exists in our body and our body’s temperature is 37°C. In addition, I also hypnotized that the enzyme is acidic on the pH scale because it exists in our small intestine and our small intestine uses acid to break down food. The result from the lab prove my hypothesis correct because lactase worked well at body temperature and it also worked well at pH of 4.5 to 5.5 mg/dl proving that lactase works best at an acidic pH number. The lab shows that the highest amount of glucose is made by temperatures close to body temperature. In our our lab, we found that at 35 °C 500 mg/dl glucose was produced, which was the highest number of glucose that we found and to prove the belief that the
