Each of these trials was repeated three times to ensure proper accuracy. After concluding the reactions they were placed into a spectrophotometer (A580) for analysis. Graphing the values of the absorbance to time for each pH it was found that the rate of reactions in the neutral pH solutions were much higher than that of the acidic solution. We concluded that this was because of the possibility of an enzyme to become denatured in acidic solution. Introduction The study of enzymes is crucial

2.1.3 Cultural Practices Affecting Soybean Growth and Development The choice of cultivar plays a great role in increasing soybean production. Soybean genotypes are sensitive to changes in environmental conditions where the crop is grown. Therefore‚ it is necessary to study the interaction between genotype and environment in order to identify the genotypes that are stable in specific environments (Calvino et al.‚ 2003). This has resulted in the classification of soybean into thirteen (000‚ 00‚ 0
