The experimental results were different from the hypothesis because while the enzyme appeared to not work as well‚ I expected a more significant change. Most of the time‚ there was only a millimeter of difference of the foam between the two samples while I expected a greater difference such as 10 millimeters. Enzymes speed up chemical reactions and at the active site‚ a substrate can be broken down or two substrates can form a larger molecule. Hydrogen peroxide is broken down by peroxidase into water

Legalize it I Abstract There are many reasons why marijuana should be legalized. Throughout this paper‚ evidence will be given to show how the positive outcomes of legalizing cannabis outweighs the negative. Not only does marijuana have many medicinal characteristics‚ but this plant would help the society overall. Marijuana is the most widely used illegal substance in the United States‚ and has created a multibillion dollar industry (Datwyler and Weiblen‚ 2006). The effects legalization of marijuana

This experiment is to determine the unknown DNA plasmid using restriction enzymes and conducting electrophoresis finally comparing the resulting fragments with the known restriction map. In this lab‚ it succeeds in showing the fragments. In this report we will discuss the‚ results‚ limitations and possible errors. Introduction In biology restriction enzymes are used in several ways to modify and manipulate DNA molecules. One common use is to compare pieces of DNA from one that is unknown‚ with fragments

Six Factors Affecting the Performance of an Enzyme Enzymes are considered catalysts; substances that increase the rates of reactions. Enzymes are responsible for thousands of metabolic processes that involve the sustainment of life‚ one common one is simple food digestion. Without enzymes‚ digestion would occur too slowly for life to continue. Enzymes maintain a protein structure consisting of one or possibly more than one polypeptide chains of defined primary structure‚ and take up a characteristic

Abstract This research paper explores the aspects of Going Green. This research paper consists mainly of secondary data and references done through articles‚ Internet‚ and environmentally related published books. Going Green means a lifestyle change that is in balance with humanity and the earth. Going Green is essential to maintaining sustainability and conserving our natural resources for the future and our children’s future. It is predicated that the world’s population growth is expected

The effect of enzyme concentration‚ substrate concentration‚ pH‚ and temperature on the enzyme catalase. Introduction: Enzymes are biological catalysts; proteins and RNA. They are required for most biological reactions and they are highly specific. Each enzyme has an active site. The active site is the spot on the enzyme where a substrate fits in. Substrates binds with enzymes through the active site. Enzymes‚ being highly specific‚ only fit with one certain substrate. Enzymes and substrates
