Enzyme Activity Lab Hypothesis: 1] Are enzymes reusable? Yes‚ enzymes are reusable. 2] Which of the following do you think contain catalase? [Manganese dioxide‚ chicken meat‚ apple‚ carrot‚ potato‚ or chicken liver] I think that the manganese dioxide‚ apple‚ and carrot contain the catalase. 3] Would grinding the materials affect enzyme activity? I think that grinding the materials will increase enzyme activity. 4] Would temperature affect enzyme activity? I think that

The enzyme tyrosinase was successively extracted by combining a homogenate of a potato and sodium sulfate with ammonium sulfate. Tyrosinase was successfully extracted by taking advantage of solubility properties of certain proteins. A standard curve was generated indicating dopachrome absorbance values through the use of a spectrophotometer and a computer graphing program. A spectrophotometer was used to measure either the amount of light that passed through a solution (transmittance) of the amount

Sample Lab Report: Factors which Affect the Activity of the Enzyme Catalase Purpose: Must include: background information about concepts involved in the lab‚ statement of purpose of the lab identification of independent and dependent variables. A hypothesis is often not necessary or appropriate. Enzymes are proteins that speed up chemical reactions in cells. They break down molecules called substrates. Each enzyme has only one substrate that it breaks down. Enzymes are produced in

What we think about ourselves is who we become. If we think we are inadequate‚ we will begin to act that way. If we feel positive‚ we will act that way. The trail forward towards

Effect of the Changes in the Environment to the Functionality of the Enzymes Introduction a. Background In our everyday lives‚ enzymes are used in our bodies‚ and in nature around us‚ to speed up the chemical reactions happening constantly‚ which happens by lowering the amount of activation energy needed to start various reactions. The way this works is by attaching the particular substrate to the active site of the enzyme‚ where it will start to aid the chemical reaction. Then‚ the allosteric

Lab 6.C Hypothesis: If enzyme activity is affected by the pH of a solution‚ then the enzymes will experience the greatest activity at a pH of 6. Variables: Independent Variables Dependent Variable Controls Four different pH values (10‚ 7‚ 6‚ and 3) Change in color of the solution The amount of potato extract‚ pH solution‚ and catechol used (1 cm +/- .1cm) Size of the test tubes Amount of time allowed for the catechol to sit with the potato extract and pH solution (20 minutes with 5

Enzymes play a vital role in helping our body function. They act as biological catalysts and help speed up reactions that would otherwise take long periods of time to naturally occur. Enzymes help lower the activation energy required for the reactants to reach the transitional state from which then they can form products. However‚ enzymes do not change the free energy of the reaction. Enzyme’s ability to catalyze reactions comes from the shape of the active site on the enzyme. Enzymes are hyper-specific

Misael Acosta Photosynthesis Lab Report Ms. Rocha AP Biology 4th Period II. Intro/Background 1. In order for oxygen to be present photosynthesis must occur. Photosynthesis takes in light and CO2‚ and through a series of steps produces oxygen. Photosynthesis can be measured by either the disappearance of substrate or the accumulation of product. Examples include the production of O2 or the consumption of CO2. All the oxygen within the leaf disks will be removed before being placed

Enzymes Introduction This study allows the investigation of enzymatic reactions behavior. An enzyme is a protein catalyst reaction by lowering the activation energy required for that reaction. The enzyme is unaltered at the completion of the reaction. In this stimulation the amount of product produced during the course of an enzymatic product produced during the course of an enzymatic reaction will be measured. Hypothesis 1: What is the estimate optimal of ph? Hypothesis 2: What is the estimate optimal of temperature
