Enzyme Lab 6 03/13/2013 Report by Mary Jo Anthony I. Introduction II. Materials and Methods III. Results IV. Conclusion and Discussion Introduction Background Information: This lab allowed us to study chemical reactions and how catalysts will affect the rate of these reactions. The reaction we studied is the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen and it is vital to life. The molecule hydrogen peroxide is a molecule that is toxic

Biology Enzyme Catalase Investigation Aim: The aim of this investigation is to study and observe whether or not the concentration of hydrogen peroxide (varying from 10 – 30 millilitres) affects the rate of reaction. Hypothesis: With the increase of the concentration of Hydrogen Peroxide 3% substrate‚ I prediction that the rate of pressure increase will begin to amplify. The pressure is bound to increase because the catalase quickly reacts with the hydrogen peroxide; this is why the more substrate
Premium Catalase Measurement Gas
Enzymes- reduce the amount of energy required for the reactions they catalyse [accelerate]. -thus‚ increasing the rate of reactions that occur in living organisms. WITHOUT enzymes : metabolism would be so slow at body temp. that insufficient energy would be available to sustain life. -Many enzymes are “Intracellular”- used within the cell that produced them e.g. enzymes in respiration & photosynthesis -Others are “extracellular”-they act outside the

------------------------------------------------- Enzyme Pre-Lab Harry Kang 9/26/12 1) The purpose of this lab was to determine the rate of enzyme activity under variety of different conditions‚ such as‚ different amount of drops of enzymes and different temperature of water. The class measured the pressure in the test tube during the reaction of the substance with‚ 1.5 ml of H2O2‚ 1.5ml of H2O and different amounts of enzyme drops‚ to determine how much oxygen gas is produced during the reaction

Enzyme Lab Introduction/ Abstract An enzyme is a substance produced by a living organism that acts as a catalyst to bring about a specific biochemical reaction. They are mainly made up of proteins and can tremendously speed up reactions. E. coli ( a bacterium) has about 1‚000 different types of enzymes floating around in its cytoplasm at any given time. Enzymes can be used to join and even break up molecules as shown in the diagram below. (1)

Investigate Concentration of Substrate on Catalase enzyme 1. Aim/Prediction. Aim of this experiment is to investigate concentration of substrate on catalase enzyme‚ as well to see how they work in different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Prediction would be‚ that the filter paper discs that were used‚ will rise up to the surface in a time in the tube of different concentration of hydrogen peroxide. And in different concentrations the time will be different. As higher the concentration

Enzyme Report Case 1 - Hereditary Fructose Intolerance 1 & 2. Enzymes take on a variety of roles in the human body at the cellular level. Specifically‚ they aid in the breakdown of macronutrients such as glucose and fructose so that the body can use them. Although reactions within the body would occur without enzymes‚ enzymes provide control because the reaction is not needed all of the time. Enzymes function in specific environments such as temperature or pH; some enzymes are specific

In the statistical analysis statistical formulas and techniques are used to analyze the significance of a set of data and the validity of the conclusions made based on that data. These are some terms and definitions that will be crucial to understanding the validity of this experiment. An enzyme is a protein that acts as a catalyst to lower the activation
