Purpose: To find how pH and temperature levels affect the enzyme Background: Enzymes are a type of protein vital to sustaining life‚ it works with vitamins and minerals as a biological catalyst‚ which lowers the activation energy for a reaction to occur. Each individual type of enzyme does a specific job‚ and they do not die‚ they are reused. For example‚ catalase is an enzyme found in almost all living cells that will break down hydrogen peroxide and turn it into water and oxygen. The

Biology- Change in pH Aim: To investigate the affect that change in pH levels has on a particular enzyme‚ in this case amylase. Hypothesis: In this investigation I expect as the pH reaches the optimum level‚ the rate of reaction will be fastest‚ compared to other pH levels. It is also suspected that after the enzyme has reached optimum level the enzyme activity will decrease. Through further study of the optimum level of amylase I found that the enzyme usually has an optima pH of 8. It is known

This technology is considered as the last resort when all other method in helps of aiding couples to have pregnancy. This method is important and has helped millions of families‚ yet it brings about a lot controversies questions about this technology regarding to its ethic morality. In my opinion‚ I believe that this technology’s

FlexCon is a company that prides itself on the quality of its pistons. Lately they have been relying on suppliers for major components while manufacturing simple items with relatively small differentiation. By doing this‚ too much of their talent is going to waste leaving them with a big decision of whether to keep outsourcing or to insource. They are already heavily dependent on suppliers for critical components. The cost it takes to insource is greater than the cost to outsource but deciding to

Enzyme Catalysis Introduction: Enzymes are produced by living organisms as proteins. These enzymes perform as catalysts to bring about a chemical reaction. In fact‚ most reactions are catalyzed by enzymes during reactions in the cell or in the human body. A catalyst that enzymes pose ad are by definition substances that are capable of initiating or speeding up a chemical reaction. Catalyst are not a necessity during a chemical reaction‚ they are just used to speed up a chemical reaction. This event

was designed to investigate the effects of temperature on reactions between the enzyme catalase found in animal tissue with the substrate H2O2. The hypothesis stated that an increase in the temperature of the substrate would create a subsequent increase in the rate of reaction between the enzyme and the substrate. This hypothesis was tested by immersing 1cm cubes of animal tissue (sheep liver) which contained the enzyme catalase into the substrate (H2O2 ) mixed with detergent which foamed showing a
