Lab 4 Quiz 1. Enzymes and what is their function? a. Enzyme: biological catalysts that regulate chemical reactions that occur in cells. Responsible for things such as converting food to energy‚ replace old damaged tissues‚ disposal of cellular waste products. Are responsible for lowering the activation energy. 2. Most enzymes are proteins with three-dimensional shapes determined by their amino acid sequence. 3. Substrate – is a reactant molecule that binds to the highly specific active site

A key component of the quantification of the protein concentration in the given samples was the generation of a standard curve. The data presented in Table 1 produced the graph in Figure 1 which was then used to calculate a line of best fit. The line of best fit yielded an equation y= 0.44976x which was in turn used to calculate unknown protein concentrations of given samples. The absorbances of the whole milk‚ cereal milk and muscle milk had been previously obtained and recorded via spectrophotometer

The effect of time on enzyme reaction. Abstract: In this lab investigation we will observe how the amount of hydrogen peroxide is affected by catalase over time. The enzyme was added to 10 mL’s of hydrogen peroxide and observed over time to determine the relation between time and enzyme activity. The hypothesis stated that as time increased substrate would decrease. Therefore I predicted that at 60 seconds‚ there would be the least amount of H2O2. The enzyme activity mirrored my predictions

Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to measure the effects of changes in temperatures and pH on enzyme activity in skeletal muscle‚ particularly the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). LDH is a glycolytic enzyme which converts pyruvate to lactate in the following equation: LDH Pyruvate+ NADH ------------ Lactate + NAD The reaction above can move in both directions‚

Biology Digestive Enzyme Experiment “Design an experiment in which you will investigate a digestive enzyme’s effect on digestion” Research Question: To determine the effect of enzyme concentration on the rate of digestion. This will be done by increasing the concentration of the enzyme diastase and investigate its effect on the rate of starch digestion. The rate will be determined by the amount of time it takes to completely digest the powdered starch‚ the complete digestion will be indicated by

the outcome of enzyme activity Introduction In this project I will monitor the rate of activity of Catalase. Catalase is an Enzyme which in the right conditions catalyses the decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide into water and oxygen; 2H2O2 + Catalase >>> 2H2O + O2 Catalase is found in all cells and protects them from Hydrogen Peroxide which is a dangerous waste product that needs to be eliminated. Without Catalase living things could not survive. What are Enzymes? Enzymes are found in 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
