EFFECTS OF CENTRAL RIFT GEOLOGICAL FORMATION ON ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES a) Farming At the floor of the central rift‚ the volcanic soils that have been eroded from the top of the mountains like menengai‚ has been put into use through farming. There is wheat farming in Nakuru‚ maize plantations‚ Irish potato growing in the central rift due to fertile soils which support the growth of the crops. Also there is tea growing in Kericho as a result of its favourable physical factors such as climate‚ rainfall

Enzyme Assignment Research SBI4U Test A2 Table of Contents 1. What are the function roles and biological significance of the enzyme? Trypsin is part of the digestive system and degrades proteins‚ making it an enzyme known as protease. [1] It is one of the three principal digestive proteinases‚ the other two being pepsin and chymotrypsin. [9] Trypsin primarily hydrolyses peptides into smaller building-blocks‚ mainly amino acids (these peptides are the result of

BIOLOGY HSC NOTES MAINTAINING A BALANCE • Identify the role of enzymes in metabolism‚ describe their chemical composition and use a simple model to describe their specificity on substrates. Enzymes are protein molecules that allow the body to engage in chemical reactions‚ such as metabolism. There activities can be catalytic (being able to control the rate of either increasing/decreasing chemical reaction) Enzymes have a specific shape‚ and this shape must be intact‚ otherwise the effectiveness

RUNNING HEAD: Understanding Enzymes Understanding Enzymes Amanda Chung Blanche Ely High School Abstract The researcher conducted this experiment in order to investigate how various factors effected enzymes. Those factors were the concentration of the enzyme‚ the temperature it had to work in‚ and the pH level of the solutions as well. All three were hypothesized to speed up the rate at which the enzyme acted. A series of several tests were carried out to find the answer to each problem

Omar Shbeeb Toothpick Enzyme Lab 9/25/13 Introduction Enzymes are used in all metabolic reactions to control the rate of reactions and decrease the amount of energy necessary for the reaction to take place. They are responsible for the thousands of chemical interconversions that sustain life. Enzymes are referred to highly selective catalysts‚ meaning they speed up the rate of metabolic reactions. To react‚ they need to find a perfect match with a substrate. They converge at a place called an

that the enzyme concentration will affect the rate of reaction but only up until a certain point because there is a limited supply of substrate. Enzymes are protein molecule that acts as biological catalyst by increasing the rate of reactions without changing the overall process. They are long chain amino acids bound together by peptide bonds. Enzymes are seen in all living cells and controlling the metabolic processes in which they converted nutrients into energy and new cells. Enzymes also help

10.10.2012 Internal assessment on enzyme concentration Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts and they are the most important type of protein. My aim in this experiment was to investigate the effect of enzyme concentration on the rate of an enzyme (protease) – catalyzed reaction ‚ catalysts speed up chemical reactions . My hypothesis is that the rate as reaction will increase as the

purpose of this experiment is to study how enzyme activity is affected by environmental conditions. Researchers tested the level of potato extract enzyme activity with 1-11 pH‚ varying temperature‚ catechol solution‚ hydroquinone solution‚ and different measurements of catechol. In Figure 1A and 1B‚ pH levels were tested with potato extract to see how pH would affect the amount of Benzoquinone is formed in the potato. Although it was hypothesized that enzymes would form Benzoquinone better in acidic
