Ching Man 5C(21) Effects of temperature on the activity of lipase Aim: To investigate the effects of temperature on the activity of lipase enzyme on milk which contain fats or lipids. Introduction: Enzyme is a kind of biological catalyst that made up of protein. It can speed up the metabolic reactions on various kinds of substances. Like lipase can break down lipid into glycerol or fatty acids in milk. Since enzyme is made up of protein which easily affected by varies temperature. This experiment

Enzyme Reaction to Variable Elizabeth Alvidrez University of Texas at El Paso Abstract: An enzyme is a protein that serves as a biological catalyst (Denniston‚ 2007). Metabolic reactions happen with in cells. Enzymes are proteins that are used to speed up these reactions without being consumed by them (Mader‚ 2010). Catalase is a catalyst that digests potent hydrogen peroxide and converts it into H2O and O (Campbell Reese‚ 2008). The environment plays an important role

however‚ without enzymes‚ these reactions could possibly take several years to complete. An enzyme is a macromolecule‚ generally a protein‚ that lowers the activation energy of a reaction without being changed by the reaction‚ and this causes the reaction to occur much faster than usual (Campbell et al.‚ 2014). The act of speeding of a chemical reaction is called catalysis‚ and molecules that perform this are called catalyst. Enzymes act as catalysts‚ and there a many types of enzymes that perform many

Enzymes Ashley Njeru Mrs. Booth Tuesday‚ March 19th 2013 SBI 4U INTRODUCTION: The cellular activity of all organisms is controlled through the use of enzymes. An enzyme is a special type of biological molecule‚ usually a protein‚ which speeds up a chemical reaction; most are soluble in water or a dilute salt solution. There are about 4000 different enzymes in a typical living cell. If even one of these enzymes is missing or

Enzymes What Are Enzymes? Substances that speed up chemical reactions are called catalysts. Organic catalysts are called enzymes. Enzymes are specific for one particular reaction or group of related reactions. Many reactions cannot occur without the correct enzyme present. They are often named by adding "ase" to the name of the substrate. Example: Dehydrogenases are enzymes that remove hydrogen. Induced-fit Theory The shape of the enzyme must match the shape of the substrate
Premium Enzyme Catalysis Chemical reaction
Enzyme action is the simple mechanism by which enzymes catalyse chemical reactions. This begins with the binding of the substrate to the active site on the enzyme. The binding of the substrate to the enzyme causes changes in the distribution of electrons in the chemical bonds of the substrate. This then causes the reactions that lead to the formation of products that are then released from the enzyme surface to regenerate the enzyme for another reaction cycle. The active site has a unique shape that

Effects of pH on the Function of Enzymes Rena Mototani Glen Rock High School Advanced Biology 2014-2015 Effects of pH on the Function of Catalase Rena Mototani Problem: How does the pH of a cell affect the function of the enzyme catalase? Introduction In this lab‚ we experimented the effects of pH on the function of the enzyme catalase. Catalase is an enzyme that brings about the reaction by which hydrogen peroxide is decomposed to water and oxygen (Encyclopedia Britannica). The

Enzymes INTRODUCTION Enzymes are protein cells and they are found in the gut. They help to break down the food you eat. Enzymes are produced by living cells and they speed up reactions because they are biological catalysts. If we did not have enzymes‚ the reactions in our cells would be too slow to keep us alive. This means that they are extremely important for our survival. The properties of enzymes are: ⋆ They can be used many times‚ because they can speed up reactions without
