Aim: The aim of the experiment is to test the effect temperature has on the activity of the enzyme rennin. Hypothesis: I believe the rate of reaction will speed up as the temperature increases until it reaches about 37oC‚ which is the body temperature‚ where it will begin to slow down and stop reacting. I believe this will occur because enzymes have a temperature range at which they work best in and once the temperature goes out of this range the enzyme will stop working. Introduction:Enzymes are

Introduction For the last week‚ specific tests had to be applied to determine the unknown solid that was given out randomly. Physical tests‚ solubility test‚ characteristic tests‚ NMR spectrums‚ and IR spectrums were all utilized to distinguish the identity of the solid. These assessments and a couple additional tests will be utilized again to determine the unknown liquid that was given to us in class. The other characteristics that will be looked at will be the boiling point‚ refracted index‚ and

This study focuses on the effect that temperature has on the enzyme amylase. Enzymes are composed of proteins and acts as a catalyst to speed up the rate of a specific chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy. Reactions do not need enzymes to occur‚ but the human body and other living organisms depend on the use of enzymes in order for biochemical reactions to happen in milliseconds. Each enzyme contains a distinct three dimensional structure which is related to its particular function

officially ban. Modern audiences have become accustomed to attitudes‚ language‚ and stories that are political‚ graphic‚ violent‚ and more than just a little bit avant garde. Obviously‚ such was not the case in the blacklisting days of the 1950s! “Salt of the Earth” violated every aspect of the white‚ middle-America‚ conservative mindset of 1954. As a political statement‚ it demonstrated the inter-connection that exists between working class‚ feminist‚ environmental and Latino concerns‚ and yet it

Effects of Temperature and pH on Catalase Activity INTRODUCTION Enzymes are organic catalysts that spur metabolic reactions. The presence of an enzyme within a cell is essential in order for any sort of reaction to take place. All enzymes are complex proteins that act in an organism’s closely controlled internal environment. In such a homeostatic environment‚ the temperature and the pH (concentration of hydrogen ions)‚ remain within a fairly narrow range. Extreme variations in pH and temperature

Case Study : Morton Salt 1. Briefly describe salt production‚ from brine production to finished round cans. Salt is obtained by introducing water into salt caverns which in turn dissolves the salt deposits within the caverns‚ allowing the salt solution (brine) to be brought to the surface for further processing. The brine is boiled in order to remove most of the liquid‚ resulting in salt crystal deposits. The salt crystal deposits are then further dried to remove all residual moisture to produce

Lab #5: Dissolved Oxygen Lab Be sure to read and understand the below instructions BEFORE the lab! Experiment 1: Investigating the Effect of Temperature and Salinity on the Concentration of Dissolved Oxygen in Water Introduction: In an aquatic environment‚ oxygen must be in a solution in a free state (O2) before it is available for use by organisms (bio-available). Its concentration and distribution in the aquatic environment are directly dependent on chemical and physical factors and are
