Factors which Affect the Activity of the Enzyme Catalase Purpose: Must include: background information about concepts involved in the lab‚ statement of purpose of the lab identification of independent and dependent variables. A hypothesis is often not necessary or appropriate. Enzymes are proteins that speed up chemical reactions in cells. They break down molecules called substrates. Each enzyme has only one substrate that it breaks down. Enzymes are produced in the cells of the body

Ye Tao BISC220-13155 The Effect of Temperature on the Digestion of Starch by Activity of Enzyme α-Amylase: Observation of Rate of Starch Disappearance through Iodine Test Introduction An enzyme is a type of protein that‚ through its own structure including hydrogen bonds‚ acts like a biological catalyst and is able to accelerate the biochemical reaction rate by lowering the activation energy of the whole process‚ without which cells could hardly practice any physiological functions within human

To investigate the effect of temperature on an enzyme controlled reaction Introduction and planning For the investigation of enzymes‚ I am going to conduct an experiment to see how temperature can affect the rate of reaction of enzymes by testing it with starch. The enzyme that we are going to use is called amylase. We are going to test this enzyme with starch. By mixing amylase and starch solutions together under different temperature conditions‚ we can record the rate of reaction by taking a

Introduction Enzymes are proteins produced by living organisms to speed up the rate in which chemical reactions occur. This process can happen fast‚ slowly‚ or stop the chemical reaction all together depending on the temperature‚ pH and concentration. Catalase is one of the most common enzymes. It is found in living organisms and is used to break down hydrogen peroxide. This must happen because hydrogen peroxide is considered toxic to cells in the body. However‚ when catalase is used it breaks

Meerra Gandi‚ Erin Barody‚ Samantha Gutcho Title: The Effect of Adjusted Concentration of Hydrogen Peroxide on the change in reaction rate of liver catalase. Hypothesis: Null Hypothesis: If the concentration of the Hydrogen Peroxide is changed then there would be no change in the reaction rate. Alternate Hypothesis 1: I there is an increase in concentration in concentration of Hydrogen Peroxide then the reaction rate of the liver catalase will increase. Alternate Hypothesis 2: If there is an increase

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

Physiology Enzyme Lab Report Introduction The chemical reaction that is being studied is the hydrolysis of starch. The enzyme that is being studied is amylase. This experiment is looking at the effect of temperature on the rate of the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch. My hypothesis is that the higher the temperature the faster the hydrolysis of the starch would occur. The rationale behind this is that heat is a form of energy and would

DIGESTIVE ENZYMES AND THEIR FUNCTIONS Mouth -the oral cavity or the mouth contains salivary glands that secrete a wide range of enzymes to aid the first step of metabolism of food. The salivary gland secretes the enzyme lysozyme which has an antibacterial action. The enzymes secreted by the mouth mainly provide protection against bacteria. Betaine helps to maintain a fluid balance inside the mouth. The lists of digestive enzymes secreted by the oral cavity are mentioned in the table. Enzymes | Function
