    Dana Calderone Responses of Enzyme Activity from pH and Concentration Abstract Enzymes are the key to many of the chemical reactions that our bodies depend on to live. Without enzymes‚ we would not exist. These biological catalysts speed up the reactions as well as reduce the amount of activation energy needed to complete the process. Knowing how important enzymes are to us‚ it is important to realize what they require to function. They need select conditions and rates to work right. These conditions

    Explain the use of enzymes in food production by means of examples. You must include the example of lactase. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of chemical reactions (up to a million times) in living organisms. Acting as catalysts they are not consumed nor altered in the process of converting the specific set of reactants into specific products. In food production‚ enzymes are greatly appreciated by their accelerated effect in biochemical processes and are mostly used in what we

    concentrations; that test the reaction rates of the enzyme catalase over a fixed period of time. The major conclusion was that catalase reacts faster in warm temperatures that are neither freezing nor boiling‚ catalase performs well in lower concentrations than the substrate‚ and catalase prefers neutral pH levels around 7. Introduction Enzymes are proteins that catalyze metabolic reactions vital for the survival and functioning of cells [1]. Without enzymes‚ metabolic processes would occur at unfeasible

    Name : Andi Nadya Amanda Period : 4 Grade : 11 Enzyme Lab Report Question How heats effect the length of reaction time of an enzyme? Hypothesis I think the heat will make the length of reaction time of an enzyme become slowly. Heat is one of a way to denature the substrate. It means the heat will break down the structure of substrate in order the reaction of enzymes that we activated into it become slowly. Method for Collecting Data First I will record the length of reaction time

    Investigating the effects of changing temperature on the activity of enzymes Background information: Renin is an enzyme that catalyses the coagulation of milk. It is found in the stomach of many animals and is used in making cheeses and junkets. It is found in the gastric juices or gastric mucosa of many mammals‚ including humans. In the human stomach‚ particularly those of infants‚ rennin works to curdle milk so that pepsin‚ another stomach enzyme‚ can further breakdown the proteins into absorbable amino

    Enzymes are responsible for multiple reactions that take place naturally in the living organisms. The purpose of the enzymes lab was to investigate how the enzymes play a role in a reaction‚ affecting the rate of reaction (ROR). Interestingly‚ we tested how the enzymes affect the reaction rate at multiple temperatures (0‚ 23‚ 37‚ 50‚ 70‚ and 95 C). It was predicted that an increase in temperature will elevate the thermal activity of substrate which increases the chances the substrate molecules will

    ENZYME COFACTORS AND INHIBITORS 1. DESCRIBE THE GENERAL ROLE OF COFACTORS IN ENZYME ACTIVITY. Some chemicals enhance an enzyme’s activity‚ which is what cofactors function to do. They are a non-protein component of an enzyme and may be organic molecules (called coenzymes) or inorganic ions. 2. (A) NAME FOUR HEAVY METALS THAT ARE TOXIC TO HUMANS. Four heavy metals that are toxic to humans are: 1. Cadmium (Cd) 2. Lead (Pb) 3. Mercury (Hg) 4. Arsenic (As) (B) EXPLAIN IN GENERAL TERMS WHY THESE

    Lambda DNA with restriction enzymes. Aim: The objectives of this experiment are: Become more familiar with using micropipettes. Use restriction enzymes to cut DNA at specific sites. Use Ligase to rejoin some of the cut/separated DNA fragments. Learn to separate DNA using electrophoresis. Introduction: Restriction enzymes are proteins which cut dsDNA at specific regions depending on the enzyme used‚ determined by the nucleotide sequence of the DNA‚ i.e. each enzyme recognises specific nucleic

    Enzymes and ATP Enzymes act as protein catalysts in biochemical processes Enzymes bind to a substrate and forms the enzyme substrate complex. Enzymes work by lowering the energy of activation. Activation energy must be supplied for the reaction to begin‚ once supplied‚ the reaction can proceed on its own. Enzymes can speed up events. They are not used by during the reaction because the enzyme stays the same‚ it does not change during the reaction. (Hudon-Miller‚ Enzymes‚ 2013) Enzymes act as

    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 is carried out to find the
