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

INTRODUCTION Investigations are the processes that will be used to describe both criminal investigation and crime scene processing distinctions between criminal investigations and crime scene. Crime scene requires strict scientific methodologies such as collections procedures and testing protocol‚ whereas criminal investigation has less of hard science character and relies more on the experience and skills of the investigator rather than rigid scientific protocols and procedures. Evidence is a

MATH INVESTIGATION 4.2 FACTORIZATIONS on the Math Investigator determines if a number is prime or composite. If a number is composite‚ it prints all its factors‚ the number of factors‚ and its prime factorization. The numbers 1‚ 2‚ 4‚ and 6 have 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ and 4 factors‚ respectively: 1 has only 1 as a factor; 2 has 1 and 2 as factors; 4 has 1‚ 2‚ and 4 as factors; and 6 has 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ and 6 as factors. These factors are illustrated by the rectangles shown here. Starting Points for Investigations

Title: The Effect of Varying Amounts of Substrate and Enzyme on a Reaction Rate Abstract In living organisms‚ certain reactions must take place rapidly to assist life. This occurs because of enzymes‚ because all reactions would take place too slowly to sustain life (Jacklet‚ 237). Enzymes are large protein molecules that catalyze specific chemical reactions without being used up in the process. Each enzyme has a region on its surface‚ called the active site‚ which recognizes a specific

Investigation on the effects of Temperature‚ pH levels‚ and Enzyme Concentration on the reaction rate of the Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide by Catalase The purpose of this investigation is to figure out how temperature‚ pH‚ and enzyme concentration affect the reaction rate of an enzyme. It’s important to understand how certain factors affect enzymes because of their crucial role in the metabolic processes of life. Enzymes lower the activation energy necessary for a chemical reaction to

COMBUSTION AND FIRE INVESTIGATION There are many different types of fires and it can be quite difficult to establish what may have started the fire in the first place. Fire investigation is an important process that attempts to establish the cause of the fire and whether a criminal act has taken place. The National Fire Statistics in the UK compiled by the Home Office states that 25% of fires are electrical in origin but this does not tell the whole story. The statistics are compiled from fire

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
