The Effect of Concentration‚ pH and Temperature on Enzyme Activity Biology For Majors October 4‚ 2012 Abstract We examined the reaction an enzyme has when its concentration‚ pH and temperature are altered. In order to do this‚ we added different levels of pH into different test tubes with the enzyme (sucrose)‚ and substrate (sucrose)‚ and we then inverted the tube. The higher pH produced more enzyme activity. Temperature effects enzyme activity by decreasing its stability when the temperature

professor! I chose to discuss topic 2 this week. The topic is Discuss how buffers help to regulate body pH. The pH level in the blood is maintained by the kidneys and the lungs. The pH level on the blood should be at 7.4. In order for the kidneys and lungs to maintain this pH level it affects the buffers in the blood. The buffer is a substance that is resistant to the change in the body’s pH level. Basically the buffers can make an acid or base less potent and try and neutralize it so the body is

College General Biology I Enzymes‚ test for effect of pH on catalase activity Purpose The main purpose of this experiment was to learn about enzymes and how to test for the effect of pH on catalase activity and to be able to tell if a reaction is an exergonic or endergonic process. Introduction Enzymes are made from amino acids‚ which are made from proteins. In order to make an enzyme‚ hundreds of amino acids are strung together in a very specific and unique order and eventually is folded

Experiment 1 : Design and preparation of buffers effective at different pHs Abstract The body uses natural buffers to maintain the many different pH environments in our body. This is important for optimum activity of our enzymes. When doing experiments in vitro using these enzymes it is important to mimic intracellular conditions using artificial buffer systems in order to obtain accurate results. In this experiment the buffering properties of three artificial buffer systems containing acetic

AbstractDifferent pH level may affect the growth and development of the plants. Certain key words include: pH level‚ germination‚ acidity‚ osmosis and diffusion. This experiment examines the effects of different pH level of vinegar on the growth of bean plants. Materials used in this experiment consist of: water (pH 6)‚ vinegar with the pH level of 3‚ 4 and 5 (each one were made before experiment)‚ beans‚ soil‚ and pots. Eight bean plants were planted‚ two were watered with pH 6 and the other ones

Investigation on Effects of Different pH on Enzyme Activity How does the different pH buffers affect activity of potato enzyme/extract? Introduction: Proteins are polymers that are made up of smaller units/monomers called amino acids. There are 20 different types of amino acids‚ thus make up many different combinations in types‚ numbers of amino acids as well as their orders – an explanantion for why there are so many proteins. Every protein‚ due to various reactions of amino acids to each

EFFECT OF A FACTOR AFFECTING VITAMIN C IN FRUIT JUICES WHAT IS THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON VITAMIN C IN FRUIT JUICES? The purpose of this experiment is to determine if the difference in temperature will damage vitamin C in any type of fruit juices. Five different temperatures of fruit juices will be used(5‚ 22‚ 50‚ 70‚ 90) degree Celsius to see how temperature affects the loss of vitamin C in fruit juices. The amount of vitamin C in the fruit juices will then be recorded to see if an increase in

Factors affecting Enzyme Activity: The effect of pH on enzyme activity Background Knowledge: An enzyme is a biological catalyst – which speeds up the reaction rate‚ without itself getting altered. Enzymes are proteins with long polypeptide chains that are folded up into three – dimensional shapes. An enzyme acts on a substrate to convert the substrate into a product useful for the organism.The active site is a special region on the surface of the enzyme where the substrate binds to the enzyme.
