Sterling Hayden AP Biology Mrs. Proehl 24 November 2014 I. Title Effect of Differing pH‚ Temperature‚ and Enzyme Concentration on Catalase Reaction Rate II. Introduction Enzymes are used to increase the rate of specific reactions in the body. Catalase‚ a specific enzyme‚ speeds the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide‚ a toxic chemical produced by cells in the body‚ into water and oxygen (Cain and others‚ 2010). The oxygen can be observed as bubbles coming from the reaction site. Catalase is found in many living tissues of organisms

Vinegar Titration Lab Procedure: 1.) Obtain ~100 mL of NaOH. Record the molarity on the data table. 2.) Set up a ring stand with a buret. 3.) Place 5mL of vinegar in a 125 mL Erlenmeyer flask. Dilute the vinegar with 25 mL of water and add two drops of phenolphthalein. 4.) Fill the buret with NaOH. Record the initial volume of the buret in your data table. 5.) Titrate the vinegar sample until the first faint pink color does not disappear. 6.) Record the final volume of the buret in your data

Beet Cell Lab Purpose: The purpose of this Lab was to see how much pressure or stress the beet tissue would hold. Hypothesis: I hypothesize that the higher % of the solvent that the higher the colour intensity will be shown on the ph colour scale. The lower the solvent then the less colour shown. Materials: *Test Tubes (4) *Cork Borer *Beets *Water *1% Acetone *50% Acetone *1% Methanol *50% Methanol Procedure: *Cut 4 uniform cylinders of beet using a cork borer with a 5-mm

BIOLOGY LAB REPORT (UNIT 7: ENZYMES) GENERAL Enzymes are protein that acts as catalyst‚ lowering the activation energy need for reactions to progress in cells. The reaction can still occur without the presence of the enzyme‚ but at a much slower rate. The activation energy is the minimum amount of energy need for a chemical reaction to occur‚ yielding from a given set of reactants. In enzymatic reactions‚ we have substrates which are reactants of reaction bound to an enzyme. While an active site

AP BIOLOGY Lab 5 Cellular Respiration Objective: To calculate the rate of CR from the data. To then relate gas production to respiration rate. Then test the rate of CR in germinating versus non-germinating seeds in a controlled experiment and then test the effect of temperature on the rate of CR in the germinating versus non-germinated seeds in a controlled experiment. Analysis: 1. The CR is higher in the germinating peas in the cold water rather than in the beads or non-germinating peas

Abstract Enzyme catalysis was observed in order to analyze how changes in temperature‚ pH‚ enzyme concentration‚ and substrate concentration affected an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. This experiment analyzed the rate of enzyme-catalyzed reactions and observed the correlation between catalase activity and products formed. It was found out that the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction starts off rapidly‚ decreases‚ and levels off or completely stops‚ and can be further affected by environmental factors

Effects of pH on the Function of Enzymes Rena Mototani Glen Rock High School Advanced Biology 2014-2015 Effects of pH on the Function of Catalase Rena Mototani Problem: How does the pH of a cell affect the function of the enzyme catalase? Introduction In this lab‚ we experimented the effects of pH on the function of the enzyme catalase. Catalase is an enzyme that brings about the reaction by which hydrogen peroxide is decomposed to water and oxygen (Encyclopedia Britannica). The
