the outcome of enzyme activity Introduction In this project I will monitor the rate of activity of Catalase. Catalase is an Enzyme which in the right conditions catalyses the decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide into water and oxygen; 2H2O2 + Catalase >>> 2H2O + O2 Catalase is found in all cells and protects them from Hydrogen Peroxide which is a dangerous waste product that needs to be eliminated. Without Catalase living things could not survive. What are Enzymes? Enzymes are found in the

RESULTS 28⁰C was the optimal temperature. 28⁰C had the maximum rate of reaction for the class data and results provided by this experiment; the results were represented graphically in graph 1 and graph 2. The reason for having 2 tables and graphs is because 28⁰C was done twice. Data for 28⁰C was collected in this experiment and it was collected again by peers in the classroom. Results are identical because all temperatures except 28⁰C was collected once from peers. Based on the results from the

Investigating the effect of changing substrate concentration on the activity of the enzyme catalase The aim of this experiment is to examine how the concentration of a substrate (hydrogen peroxide) affects the rate of reaction of an enzyme catalyse (found in liver cells) Research Question: how does changing the concentration of the substrate affect the rate of reaction of the enzyme catalyse? Hypothesis: As the concentration of the substrate increases‚ so does the rate of reaction until the reaction

M2A1 Temperature Pattern Exercise Ricardo Cortez GEOL 108 EXERCISE 10 PART 1 1. Is the temperature contrast between the equator and the Arctic region greatest in the winter or summer? Answer. Temperature contrast between the equator and the Arctic region is greatest in the winter. Temperatures near or at the equator only change a few degrees between winter and summer while the Arctic region changes drastically up to 40 degrees between the seasons. 2. (a) Were latitude the only

Effect of temperature and humidity on the transpiration rateof the whole mushrooms P.V. Mahajan * ‚ F.A.R. Oliveira‚ I. Macedo Department of Process and Chemical Engineering‚ University College Cork‚ Ireland Abstract Water loss or transpiration is an important physiological process that affects the main quality characteristics of fresh mushrooms‚such as saleable weight‚ appearance and texture. A loss in weight of only 5% may cause fresh produce to lose freshness and appear wiltedand it is an

3.8.3. Effect of temperature of the reaction: The effect of the temperature of the reaction on the activity of the purified enzyme was carried out by make the enzymatic reaction for 10 minutes at different temperature 25‚30‚35‚40‚45‚50‚60 and 70°C using an enzyme protein 0.1mg/reaction mixture and substrate concentration of 15 mg/reaction mixture‚ using a control of previously heated enzyme solution in the reaction. The data recorded in (table 27) and (figure 29) illustrate the effect of temperature

tenderizer did not break down as much as the cup â»3 with the most tenderizer. Conclusion According to this lab it demonstrated that Jell-O does have protein since the enzymes in the meat tenderizer were able to break down the Jell-O and prevent it from setting. This data also shows that the amount of enzymes effects the breakdown of proteins since the cup with the least amount of meat tenderizer set better than the cup with the most amount of meat tenderizerizer CUP NUMBER OBSERVATIONS

INTRODUCTION Enzymes are a protein serving as a catalyst‚ a chemical agent that changes the rate of the reaction without being consumed by the reaction. Enzymes are proteins made up of long chains of amino acids. These form complex shapes. The enzymes are individuals‚ like the different players on a ball team‚ they have different specific structures and jobs. As one ball player may be very tall and one short‚ the specific different shape of the active site on an enzyme is unique and prepares it

Enzyme Controlled Reactions 1) Describe the relationship between substrate concentration and the initial reaction rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. Is this a linear relationship? What happens to the initial reaction rate as substrate concentration increases? A) The relationship between the substrate concentration and the initial reaction of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction is very productive‚ but is dramatically affected by the pH level of the given solution. The most productive pH level is
