    On the biochemical level, enzymes work at precise temperatures and pH levels. When the temperature goes up, enzyme activity speeds up. When temperatures decrease, enzyme activity slows down. If an enzyme is at too high of a temperature, it stops functioning. Stomach enzymes function in a more acidic environment (low pH) and intestinal enzymes work in a more alkaline environment (high pH).…

    The aim of this EEI was to test the effects of temperature on the activity of the enzyme Amylase. Solutions of starch and amylase were held at selected temperatures by various methods of temperature control. Once the solutions reached and maintained the desired temperature they were combined. Samples at timed intervals were then taken and reacted with a reagent to determine the effect the selected temperatures had on the reaction rate of enzyme and substrate. Results indicated that the enzyme functions efficiently at its optimum temperature (50oC) digesting the starch present and that any sign of enzyme function at 70oC is completely nonexistent. In summary the experiments conducted in the EEI succeeded in demonstrating the effects temperature has enzyme activity and just how vital enzymes are for biological life.…
