Temperature and pH on Enzyme Function Chelsie Mesa Section 0479 Robin Cotter Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to identify three unknown enzymes. This is done by using different temperature and pH to affect the function of the enzyme‚ which ultimately‚ will affect how much maltose is produced. Enzymes are proteins that help catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process are called substrates‚ and the enzyme converts them

According to the results in this lab Jell-O must contain protein due to the fact that the meat tenderizer was able to break down the Jell-O much the same as it would break down the proteins in meat. 5. Did the amount of meat tenderizer give different results? The amount of meat tenderizer did give different results‚ cup â»2 with the least amount of 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

Enzyme lab report. Introduction. An enzyme is a protein molecule that speeds up the rates of chemical reactions by many folds. They recognize‚ bind‚ and change specific reactants. They do not change thus can catalyze the same reaction again and again. Activation energy also known as an energy barrier is the amount of energy needed in order to begin a chemical reaction. Catecholase catalyzes the reaction rate of catechol oxidation. Catechol is found beneath the skin of many plants such

Biology Digestive Enzyme Experiment “Design an experiment in which you will investigate a digestive enzyme’s effect on digestion” Research Question: To determine the effect of enzyme concentration on the rate of digestion. This will be done by increasing the concentration of the enzyme diastase and investigate its effect on the rate of starch digestion. The rate will be determined by the amount of time it takes to completely digest the powdered starch‚ the complete digestion will be indicated by

The effect of time on enzyme reaction. Abstract: In this lab investigation we will observe how the amount of hydrogen peroxide is affected by catalase over time. The enzyme was added to 10 mL’s of hydrogen peroxide and observed over time to determine the relation between time and enzyme activity. The hypothesis stated that as time increased substrate would decrease. Therefore I predicted that at 60 seconds‚ there would be the least amount of H2O2. The enzyme activity mirrored my predictions

Hypothesis: the higher the concentration of hydrogen peroxide the faster the reaction will occur and the more foam will be produced. Aim: The aim of this investigation is to determine how the concentration of hydrogen peroxide effects the intensity of the reaction. Variables: Independent- The concentration of hydrogen peroxide. Dependant - The intensity of the reaction. Constants – The temperature‚ the amount of liver‚ pH level‚ test time‚ Materials: Solutions of hydrogen peroxide varying

Enzyme Reaction to Variable Elizabeth Alvidrez University of Texas at El Paso Abstract: An enzyme is a protein that serves as a biological catalyst (Denniston‚ 2007). Metabolic reactions happen with in cells. Enzymes are proteins that are used to speed up these reactions without being consumed by them (Mader‚ 2010). Catalase is a catalyst that digests potent hydrogen peroxide and converts it into H2O and O (Campbell Reese‚ 2008). The environment plays an important role

Effecting the Reaction Rate in Enzymes in Plants and Animals Problem- How do variables temperature and surface area affect the rate of reaction occurring in the enzyme? Information- Enzymes are proteins that act as biological catalysts. They speed up chemical reactions that take place in cells. Enzymes can be found in both liver and potato. They provide a site where reactants can be brought together to react. These reactants are called substrates that fin into the enzyme. The changing of heat‚
