Investigating the Relationship between Concentration of Sodium Chloride and the Rate of Reaction of Enzyme Amylase Research Question: How will changing the percentage of sodium chloride concentration affect the rate of reaction of enzyme amylase‚ measured using the absorbance of starch and iodine with a spectrophotometer. Introduction: Amylase is an enzyme that is involved in the human digestive process. Found in both the human pancreas and the human saliva‚ amylase breaks down starch into sugar so

Effects on Survivors of Concentration Camps Many people during the 1940s were put into concentration camps‚ and after getting out‚ if they did get out‚ suffered many problems. The stress and torment these people went through was pure murder (Nelken). The humans put into these concentration camps were from many different races‚ and also included the mentally retarded‚ severely handicapped‚ insane‚ and very sick people (Austin). Survivors of concentration camps faced psychological‚ spiritual‚ physical

! Affect of pH on Porcine Pancreatic Alpha-Amylase Activity Introduction Proteins function in a variety of different ways‚ and one of their fundamental tasks is to act as enzymes. Enzymes are extremely important in controlling reaction speed (by initiating and regulating biological activity)‚ cell communication‚ and growth. One particularly significant enzyme is amylase‚ which catalyzes the hydrolysis of alpha glycosidic linkages of amylose‚ starch components‚ and other oligosaccharides (Qian

Date: 14th-15th October Title: The effect of the concentration of hydrogen peroxide on catalase Aim: to examine how the concentration of the hydrogen peroxide affects the rate of reaction Hypothesis: The substrate concentration will determine the rate of reaction. The reaction will increase as the concentration increases‚ but from a certain concentration‚ the rate will maintain the same rate Materials: 3% hydrogen peroxide 6% hydrogen peroxide catalase round metal basin measuring cylinder

Title: The effect of temperature on beet cell membranes. Introduction: 1. Eukaryotic cells are much more intricate than prokaryotic cells. The first thing observed is the assortment of structures in the cytoplasm. The fluid filled region between the nucleus and the plasma membrane. These structures along with the nucleus are the organelles‚ each having a specific function in the cell. The organelles are by membranes divided in proficient sections .The plant cell is made up of a rigid thick wall

Practical Assessment 2 – The effect of substrate concentration on the rate of enzyme activity of Catalase Aim To investigate the effect of substrate concentration (manipulated by increasing concentration of hydrogen peroxide) on the rate of enzyme activity of catalase‚ produced by liver cells‚ on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. Introduction Enzymes are biological catalysts that increase the rates of reactions. In an enzyme-catalyzed reaction‚ the substrate binds to the active site and

The Effect Of Enzyme Concentration On Enzyme Activity The pancreatic duct in individuals who have cystic fibrosis frequently becomes blocked‚ reducing or preventing the release of pancreatic enzymes into the small intestine. The aim of this activity is to investigate the effect of a reduction in enzyme concentration on the rate of reaction‚ in this case the breakdown of protein by protease enzymes. Aim – Milk powder contains a white protein called casein. A white suspension of

PLANNING COURSEWORK- STARCH AND AMYLASE AIM The aim of this coursework is to investigate the effect of temperature change‚ on the rate of hydrolysis of starch catalysed by amylase. PREDICTION I think that as the temperature increases‚ the rate of reaction also increases‚ to a point when it dramatically decreases. On graph 1‚ you will see a sketch of the graph which I expect to be the result of the experiment. SCIENCE REASONING I think my prediction is correct because the rate of
