    How does temperature affect the rate of reaction for Lipase? As the temperature increases‚ so will the rate of enzyme reaction. However‚ as the temperature exceeds the optimum the rate of reaction will decrease. I predict that at temperatures above 70°C the enzyme lipase will become denatured and at temperatures below 10°C the enzyme will become inactive. Since lipase operates within the human body I’d also predict that its optimum temperature would be around human body temperature which is approximately

    The affect of temperature on the rate of movement of woodlice Aim: The aim of this experiment is to establish whether a change in temperature affects the rate in which woodlouse move. I measured the rate by timing the woodlouse to move a set distance of 20cm‚ and altered the surrounding temperature by submerging a clear tube in water with different temperatures controlled by a water bath. Research: It is to be believed there over 3000 different species of woodlice‚ a total of 42 species

    Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a partially permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration‚ in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.[1][2][3] It may also be used to describe a physical process in which any solvent moves‚ without input of energy‚[4] across a semipermeable membrane (permeable to the solvent‚ but not the solute) separating two solutions of different concentrations.[5] Although osmosis does

    Effect of Temperature on Peroxidase Ability to Break Down H2O2 By: Rodneika Crutcher Abstract Temperature affects the ability of peroxidase to break down hydrogen peroxide. In this experiment our professor extracted peroxidase from potato tissue. In order to determine how temperature affects peroxidase we created solutions and measured their absorbance levels after water bath treatments. The more absorbent the solution was the less hydrogen peroxide there was in the solution. This means the peroxidase

    significant physiological effects on your body--one being its direct effect on your heart rate. Features Once consumed‚ caffeine enters your blood from the stomach and small intestine and begins to stimulate your central nervous system. Caffeine stimulates receptors located in cells within your heart to increase your heart rate. Effects of this stimulation speed up your blood flow because of an increase in heart rate‚ as well as an increase in blood sugar‚ urine production and body temperature. Function
