    determining the effects of pH on enzyme activity show that as the independent variable‚ pH‚ increases the dependent variable‚ percentage transmission‚ decreases. This is shown in the results as at the lowest pHpH 4.0 the average percentage transmission is at its highest at 97%. At the highest pHpH 8.0 the average transmission is 78.5%. This is also supported from the graph as it produces a negative gradient showing that as the percentage transmission will decrease with an increasing pH. This happens because

    Distinction of pH levels of Orange Juice and Milk of Magnesia in comparison to Distilled Water Cooper‚ A.‚ Do‚ J.‚ Francois‚ F.‚ Olaleye‚ O. Lab Section LA: 06/20/2012 Introduction pH is the measurement of the concentration of hydrogen ions in a certain solution. Solutions or substances that have a higher concentration of hydrogen ions are considered acidic on the pH scale. Therefore‚ a solution with low concentration of hydrogen ions is basic on the pH scale. The pH scale is a universal means

    Experiment 4 – Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Aim To study the effects of temperature on the activity of amylase enzyme on starch solution. Introduction Enzymes are widely known as biological catalyst. Almost all cellular reactions are controlled and guarded by enzymes. Virtually every metabolic reaction which takes place within a living organisms are catalyzed by enzymes. Enzymes are complex three-dimensional globular proteins. Some of the enzymes are built up off proteins and some

    Rate of Enzyme Activity: Through the Experiment of Beef Liver Puree and Hydrogen Peroxide Research Question Does different amount of substrate affect the rate of enzyme activities? Purpose To examine how different types of concentration (Hydrogen Peroxide) affect the rate of enzyme activity. Hypothesis We believe that if there is more substrate concentrated‚ then there will be an increase in the rate of enzyme activity. This is because we assume the more substrate an enzyme gets

    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

    Abstract The catalysis of enzymes within our bodies is essential for human survival and when this ability is impaired by the presence of Hydrogen ions‚ our cells cannot function properly. This experiment was conducted to determine if the reaction rate changes in response to a variation of acidic‚ neutral‚ and basic solutions. The experimental results indicated that the basic/high pH solution has a faster rate of reaction in the solution. Introduction Enzymes are proteins that catalyze and
