Enzyme Activity and pH

Biology
1 answer:
sveticcg [70]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

B) After determining the optimum pH, they could vary the temperature of the environment to see if catalase is temperature specific

Enzymes are proteins which catalyze reactions by acting on substrates in order to speed up reactions- like the breakdown of large polysaccharides by amylase. Here, the enzyme catalase facilitates the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and hydrogen. Catalase specificity is affected by pH, temperature and the presence of inhibitors.

In temperatures beyond its optimal range, catalase may undergo changes to its physical structure called denaturation; when denatured, enzymes lose their ability to bind specifically to their substrate -i.e. substrate binding specificity is lost. H2O2 would no longer be able to bind to the active site, and thus would not be broken down.

Why to introduced species thrive and multiply so easily in their new habitats
PolarNik [594]
Actually depends on the species. Take snakes for example. They quickly thrived here in america because they had similar environements over in europe. The warm climate here in florida is perfect for them. They like the heat of the sun the dense foliage and many other good qualities here. Also their are other places that are good as long as they are hot have water and prey and a nice hole they can sleep in they can survive making them very adaptable.
