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.

Which term describes the example below?A child with no freckles has a mother who has freckles and is heterozygous and a father w
Natali5045456 [20]
It is C as to have freckles you have to have a dominant and recessive gene (can be worked out using a punnett square) as the child has 50% of not having freckles like his dad or 50% having freckles like his mom. 
                     male genes(homozygous recessive)
                     f            f

female    F    Ff           Ff
genes
              f     ff             ff

so ff is not having freckles and being homozygous recessive, or Ff having freckles and being heterozygous.

So the child is heterozygous  so C

What causes leaves to change color in the Fall?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Chlorophyll Breaks Down

But in the fall, because of changes in the length of daylight and changes in temperature, the leaves stop their food-making process. The chlorophyll breaks down, the green color disappears, and the yellow to orange colors become visible and give the leaves part of their fall splendor.
