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.

What is meant by the unexpected consequences of environmental manipulation?
belka [17]
Environmental manipulation of a crop can not only have unexpected consequences, but also have a negative impact on the atmosphere as well. The crops produced might be of inferior quality than expected. The amount of crop that grows can also be less. More water might be needed for the crops to grow.
