I will measure the volume of gas produced as the catalase in the potato tissue reacts with the hydrogen peroxide to create water and oxygen. I will change the temperature at which the reaction takes place, but to make the test a fair one I will keep the pH level on the solution, the amount and concentration of the solution, and the area and the volume of the potato the same. I will have to take into account the concentration of Catalase in the potato, is this cannot be controlled. Catalase is an enzyme. The purpose of an enzyme is...
of gas escaping or a few seconds difference in the time. Another problem was that I had to conduct the experiment over several days to I was unable to use the same potato and therefore there was a different concentration of catalase in the potatoes. If I was to carry out the experiment again then I would

However I think the evidence I obtained is enough to support the predictions I had made. There are however some anomalous results in the graph and these are at 5 and 2?é??C and I have circled these on the graph.
Background Information ?â?£ There are three main types of Enzymes. These are Carbohydrases, Protease and Lipases. ?â?£ Enzymes can be used over and over again. ?â?£ If the temperature is too low the Substrate Starch has less thermal energy which means that there will be...

The digestive system is used to break down the food that we eat. It is made up of many different organs like the oesophagus, stomach, intestines etc?óÔé¼?ª Digestion starts when food is taken into the mouth. This is called ingestion. The teeth are used to break the food into...

Aim: I am going to investigate how different surface areas, and therefore enzyme concentration, of the same volume of potato affects rate of reaction, when placed in 10ml hydrogen peroxide. Prediction: As the surface area increases, so do the amount of enzymes, which are biological catalysts that...

Prediction I predict that the more catalase used will speed up the reaction rate between the catalase and hydrogen peroxide. On a graph, as the concentration of catalase is increased the rate of reaction will increase forming a series of positively correlated lines, increasing in gradient as the catalase...

How light intensity affects the rate of photosynthesis The aim of my experiment was to determine whether intensity of light would affect the rate of photosynthesis in a plant. To do this, I placed a piece of Canadian pondweed in varying light intensities, and observed the...
