factors affecting enzyme action

Question 1

How do you find change of rate for an enzyme

Answer 1

Step 1 use a tangent line to find the time and change of the curve
Step 2 use the equation change/time

Question 2

What does temp do to enzyme action

Answer 2

As the temp increases so does the rate of enzyme activity

Question 3

What is the effect of ph on enzyme action

Answer 3

Ph alters the charges on the amino acid that make the active site
Depending on the ph it may cause the active site therefore changes shape

Question 4

What is the effect of enzyme concentration on the rate of reaction

Answer 4

When there is low enzyme concentration there is too little enzyme for the active sites where’s as high enzyme concentration has no effect as enough active sites have been filled and is sufficient enough to accommodate the substrate molecules.

Question 5

What is the effect of substrate concentration on the rate of reaction

Answer 5

When there is low substrate concentration there is too little substrate for the enzymes where’s as high substrate concentration has no effect as enough enzymes have been filled and is sufficient enough to accommodate the substrate molecules.
