Explain how temperature has an affect on the rate of reaction. |
|
|
Explain how temperature has an affect of the enzyme itself. |
|
|
What is the optimum temperature of most enzymes in a human? |
37°C. |
|
What is the temperature coefficient (Q10)? How does it work? |
|
|
All enzymes have an optimum pH value. What pH do most human enzymes work best at? Name an exception to this. |
|
|
What effect does pH have on an enzyme itself? |
|
|
Explain how enzyme concentration affects the rate of reaction. What could limit the rate of reaction when looking at this variable? |
|
|
Explain how substrate concentration affects the rate of reaction. What could limit the rate of reaction when looking at this variable? |
|
|
What happens to substrate concentration as the reaction progresses and how does this affect the rate of reaction? What point in the reaction has the highest rate of reaction? |
Substrate concentration decreases during a reaction (unless more is added), this results in a decrease in rate of reaction over time. This makes the initial rate of reaction the highest. |
