Turnip Peroxidase Lab Report

839 Words4 Pages

Methods of Data Collection Measuring the independent variable: The pH (the independent variable) is being tested on the turnip peroxidase to observe the reaction rates. 5 levels of pH are required for these series of reactions so pH buffers of 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 are to be placed in each of the waters that will be put into the cuvettes for the experiment. Measuring the dependent variable: A colorimeter must be used in order to calculate the reaction rate/absorbance level of the turnip peroxidase when the different pH levels affect it. The colorimeter can be used to measure the transfer of heat to or from an object. The colorimeter must be set to the correct wavelength setting. In this experiment, the wavelength must be set to blue so it can …show more content…

The three things that can cause the enzyme to denature is a large change in pH level, High Temperature, and substrate concentration. According to our knowledge, we know that a large change in pH will cause instability in the protein structure thus resulting in denaturation of the enzyme. From the data, we can see that pH 3 (total:6.3) and 10 (total:6.2) were the slowest because pH 3 is probably the highest acid and pH 10 is the highest base. The highest acid or base pH represents a large change which would cause the enzyme to denature. The fastest pH was 6 (total:34.5), and it seems that there wasn’t a large change which resulted in a stable structure.

Independent Variable amount of substrate (sucrose) present 3. Controlled Variables temperature, pH, sucrase + sucrose incubation time 4. Describe what is measured as an indicator of sucrase activity and why this is an indicator of sucrase activity. I believe glucose and fructose was used as an indicator because they are what produces sucrose and sucrose creates more sucrase activity.

Fill each cuvettes with its respective solution. Turn on the spectrophotometer, so it can warm up then calibrate it to 0% absorbance. Put the corresponding extract blank and set the spectrophotometer to 100% transmittance, then calibrate it to 540 nm. Once catechol is added in the cuvettes, make sure the solution is mixed. Place carrot cuvette in the spectrophotometer and record the resulting transmittance.

It was hypothesized that the optimal pH for the enzyme was pH 7 while the 1.0 ml peroxidase would have the best reaction rate. At the end of the experiment the results prove the hypothesis to be incorrect. INTRODUCTION Enzymes are proteins that allow a reaction to speed up. These proteins are made up of monomers known as amino acids.

Restate your predictions that were correct and give the data from your experiment that supports them. Restate your predictions that were not correct and correct them, giving the data from your experiment that supports the corrections. At the end of this experiment, it showed that I was right. Sucrase activity was at its optimal at ph6 and at 40 Celsius. The graph above shows my prediction of pH is correct but my temperature prediction is slightly off since I said it would be at 50 Celsius.

The purpose of this lab was to find out what the strongest tissue of the three brands my group tested. My group 's hypothesis w.as, if different amounts of weight is put on three different brands of tissues, then the Kleenex will stay the strongest, because this brand is more advertised. The experiment concluded that Up & Up was the strongest at 28 pennies, Kleenex was the second strongest at 9 1/2 pennies, while Darnix came in last place at 5 pennies.

Because carbon dioxide is absorbed by the plant during photosynthesis less carbon dioxide present in the chamber is a sign that photosynthesis is working. The four lights used for this experiment range across the light spectrum on both sides in order to test a wider variety of wavelengths. All lights will be placed directly on the spinach leaf at the same distance so as not to give any spinach leaf a different light intensity, which could affect the data. This experiment will be able to show which light, ranging across the light spectrum, will allow the Spinach to perform photosynthesis more efficiently.

For the step test, the heart rate of both participants served as the dependent variable, whereas, the independent variable was the level of training. During the experiment, the group performed 4 replications. Both participants for treatment #1 and #2 took their pulse rates prior to the test and recorded the results. At the end of 3 minutes, both participants took their pulse

Predict/ roughly determine the Vmax and ½ Vmax values from the peak of the graph, where the slope of the graph levels off (the asymptotical line). Predict/ roughly determine the Km by reading off of the graph the corresponding substrate concentration on the x-axis for the ½ Vmax value. Plot a Lineweaver-Burke graph (the inverse of the velocity of the reaction vs. the inverse of the substrate concentration). Calculate accurate Vmax and Km values using the following equation for the Lineweaver-Burk

5 water bath were set up each to10 °C. (5 were used do the experiment faster) 5 cm3 of starch solution were added into the 5 test tubes that were labeled test tubes. Then 5 cm3 of amylase enzyme was added into the other 5 test tubes that were labeled. Put one of the starch solution test tube (preferably the one labeled 1) and one of the test tube containing amylase into the water bath (10 °C).
