1. Factors that Affect the Function of an Enzyme Lab Conclusions

2. ● Normal Enzyme Function

3. ● The chicken liver was animal tissue which contained the enzyme called catalase. ● The carrot pieces were plant tissues containing the enzyme called catalase. ●

4. The chemical equation representing the reaction of catalase peroxide water oxygen

5. How did the enzyme named catalase catalyze the reaction? by lowering the activation energy without being changed structurally itself

6. Factors that Affect the Function of an Enzyme Lab Conclusions ● Heat caused changes in the bonding structure of the enzyme, thus denaturing the enzyme and decreasing the reaction rate ● Acid caused changes in the bonding structure of the enzyme, thus denaturing the enzyme and reducing the reaction rate. ● In this experiment heat was a more significant factor in

7. No chemical reaction results when the active site shape is changed by acids or heat

8. What other factors affect the function of an enzyme that we did not measure in this lab? ● Enzyme concentration ● Substrate concentration ● Adding inhibitors
