describe how ph level and temperature can affect the rate of reaction of an enzyme
they can make the reaction rate decrease or increase because when the levels get higher the enzyme can deform.
describe how concentration affects the rate of reaction of an enzyme
concentration can increase the rate of reaction because it affects the speed of an enzyme.
what are things that can denature an enzyme
concentration, ph, temperature
describe lock and key fit
enzymes are specific so only one key (enzyme) can fit with one lock (substrate)
observation def.
what is seen or measured
inference def.
a conclusion based on observation or evidence
hypothesis def.
a prediction that can be tested
controlled experiment def.
compares the results of an experiment between 2 or more groups
experimental group def.
group being tested or receiving treatment
control group
group left alone under normal conditions
independent variable def.
variable that is being tested
