Increase in temperature speeds up the the rate of enzymes catalyzed reactions but only to a point .Every enzymes work at its maximum rate at a specific temperatures called as OPTIMUM TEMPERATURE for that enzyme

∙ 15y agoThe temperature at which an enzyme produces the highest reaction rate for a specific reaction. If the temperature is increased or decreases then the tertiary structure is altered by breaking old and folming new atractions. This change changes the shape of the active site and so the substrate cannot fit as easily and the reaction rate will decrease.

So the optimal environment for, say, a whale would be:
* plenty of clean ocean with the right salinity and temperature,
* no pollution or plastic garbage,
* good supplies of krill for feeding,
* no predators (whaling fleets),
* no noise pollution or sonar noise from navy ships that might drive their navigation systems askew and send them up onto a beach, and
* not too many ecotourists buzzing them in little boats and getting too close to them and their calves.

What growth temperature is the temperature at which an organism exhibits the highest growth rate?
optimal
Give the substrate of enzyme maltase?
maltose, its products are glucose, the organ it is used in is duodenum, its optimal pH is 6.1-6.8, and its optimal temperature is 35-40 degrees Celsius.
In what ways could you adjust incubation temperature to grow an orgainsm at less than its optimal growth rate?
lower it below or raise it above the the optimum temperature
Is temperature a factor that affects enzyme activity?
yes. at low temperature enzymes won't work as effectively, and at high temperature enzymes are denatured.
What is the optimal temperature of bromelin?
Bromelain is stable up to about 60 degrees centigrade. The stable pH for bromelain is about 3 to 6 and is usually alkaline.
Which description best explains the patterns of temperature effects shown?
each enzyme has it own optimal temperature range.
What is the temperature of a person's body?
Optimal temperature is 37 degrees Celsius.
What is the optimal temperature for papaya?
it is about in the eightys or higher
Is the optimal pH of tryspin acidic or basic?
Basic. Trypsins have an optimal operating pH of about 8(and optimal operating temperature of about 37°C)
What growth temperature is the temperature at which an organism exhibits the highest growth rate?
optimal
What temperature does lipase work best at?
Optimal temperature for Lipase is 37 degrees.
What is the optimum temperature of small intestine?
the optimal temperature of the small intestines is 37.
155 Celsius is the optimal temperature?
As 155C is the same as 311F, it sounds a bit hot for optimal anything
Enzymes have optimal temperatures.most human enzymes have an optimal temperature of about?
The optimal temperature of enzymes in humans is about 37c, the same as the human body's temperature. However, some enzymes work at higher temperatures than 37 but not very high because higher temperatures denatures (destroy) the enzymes.
What is the optimal temperature for yeast to ferment and metabolise?
Room Temperature (26o - 28o C)
What is the optimal storage temperature range for the RSDL?
40F to 86F
What is the temperature for a chicken egg to hatch?
100.5 degrees is optimal ambient temperature with a humidity if 60%
