What are the two factors that effect the efficiency of an enzyme?
pH and Temperature both impact the enzyme's function.
What is varied when tested the effect of pH enzyme activity?
The pH is varied to effect, by its affect, this test.
What is the effect of pH upon the relative enzyme activity?
Different enzymes work best at different pH. This is refered to as the ideal pH for the enzyme. For example, the digestive enzyme trypsin works best at an acidic pH while alkaline phosphatase works best at a basic pH. Therefore, enzyme activity varies with pH and this variation depends on the enzyme being studied
What must be held constant when testing the effect enzyme concentration on enzyme activity?
temperature,pH and substrate concentration
How does heat effect pH level?
Heating pure water the pH decrease.

The ability of an enzyme to catalyze a reaction is not affected by?
excess cofactor
Explain the effect of pH on pepsin in terms of the active site of the enzyme?
nothing
What two internal body conditions effect enzyme activity?
temperature and pH
What must be held constant when testing the effect enzyme concentration on enzyme activity?
temperature,pH and substrate concentration
How does heat effect pH level?
Heating pure water the pH decrease.
How does pH levels effect an enzyme?
All enxymes work at an optimum pH. Changes in pH levels could change the rate at which the enzymes work by denaturing them.
What modifications of conditions would be appropriate if the enzyme were to be used?
Physiological conditions, such as correct pH and heat in which the enzyme is able to function correctly, are required.
What are the four factors that effect enzyme activity?
temperature, pH, concentration of enzymes, and concentration of substrates.
