A substrate is a substance in which an enzyme reacts. The substrate for catalase would be hydrogen peroxide otherwise known as H2O2.
The two molecules of hydrogen peroxide : H2O2
A catalyse substrate is an extraordinary substrate that speed up the reaction in a enzyme.
It bonds with hydrogen peroxide.
Hydrogen peroxide
Hydrogen per oxide .

Catalase is an enzyme and enzymes work best with a specific substrate. The enzyme can work with any substrate just not as efficient .
Catalase is an enzyme that is substrate-specific, meaning that it has a particular reaction that it will catalyze (to speed up a reaction). Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is the specific substrate reactant with which catalase will react (in a degradation reaction). This is the degradation (breaking down of) reaction. 2H2O2 yields 2H2O+O2 O2 is oxygen which is indicated by the rising of bubbles upon reaction between the hydrogen peroxide and the catalase. Sucrose is not the specific substrate assigned to the catalase enzyme, therefore they will not react together in a degradation reaction, hence the lack of oxygen release (lack of bubbles). I hope this was helpful to you. God bless and Jesus loves you.
The morphologically similar Enterococcus (catalase negative) and Staphylococcus (catalase positive) can be differentiated using the catalase test.
Catalase. Staphylococci are catalase positive. Streptococci are catalase negative.
Peroxide
Catalase Hydrogen peroxide -----------------> Water + Oxygen.
Is a molecule upon which an enzyme acts. e.g. hydrogen peroxide is the substrate for the enzyme catalase

Because the shape of the active site on catalase only permits it to break down hydrogen peroxide. This is the case for many enzymes such as catalase, although some enzymes can break down more than one substrate.
Temperature, pH, Substrate concentration, Enzyme concentration, Inhibitor concentration (ex. ammonia)
Enzymes that enter a reaction do not change in any way but the substrate does.
Put them all into separate alkaline conditions and then introduce their respective substrate and observe the reaction.
enzymes keep working ( fit to their corresponding substrate) unless they have been denatured. not really too sure though about all of them.
Amylase is an enzyme and, like most enzymes, it will denature when exposed to high temperatures. Denature means to lose its shape and an enzyme such as amylase is dependent on its shape to perform its function.
