between 35 and 40 degrees
it works the best at 37 degrees then after that it stops working .it doesn't work when it gets too cold. im doing an experiment on it now!
every enzyme has specific optimum temperatures and pH. 1. The pH is very specific even a minor change of .5 will cause the enzyme to denature. 2. The temperature is less specific all enzymes will work below the optimum temperature but the reaction will be slower. Above the optimum temperature the enzyme will denature. Note the optimum temperature of the human body is around 37.5 degrees C and the optimum pH is around 7.3.
Increased temp give increased reaction rate. Only an approximation, but 10 degrees is said to double the rate.
Enzymes work best at the optimum pH of 7.0. The addition of sulfuric acid causes the pH to become lower and this deactivating the enzyme. This change in pH can cause the side chains of an amino acid to change in its charge which can result in a change of protein. This can greatly alter the reaction that was to take place.
The optimal pH for trypsin is 8. It is found in the small intestine and digests proteins and polypeptides there.
Every enzyme works at its maximum rate at a specific temprature called as optimum temprature for that enzyme. AND all enzymes work at their maximum rate at narrow range of pH, called as optimum pH. A slight increase or decrease in pH causes the retardation in enzyme activity or blocks it completely.

The optimum pH of catalase is 10. At low pH values, the protein may denature or change its structure. this may affect the enzymes ability to recognize a substrate or it may alter its polarity within a cell.
The optimum pH for human catalase is approximately 7, and has a fairly broad maximum (the rate of reaction does not change appreciably at pHs between 6.8 and 7.5). It doesn't work as well above 7.5 or below 6.8.
Catalase is an enzyme and enzymes work best with a specific substrate. The enzyme can work with any substrate just not as efficient .
That they work best in the right pH and temperature they were made to work in. Amylase works best in the mouth's pH of about 7, while pepsin works best at a much lower and acidic pH.
Enzymes in the human body work best at human body temperature, so about 35-40 degrees (Celsius). A lower temperature would have too low of an effect to be able to sustain life, and a higher temperature causes the enzyme to denature (unravel) and be rendered ineffective.
Details: Hey guys. So I conducted an catalase activity experiment at school.We measured the speed of catalase activity on the disassembling of H2O2 solution. The independent variable was pH level, and the levels were 4, 6, and 10. The internet says that the catalase works best pH 7, but ironically, the catalase worked the best at pH10 in my experiment. Now I have to write Claim-Evidence-Reasoning, but I can't think of an appropriate reasoning because the result was different from what is on the internet. Can anyone explain why the catalase worked best at pH 10?
Yes, it functions better at cooler temperatures. Hot temperatures cause it to fail to work.
Enzymes generally work within a given temperature range. As the temperature is increased the activity will increase. However if the optimum temperature is surpassed, the enzymes will stop working.
They do not work as they effectively change shape and so cannot perform their allocated task
digestive,nervous,ciculatory integumenyary systems work together maintain optimum body temperature
