One method used to classify protozoa is by their method of?
Movement
What does catalase do to hydrogen peroxide?
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.
What chemical in the stomach begins to denature protein in the stomach?
They are the enzymes . Predominant one is Pepsin
If you have isolated a gram-positive coccus from a throat culture that you cannot identify as staphlycocci or streptococci A test for one enzyme can be used to distinguish quickly between these bacter?
The enzyme catalase is present in staphylococci but not streptococci.
What chemical reaction does the enzyme called catalse facilitate?
Catalase is a common enzyme found in nearly all living organisms exposed to oxygen. It catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen.It is a very important enzyme in reproductive reactions. Likewise, catalase has one of the highest turnover numbers of all enzymes; one catalase molecule can convert millions of molecules of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen each second.The reaction of catalase in the decomposition of living tissue:2H2O2 → 2H2O + O2The presence of catalase in a microbial or tissue sample can be tested by adding a volume of hydrogen peroxide and observing the reaction. The formation of bubbles, oxygen, indicates a positive result. This easy assay, which can be seen with the naked eye, without the aid of instruments, is possible because catalase has a very high specific activity, which produces a detectable response.
In today's experiment what was one method that you used to denature the catalase?
Allow the temperature to go above that catalysts/enzymes operational temperature. e.g. Yeast works at about 37 oC, however, it denatures above 45 oC.
What is the turnover number for catalase?
The turnover number for catalase is extremely high. One molecule of catalase can easily convert 400 million molecules of hydrogen peroxide to H2O.

Movement
How does temperature change the action of enzymes?
The temperature is one of the key factors that can denature an enzyme. When the temperature is too low or two high, the enzyme will denature and not function.
What is the basic difference between catalase and peroxidase?
Catalase is a member of the peroxidase family. Catalase generates water and oxygen while peroxidase generates water and an activated donor molecule. Thus, peroxidase could refer to more than one enzyme.
Does liver contain enyzme?
Yes, one of the enzymes in the liver is catalase.
What does catalase do to hydrogen peroxide?
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.
What is the formula for Copper 1 Peroxide?
Hydrogen peroxide Catalase water 2H2O2 -----------------> 2H2O + O2 THat is the breaking down of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen in the presence of catalase. The actual catalase is the ---->. good luck trying to find that one though. :D
When do you use direct method in statistics?
There are two type of direct method one is used in grouped data and second one used in ungrouped data
Can one cost estimation method can be used in combination with another method?
Yes. True
