Is catalase present soaked peas?
yes catalase is present in soaked peas. water absorption does not affect the enzyme activity.
How does the time require for the bubbles to stop reflect the amount of catalase activity in the solutions?
The longer it takes for the bubbles to stop forming, the more catalase there is present, assuming that there is enough peroxide (H2O2) to keep the catalase going.
What product of catalase reaction causes bubbling?
Oxygen is the product of the catalase reaction causes bubbling. pH is varied when testing the effect of pH on enzyme activity.
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.
Does slow muscle fibers or fast muscle fibers have a higher catalase concentration?
Fast muscle fibers have the greater metabolic activity and have the higher concentration of catalase enzyme.
Why does the catalase work the best at basic solution?
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?
Do animal cells have more catalase than plant cells?
Catalase is indeed found in all living things. It is a common enzyme that is found in tissue of organisms.
What is the difference between bacillus and clostridium?
Bacillus and Clostridium are both Gram positive, spore forming, bacilli (rods).Bacillus sp. are aerobic.Clostridium sp. are anaerobic.After performing a catalase activity test, Clostridium will be negative and Bacillus will be positive for catalase activity.
What effect does boiling the plant material on catalase activity?
it will be heavier and it will turn different colors. Also it will decrease the rate
Are Chryseobacterium Catalase plus or Catalase negative?
Catalase +
Why the streptococcus species that are catalase negative are capable of growth in the presence of oxygen?
Streptococci are facultative anaerobes. They have the superoxide distumate to stimulate O2 which breaks down superoxide. This allows them to tolerate O2 in the absence of catalase activity.
Is kcat value of catalase extremely high compared to other enzymes?
yes
