Catalase is.

it is an enzyme located in the liver that breaks down poisonous hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen ( 2 H2O2 -----> 2 H2O + O2) and it is estimated to catalyse around 38 million molecules of hydrogen peroxide per second!

At which enzyme concentration is starch hydrolyzed the fastest and slowest?

Starch hydrolysis is fastest at an optimal enzyme concentration where substrate and enzyme are present in appropriate proportions for efficient catalysis. Below this concentration, the reaction rate will be slower due to limiting enzyme availability. Above this concentration, the reaction rate may decrease due to substrate saturation or enzyme inhibition.


At which enzyme concentration was starch hydrolysed the fastest?

The rate of starch hydrolysis is typically fastest at an optimal enzyme concentration, which varies depending on the specific enzyme and conditions. Generally, increasing enzyme concentration increases the rate of starch hydrolysis until a saturation point is reached, where all substrate molecules are engaged with enzymes. Beyond this saturation point, additional enzyme does not significantly enhance the reaction rate. Therefore, the fastest hydrolysis occurs at the optimal enzyme concentration just before saturation.
