Does the liver break down hydrogen peroxide in the summer or winter?
Vicann
Neither. The body regulates its temperature, and the reactions would not speed up anymore than it was in any season.

Does the human liver break down more hydrogen peroxide in the summer or winter?
The enzyme catalase breaks down hydrogen peroxide in the liver. Seasons do not generally affect the amount of hydrogen peroxide breakdown, because humans regulate their body temperature.
What is the formula when liquid hydrogen peroxide decomposes to liquid water and oxygen gas?
hydrogen peroxide is H2O2 break down occurs 2H2O2 - 2H2O + O2
Does your liver break down more hydrogen peroxide in the summer or winter?
Neither- the body's internal temperature is regulated (homeostasis) so that enzymes can work at their optimum temperature at all times. The external environment doesn't matter (except in the case where a person gets a dangerously high fever or hypothermia)
Why is summer vacation longer than winter break?
Because its the end of the school year
What organelle produces hydrogene peroxide?
The answer to your question is: Peroxisomes.In a cell there there may be two types of digestive organelles, lysosomes or peroxisomes. Lysosomes are the normal digestive organelle found in most cells that are most common in intracellular digestion. Peroxisomes, on the other hand, combine enzymes to break down particles into H2O2, better known as hydrogen peroxide.
Does the human liver break down more hydrogen peroxide in the summer or winter?
The enzyme catalase breaks down hydrogen peroxide in the liver. Seasons do not generally affect the amount of hydrogen peroxide breakdown, because humans regulate their body temperature.
Can an apple break down hydrogen peroxide?
Yes it can. I did it in science class just today, and it works. It happens slowly but it does break down hydrogen peroxide.
Does manganese dioxide catalyze the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide?
Yes manganese dioxide catalyzes the break down of hydrogen peroxide.
What are Peroxisoms?
the proliferators are what the peroxisomes use to help break down the hydrogen peroxide. They do this because hydrogen peroxide is harmuful towards the cell.
Does water turn into hydrogrn peroxIde after a while?
No, Hydrogen Peroxide will eventually turn into water because it will break down from H2O2 into H2O but water will not turn into hydrogen peroxide....
What are peroxisome proliferators?
the proliferators are what the peroxisomes use to help break down the hydrogen peroxide. They do this because hydrogen peroxide is harmuful towards the cell.
Can you break out from skunk odor?
With chemicals involving Hydrogen Peroxide, yes you can.
How do you reduce hydrogen peroxide to water in homely method?
You can decompose hydrogen peroxide into water by adding a few pieces of uncooked diced potato or liver to it. Both potatoes and liver contain enzymes that will break down hydrogen peroxide.
What is the formula when liquid hydrogen peroxide decomposes to liquid water and oxygen gas?
hydrogen peroxide is H2O2 break down occurs 2H2O2 - 2H2O + O2
Which organelle can convert hydrogen peroxide into two harmless products?
Catalase is an enzyme produced by the liver which can break down hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water...Does that answer your question?
What is produced when hydrogen peroxide is broken down?
When two molecules of hydrogen peroxide break down, one molecule of water and one molecule of diatomic oxygen are produced.
What would most likely be the product of H2 plus 02?
Hydrogen and oxygen can for water or hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is unstable, so unless it is stored in a dark container it will break down into water.
