In fact it doesn't 'produce' more catalyse
By grinding up the liver, you are producing small bits of liver and therefore have more surface area. Hence providing more surface area = more opportunities for to the catalyse to go to work.
It's all about surface area to volume ratio.
The More surface area you have to volume ratio, the quicker the reaction.
(smaller bits of grind up liver, will produce a quicker reaction)
and vise versa.
What else can I help you with?
Which substance contains more catalase liver or potato?
Potatos are more planted than the other one.
Why liver cells give more oxygen than potato cells for catalase reaction?
the liver has more enzymes that the potato (a starch) does.
What happens to crushed liver when in peroxide?
When liver tissue is crushed and exposed to hydrogen peroxide, the enzyme catalase in the liver reacts with the peroxide, breaking it down into water and oxygen. This reaction produces bubbles of oxygen gas and can be used to demonstrate the presence of catalase in living tissues.
Where is catalase found apart from the liver?
Catalase is also found in potatoes
How can you increase the rate of catalase reaction by using the same size liver?
You can increase the rate of catalase reaction by increasing the surface area of the liver. This can be achieved by cutting the liver into smaller pieces or blending it into a paste. Breaking the liver into smaller pieces exposes more catalase enzymes to the substrate, leading to an increase in the rate of the reaction.
Is there catalase in boiled liver?
Not if you boiled it well. Liver does contain catalase, but boiling permanently denatures most proteins. Whatever catalase was in the liver before boiling will probably be denatured and non-functional after boiling.
Why does fresh liver react better in H2O2 then boiled liver?
It all has to do with catalase. Catalase is an enzyme and a biological catalyst in the decomposition of H2O2. When its fresh, catalase is still present in the liver. However, when the liver is boiled, the catalase enzyme is denatured (as it is a protein).
Does liver contain enyzme?
Yes, one of the enzymes in the liver is catalase.
What were the differences between the reactions of fresh liver and potato cubes in hydrogen peroxide?
Fresh liver contains the enzyme catalase, which breaks down hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water, leading to bubbling. Potato cubes do not contain catalase and therefore do not produce bubbles when exposed to hydrogen peroxide. This difference in reaction is due to the presence or absence of catalase enzyme in the tissues.
What is a food source of the enzyme catalase?
Carrots, patatoes, and liver are good sources of enzyme catalase
How can increase the rate of catalase reaction by using the same liver?
To increase the rate of catalpas reaction by using the same liver is simple. It is the biological catalyst that alters the rate of reaction that changes itself.
Why is catalase abundant in animal liver?
Catalase is abundant in animal liver because it plays a crucial role in breaking down hydrogen peroxide, a harmful byproduct of metabolism, into water and oxygen. The liver is responsible for many detoxification processes in the body, and catalase helps protect liver cells from oxidative damage caused by the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide.
