Enzymes work best at around body temperature. It the temperature is too cold then the enzyme activity slows down to almost zero. The activity of the enzyme steadily increases to a temperature of around 50 to 55 oC depending on the enzyme. After that temperature the enzyme is denatured and ceases to function. At 45 oC the enzyme is most likely still functioning but is close to the temperature where it will be destroyed.

Is 30 degrees celsius below zero?

No, 30 degrees Celsius is 86 degrees Fahrenheit.


What most likely happens to the rate of reaction of a human enzyme when the temperature is increased gradually from 10 degrees Celsius to 30 degrees Celsius?

The rate of reaction of a human enzyme typically increases as the temperature rises from 10 to 30 degrees Celsius due to increased kinetic energy, leading to more collisions between enzyme and substrate molecules. However, beyond the optimum temperature range, denaturation may occur, causing a decrease in enzyme activity.


What does enzyme do between o degrees c and 30 degrees c?

What enzyme? There are several. I am pretty sure they don't all react the same.


What does 30 degrees Fahrenheit below zero equals in Celsius?

30 degrees Fahrenheit below zero is equal to approximately -34.4 degrees Celsius.


What have effect on enzyme?

The major thing that has an effect on an enzyme is heat. If the enzyme is exposed to a large amount of heat than it denatures, which means that it is no longer functional. Enzymes work at their best at an OPTIMUM range, that is at about 30-35 degrees Celsius. The enzyme will denature at about 47-50 degrees Celsius.


Are you more likely to swim at 30 degrees celsius or 30 degrees Fahrenheit?

Well since 30 degrees Fahrenheit would be below the freezing point of water, I'd have to say 30 degrees Celsius.

-30 degrees Celsius = -22 degrees Fahrenheit


What might happen to a liquid with a freezing point of 32 degrees if its temperature dropped below 30 degrees?

If the liquid has a freezing point of 32 degrees, it would begin to freeze when its temperature drops below 32 degrees. Therefore, if its temperature dropped below 30 degrees, the liquid would continue to freeze and solidify further.


What is 30 below celsius to degrees fahrenheit?

30 degrees below zero in Celsius is equal to -22 degrees Fahrenheit. This can be calculated using the formula: (°C x 9/5) + 32 = °F.


Is catalase destroyed at 30 degrees Celsius?

Catalase is not typically destroyed at 30 degrees Celsius but its activity may decrease compared to its optimal temperature which is around 37 degrees Celsius. The enzyme may denature at higher temperatures.


Are you more likely to swim at 30 degrees F or 30 degrees C?

You are more likely to swim at 30 degrees Celsius - it equates to 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Thirty degrees Fahrenheit is below freezing and equates to -1.1 Celsius.
