A Plan of an Experiment to See the Effect of Varying Concentrations of Hydrogen Peroxide on Yeast I have been assigned the task of viewing the results of varying concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on yeast. I will do this by placing varying concentrations of H2O2 into a constant amount of yeast, then I will measure the amount of O2 produced (every 10 seconds) and plot a line graph for each concentration. Using the immediate gradient for the initial rate I will then use these amounts and plot another graph to show initial rate of reaction. Enzymes work as follows: Active Site = Enzyme Substrate Enzyme Substrate Enzyme Products Complex The enzyme joins with the substrate in an area called the active site ( ) this is where the enzyme works. At the active site the enzyme forms temporary bonds with the substrate these bonds hold the substrate in position while the enzyme...
