Enzymes Investigation By Daisy Townsend February 2003 Planning my investigation I am in investigating the process in which enzymes break down starch into glucose. I am therefore trying to find how the amount of enzymes affects how it breaks down starch to glucose - and why. There were several variables that I considered changing (before deciding on the amount of enzyme) such as: - Temperature - Amount of starch - pH of the enzyme - pH of the starch - Ratio starch: enzyme All of these above are now factors that I will keep the same throughout the experiment - apart from the variable that I did actually decide to change, which is the amount of the enzyme used. I will do this as it needs to be a fair test and can only be so if the experiment is kept the same throughout. I have decided that I will need the following apparatus: - Test tubes x 18 - Test tube rack - Stop...
