Hypothesis: I predict that temperature will have an effect on the effectiveness of the enzymes. I predict that to higher the temperature, the more likely the enzyme catalysts will stop breaking down the other substances. Background Information: There are two types of enzymes: Catabolic - Breakdown These are organic catalysis Anabolic - Build up that speed up the reaction without being broken down. Other enzymes include the digestive enzymes. There are three main types of digestive enzymes are: Lipase which converts fats into fatty acids and glycerol.

These are the Benedicts' test which tests for sugars and the Iodine test which tests for starch. Enzymes are biological...
