The effect of enzyme concentration and enzyme activity The purpose of the experiment * To investigate the effect of concentration of a enzyme on a substrate * To investigate enzyme activity Hypothesis I predict that as the concentration of enzyme increase the more enzyme activity will take place i.e. in this case the increase of protease enzyme will make the gelatine more runnier (break it down easier/quicker) My prediction is based on the fact that if there are more enzymes then there are more active sites. If there are more active sites then more substrate can bind to the enzymes and the substrate, in this case gelatine, can be broken down. I also predict the gelatine will become runnier as the concentration enzyme is increased. Method and Materials To carry out this experiment we used: * Funnels (same Width) * Beakers * Pepsin * pH Buffer * Stopclock * Gelatine Instructions 1. Place a funnel securely using a clamp stand, overhead a beaker 2....
