09/01/03 GCSE Coursework: Biology James Hare Investigating the factors that affect the efficiency of the enzyme, Lipase Planning Experimental Procedure: Aim: I endeavour to primarily investigate the factors that affect the efficiency of lipase and also study in detail how the concentration of lipase affects the speed at which it can breakdown lipids in the body. Preparatory Research: Enzymes are large globular protein molecules found in plants, animals, humans, and all living things. They are necessary for the building and rebuilding of tissues and cells. Enzymes are catalysts that influence all life systems in our bodies, and are produced by living cells but are capable of acting independently. They are complex proteins that can induce chemical changes in other substances without being changed themselves. Nota Bene: Enzymes can catalyse the forward and reverse reactions equally. An enzyme is a biological catalyst produced in cells, and capable of speeding up the chemical reactions necessary for life. They...
