Science Coursework Planning... Aim: The aim of this experiment is to learn what happens when starch is mixed with amylase. I also intend to investigate the effects of changing one or more of the variables involved in the experiment. Key Factors: Listed below are each of the key factors featured in the experiment and the affect that each one may have upon the investigation... Temperature: The temperature of the room when the experiment is being carried out will determine the rate at which the amylase works since amylase is most efficient at body temperature, which is between 37-40?C, and less effective in more extreme conditions. This is because amylase is an enzyme, which is found inside the body; therefore it is necessary for it to be most effective in these conditions. PH Level: The optimum pH level for Amylase is approximately pH 7.5. This is the pH level of human saliva, which is the...
