Biology Coursework Aim: To investigate the effect of substrate concentration on Catalase Activity. Plan: Equipment: Catalase: The Enzyme used to release Oxygen from the hydrogen peroxide solution. The enzyme is present in potatoes/ Metal ruler: This ruler will be used to measure the length of the potato so it can be cut in to equal proportions making the experiment a fair test. Bowl: To keep the measuring cylinder submerged allowing us to measure the amount of water displaced. This will allow us to take results from the experiment. Thermometer: The thermometer will be used to determine the temperature of the water and to keep the temperature constant between each experiment allowing a fair test. Measuring cylinder: The amount of water displaced will be calculated and this will show the amount of oxygen we have in cm3 Bung with plastic tubing: The bung will be used to close off the opening and stop any oxygen escaping. The tubing will...
