GCSE BIOLOGY AT1: INVESTIGATING FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE BREAKDOWN OF HYDROGEN PEROXIDE BY THE ENZYME CATALYSE PLAN: Investigating the factors affecting the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide by the enzyme catalyse. AIM: The aim of this experiment is to examine the effect of the enzyme concentration (catalyse) on the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide. INTRODUCTION: This investigation is investigating the factors that affect the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide by the enzyme catalyse. I will be performing a preliminary investigation in which I will be performing 5 different experiments and taking time readings from them. Then I will do the main investigation in which I will take 15 readings. I will be taking these results and try to find an average rate and I will place this result into a graph. We will be using the acid hydrogen peroxide in this investigation with the enzyme catalyse (yeast). The equation for this experiment is: 2H2O2 2H2O + O2 HYDROGEN...
