The effect of temperature on the activity of Amylose Question One Calculate the relative rate of reaction by finding the reciprocal of the time taken to reach the achromatic point at each different temperature. Present these results in a table, using IOB guidelines. A table to show the average time taken, for each temperature, to reach the achromatic point A table to show the relative rate of reaction Question Two Plot a graph of the relative rate of reaction against temperature. A graph that demonstrates the relationship between rate of reaction and temperature Question Three Describe the relationship between temperature and relative rate of reaction. As you can see; as the rate of reaction increases, so does the relative rate of reaction. However, once the temperature exceeds 52°c (according to me curve) the productivity of the enzyme decreases. The curve is fairly steady, with no anomalous results. Question Four Explain your results using scientific knowledge. As the solutions temperature was increased, the productivity...
