Effect of temperature and pH on enzymes
Biology · Secondary 4 · Hard · Effect of temperature and pH on enzymes
A student investigates how temperature affects the activity of an enzyme that digests protein. She measures the time taken for a cloudy protein solution to become clear at different temperatures.
At 30 °C, the solution clears in 8 minutes. At 40 °C, the enzyme works twice as fast. How long will the solution take to clear at 40 °C?
