[填空题]
To study catalase enzyme activity, a student cusbux 0z 4w*s j6fn q;btg0+uu22r b5qs*x0g ;9dwg+x4 w i obpl+pzex,t a turnip root into small cubes. They measured approximately 5 g in a weighing dish, added 50 ml water and used a blender to homogenize the turnip root. The homogenate was filtered and the liquid extr +rwwb 24g5x xzs+dbpgo0q9 ,eplxi;*act was stored in a test tube at room temperature.
The turnip extract and water were added to the conical flask first. Then 3% hydrogen peroxide solution was added to the conical flask, as shown in the image above. The oxygen produced is collected over 1 minute and measured in an inverted measuring cylinder, as shown.
The student wanted to conduct an experiment to see the effect of increasing enzyme concentration on the reaction. She made up the different concentrations as shown in the table below and added 1 ml of 3% hydrogen peroxide to each.
1.Suggest why the process of grinding the turnip root and extracting the filtrate was carried out.
2.State the dependent variable.
3.Explain why the volume of water was varied, as shown.
The following graph was obtained when the student varied the substrate (hydrogen peroxide) concentration, keeping the enzyme concentration constant.
4.From the graph shown above, calculate the percentage increase in volume of oxygen gas produced when using 1% hydrogen peroxide compared to 0.5% hydrogen peroxide. %
5.Outline the reasons for the shape of the curve obtained.
The student repeated the same experiment but added an inhibitor along with the enzyme to the reaction mix. She got the following results.
6.Deduce, with an explanation, whether a competitive or non-competitive inhibitor was used in the investigation.
7.Other than the factors already mentioned, state one other factor that can lower the rate of an enzyme controlled reaction.
