Lab report: how do substrate concentration and ph affect enzyme-controlled reactionNameInstitution Date of submission IntroductionEnzymes are organic catalysts that speed up a reaction and produce an ordered, stable reaction system. Products of the reaction are formed depending on the requirement of the experiment. Each specific enzyme controls each reaction in a series of metabolic reactions.Sequence of enzyme-controlled reactions is as follows;Substrate+ enzyme=enzyme-substrate complex=enzyme+ productsBackground information: Reactions are important and necessary in various chemical and biological processes. Enzymes are used to catalyze reactions, hence reducing the time taken to complete a reaction. Enzymes were first discovered in the 18th and 19th century in the manufacture of beer. Other enzymes were later discovered during biological tests in the study of human physiological processes. Enzyme amylase is one of the enzymes facilitates the human digestion in the human gut. Objectives: The purpose of the experiment is to determine the effects of substrate concentration and pH on the initial rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. This will be...
