In this activity, you will study the effect of pH, temperature and lactose concentration on lactase activity. By the end of this activity, you should be able to:
design experiments to study the effects of pH, temperature, and substrate concentration on enzyme activity.
graph data related to enzyme activity.
analyze data related to enzyme activity.
complete a lab write-up summarizing and analyzing your results for the effect of temperature on lactase activity.
identify the components of the scientific method.
identify components of the substrate-enzyme-product system being studied.
