Effects of temperature and pH
What this topic asks you to be able to do
- Understand that it is possible to follow the progress of an enzyme-catalysed reaction by measuring how concentrated its reactants and products are
- Investigate the way temperature and pH change enzyme activity, and describe these effects
- Explain how changing temperature and pH alters enzyme activity, using kinetic energy, shape and fit, denaturation, and how frequently effective collisions take place
