    The Effect of Light Intensity on the Rate of Oxygen Production in a Plant While Photosynthesis is Taking Place Hypothesis: I predict that as the intensity of light is increased, so would the photosynthesis. Furthermore, I predict that if the light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis will increase at a proportional rate and more oxygen will be produced and therefore the oxygen levels will increase. However, the lower the light intensity, less oxygen will be produced which would

    Longshore Drift is Taking Place Along Deal Beach on the Day of Our Visit For this aim, we measured the wave angle. To do this, I laid a protractor on the floor, and watched for about 5 minutes in which direction the waves were travelling. I would look down on the protractor, and note down the angle of the waves. I then worked out the average angle. We had to do measure the wave angle because it would show us in which direction the longshore drift (if any) was taking place, therefore resulting

    concentration be better for the experiment or a high concentration?

Which will then make the reaction taking place speed go slow, so there would be a graph with a rather slow reaction taking place. If I was to do the experiment with a high concentration the particles are crowed close together

  • The Effect of pH on Enzyme Activity

    602 Words  | 2 Pages

    enzymes function efficiently over a narrow pH range. A change in pH above or below this range reduces the rate of enzyme reaction considerably. Changes in pH lead to the breaking of the ionic bonds that hold the tertiary structure of the enzyme in place. The enzyme begins to lose its functional shape, particularly the shape of the active site, such that the substrate will no longer fit into it, the enzyme is said to be denatured. Also changes in pH affect the charges on the amino acids within
