Exercise 1
Examine the graph showing the rate of reaction versus temperature for an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in a human.
a. Describe what is happening to the enzyme at around 40°C.
b. Explain why the line touches the x -axis at approximately 20°C and 45°C.
c. Average body temperature for humans is 37°C. Suggest a reason why the temperature optimum of this enzyme is greater than 37°C.
