Question

Consider one of the procedures where amylase and starch are reacting. If there is strong amylase activity and it is breaking down starch, then you would assign an enzyme activity level of ________.

Answer 1

Activity level of 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate the enzyme activity you might observe the amounts of starch remaining in a solution or the enzyme activity. Both of them can be done qualitatively by adding substances such as iodine to the sample, which will express, through different degrees of the blue color, the enzyme activity level. So,

no enzymatic activity ----------------> level 0

low enzymatic activity ---------------> level 1

moderate enzymatic activity ------> level 2

High enzymatic activity --------------> level 3
