This study investigates the optimal temperature for catalase activity in potatoes when exposed to 3% hydrogen peroxide, focusing on a temperature range of 10-60 degrees Celsius in 10-degree intervals. Group 8, comprising Dini Schatzmann, Michael Wong, and Kitty Mearns, conducted data collection and analysis to evaluate the enzyme reaction rates. The outcomes highlight the implications of temperature on enzyme efficiency and identify weaknesses in the experimental design, alongside suggested improvements for future research.

G4: Research Question Variables: Independent Dependent Controlled What is the optimal temperature between 10-60 degrees Celsius (in 10 degree intervals), for the catalase in potatoes to decompose in 3% hydrogen peroxide? Group 8: Dini Schatzmann, Michael Wong & Kitty Mearns
Analysis: Original formula: Simplified: 30 – height -30.8 -13.65
Conclusion and Evaluation • What implications can be drawn from the graph? • What's the conclusion? • What were our weaknesses and limitation • Improvements
