Hands-On Labs, Inc.  Version 42-0054-00-01
Lab Report Assistant                                                                                               This document is not meant to be a substitute for a formal laboratory report. The Lab Report Assistant is simply a summary of the experiment’s questions, diagrams if needed, and data tables that should be addressed in a formal lab report. The intent is to facilitate students’ writing of lab reports by providing this information in an editable file which can be sent to an instructor.
Exercise 1: Enzyme Specificity
Observations

Observations  
 
Questions:  
A.  Graph the effect of temperature on the activity of the enzyme lactase.
B.   What happens when an enzyme is boiled? Is this effect reversible?
C.   Based on your experiment results, what is the optimal temperature for lactase function?
